not everything, like number of contestants 68 to MU's 125. production values definitely yes, they put up their best show so far this year. though there were still some missteps (no headphones for final 5) and generally their advocacy presentation still seems forced (like how do you really show an anti-war stance).

@@KhrysthaI got out of work as fast as I could to watch it and I had major difficulties finding a live stream. This year was the worst when it came to Miss Universe. I was highly disappointed with production and everything over all.
So agree with u , I am watching MU since 94 and then stopped from 2005 to 2014 (hated the Trump Era for some reason) and now with Anne and her vibes phew the production was worst and I don’t think I will watch pagents any more.
I love how real you are with this review. I agree with the majority of what you said. I agree that the majority of the black queens got robbed especially Zimbabwe and Jamaica.
I think they loved the controversy that chidimma brought that's why she was second....imagine being in pageants from your teens just to have someone with little experience beat u 😅
@@elsaleandros6988 Miss Thailand deserved the placing. If anything, she should've been the one holding hands with Miss Nigeria in top 2 bcz they gave the best answers in the Q&A section.

Disappointing pageant. I miss the days where u don’t see or hear about the owners. Now, they’re all over the place wanting to be “queens” themselves 😄. MGI wins the best pageant this year with the grandest production values. 😘🌹🙏🏼❤️
You’ve just wrapped up our exact same thoughts about this year’s Miss Universe edition. All your opinions are on point! I love it! I agree that Miss Grand International is the pageant of the year.
- india & zimbabwe should be in top 12 - mexico shouldn't be in top 5 - new zealand & brazil should be in top 30 - poor lighting & camera work Overall, i still think that Denmark is a deserving winner, she performs well on stage, is extremely beautiful physically and is a fairly good speaker.
Agree.. only Denmark’s and Nigeria’s answers sounded genuine. Thailand’s sounds templated and the others probably trained so much that they try to fit templated answers to any questions
@@ronnieevan7861how Thailand sounded templated??.. people are putting Nigeria on the ninth cloud I don't know why. A lot of pageant vloggers said that Thailand really gave stunning answers
I do agree that Thailand and Nigeria should have been top 2.. even Catriona Gray said so far those are her top 2 but then she's not a judge. The CEO just wanted a blonde as she mentioned in the post paegent press conference
Miss Denmark had already met with the MU owners and officials in Thailand on September 28th as per her Insta page and had been practicing her interviews and catwalks since then. Her victory, therefore, didn’t come as a surprise-it felt almost orchestrated. She was allowed to be photographed and interviewed everywhere in Mexico, while other contestants were aggressively kept away from the spotlight by their chaperones.
Well, it has been so long since there has been a true blonde as the winner. I've loved a lot of the dark-haired beauties who have won in the past (Maritza Sayalero, Chelsi Smith, Oxana Federova, Sheynnis Palacios and others) but Denmark was a very deserving winner this year.
It seems like this year’s crown was planned to go to Europe from the beginning, which is why the strong Latina contestants were deliberately eliminated and not called into the Top 5. Denmark was chosen because she was the only strong contestant representing Europe.
Cannot agree more... it just breaks my heart but MGI did such good job this year they completely surpassed MU in every aspect whether its activities, production, telecasting, fairness to contestants or winner they were top notch. It's actually really sad to see such condition of beloved MU and all the deceitfulness going on behind.
@@atacama56 Yeah, no hate to her she is pretty and have her own struggles but if you ask about 'IT' factor or substance I don't know. Her answers were okay and quite less people expected her to win after those answers. Where in MGI there was no dispute after Q&A and the rankings were fair and what everyone expected. I can't find one thing MU has done better than them this year!
@@RJ-iq8gw honestly... I agree with you because since the day one people don't even talk about these two winning countries because they feel like they aren't going to make it, they always like talking about countries that will give them more followers. I unsubscribe from a lot of RUclipsrs. They world of pageantry doesn't always have to revolve around India and Ph, and I am glad to see MU exhibiting that this year without being bias. Congratulations to the queen 👑 👑 and Nigeria 🇳🇬🇳🇬🇳🇬
I was expecting Nigeria to win based on her answer..... Also half of the judge was Hispanic... I wasnt shocked that all these latina made it to the top 12
I was surprised that any black contestant placed as I was expecting them to do a blackout like 2002. The top 30 selections were sketchy at best. I was expecting Nigeria to win but happy for Denmark.
