  • Sure she did, she promoted it so hard it's difficult to imagine anyone wanting to have any similar event in Thailand after this.

Totally agree, a complete joke and money spinners. The one for objectifying women—not that I fully object to that—the other for churning out garbage music. Both are way too political to boot. 

So her rich relative did not pay off any of the judges?

Well i am shocked!!  

I don't take the feminist view that these beauty contests are exploiting women. Men like to admire the female form, more than females (on average), and the ladies are willingly taking part.

 

Let's face it, there's not many options for a beautiful woman without the knowledge and skills to secure a better than average paying job.

 

It's just a shame that rich, professional, and usually ugly women want to cut off this revenue stream for less fortunate ones.

She is ugly. My wife looks better than that

I think a peak under the skirt is required as I think I see an adams apple.

I don't know about that but she does remind me a bit of a drag queen called Nacho Nefertiti.

It goes both ways.

 

Therè aŕe sòme tŕùĺy beautiful women in Mexico. I don"t think she is one of them.

With all the controversy surrounding this competition, I am sure everyone is glad its over!

Anybody reading this thread is a pervert.

 

These beauty pagents are very sick stuff.

 

'Darknet material. How was ever allowed to go global?

 

I mean, it would be nearly as bad as seeing your daughter pop up in a porn vid, for her to enter one of these dog and pony shows.

 

And if your son ever married a contestant you would immediately have to shoot him in the head >> for stupidity >> and to save him from a lifetime of worry and woe.

 

I am 72, happily married, never been a sexpat or a bar goer >> but give me a good honest, down to earth pole dancer rather than one if these fake "objects" any old day of the week.

 

Worse than a pair of plastic tits.

...The Strange International 'Goings-On' Of The 'Globalists'...(?)

...Always Some 'Programming Message' Behind All 'Highly Publicized So-Called Events'...(?)

 

...Always Predetermined Outcomes For So-Called Contests...(?)

...(That's What They Say About Politics, By The Way)...(?)

The only beauty pageant I really liked was Miss Teen Thailand, with contestants from every province.

 

For all the rest, there are cuter noodle-sellers on the way to the venue.

Court issues arrest warrant for Thai co-owner of Miss Universe pageant

 

By Jintamas Saksornchai  The Associated Press

A court in Thailand said Wednesday that it has issued an arrest warrant for a co-owner of the Miss Universe Organization in connection with a fraud case.

 

Jakkaphong “Anne” Jakrajutatip was charged with fraud then released on bail in 2023. She failed to appear as required in a Bangkok court on Tuesday. Since she did not notify the court about her absence, she was deemed to be a flight risk, according to a statement from the Bangkok South District Court.

 

The court rescheduled the hearing for Dec. 26.

 

According to the court’s statement, Jakkaphong and her company, JKN Global Group Public Co. Ltd., were sued for allegedly defrauding Raweewat Maschamadol in selling him the company’s corporate bonds in 2023. Raweewat says the investment caused him to lose 30 million baht ($930,362).

 

JKN acquired the rights to the Miss Universe pageant from IMG Worldwide LLC in 2022. In 2023, it sold 50 per cent of its Miss Universe shares to Legacy Holding Group USA, which is owned by a Mexican businessman, Raúl Rocha Cantú.

 

Jakkaphong resigned from all of the company’s positions in June after being accused by Thailand’s Securities and Exchange Commission of falsifying the company’s 2023 financial statements. She remains its largest shareholder.

 

Her whereabouts remain unclear. She did not appear at the 74th Miss Universe competition, which was held in Bangkok earlier this month.

 

This year’s competition was marred by various problems, including a sharp-tongued scolding by a Thai organizer of Fátima Bosch Fernández of Mexico, who was crowned Miss Universe 2025 on Nov. 19. Two judges reportedly dropped out, with one suggesting that there was an element of rigging to the contest. Separately, Thai police investigated allegations that publicity for the event included illegal promotion of online casinos.

 

On Monday, JKN denied rumors that Jakkaphong had liquidated the company’s assets and fled the country, but there has been no immediate reaction regarding the arrest warrant. She could not be reached for comment.

 

Jakkaphong is a well-known celebrity in Thailand who has starred in reality shows.

I don't pretend to be any kind of expert on female beauty, but I'm not seeing how she won. 

She had the maiden-qualities and innocence vibes, with a wholesome wife-to-be perfection is my reading on it. I haven't seen all the other contestants though. Some others had more earthy feels, striking looks etc. But that's what got her the edge I think.
