H’Hen Nie (second from left) was named in Miss Universe 2018 top five.

In the Question and Answer portion, the question for H’Hen Nie was “The #MeToo movement has sparked a global conversation. In response, some have said that the world has become too politically correct. Do you think the #MeToo movement has gone too far?"

"I don't think that it has gone too far. Protecting women and women's rights is the right thing to do. Women need protection and rights," she answered.

H’Hen Nie, a 25-year-old model from the Ede ethnic minority group in the Central Highlands province of Dak Lak, was crowned Miss Universe Vietnam 2017 in January.

Meanwhile, Catriona Gray from the Philippines was crowned Miss Universe 2018. Contestants from South Africa and Venezuela were the pageant’s first and second runners-up, respectively.
