@@lauralarrabee7870 She’s mostly problematic because she changed everything down to the iconic symbol and sash font for Miss Universe within a year!?! I get crown styles but when you start messing with the MU symbol, sash font styles, and now rules that’s when you’ve crossed the line!! Like Miss Universe is called “MISS” Universe for a reason 🤦🏽♀️
"Messy" is an understatement. More like TUMULTUOUS. The new "management" is driving everyone nuts! I am not sorry for speaking out my mind because MUO has NEVER been this rocky-- even during the Harold Glasser era, Trump era, and IMG era.
I’d honestly donate to a gofundme to have someone not narcissistic who has true passion for pageantry to run it. Paula’s run wasn’t one without controversy, but the support she has gotten after this backlash, I think, speaks to her character and integrity. Consequently, the lack thereof for Ann also speaks volumes.
Team Paula! I’m gonna let her resume and lack of controversy speak for her. Anne has been nothing but a typhoon of drama and scandal - not even Trump can outdrama her. She’s brought so much disrepute to this once prestigious institution.
Miss Universe is getting more exciting to follow along with this drama than the pageant itself nowadays.... Looking forward to seeing more developments on this one. 😅
Dani, I mean it within my heart but please replace Khun Anne in Miss Universe and bring Paula Shugart back. We want Miss Universe to be prestigious and elegant again with your management. (yes that is right, your management. Dani Walker for Miss Universe ownership)
Hi Dani. I was very hopeful that you would put out a video on this unbelievable craziness. Your summary was very well thought out and easy to follow. I really appreciated hearing your thoughts. It is so very disappointing to see the top leaders/owners etc. acting in a fashion that completely goes against “transformational leadership”. And it’s very difficult to reframe from being judgemental and taking sides. I sincerely hope that full transparency and then restoration and or restitution come quickly before any more damage is done to the world of pageantry. And the contestants in particular. Thank you Dani for always delivering information like this in a non-bias way. Very professional. Cheers RAYLENE
To be fair, I don't think Anne would be accusing Paula with no proof or just out of spite, especially since she thinks of herself as a woman who knows a lot of business. Defaming Paula baselessly would be shooting herself in the foot. I hope to see some evidence regarding her claims so I can truly back her up. I am skeptical to take either side, because while Paula is a seasoned veteran by this point with decades of experience, there have also been several scandals during her years that would line up perfectly with what Anne has to say. But until Anne shows some receipts, I cannot take her side.
That's what makes this confusing to me. You'd need proof. But publicly making allegations could expose Anne to legal proceedings. So it makes you wonder why the statement would be made at all. I'm very skeptical of either side as well. I think there's just so much we don't know. And you're right, Anne needs receipts for these claims.
@@DaniWalker It's so fascinating to me as to why she would get so ahead of herself and publicly announce this without any major argument, it's truly an appaling thing to do. It wouldn't be a good strategy to speak up baselessly, she must have something under her sleeve.
Of course, Dani, Paula should speak to clean her name out of this mess, especially since these allegations aren't true. Paula has been a woman of integrity and always will be. The universe knows that. And I'm with Paula's fence to this matter.
U are right Dani. They should manage the solve their feud behind doors and let's focus on the contestants and the titleholder activities. I though by shifting out Miss USA & MTU into different organization/leadership, MUO would have more focus on the agenda and plans of the miss universe. However the split has led into chaos and it's all messy... The MUO had always been managed by American companies, so why didn’t sell its franchise to another company within the country
Dani!!!! I am shocked to see that Miss Diva lost Miss Universe franchise. I am so worried about it. Please make a video on that. I am concerned about the new organisation because they dont have much experience for big pageants like Miss universe. So shocked i still can't believe it.
Recap Anne's message directly from Thai.. she said she found out when she got off the plane in New Orleans that Thailand didn't place in top 16, which is strange 'cause that would mean they judged the 16 finalists before the closed door interviews and prelims? That would be completely unfair for all the contestants, what was the judging criteria in that case to determine the finalists? I don't know the truth behind any of these allegations so I won't judge but will wait to see how it all unfolds
So she is saying that the top 16 was already picked before even the preliminaries happened? This is a serious charge as Khun Anne should have proof before making such claims. On the other hand, as the owner, she had every right to discard the list and have the preliminaries determine the semi-finalists.
