Most of those who felt Amanda Dudamel would win the evening were unhappy with R’Bonney Gabriel’s victory as Miss Universe 2022.
The new pageant owner, Anne Jakkaphong Jakrajutatip, now owns Miss USA and Miss Teen USA; therefore, everyone assumes the Filipino-American victory was a scam.
On Twitter, the Thai woman claims to own both competitions, suggesting Gabriel’s crown was already on before the contest.
Several American contestants claimed “favoritism” for Gabriel’s win.
Gabriel’s competitors also questioned her triumph since a beauty treatment shop that offered the winner a price advertised to Gabriel less than 24 hours after she won.
Gabriel appeared in a NIZUC spa ad 24 hours after winning the Miss USA pageant, leading other contenders to believe the process was rigged.
Forbes magazine estimates Anne Jakapong Jakrajutatip’s net worth at 170 million dollars.
She owns the Miss Universe organization.
