Former Miss Universe titleholder Pia Wurtzbach indulged her Instagram followers in a "True or False" Q&A session on Wednesday night, January 20, 2021.
The 31-year-old actress-beauty queen took to her Instagram Stories to respond to questions that ranged from food to fashion and even her relationship with her boyfriend Jeremy Jauncey.
She also talked about dealing with insecurities.
In one of her stories, the beauty queen-actress admitted, "I think most of the time, I am pretty confident, but there are days na siyempre, alam mo iyon, iyong medyo down ka, na hindi ka rin masyadong sure.
"Normal lang naman iyon."
Another fan asked the former Miss Universe to elaborate more on her insecurities.
Pia resumed, "That's normal. Everybody has insecurities. There are days na hindi tayo sure sa sarili natin. Parang dina-doubt natin iyong sarili natin or parang hindi tayo confident. That's for everyone."
In particular, Pia admitted that there was a time she felt self-conscious about her body and being busty.
She revealed, "Honestly, siyempre, nung bata ako na-insecure talaga ako sa katawan ko, especially dito [sa dibdib] kasi siyempre, inaasar ako sa school, ganyan, nahihiya ako.
"Pero as I got older I learned how to be more confident."

This revelation prompted one Instagram follower to ask: has she considered undergoing a breast-reduction procedure?
Pia said yes, but was grateful she did not push through with it.
"There was a time when I was much younger na I was thinking about it. But then hindi ko siya tinuloy kasi nalaman ko na malaki iyong mga scars na maiiwan niya, so buti na lang."
In the text that accompanied her video, Pia encouraged her fans and followers to be more comfortable with their bodies.
She wrote (published as is): "I also realized na di ako dapat mag pa apekto sa mga sinasabi ng ibang tao.. so I accepted myself nalang. Be confident with your bodies! I'm glad I didn't let my insecurities get to me."