That's why they say it was cooked. What was Mexico doing in the Top 3? MEXICO, really??? And Dominican disrespecting all the girls like that turn making Top 5? Then Zimbabwe with her splendid performance all throughout the three weeks. Constantly in Top 5 hot pics only makes Top 30. Worst Miss Universe pageant ever. Last year's was far betrer No rigging involved.
This is the first year i got struggled to watch miss universe they said they're gonna telecast for free but they didn't go live and they blocked many bloggers too
DR's attitude by screaming her name when it was not part of the show makes me re- evaluate Miss Panama 's disqualification. I wonder what the real deal was??🤔
- worst build up to a final show (events) - bad venue and production - questionable top 30 - VERY QUESTIONABLE top 12, russia??😭 she was not better than india, dr, phil, or literally anyone else in the 30. - mexico’s hometown advantage dragged her through. she was sooo bad! - weak top 5 answers - worst answer won (guys? she stuttered and just didn’t know what she was saying. her answers lacked substance and were entirely lacking, all for what? to say “we crowned the first blond in a long time”? seems that way because that’s all anne was talking about at the post competition press conference. - miss grand is now the top pageant - dominican republic is such a queen. she just does whatever she wants, and i love it. i know it’s wrong.
Yup. What gets me is. Mexico got dragged all along when she was horrible!!!! Everyone knows it! And Im sorry, I didnt like Thailand. But after the Answers Thailand or Nigeria should have been the winner NOT Denmark. But ofcourse. They knew they were going to crown her from the beginning. Hell I knew. i speak spanish and in Telemundo Osmel said they wanted an European.
@@KevinGonzalez-hs7so And what when the answer was not good? Are they choosing a CEO for NASA or what? This is a beauty competition, to make it a bit "thrilling" they are asking questions, as if it can show the real knowledge or ideas or education of the girls. They are all agitated, emotional, may be even Einstein could stutter, when such a question would be asked to him to answer in a few minutes instead asking him about atoms! The girls who have been chosen deserved it. Hasn't other girls deserved it also? Yes there were a lot, but only "1" wins and if someone other would have won, someone else would say for them the same as you said for these winners. I am only against the continental winners. B ecause when Denmark got Miss Universe how can Finland be the Queen for Europe; the same with Thailand vs. Philippines and Venezuela vs.Peru. Then they should choose someone else also for Africa! İt is a more poor continent and another girl from this continent deserved to profit more than a european or asian etc.
They did it well, I liked that woman from the first moment, she is really beautiful, and Dominican republic was not even in my top 30! You see opinions change
@@Davidjimv I live here so,Denmark is a country that I know and love, there are super beautiful women that could have represented Denmark better. From that top 5, I think Thailand was the whole package and the winner in my opinion. I loved Tati, but she didn't unfortunately make it in top 5 cause that place was obviously reserved to Mexico.
@ 🤣 Du er ikke dansker !! Og tror heller ikke på, at du bor i Peru!! Come on man, I m not saying Peru should have won, I m just saying, there were better candidates. And stop lying, you are not danish.
