Meza who was asked to address the topic of changing beauty standards during the final statement round, said “We live in a society that more and more is more advanced and as we have advanced as a society, we have advanced with stereotypes.

Never permit someone to tell you that you are not valuable.”
Andrea Meza Was Also Asked About How She Would Have Handled COVID-19 During The Final Q&A
During the final question round, she was asked how she would have handled the COVID-19 pandemic to which she responded, “I believe there is not a perfect way to handle this hard situation such as COVID-19. However, I believe that what I would have done was create the lockdown even before everything was that big because we lost so many lives and we cannot afford that, continuing, “We have to take care of our people. That’s why I would have taken care of them since the beginning.”