@@PungiFungi Anne claims that when she disputed the 'two aunties' informed her that EY had already entered the results and nothing can be changed.. There is clear evidence from photos and clips though that Anne did arrive in New Orleans prior to prelims I wish we can see clear evidence in all this as well as it would be a completely unfair process.. there would be no point having closed interviews or prelims in that case and puts the whole MU credibility down the drain.
I’m Thai…and I feel incredibly embarrassed 😔😔The statement is too dramatic and way too personal. Nothing is wrong with being a boss and portray yourself so fiercely but you cant be a good leader without having decent manners.
This reminds me a bit of the Miss America drama that happened a few years ago. Regardless, this is not good at all and I fear for the stability of the organizations overall..
Dani, some plants and flowers would do great in your apartment., I can imagine a vase right in that column beside your refrigerator....dracaena Janet Craig, Alocasia jade milly or a philodendron rojo Congo would look nice.
There was plenty of controversy under Paula. Just look at all the drama under Chrystal Stewart's direction of USA and all the sexual allegations against her husband.

@@margaretcarpenter-dove6327 I have no issue with evolving, but after the way it was done, it became chaos for a while. You can still advance or evolve without forgetting where you started.
First, Dani, you look soooo beautiful in this video. Second, I actually think the claim that the contestants (that make it to the final) are chosen prior the main competition is true, even maybe the winner or last two standing on the stage holding hands. But it's not a bribery, nobody is paying for that (again I think). These women are being observed (after they win the national title) carefully by MUO. MUO check their bio, social media, advocacy, it is so easy to find all information nowadays. Then when it comes to the competition, they also have to deliver and those who are prepared usually do. Again no bribery there. At the end of the day MUO is an employer looking for the best candidate to do the job of Miss Universe and they have the right to choose (as any other employer) the best representative. Anne is a business woman, she doesn't have a clue (in my opinion) what that job requires. As Paula would say:"It's one woman's destiny."
Thank you so much! I can remember when I competed for USA that there's a clause that says judges, MUO and it's members select the semi finalists. As contestants we all agree that regardless of score, we can be bumped in or out of a semi final.
Khne Anne robbed the puteri Indonesia franchise for miss universe then now it snatch the franchise of Miss universe from Miss Diva India. Feeling very bad for miss Diva org . Dani please make video on the new franchise of Miss universe India which is now under the directorship of nikil Anand. He is also the national director of Miss grand India. Now he has both the franchise of Miss universe and miss grand International.But I am glad that there will separate pageant competition for both Miss universe India and miss grand International India.Dani please make the video 🙏 on the new franchise of Miss universe India please 🥺
Dani have you seen the leaked footage with the Ann her team and Mexicos new organization ? It’s all over the Mexico news someone recorded the meeting and they are talking about how the winners will be girls with most follows and not based on how they perform from what I heard
Anne J made me anxious of our Filipina beauty queens competing this year for MUPh. Hope whoever wins this year will never be wasted if she becomes Ms. U in Mexico. I AM FOR PAULA. Classy! I hope Shamcey Supsup do the same way with MU Netherlands. Boycott Ms U until the new director resigned
I stand for Paula Shugart will all her work and dedication for the prestigious high level of MU ...the owner of MU 50v% sale to partnership...for all scandal MU 2023 WE all known bankruptcy winner 2022 the owner he doesn't know how to handle of this business beauty pageant as you can see no US Products endorsement since he JKN owner Handle the MU ...dishonest, discreet winner scandal even put in the MU organisation of Nicaragua mother and daughter that they're jailed in Nicaragua before trow out of there country in Nicaragua they're part of activist against government together with the winner MU 2023 scandalous..
Paula’s legacy was an unprecedented period of two decades in which the powerhouses had a monopoly on the MU crown, something that had never happened until she was in charge. I definitely think favors were given.
