Viral Video: It started like any other dazzling night, gowns, lights, and practiced smiles. But behind the sparkle, tempers simmered, and one unexpected outburst shattered the illusion of poise.
What should have been a celebration of beauty turned into a storm of defiance. The cameras didn’t blink, the crowd didn’t breathe, and in moments, grace gave way to chaos, leading straight into the meltdown that followed on stage.
The Meltdown Moment: Chaos Erupts on Miss Universe Stage
The Miss Universe controversy erupted after director Nawat Itsaragrisil called Miss Mexico, Fatima Bosch, a “dumbhead” during a pre-pageant event. The Miss Universe Thailand director reprimanded Bosch for not posting promotional content, and when she tried to explain, he shouted, “I’m still talking!”, demanding silence.
Tensions rose as Nawat threatened disqualification for anyone supporting Bosch. She walked out, and one by one, other Miss Universe contestants followed, turning the event into a public rebellion. The viral video captured contestants leaving in protest, sashes and gowns trailing behind them, as some challenged Nawat directly.
“If anyone wants to continue the contest, sit down. If you step out, the rest of the girls continue,” he declared. Most stood up and left in solidarity. Bosch later said Nawat was “not respectful” and had called her “dumb.” The Miss Universe Organization condemned his “malicious” behaviour, with President Raul Rocha vowing action and legal review.

Commenters called for more support for the Miss Universe contestants to walk out, posting memes and fiery opinions. The controversy drew even bigger crowds as fans debated every angle, hoping for accountability and change.
Director Responds After Rebellion: “If Anyone Feels Bad…”
Mr Nawat offered a public apology via social media. He said, “If anyone feels bad, uncomfortable, or affected, I apologise to everyone. I especially apologised to the girls who were present, around 75 of them.” Despite the Miss Universe director’s outburst, the competition pressed on. Contestants attended a welcome event in Bangkok, holding their heads high.
