Manuela Bruntraeger from Singapore is 24 years of age and stands tall at 164 cm. She is a graduate of Lasalle College of the Arts. Manuela’s father is German and her mother is a Singaporean of Portuguese descent. After the victory parade of Miss Universe Singapore 2017, the 164 cm tall beauty revealed that her height was one of the biggest challenges she faced during the competition. "As I am one of the more petite girls, I have heard the words 'short, small, tiny' along the way. But now, knowing all my hard work has paid off, I have learnt that it is okay to be fun-sized, and there is never a bad size," said Manuela.