There was nothing wrong said in this video n everything that was said is true. Someone said messy is an understatement and i agree. MUO is totally ruined
Talking about losing the franchise, UniMedia, who was holding the national pageant for Miss Universe Vietnam up to 2022, also lost the MU franchise in 2023. Therefore the national competition was held by a different company/organization in 2023. Looks like this was the common theme for many other countries as well 🤔
The actual thing she post in Thai is that when she arrive before interview and prelims, the top 15 have already been chosen. Yes she actually specify in her post in Thai that there is no Thailand.
As someone who has been a miss universe fan for over a decade, I honestly don’t even want to follow pageantry anymore after Anne bought it out she’s too much drama and is doing too much mischievous things with it. It’s such a turn off. I just want to enjoy pageantry without drama
Miss Thailand Universe 2022, I would been shocked if she made the top 20. I feel she was not strong, and I said that all over social media platforms. Ann doesn’t know what she’s talking about
Honestly I'm not sure what to say. There's been too much MUO news lately. I wish we could get one year where there's no leadership change, no new rules or scandals.
Like some of these comments have shared.... if senior representatives start stepping down back to back, something isn't right. Think about this, some of these women had worked for MUO for DECADES!!!!!
Hell yeah Paula should’ve stood up for herself. anyone with nothing to hide or lose will call out BS when they see it and not let anyone defame their character!!!! good for paula!!! she will not be played with
The organization is slowly diminishing it's reputation it's on the verge of degradation too.Im sad it's no longer the way it used to😢😢😢😢 i can relate to Paula and its not the money sad to know the owner said something on that.
I love Dani Walker ....Paula invested all time and effort and hardwork for 25 years and Miss Universe was wonderful with Paula... Please send the Thai man in jail.
It's messy but perhaps there's a tiny bit truth of the allegation. In hindsight, it might not be Paula per se, but during the "You Know Who" era, some placements were really questionable.
The mere fact that everyone is leaving MUO, there must be something going on and smells 'fishy' to that organization. If no one resigns, as Anne would have claimed it, if she fired every important people within that organization, then Anne wants to change the MUO. The legacy of MUO, the glory days, has started to vanish thanks to Anne. So sad :(
3:23 Could you please share your opinion on whether the statement made during the 2022 Miss Universe at New Orleans suggests that Philippines' Celeste Cortesi was not chosen by the judges as one of the Top 16 Semi-Finalists right from the beginning, which might have resulted in breaking the winning streak? Also, do you think that it's possible that Philippines' MMD was removed from the Miss Universe 2023 Top 5 because she was replaced by the representative from a favored country last year?
It is messy and I am also worried about the Miss Universe organization. These past years there's only drama and controversy surrounding Miss Universe. This is our most beloved pageant and I hope they can resolve the issues peacefully.
My comments are keep deleted right now. Did I say something that you don't agree with? This is my point of view as a non-powerhouse country's pageant fan. MUO was an American pageant organization, and so there are a lot of American winners and there was FAVORITISM. (USA, Latin countries in general, Philippines, India, etc) Personally, I did not like when MUO overlooked non-powerhouse countries' stunning contestants who have amazing catwalk skill and intelligence.They all deserves to be placed and even win. But Paula's MUO didn't let them to be placed and win. But Anne used to say "No more Philippines, but Thailand please!", this is not what pageant organization owners should say. I'm tired of those messy controversies. My point is, when Miss Universe going to be fair, not controversial, and the most prestigious pageant of the world?
But is it fair to unplaced the contestant from powerhouse countries even if they are most prepared just to give placement to non powerhouse countries ,, certain countries are placing almost every year because they are sending extremely well prepared contestant every year say for example Venezuela USA india SA Philippine PR Colombia placed quite good if not every year but this countries always send that level of prepared contestant and when they not they also get unplaced
@@bhavikpatel8355Miss Universe is powerhouse countries' own pageant, then why MUO keep want non-powerhouse countries to compete their pageant? Yes, powerhouse countries' queens, they're most prepared and have a lot of fans support, but MUO always give favor to those sash power. They ALWAYS invited powerhouse queens to specific event during pageant season, and neglected rest of contestants. Underdog's victory was very rare. So, do you want to say this is FAIR?
