Miss Universe winner walks out after ‘disrespectful’ comment

At one point in the speech, Itsaragrisil calls Bosch a ‘dummy,’ which upset other contestants in the room.

While Bosch was berated by him, she stood her ground and waited for her turn to speak. Because of this, Itsaragrisil said, “I still keep talking to everybody, why you still stand up to talk to me?”

“Because I have a voice,” the Mexican contestant responded. She added, “You are not respecting me as a woman.”

After the two went back and forth for a few minutes, Itsaragrisil called for security, and the other women in the room responded with a ‘no’ in disagreement.

As she left the room, Itsaragrisil said as a parting comment, “As women, you need to show respect for us. I’m here representing a country and it’s not my fault that you have problems with my organization.”

A few other contestants followed Bosch out. This included the current Miss Universe, Victoria Kjær Theilvig, who is believed to have left as well.

A handful of contestants then got to their feet and followed Bosch out. The current Miss Universe, Victoria Kjær Theilvig, is believed to have been among those who chose to leave.

However, Itsaragrisil urged them to stop and told them if they wanted to continue in the contest, they should sit down.
