Career
After her crowning as Binibining Pilipinas World 2007, one columnist allegedly questioned her qualifications for not being a high school graduate, which is one of the requirements for joining the pageant.
A former Binibining Pilipinas World titleholder and Miss World 1993 Second Runner-up, Ruffa Gutierrez, defended Wilson in a television interview, saying that the latter was chosen because she is tall, stunningly pretty and smart.
She participated in the 57th Miss World pageant in Sanya, China in December 2007 but was unplaced.
As an actress, before entering into beauty pageants, she made her first appearance in Kakabakaba Adventures.
She then played minor roles in GMA shows including Darna, Encantadia, Asian Treasures, Una Kang Naging Akin and Joaquin Bordado, until in 2009 she reprised the major role of Babaeng Linta in the 2009 Darna TV series, which starred Marian Rivera.
Darna was Wilson's first time playing a major villain; she previously played a minor villain in the 2005 version of Darna, which starred Angel Locsin.
Aside from acting, she also hosted Q-11's Fit & Fab, with fellow beauty pageant titleholder Anna Theresa Licaros in season one and fellow MTV VJ Kat Alano in season two.
She said she hopes to make her mark in the Asian modeling scene, before eventually trying her luck in Europe.
In 2016, Wilson won the fifth season of The Amazing Race Asia with Parul Shah.
