For me, beauty radiates not only in our spirit, but in our hearts and the way that we conduct ourselves. Never permit someone to tell you that you’re not valuable.”

4. She Can Hold a Plank for Three Minutes

Andrea is incredibly fit and strong. In fact, according to the beauty queen, she can hold a plank for a whopping three minutes.