Please create a review video for Miss World 2023, which is currently taking place in India. Could you share your top 20 picks and thoughts on the contestants' photoshoots? Sending hugs!
There is a lot to prove.. May b there was a deep culture like think in mu that the new owner can't take . Also - there is not many shocking placements in top 20 in mu2023 like previous years. Many of them were kind of expected. - in 2021 miss usa made into the top10 although she had only some days to prepare. I'm not saying she didn't deserve or have bad speaking skills. But now people having a mentality to always put usa in their prediction. - in mu2023 miss usa was very strong and great speaker . I was rooting for her but shocked that she didn't make it into the top 10. - i think for me when it comes to winner , mu is not rigged. Cuz all the winners are best from there batch. Sry for bad English 🤭 😊❤🙏🙂
I do believe Paula was doing corrupt things. Ann wouldn't have said so publicity without proof. I also do believe that their was a clash of egos. Paula is used to being in charge under both Trump and IMG. So when Ann came along as a hands on owner who wants to be fully involved it made Paula uncomfortable. She knew things wouldn't be the same.
Anne is perfect owner for miss universe rather than pre-plan miss universe we have to see before anne ❤❤ we always see some greats contestants doesn't make semi final but this miss universe ❤❤❤
"Chaos" reigns in the Universe. Again, Anne J is proving toxic to the MU brand - and it's only February! AJ is the wrong person to steward the once esteemed MU legacy. Paula is right to speak out. I do hope she proceeds with her Defamation suit. It's going to be the most glittering, beautiful and glamorous witness lineup in HERSTORY!
The moment when Ann beccame the owner I knew it......I don't understand why Women needs a new owner who transform from him to her...... Taking away the niche of women who have been fighting for their rights and voicing out through various means and pageantry is one of them...... I am Team Paula here ❤❤❤
Paula has been in the industry for years some of you might not know she was a Associate director for Star Search and is well connected in Hollywood. I can imagen she knows some good lawyers and let's not forget she was able to work under the former President and deal with him so for her to respond to Ann I take that as a warning for Ann to Back up and Zip it unless She wants to go toe to toe. Something tells me We are Not aware of some major events happening and for Rocha to pay 16 Million Dollars tells me Telemundo and NBC still have a stake in the pageant since the ratings were record breaking in those markets
Even Miss Philippines didnt made it to top 16, but his only concerned is about his fellow Thai who didnt make it to the semifinals. With that mindset you can tell that his a biased. We know whos telling the truth, why speak now when you're so silent after the pageant? 😂
@@PungiFungi there's a lot of front runners who didnt made it into the semifinals I just mentioned Miss Philippines as an example. What Im bothering about is hes the owner of the Miss Universe now but when you look at his post he didnt even mentioned about other girls who was rigged that year during the competition. He mentioned only about Thailand not being included into top 16, that is why Miss Thailand had an award as a token of being unplaced. Girl if you dont know how to comprehend my comment please STFU.
The moment I heard Miss Universe Organization will be bought by a Thai owner, I knew things will get messy from there on out. I also can smell something fishy will happen in the future after the 2023 edition. And poof, the leaked video came out. MUO is a sinking ship. And I won't be so surprised if things get a little more chaotic moving forward.
following the pageant for such a long time, it is clear that the organization is struggling to stay relevant. but i mean, it is hard to balance the profit gains, the expectations of sponsors and stakeholders, while ensuring the integrity of the organization to offer a platform for aspiring young women. from trump to img to now jkn, these players are obviously looking at the profitability. on the flipside, paula has stayed really true to the core of her beliefs. i don't think she has anything to be afraid of in these accusations as her pedigree will speak for itself.
Paula has served MUO for 26 years and her integrity is never a question vs Anne who just acquired it in 2022. 🤷♂️

I stand for Paula Shugart will all her work and dedication for the prestigious high level of MU ...the owner of MU 50v% sale to partnership...for all scandal MU 2023 WE all known bankruptcy winner 2022 the owner he doesn't know how to handle of this business beauty pageant as you can see no US Products endorsement since he JKN owner Handle the MU ...dishonest, discreet winner scandal even put in the MU organisation of Nicaragua mother and daughter that they're jailed in Nicaragua before trow out of there country in Nicaragua they're part of activist against government together with the winner MU 2023 scandalous..
