Outrage as Miss US Virgin Islands is won by gal with no ties to the territory (Trump mentioned)
VI Consortium ^ | 8/18/19 | VI Consortium Staff

Posted on 08/20/2019 11:10:18 AM PDT by SilvieWaldorfMD

ST. CROIX — Six of the ten contestants who participated in Sunday evening’s Miss Universe U.S. Virgin Islands were women from outside the USVI, most with no known ties to the territory and some of whom had participated in other pageants just months prior. The competition, held in a banquet room at the Divi Carina Bay Casino, was the qualifying event whose winner will represent the U.S. Virgin Islands on the world’s biggest and most prominent pageantry stage: Miss Universe.

But what was a relatively engaged audience turned somewhat raucous when not one of the four local young women who represented their home, the USVI, was chosen by the judges — non of whom were local — as part of the top five finalists. The mood in the room went from cheerful to cheerless, and when the last of the top 5 was called, dismay gripped the crowd and things started to get unruly.

As the host was preparing to announce the winner, calling the would-be victor your Miss Universe U.S. Virgin Islands, a voice yelled out from the audience, "the judges’ Miss Universe [U.S. Virgin Islands]."

The displeasure among Virgin Islanders was rife. Inside and outside the banquet room, they spoke of the pageant’s results as a disgrace to the territory, with some calling the event fraudulent. One particular scene cut deep among some locals: as the top five finalists were called forward, the local girls remained at the back. A local individual told the Consortium that the scene brought her back to a grisly moment of her youth when she was raped.

Later, a commotion broke out between the event’s official photographer and some attendees.

Clearly, a virgin island man should have been chosen

Did any of the contestants list Epstein’s pedo-island as their address? Just wondering.

Nobody complaining about a beauty contest should be listened to.

But nevertheless, it seems that beauty contests are governed by the same rules as govern being a Senator from New York and going to the bathroom in a Target.

And yes, the girls -— or whatever they are -— should be virgins.

TRUE FACT:

The first two hurricanes named after men went straight towards The Virgin Islands.

Does the Miss Universe organization consider the Virgin Islands to be an independent country? A separate country from the US? If so why do they do that? What about Puerto Rico, Guam, etc?

[The contestants should have to be virgins from the Virgin Island.]

Totally agree. We have an annual bikini contest at a local watering hole. Hoping to see the local girls (waitresses, bartenders, locals) but every year the girls that show up are professionals, from Miami, Ft. Lauderdale, West Palm Beach.

Takes the fun out of it.

Yes, Puerto Rico, Guam, the USVI & American Samoa can have their own contestants since they are not US states.
