In the final question and answer portion, the three contestants were asked by Natalie Glebova: "Every morning when you wake up, what do you think is the meaning of life? What are you living for?" Russo answered:

If I have to sum it up in one word: freedom. Freedom, being able to travel where you want to, be who you want, do what you want, be the woman you are meant to be, follow your dreams.... To be able to achieve the knowledge, not only academically but the knowledge of culture, of emotional intelligence, to be able to reach your full potential.^[9]
