Kaya raw si Michelle ang nanalo… SHAMCEY, NAGSALITA NA SA 'LUTUAN' SA MISS UNIVERSE-PHILS. 2023

A week after ng Miss Universe-Philippines coronation night at paglutang ng kontrobersiya sa mga nanalong kandidata, naglabas ng kanyang statement ang national director ng pageant at dating beauty queen na si Shamcey Supsup para magbigay-linaw sa isyu.

Panimula ni Shamcey sa kanyang Instagram post, “I want to take a moment to address the recent controversy and provide some clarity on what transpired after the announcement of the top 10 during the Miss Universe-Philippines pageant.”

May alingasngas kasi na nagkaroon ng “lutuan” para i-push na makoronahan ang bagong Miss Universe-Philippines na si Michelle Marquez Dee.

Nabuo ang pagdududa sa resulta ng winner nu’ng biglang nag-announce ang isa sa mga hosts ng show na si Xian Lim na nagkaroon ng technical difficulty sa pagta-tally ng judges’ votes.

“Following the announcement, which was based on the independently tabulated results provided by the accounting firm, those very same results were submitted to the board of MUPh for record-keeping purposes.

“However, as I carefully examined the figures, my attention was drawn to the highly improbable nature of the numbers. This gave rise to concerns that the integrity of the results may have been compromised.

“In order to ensure absolute fairness and transparency, the board made the decision to initiate a manual counting of the judges' votes. This meticulous process was conducted with the utmost diligence and in the presence of the accounting firm. As a result, it became evident that there were discrepancies in the initial top 10 results,” esplika ni Shamcey.

Dahil d’yan, nagdesisyon sila na payagan nang rumampa ang 18 candidates para sa evening gown competition.

Depensa ni Shamcey, “Our primary objective as an organization is to promote integrity, transparency, and accountability in all aspects of the pageant. We believe in providing equal opportunities for all candidates and to do what is right no matter the consequences.”

Sa kabila nito, may mga negative feedbacks pa rin ang lumabas sa comment section ng IG post ni Shamcey.

“If transparency pala ang gusto mo/n'yo, Madame, dapat 'yung totoong pumasok sa Top 10, pinarampa n'yo sa Evening Gown, 'di 'yung babaguhin n'yo on the spot ang format. Dapat nu'ng moment na 'yun mismo n'yo itinuwid 'yung mali, kung may mali ang SGV. 'Yung Miss Universe org and Steve Harvey nga, corrected their mistake in front of worldwide audience, bakit 'di n'yo ginawa? Nasaan ang fairness and transparency du'n?”

“Pageantry have never been this messy! Kaya ibalik sa BBP ang MUPH!”

“We need scores rather than this.”

Dagsa rin ang reklamo kay Shamcey sa treatment na ibinigay nila sa last year’s Miss Universe-Philippines na si Celeste Cortesi during the coronation night. Hindi raw nabigyan ng kaukulang treatment that night si Celeste. May kumalat din daw na tsikang ‘di okey si Celeste at ang MUPH org.

Teka, ‘di ba’t si Celeste ang kandidata ng 'Pinas sa Miss Universe pageant na ginanap sa New Orleans, USA last year kung saan napabalitang iniwan daw siya agad-agad ng mga taga-MUPH?

Daming isyu ng MUPH, huh?
