I am a Filipino and I don't have any problem with Nicaragua winning the pageant. She deserved the crown. The moment she came out off the stage flipping and flapping her wings like a butterfly ... I knew we had the winner. When Michelle was not included in the Top 5, most of us had moved on. But when
that infamous post from Miss Universe El Salvador became viral ... that ignited the speculations and besmirched the success of the show.
We are not sore losers ... we only want answers to what the F... (sorry for the choice of word) is going on. And when Miss Universe ORG becomes silent ... and instead of facing the inquiries head-on... they retreated and went back to hiding. I tell you ... if nobody makes any statement ...it is tantamount to
an admission of guilt.
And what's Anne's business talking to Michelle like that telling her to move on. If she can't face the camera and explain the viral post ... she has the nerve to tell Michelle to move on in front of cameras ... when Michelle already accepted her fate when she said it was not her destiny. Michelle was not complaining at all. I felt too small being pooh-poohed by no less than the owner of the organization ... advising her what to do ... or what to feel. It is easier said than done Anne if you know what I mean.
Moving on is hard when there are questions hanging on the horizon ... questions that will remain questions until Anne addresses them. If the whole world decides to move on and ignore this fiasco ... there is no CLOSURE. And Anne could not fault Filipinos if they continued drum-beating their sins of omission and commission.
I repeat ... Filipinos thought Nicaragua was a great choice ... we are just wondering what could have been if Michelle had been given the chance to hold the microphone since Miss U is looking for a global ambassador with strong communication skills.
