It is a competition, not a charity. She will have all kinds of attention and benefits to this. She is still the runner-up.
Ordinarily I would agree, but she was awarded the crown. She actually put the crown on her head.
She won.
Then she was un-awarded the crown.
I think just this year, they should make an exception and grant the title to both ladies. Miss Philippines won’t be offended, and it would be great for South American public relations.
Award both ladies.
Just this year.
