Phuong Oanh spoke directly about the bonus, affirming that she is not easily tempted

After being crowned Miss World Vietnam 2025, Phan Phuong Oanh quickly became a name that received a lot of attention from the public.

Not only because of the new title, the beauty born in 2003 also faced many debates around the final results as well as her journey at the contest.

In the face of conflicting opinions, the new miss chose to face frankly, clearly sharing her personal views instead of avoiding them.

Phuong Oanh said that since she was a child, she has always directed herself to a positive lifestyle, putting morality and correctness first. Therefore, when entering the term of Miss Universe, she set herself a goal to keep her image and minimize mistakes that can affect herself and those around her. The beauty shared that if something goes wrong, it's important to face it with integrity and find a way to fix it instead of avoiding it.

Phuong Oanh's journey to the crown is not a story of instant luck. At the age of 19, she tried her hand at Miss Vietnam 2022 for the first time and stopped in the top 10, and won the Beauty of the Sea award. Although she has not reached the highest position, she affirmed that she has never considered it a failure, but on the contrary, considers this a worthwhile experience in her youth. From that foundation, Phuong Oanh continued to strive to get higher achievements in the following competitions, and finally reached the prestigious crown.

One of the issues that has received a lot of attention is the cost of participating in the contest. In response to questions from the public, Phuong Oanh frankly said that most of the cost of participating in the Miss World Vietnam 2025 contest was paid by herself. Previously, the beauty used to work full-time at a technology company with a business position, with a stable income enough to cover life and accumulate. At the last stage when the savings were no longer enough, the family supported a small part and she considered it a "borrowing" to be repaid later.

In the midst of opinions that she was "cleared the way" or not really worthy of the title, Phuong Oanh did not react harshly but kept a calm attitude. She believes that the judges are the ones who follow throughout the journey and have enough grounds to make the final decision. So instead of debating, she chose to focus on herself and prove it with action in the upcoming term.

Notably, when asked about material factors - one of the temptations often seen in the entertainment environment - Phuong Oanh frankly affirmed: "I don't care how much the prize money is". According to her, the goal of participating in the contest has never been money, but an opportunity to use the title for useful activities for the community. Because she clearly identifies this goal, she believes that she is not a person who is easily tempted.

This point of view also partly explains the way Phuong Oanh views "brilliant". For her, the coronation moment is undoubtedly the most memorable milestone to date, but not the stop. The beauty believes that the journey ahead in her tenure needs to be even more brilliant, requiring continuous effort instead of sleeping on victory.

When placing herself in the context of the beauty market with many prominent faces, Phuong Oanh does not choose to compare. She believes that each miss has its own color, and the most important thing is to keep her personal identity. Focusing on herself, instead of looking at others, is a way to help her maintain psychological stability as well as long-term development orientation.

Looking back on the entire journey, it can be seen that Phuong Oanh built an image based on independence and clear orientation. From paying for the exam itself, facing the debate frankly to affirming that she is not dominated by prize money, the beauty shows a desire to pursue sustainable values instead of short-term benefits. However, in the context that the title always comes with great pressure and expectations from the public, whether she can maintain this view throughout her tenure is still something that many people continue to watch.
