The newly-crowned Miss Universe Demi-Leigh Nel-Peters just arrived in New York City and is ready to take on the world. She lays out her plans for the next year as her reign gets underway. Nel-Peters, who represented South Africa in the pageant, says she is excited to work with the many non-profits the Miss Universe organization has been partnered with over the years. She also is looking forward to growing her #Unbreakable campaign, which she started in South Africa to help empower women by teaching them self-defense. Miss Universe also discusses the sexual harassment scandals that have been rocking the entertainment and political industries. She says that these issues are not exclusive to the United States - that sexual harassment is a problem in countries all around the world. On a lighter note, Nel-Peters shows our host Baker Machado how to properly wear the Miss Universe sash and wave to onlookers. She also reveals the special reason why you should only wave with your hand, not your arm.

Supermodel Helps Build Up Communities Knocked Down by Nature
When it comes to disaster relief, it's not just about first response, it's also about the long-term response. Petra Nemvoca and David Campbell, Co-Founders of All Hands and Hearts – Smart Response, join to share how they are rebuilding communities broken down by nature. The new organization, created by a merger between the volunteer groups the two founded, will work to address the immediate and long-term needs of communities impacted by natural disaster. Nemcova, who is also a supermodel, became involved in disaster relief after surviving the 2004 Indian Ocean tsunami in Thailand, which took the life of her fiancé. A few months later, she returned to create the "Happy Hearts Fund". Since the merger, All Hands and Hearts has already built nearly 200 schools and sent over 105,000 children back to school. Nemcova also gave us a couple beauty tips. She says it's important to be happy because it radiates through you.
