In April 2024, Victoria Yao was crowned Little Miss Canada Nation Universe 2024, a title that she carries with grace, charm, and wisdom beyond her years. At such a young age, Victoria is already making waves in the modeling and pageantry world, having started her journey in 2022.
Her inspiration? A loving and supportive mother who has always encouraged her to pursue her passions.
Victoria’s foray into modeling began when her mother discovered a model class that piqued Victoria’s interest. “I love to dress up,” she says with a smile. “So I said yes to the classes. They were very fun, and I loved them. Sometimes, they even requested certain outfits for specific classes.” This early experience not only honed her modeling skills but also ignited a passion that continues to burn brightly.
While Victoria’s modeling journey has been filled with excitement, it’s her mother who remains her greatest role model. “The person I look up to the most is my mom because she is strong, kind, and hardworking,” Victoria shares. “She always encourages me to do a lot and always reminds me that I can do anything. She is so supportive and is always there for me.” It’s clear that this strong bond between mother and daughter is a cornerstone of Victoria’s confidence and determination.
Outside of modeling, Victoria is a dedicated student with a particular fondness for science. “My favourite school subject is science because you can explore and see a lot of cool things,” she says. Her curiosity and love for exploration are traits that will undoubtedly serve her well, whether in a lab or on a film set—where she dreams of being in the future.
When asked about her future ambitions, Victoria’s eyes light up. “I would like to be an actress because I love acting,” she explains. “Acting is fun because during shoots, you can make lots of new friends, and some scenes can be super fun and hilarious. My favourite thing about acting is that you can voice characters.” It’s easy to imagine Victoria’s vibrant personality bringing characters to life, just as she does on the runway.
Victoria is also keenly aware of the stereotypes surrounding modeling and pageantry, and she’s determined to challenge them. “One stereotype I would like to break is that only pretty people can be models, which isn’t true because everyone is pretty in their way. It’s not about the outside; it’s about what’s on the inside.” This message is especially powerful coming from someone so young, yet so attuned to the importance of inner beauty.
What sets Victoria apart is not just her ambition but her unique talents and perspective. “Something different about me is that I like to play the piano and sing, I like to read, I like art, I can sometimes be very independent in work, I can understand a lot, and I’m a very good listener,” she says.
This blend of creativity, intelligence, and empathy makes Victoria a standout not only in pageantry but in every area she sets her mind to.
As Victoria continues to pursue her goals—like reading more to keep learning, even outside of school, and becoming less forgetful—she does so with a maturity that’s rare for her age. She’s already trilingual, speaking English, French, and Chinese, and even notes with a touch of humour that her hair can now grow very quickly, adding another layer to her uniqueness.
Victoria Yao is a young girl with a bright future ahead of her, full of dreams and determination. Whether she’s gracing the runway, starring on the big screen, or simply exploring the wonders of science, there’s no doubt that she will continue to inspire those around her with her strength, kindness, and unwavering belief that true beauty comes from within.