Agree 100% one of the worst MU editions in recent years, the organisation is messed up. I don't even understand why such low-budget stage & India, Finland, Philippines didn't make it to the top 12 as predicted & Peru didn't make it in the top 5 & ofcourse Mexico, Thailand & Venezuela will definitely entered the top 5 because of the owners so let's see next year if MU will go down the hill or will reflects & correct their mistakes
@@mariotorrealba4810 yes physical beautiful is very good but you should possess thee whole package... And don't stage an act as Chelsea MANALO said "never fake it till u make it" lol
I TOTALLY AGREE…oh my, what happened?? I was sooo surprised with Thailand and Venezuela being 3rd and 4th runner up, respectively. The worst production I’ve seen so far…☹️☹️☹️
@borrisdillan9783 because you are jealous loser. Lol. She was among the crown favorite all these time even before or after. You're lost. That's why. Lol
@@travelwithnou winner wutt? The universe know Thailand was simply put there desperately to show to the world that they are powerhouse than India and the Phils hahahah! its an act of desperation as CEO is Thai hahaha! If Trump takeover the MUO again for sure Thailand is back to clapper hahaha! During Trump era (2010-2014) Philippines always Top5! During IMG era (2015-2021) Phils always Top5 too! ..Thailand became so jealous so they wanted to buy MUO and voila! Thailand suddenly now always Top5 hahahahahahahahahahahahhahah!
Absolutely. No hate to 🇵🇭 but if Thailand has made top 5 means she's already surpassed Chelsea in Asia and in the contest in general. All am trying to say is the MU this year had no logic and made no sense
I was wondering the same thing. I mean what the hell. If the Thai queen made it to the top 5, she would have been placed highest among Asian contestants. This is complete bullshit. So unfair
MU is all about business now honestly speaking MU has been declining since 2022,now totally declined they looking for business, its between Thailand and Nigeria they deserved the crown 👑 fricking damned show , I don't know what is going on to the judges, it's very questionable??? Funny dicision 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
When Denmark gave the final answer with strong conviction and louder voice to be heard by everyone, I knew the judges could have used that as a powerful empowered woman that can influence others. She was my winner after the final q and a round. Congrats Denmark!
Totally agree with you! It's insane that Thailand was not the winner or first runner-up, with Nigeria. Either Nigeria or Thailand should have won, definitely not Denmark. And Mexico being in the top 5 was soooo wrong! 👎🏼👎🏼👎🏼 And yes, the production quality was terrible! Cheap and small stage with inadequate lighting! Poor Sheynis was in darkness for her final speech and there was a mistake in stage directions that caused her to miss the cue for her final walk. The whole Miss Universe Organisation under JKN has been really terrible.
Diabolical! That was a wonderful word for the whole Production. I am old and I couldn’t see a thing on my TV. The lighting was horrendous! What happened to Peru my first pic. I don’t know if you mentioned Miss Puerto Rico‘s dress. I think she lost because of it. I’m a Puerto Rican and she could’ve got higher up although not win. My first pic was Peru. She is stunning. I love Nigeria, but I am happy for Denmark. Aloha.
Miss grand international had better Q&A compared to Miss universe. Thailand and Nigeria did well in Q&A they deserved to be in top 3 Venezuela translator made sure to ruin her chances to win Miss Universe
Seriously Mexico with that Annabelle face managed to get 2nd runner up is the biggest joke of the year Osmel made sure both of his girls Mexico and Argentina got placed he was also ND For Argentina when Venezuela kicked him out
MISS DENMARK HAS THE TOTAL PACKAGE. I HAVE BEEN WATCHING MISS UNIVERSE PAGEANT SINCE 1970'S AND I CONSIDER HER AS THE MOST BEAUTIFUL MISS UNIVERSE EVER EVEN SURPASSING OXANA FEDOROVA THE 2002 MISS UNIVERSE. SHE IS LIKE A LIVING BARBI DOLL AND WITH THE MOST BEAUTIFUL EYES. THE JUDGES REALLY DID AN HONEST JOB. IF THERE WAS A BIAS THEY SHOULD HAVE SELECTED A LATINA SINCE MOST OF THE JUDGES ARE LATINOS AND LATINAS.
I think the winning of Ms. Denmark was planned and pre-arranged, if you could remember, Denmark has visited both owners Ann and Raul prior to the event, and I think she was invited by two rather than visiting them. Aside from that each of the owners candidate was on top 5 , Mexico, Thailand, Venezuela. Despite of Superb performance of Filipinas on Swim suit, they don't let her enter top 12.
I think differently though I'm Nigerian. Miss Denmark deserves the win because her answers were most universally focused. Chidinma would have won if she had just included "...and the world" after her last word "Africa" when she answered the last Q&A session question.
