Pia Wurtzbach vs. Heart Evangelista
PIA WURTZBACH – The Miss Universe 2015 posted a video on Instagram wearing a serpent necklace she endorses, captioning it “an enchantment.”
Filipino designers Michael Cinco and Mark Bumgarner praised Pia’s post with comments like “Class” and “THIS.IS.FIREEEEE.” Netizens quickly speculated that Pia’s post might be a subtle jab at actress and socialite Heart Evangelista.
Previously, Heart Evangelista caused a buzz after adorning her pet dog Panda with a luxury necklace, sparking speculation of a subtle rivalry between the two. Some comments even suggested that Heart’s decision to let her dog wear the necklace was out of bitterness after she was not chosen as the brand’s endorser, a role given to Pia.
In response to the growing buzz, Heart Evangelista addressed the issue in an interview with Nelson Canlas. She clarified that the necklace is hers and not borrowed, asserting her freedom to do what she wants with it, even letting her dog wear it. Despite her clarification, speculation continued about whether this was a dig at Pia, the official endorser of the necklace.
As of now, Heart’s camp has not made any further comments on the matter. Netizens remain divided, with some showing support for Pia and others questioning the motives behind Heart’s actions.
