During the final round, all the finalists were asked the same question and that determined the winner.

The question that was asked to Miss Universe 2017 was, What quality in yourself are you most proud of and how will make you apply that to your time as Miss Universe?” The participant from Jamaica, Davina Bennett, replied, ”It is my drive and determination. I am part of a foundation that helps deaf people. This platform will be a great platform to help people.”

The contestant from Colombia, Laura Gonzalez, responded, ”I am incredibly passionate about everything I do. I put my full self in every situation. I have done this as an actress, as Miss Colombia and will now do the same if I win Miss Universe.”