Eh. I follow the pageant and from Day one. Osmel said on Telemundo that an European should be crowned. That gave it away for me. I think Denmark deserved it. But Thailand and Nigeria deserved it more and did better on Q&As! Coming from a Puerto Rican. Let me not even get about the Mexico situation and her getting dragged along.
@@andreaclarke161 I dont think it was racism tbh. They just wanted an European Blonde. Because they havent had one in about 20 years. Which is fucked imo, because it should be who did the best
India should be in top 12 , it was really surprising. Nigeria should have won , she did so good in everything but yeah its been a long time for Europe.
But you cant be making predictions on who should have won when you dont know how they would have answered the questions😂 see why you are not the judge and you should never be
To some comments here, Please understand that MU is not belongs to Thailand, it is belongs to Anne and Raoul. We send our best queens every year. Since 2015, our queens have made it to the top 10 with or without Anne. There have only been 2 years that we have unplaced. Please don't look down on us Thais, we love a clean competition.
I couldn't agree more!! I didn't even get up to watch the finals. From start to end, the worst edition of Miss Universe and it seems like it's now officially on a downhill trend. In fact it was so boring I was hardly on my instagram this year. So underwhelming!!! Also, Denmark was pretty but I believe Thailand should have won followed by either Nigeria or Venezuela.
Thank you MGI for allowing us fans watched ALL the performances in Grand TV, RUclips!!!! Gosh, Miss Universe please learn from them! Anne, pleae call Nawat personally and ask for suggestions cuz you're a walk of shame!!! Or just sell the MU off, because you're a disastrous leader!!!!!
I was so shocked at the lack of quality, especially with last years show being so grand and vibrant! And I agree, Mexico had no business being in the top 5 and should have been left in the top 12
The competition just around in the hotel, no activity outside, cant promote culture and people there, so boring, the stage is so dark, should be outside the top 6 peageant.
The Miss South African event was much better than this, I hope they bring Miss Universe 2025 to SA so that we can teach them a thing or two, this was the worst indeed. I still feel that Miss Phillipines did much better that she was given, she is so beautiful,. Congradulations to the Miss Universe 2024 , she is beautiful,
No, no serious competition should be held in a country where Xenophobia is glorified. You couldn't even congratulate your fellow African that came up 2nd. Horrible, sickening and very shameful!
It was biased. India and phillipines was deserving for top 5. From the very begining i felt like they were favouring Latina. May be i am wrong but it is my feeling
@@kirtansyangden6694 I'm sorry, but the Philippines would have placed in the top five if she had advanced. When Thailand ranked in the top five during their practice questions, their responses about empathy were similar to Malaysia's. However, the Philippines' answers were more lucid. Take a look at their behind-the-scenes practice sessions; there are uploads about that video.
That would be a disrespect to compare Nawat with Anne. Because nawat cares a lot about his contestants. Like in Cambodia when he saw his contestants are not getting the best hospitality he instantly moved to Thailand with all contestants. The contestants had so much fun in Thailand unlike MU contestants being locked in hotel. Even after MGI has ended their titleholders are attending so many events having an amazing time.
@@2005ZION I had thought so highly of Miss Universe contests, because it is the oldest and most well known among all the beauty pageants now mushrooming all over the world. The first time I have ever watched from the start to end was this recently concluded MU 2024 and I must say that I was very disappointed. First of all, I think the some of the judges were biased and wanted to be politically correct. Just look at the Top 5. Among them, Miss Thailand. The owner of Miss Universe organization is from Thailand, Anne Jakrajutatip. Another top 5 selection is Miss Mexico. The President of MU Raul Rocha is Mexican. Miss Venezuela was also in the Top 5. Well, the Advisory President Osmel Sousa is from Venezuela. So, there you go. I'm not sure about Miss Nigeria, but I think she got into the Top 5 because they wanted somebody from Africa who was black even though there were a lot of rumors about her conflict with Miss South Africa (who is white) prior to the final show. So, I think only the winner Miss Denmark truly deserved the crown although her Q & A answer was a mediocre one. I'm not a big fan of Mr Nawat, the owner of MGI. However, I agree when you say that he cares a lot about his contestants. In every MGI event, he arranges many outdoor activities for the contestants with fun excursions to places of interest in the host country. It was not so with MU. Except for one trip outside Mexico City for some selected delegates and the photoshoot at the capital city's main square, the beauty queens were locked down in their hotel. My thinking is that the owners of MU were more interested in making money than in the welfare of the contestants. Again, what a huge disappointment!
