The Miss Universe organization, under their new owner, the Thai tycoon Anne Jakrajutatip, is suffering a massive boycott from several countries that previously had the regional franchises to send their candidate to the pageant, generating an uncertain future that worsens because of the controversial victory of R’Bonney Gabriel in the most recent edition of the contest.
Since JKN Global Group, through its owner Anne Jakrajutatip, acquired the franchise of the Miss Universe organization, many countries have been uncertain about what could happen with the pageant from now on.
As if it had been a prediction, the new owner is making some changes that have not pleased many countries. From the victory of Miss USA in the most recent edition, to the auction she is doing of each of the regional organizations around the world, this has generated great discontent in the public and in the business.
.
Ghana, Cayman Islands, Vietnam, Indonesia and Belize are just some of the countries that have thrown in the towel with Miss Universe. They all conclude that they are not willing to align themselves with the new requirements that Jakrajutatip is asking for in order to compete.
The concern about what will happen with the pageant continues to generate discussion in social networks. Since Miss Universe has traditionally been the most important and popular beauty pageant worldwide, something that could be completely over with the new owner.
In the meantime, R’Bonney Gabriel is currently on an Asian tour promoting the pageant. Unfortunately, however, she has not been able to get any companies interested in using her image to advertise products or media.