I love your hair in this!
Thank you so much!
You should cover the Miss Philippines Universe pageant
Paula’s legacy was an unprecedented period of two decades in which the powerhouses had a monopoly on the MU crown, something that had never happened until she was in charge. I definitely think favors were given.
I agree with you 💯 I couldn't wait until Paula finally retired. There were a lot of questionable placings and winners while she was president.
@@franciscobautista4279 Khun Anne could've used the Trump picks option to get Miss Thailand in the semis but she didn't.
those powerhouses keep placing bc they are sending QUALITY CANDIDATES. periodt
When Ann took over, I was waiting for her to get rid of previous workers and put in people she wanted. Just an opinion. Its her business to run.
true
Good luck to her business..😂😂
Be careful, Dani! You just got unblocked from Miss USA... Anne is gonna block you from Miss Universe!!🤣
🙈 I hope not
True 😅
There was nothing wrong said in this video n everything that was said is true. Someone said messy is an understatement and i agree. MUO is totally ruined
Well, that is not a problem. There are words called "multiple anonymous accounts". Easy peasy! Lemon squeezy! 😆
Talking about losing the franchise, UniMedia, who was holding the national pageant for Miss Universe Vietnam up to 2022, also lost the MU franchise in 2023. Therefore the national competition was held by a different company/organization in 2023. Looks like this was the common theme for many other countries as well 🤔
We want Dani to take over Miss Universe ❤
Love your hair here❤
Thank you very much!!!
The actual thing she post in Thai is that when she arrive before interview and prelims, the top 15 have already been chosen. Yes she actually specify in her post in Thai that there is no Thailand.
As someone who has been a miss universe fan for over a decade, I honestly don’t even want to follow pageantry anymore after Anne bought it out she’s too much drama and is doing too much mischievous things with it. It’s such a turn off.
I just want to enjoy pageantry without drama
I’d also like to enjoy it without drama 🙏🏼
Have you seen the news that Miss Divia is no longer the licence holder for universe India!
I found out from comments on this episode :(
Miss Thailand Universe 2022, I would been shocked if she made the top 20. I feel she was not strong, and I said that all over social media platforms. Ann doesn’t know what she’s talking about
Gogogo paula. You are the true epetomy of MUO leader you dont deserved to be treated that way. Hope you will win that case.
I’ve been dying to hear your thoughts on this. It’s been a disaster since Anne took over and I’m afraid the org won’t survive her.
Honestly I'm not sure what to say. There's been too much MUO news lately. I wish we could get one year where there's no leadership change, no new rules or scandals.
Like some of these comments have shared.... if senior representatives start stepping down back to back, something isn't right. Think about this, some of these women had worked for MUO for DECADES!!!!!
I agree, when there's a mass exodus it's usually an indicator of something else going on behind the scenes.
Hell yeah Paula should’ve stood up for herself. anyone with nothing to hide or lose will call out BS when they see it and not let anyone defame their character!!!! good for paula!!! she will not be played with
The organization is slowly diminishing it's reputation it's on the verge of degradation too.Im sad it's no longer the way it used to😢😢😢😢 i can relate to Paula and its not the money sad to know the owner said something on that.
I love Dani Walker ....Paula invested all time and effort and hardwork for 25 years and Miss Universe was wonderful with Paula... Please send the Thai man in jail.
It's messy but perhaps there's a tiny bit truth of the allegation. In hindsight, it might not be Paula per se, but during the "You Know Who" era, some placements were really questionable.
The mere fact that everyone is leaving MUO, there must be something going on and smells 'fishy' to that organization. If no one resigns, as Anne would have claimed it, if she fired every important people within that organization, then Anne wants to change the MUO. The legacy of MUO, the glory days, has started to vanish thanks to Anne. So sad :(
3:23 Could you please share your opinion on whether the statement made during the 2022 Miss Universe at New Orleans suggests that Philippines' Celeste Cortesi was not chosen by the judges as one of the Top 16 Semi-Finalists right from the beginning, which might have resulted in breaking the winning streak?
