Controversy

Nothing great goes without a hiccup or two. 

Looking back now I am not embarrassed by what I did but maturity has taught me that there are always options to handling things differently. I stood up for something that I believed in at the time. I believe that is always a “Queens” role. 

Pageants are heavily unregulated, leaving it wide open for misunderstanding, overworked contestants and crew and sometimes poor treatment. In this case there was a breakdown in communications on all parts including mine. 

According to the reports, yes we were told we could go through dress rehearsal without makeup/hair etc. but as beauty Queens representing our countries and national directors, we shouldn’t have - as that is part of our job - to be physically presentable at all times and we should assume that cameras are around at all times.

For the full story see, Wikipedia.
