Pia Wurtzbach recounted a time when she stole a lip balm from a store with her cousins, admitting that she thought it was “cool” back then.
Wurtzbach revealed doing the act in a question-and-answer game with Mutya ng Pilipinas 2010 Carla Lizardo and Binibining Pilipinas International 2014 Bianca Guidotti-Santos, as seen on their YouTube channel The Queens yesterday, April 9. The part-Q&A and part-truth-or-consequence game was inspired by the “Spill Your Guts” segment of “The Late Late Show with James Corden.”
“Mga batang-bata pa kami nito… And nag-ano kami, we got something from a store. Lip balm lang naman, ‘yung mga glittery lip balm,” Wurtzbach said.
(We were very young when this happened — we got something from a store. It was just a lip balm, a glittery lip balm.)
The Miss Universe 2015 titleholder explained how she had a misconception back then of regarding the act as a “cool thing” but stressed that she now knows better. Wurtzbach then offered her apologies to the store but its name was bleeped in the video.
“As a kid, you think it’s a cool thing especially when you do it with your friends or your cousins kasi parang nagko-connive kayong lahat tapos parang cool siya, may thrill. Pero syempre as an adult, wala na ‘no, may issue tayo d’yan,” she stated. “So I’m so sorry sa department store na [bleep] na kinuhanan ko ng lip balm.”
(As a kid, you think it’s a cool thing, especially when you do it with your friends or your cousins, because you connive with them, and it was cool and thrilling. But of course, it’s neither thrilling nor cool [to steal] as an adult. That’s already an issue. So I’m so sorry to the department store where I stole the lip balm.)
Wurtzbach was asked other intriguing questions, such as the name of a fellow beauty queen who she thinks is a clout chaser, and who is the most famous guy to send her a creepy message. She declined to answer the said questions and took the consequence challenge for those instead.
Meanwhile, Wurtzbach recently set up her own food business “Pia’s Kitchen,” which will offer various cuisines from around the world. It will start with Japanese cuisine but its menu will change throughout the year. JB