Also, do you think that it's possible that Philippines' MMD was removed from the Miss Universe 2023 Top 5 because she was replaced by the representative from a favored country last year?
It is messy and I am also worried about the Miss Universe organization. These past years there's only drama and controversy surrounding Miss Universe. This is our most beloved pageant and I hope they can resolve the issues peacefully.
We go so hard for the girls during miss universe season, only to witness their lacklustre reign due to poor and messy management! This needs to end
:( Makes me sad, they need a great year!
My comments are keep deleted right now. Did I say something that you don't agree with? This is my point of view as a non-powerhouse country's pageant fan.
MUO was an American pageant organization, and so there are a lot of American winners and there was FAVORITISM. (USA, Latin countries in general, Philippines, India, etc) Personally, I did not like when MUO overlooked non-powerhouse countries' stunning contestants who have amazing catwalk skill and intelligence.They all deserves to be placed and even win. But Paula's MUO didn't let them to be placed and win. But Anne used to say "No more Philippines, but Thailand please!", this is not what pageant organization owners should say.
I'm tired of those messy controversies. My point is, when Miss Universe going to be fair, not controversial, and the most prestigious pageant of the world?
But is it fair to unplaced the contestant from powerhouse countries even if they are most prepared just to give placement to non powerhouse countries ,, certain countries are placing almost every year because they are sending extremely well prepared contestant every year say for example Venezuela USA india SA Philippine
PR Colombia placed quite good if not every year but this countries always send that level of prepared contestant and when they not they also get unplaced
right@@bhavikpatel8355
@@bhavikpatel8355Miss Universe is powerhouse countries' own pageant, then why MUO keep want non-powerhouse countries to compete their pageant?
Yes, powerhouse countries' queens, they're most prepared and have a lot of fans support, but MUO always give favor to those sash power. They ALWAYS invited powerhouse queens to specific event during pageant season, and neglected rest of contestants. Underdog's victory was very rare.
So, do you want to say this is FAIR?
In terms of fairness Miss World is the best!
@@2005ZION not really.
Please create a review video for Miss World 2023, which is currently taking place in India. Could you share your top 20 picks and thoughts on the contestants' photoshoots? Sending hugs!
WE SUPPORT PAULA SHUGART ALL THE WAY🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉
From malaysia team Paula
Agreed. Messy. A lot of drama. I can't wait to watch your review of the MUPH 2024 delegates' official headshots
There is a lot to prove..
May b there was a deep culture like think in mu that the new owner can't take .
Also
- there is not many shocking placements in top 20 in mu2023 like previous years. Many of them were kind of expected.
- in 2021 miss usa made into the top10 although she had only some days to prepare. I'm not saying she didn't deserve or have bad speaking skills. But now people having a mentality to always put usa in their prediction.
- in mu2023 miss usa was very strong and great speaker . I was rooting for her but shocked that she didn't make it into the top 10.
- i think for me when it comes to winner , mu is not rigged. Cuz all the winners are best from there batch.
Sry for bad English 🤭
😊❤🙏🙂
The latest allegations of a former MU employee, posted by Critical Beauty, are truly shocking. You may create a video about that topic.
As an OG miss universe fan . This is very much unfortunate . I pray for miss universe organisation is properly settled
Miss Diva was also Dropped today, no more Diva girl for universe and that's horrendous!!!!!!
I do believe Paula was doing corrupt things. Ann wouldn't have said so publicity without proof. I also do believe that their was a clash of egos. Paula is used to being in charge under both Trump and IMG. So when Ann came along as a hands on owner who wants to be fully involved it made Paula uncomfortable. She knew things wouldn't be the same.
Anne is perfect owner for miss universe rather than pre-plan miss universe we have to see before anne ❤❤ we always see some greats contestants doesn't make semi final but this miss universe ❤❤❤
No, she is not! wake up!
@@LifeOdysseyMotivation corruption corruption corruption corruption corruption wake up!!!!!!
Lol there is no such thing as perfect owner...
