According to my readings, Haylani Kuruppu of Samoa made history as the 1st Runner Up in Miss Global 2023. Additionally, Haylani is not only a social worker and fitness trainer but also has aspirations to represent Samoa in basketball. She is currently studying physiotherapy at the Australian Catholic University. She serves as an inspiration to the small island of Samoa. 😊 And also to the upcoming contestants in the world of pageantry.

To all the haters of this beautiful talented young lady! She is the first representative from Samoa ever. And won 1st runner up isn’t that amazing? Samoa for those that don’t know and maybe bad at geography, is located in the South Pacific. Given our status as a LDC, Lani not only represented Samoa but the whole pacific as well! Some solid guts yo! These competitions belong and had always been dominated by big countries! This is why this young lady deserve all the applause 👏🏾 because this is not only rare for our pacific people to achieve but especially for our very small island! Now for those still hating on her cry me a freaking river or eat a banana!

There's no hatred here in Samoa..we all so proud of our beautiful Miss Global Haylani..she's a queen in our hearts and a crown Miss Global in our eyes..I think other Pacific Islands may be haters you know coz they can't achieve anything at international level but none of us Samoans care...Lani showcasing her Samoan culture with pride that every Samoan woman can achieve anything in life.. period!!!

Congratulations Miss Samoa

I haven't had any interest in Miss Samoa pageants since the 1990's. Every year after that, I've found them quite boring UNTIL NOW! Haylani, you are the first Miss Samoa I've ever gotten behind and cheered on. You exude beauty, intelligence, kindness, smarts and love - love for people, the planet/world we live in, and pacific culture. Although you didn't win Miss GO2023... You are and will forever be the best Miss Samoa EVER! I don't forsee anyone from the pacific reaching this far in a pageantry comp in my lifetime ever again or anytime soon, which makes you VERY unique. Thank you for the hard work you and your team have put in to get this far and for putting Samoa and the culture on the map in a much more bigger scale outside of the usual sports / wrestling that most people around the world know Samoans from 😂😂

Haylani you are the people's champion...God bless you and your future endeavors. Thank you for representing Samoa. Much alofas

For this young lady from Samoa to come and i reckon first from Samoa. She opened the gate for the rest of the polynesian island women to come forward.. this world aint seen nothing yet. Much ofas Miss Samoa

She’s the best 🎉 👸🇼🇸

Thank you for representing Samoa. Well done❤

Beautiful queen

Good job to all the ladies. It was a fair pageant. Besides beauty and grace, Puerto Rico spoke with heart and wisdom dominating Samoa. Happy for Puerto Rico.😊

A remarkable accomplishment for the people of Samoa, a small island nation with a rich history of Kings and Queens. Congratulations to Mr. and Mrs. Schwenke for nurturing a daughter of exceptional beauty and humility. As parents, you must take great pride in her achievements. Let us not overlook the collective pride that the entire Samoan community shares. Our Miss Samoa has etched her name in history by securing the prestigious title of First Runner-Up at the Miss Global Pageant 2023. Faafetai I Le Atua for guiding and blessing the endeavors of our children. We extend our heartfelt gratitude for all that you have contributed to our beloved Samoa

I’ve said it all along, Miss Samoa got the sympathy vote. She couldn’t even win in the Miss Pacific Islands 2023 against Miss PNG, American Samoa, Solomon Islands and Nauru. Miss Samoa’s pageant performance repertoire hasn’t advanced since this regional competition and yet she placed 1st runner up against better competitors and a relatively more difficult pageant in Miss Global. “ I fearlessly believe” her Miss Global placing is a huge joke because if something like this is so beautiful, how come I cannot feel it? I’m seriously not “feeling” it. Faafetai lava. 😅

She gained fans from everywhere around the world because in that competition there were other very beautiful and already experienced pageant girls. Yet what? She placed high because everyone saw her. She was special and everyone felt that except you💀 your bitterness makes her people love her more. Fa😊