Without seeing the actual 3 weeks and prelims and finals in Mexico yet during the year leading up to this year’s festivities, Thailand was always my front runner. She was my best bet of those I had on my radar to show out and show up when the time arrived. I honestly didn’t look too much into Denmark(and because there were just SO many girls I had the suspicion that someone who I didn’t know much about could definitely rise to the top)but now that I know more about her it does make sense to me. 2 things with Thailand that I found notable and might have hurt her in being the judges choice. I do not not not understand why Opal wore a one-piece. I don’t understand why she wore her hair up the WHOLE prelims and finals including in her headshot. I LOVED her hair in swimsuit at Miss Universe Thailand. And just notable that her finals gown technically kind of clashes with the new crown but who would have known. But there is a thing with judges being able to visualize the girl wearing the crown. Interesting competitive year. Unfortunately we as the audience are missing one of the biggest puzzle pieces at first always, the interview.
I don't understand continental titles cause Philippines won instead of Thailand and Russia is highest placed contestant next to winner but Finland got europe title it's really confusing
As South Africans we are happy for Denmark , well deserved . Nothing happens outside of Gods will , it was her time to shine and may she shine the brightest 🎉🎉🎉
For Philippines cut out from Top 12, it was rigged. Philippines would never place and be rigged as long as Khun Anne partially owns this pageant. His jealousy towards Philippines accomplishments at MU triggered her to buy the organization to bring Philippines down every year at MU. That’s what I felt when she chose to buy MUO.
What went wrong was that every photographer at the event seemed to focus exclusively on the Latin American contestants, as well as Miss Thailand and Miss Denmark, showcasing them constantly. This was evident not just on the MU app, but across all social media platforms. For instance, Miss Denmark had already met with the MU owners and officials in Thailand on September 28th, and had been practicing her interviews and catwalks since then. Her victory, therefore, didn’t come as a surprise-it felt almost orchestrated. She was allowed to be photographed and interviewed everywhere in Mexico, while other contestants were aggressively kept away from the spotlight by their chaperones. As a result, some truly beautiful contestants, like Miss United Arab Emirates and Miss Bangladesh, were largely ignored. To make matters worse, voting for every round-from swimsuits to evening gowns-was done through monetary contributions on the MU app. The Voice for Change Award was announced, but their speeches were never shown. Perhaps the most disappointing aspect was the way contestants were reduced to mere mannequins during the evening gown segment. And as for Anne, she seemed to want all the attention for herself, much like Urvashi. Overall, it was an unfair, rigged, and ultimately disappointing event of the year.
Honestly, not to me, but hey, that's my opinion. I believe it was predetermined. The organization has been saying they want to expand into Europe, so the writing was kinda on the wall. Idk guys, I really don't know.
Sigh as a fan of MU I'm just really sad and disappointed by this year but hey we have a new Queen so let’s wish her a great year and hopefully next year is better. The positive, is that it's a B2B win for non sash factor countries so that's really good to see.