@@Rhetzelle that guy has a reverse psychology. 😆
"Chaos" reigns in the Universe.
Again, Anne J is proving toxic to the MU brand - and it's only February! AJ is the wrong person to steward the once esteemed MU legacy. Paula is right to speak out. I do hope she proceeds with her Defamation suit. It's going to be the most glittering, beautiful and glamorous witness lineup in HERSTORY!
For now,we can only speculate. We'll only know the truth if they take it to court.
I’m very curious if things will get that far. Many things settle outside of court and I really don’t hope it goes that far. 😥
@@DaniWalker that would be a bloodbath if things really get that far.
I started to see the downfall of Miss Universe brand. a lot of MU franchise holder either pulled out or being terminated.
The moment when Ann beccame the owner I knew it......I don't understand why Women needs a new owner who transform from him to her...... Taking away the niche of women who have been fighting for their rights and voicing out through various means and pageantry is one of them...... I am Team Paula here ❤❤❤
We miss miss universe old era
Same here :(
Hi Dani from Malaysia!
Hello! :)
The class and credibility of the MU pageant jumped out of the window when Anne took over. It is always about her. Drama hungry CEO! 🤮
Now Miss diva group isnt the franchise owner for Miss universeIndia 😢, Its changed to glamanand group(mgi India franchise holders).
Paula has been in the industry for years some of you might not know she was a Associate director for Star Search and is well connected in Hollywood. I can imagen she knows some good lawyers and let's not forget she was able to work under the former President and deal with him so for her to respond to Ann I take that as a warning for Ann to Back up and Zip it unless She wants to go toe to toe. Something tells me We are Not aware of some major events happening and for Rocha to pay 16 Million Dollars tells me Telemundo and NBC still have a stake in the pageant since the ratings were record breaking in those markets
Please Miss Paula take back the MUO 🙏😭
Hello Dani, we would love to see ur reaction videos for MUPH 2024 ❤
We want the MUO back to normal ☮️👑💟
Even Miss Philippines didnt made it to top 16, but his only concerned is about his fellow Thai who didnt make it to the semifinals. With that mindset you can tell that his a biased. We know whos telling the truth, why speak now when you're so silent after the pageant? 😂
Apparently your concerns over your own delegate mirror that of Khun Anne. Such a lack of self awareness.
@@PungiFungi there's a lot of front runners who didnt made it into the semifinals I just mentioned Miss Philippines as an example. What Im bothering about is hes the owner of the Miss Universe now but when you look at his post he didnt even mentioned about other girls who was rigged that year during the competition. He mentioned only about Thailand not being included into top 16, that is why Miss Thailand had an award as a token of being unplaced. Girl if you dont know how to comprehend my comment please STFU.
Drama is what Jukratutatip likes. She's living for it Uniberrrrrrrrrsssssssssssssssssssssssssssss
UNIBAAAARRS!
Is any of this referring to the Miss USA 2022 scandal regarding R’Bonney?
Yes, Anne is referring to 2022 when Thailand didn’t place in the top 16.
TEAM PAULA SHES BEEN IN THE ORGANIZATION FOR 26 YEARS AND SHES ALWAYS DONE HER BEST!!
dani please do muph 2024 presscon review
MUPH content coming soon :)
The moment I heard Miss Universe Organization will be bought by a Thai owner, I knew things will get messy from there on out. I also can smell something fishy will happen in the future after the 2023 edition. And poof, the leaked video came out.
MUO is a sinking ship. And I won't be so surprised if things get a little more chaotic moving forward.
messy would be an understatement.
Anne J has been selling MU to businesemen. The problem is that NO ONE wants to buy due to steep price and current debts.
following the pageant for such a long time, it is clear that the organization is struggling to stay relevant. but i mean, it is hard to balance the profit gains, the expectations of sponsors and stakeholders, while ensuring the integrity of the organization to offer a platform for aspiring young women. from trump to img to now jkn, these players are obviously looking at the profitability. on the flipside, paula has stayed really true to the core of her beliefs. i don't think she has anything to be afraid of in these accusations as her pedigree will speak for itself.
