YOU CAN HELP your favorite candidate win Miss Universe 2015.

For the first time in its history, the pageant allowed its fans worldwide to be the judge through online voting during the LIVE telecast from 7-10pm ET on Sunday, December 20 (8-11am on Monday, December 21 in the Philippines).

“Fans around the world will have the opportunity to cast their votes for each contestant during the competitions. The worldwide score will help determine which contestant will be crowned the next Miss Universe,” the organization’s website states.

But remember this, folks: voting is real-time. That means Filipinos can only vote during the LIVE broadcast on FOX or through live streaming, as ABS-CBN will start an hour late.

The Philippines’ bet, Pia Alonzo Wurtzbach, emphasized this in her recent Instagram post as well.

“Yung votes nyo po papasok habang ako po ang naglalakad sa stage. Real time po yung votes. You can watch the pageant thru online streaming or cable TV. Delayed telecast po kasi sa ABS CBN at hindi po papasok ang votes pag tapos na po akong maglakad,” Wurtzbach explained in Filipino.

In the same post, Wurtzbach, seen doing the famous “pabebe wave,” called for support from the fans of the hit Eat Bulaga love team AlDub (Alden Richards and Maine Mendoza).

“Hello #AldubNation pwede ko po bang mahingi ang tulong nyo para sa laban ko sa Miss Universe?” the 26-year-old said, tagging her childhood friend and noontime show host Pauleen Luna and co-host Paolo Ballesteros of the trio JoWaPao.
