What do you do when your heels break in the middle of a beauty pageant? Go barefoot and slay your walk anyway, of course!

This is exactly what Armenia's Kristina Ayanian did during the Miss Grand International preliminaries on Thursday.

The beauty queen was confidently showcasing her walk and impressive figure in a blue and white bodysuit when one of her shoes suddenly gave out.

Instead of walking uncomfortably, she did what a true queen would do— remove her heels and continue with the show. She even danced around on stage like nothing happened.

Cavite's Samantha Panlilio is the Philippines' bet for the Miss Grand International 2021 crown. She hopes to be the first Filipina to win the title.

She landed on the Top 5 Best in Swimsuit fan vote round and on the Top 20 of the Best in National Costume with her "Paruparo" outfit.

The grand coronation night is on December 4 in Bangkok, Thailand.