I've always held the opinion that for black women to win pageants, they better not make any mistakes. As beautiful as they are, they aren't shown any grace and are judged harshly. HELD TO A WAY HIGHER STANDARD. Same with indigenous women.This edition of Miss Universe showed that. As beautiful as Nigeria was, She performed well throughout the rounds. She secured and earned her top 5 spot, only to lose to a white woman who gave mediocre responses in the Q and A. Nothing against Denmark, beautiful and smart woman, but she didn't earn that crown. Her looks did. After all it's a beauty pageant. As beautiful as Nigeria is, the judges didn't find her worthy of the crown. After both rounds of Q and A, based on everyone's performance and taking everything into consideration prior, performances throughout the rounds...Ibelieved the top 2 should have been Nigeria and Thailand and I would have been satisfied with either winning. Granted I gave Nigeria the edge but, but it really was neck and neck at the line between her and Thailand. _______ Now, when it came to the show, prelims and finals....ONE BIG ORGANIZED MESS.....Just horrible ‼️ It was so bad‼️
Congratulations Chelsea for winning! Chelsea will travel to 36 countries at minimum with MU. Such a rewarding accomplishment to see the world in a year. ❤
It's amazing how many people mention Zimbabwe. She is extraordinarily beautiful! At least top 5 material. When they called Miss Thailand, instead, I thought " Hmm, here we go".
But I'm glad to see new countries in top 12 like boliva and Russia they deserved but Argentina and Canada performance was underwhelming even miss Cambodia did better than them
I was also extremely disappointed with the MU production. I agree with you, the staging was very bad, so small and lack awe. Thailand and Philippines had way better production and staging for their country's 2024 MU competition. I thought the top 5 would be Thailand, Peru, Venezuela, Finland, a tie between Philippines and Russia and top 3 would have been Venezuela, Thailand, Finland. I agree with everything you mentioned. I even went out of my way to get Roku because I was hoping it was going to be a big production like last year in El Salvador, and it was not. I'm Happy though, the crown went to Denmark. 👏Congratulations Miss Denmark! 👑👑👑
Honest review 🙌💯💯 just in shock at how bad this edition was. El Salvador 2023 edition really cemented themselves as the peak edition🏆 before the fall of Miss Universe 📉
I am glad someone finally said it. That was not afinal walk for Sheynis. The stage set up. She paused in the middle of the stage and only walkedafelter her speech she walked to complete silence 😢
DR had disgusting behaviour from the starting. If you guys remember even during the national competition she rudely placed the sash on the hands of Miss Dominican Republic 2023....now she again proved that she was not worthy of the crown.
Thank you for your fine analysis. I am so glad I didn't watch the whole pageant, I was SHOCKED by the poor lighting and stagecraft when I watched the recaps this morning. WTF?!? Lat year's pageant looked SO MUCH BETTER! Miss Denmark is lovely but I was also surprised by her win. Do you think the new management is heavily discounting the sash factor and promoting countries that haven't won before?
This is the biggest disappointment for all other girls who competed this year's miss universe bcoz this pageant competition looks like biased.... Look at miss Mexico she just don't even deserve to be even in top 30. This shows hard work is not only the key to miss universe...u need to be host of the show also
I believe that the hosts have ALWAYS held the microphones in the Miss Universe pageant. I don't think the 2024 edition was any different than the rest when it came to the microphone issue!

Her answers were okay and quite less people expected her to win after those answers. Where in MGI there was no dispute after Q&A and the rankings were fair and what everyone expected.
I can't find one thing MU has done better than them this year!
@@RJ-iq8gw honestly... I agree with you because since the day one people don't even talk about these two winning countries because they feel like they aren't going to make it, they always like talking about countries that will give them more followers. I unsubscribe from a lot of RUclipsrs. They world of pageantry doesn't always have to revolve around India and Ph, and I am glad to see MU exhibiting that this year without being bias.
Congratulations to the queen 👑 👑 and Nigeria 🇳🇬🇳🇬🇳🇬
DENMARK WAS THE BEST.
As long as Kun Ann is there.. MU is getting down. MGI pageant of the year!
I was expecting Nigeria to win based on her answer..... Also half of the judge was Hispanic... I wasnt shocked that all these latina made it to the top 12
same as last year
I agree Nigeria had the best answers. Her answers were short and to the point.
Bias panel of judges
I was surprised that any black contestant placed as I was expecting them to do a blackout like 2002. The top 30 selections were sketchy at best. I was expecting Nigeria to win but happy for Denmark.
@@andreaclarke161 A big YES! The top 3 executives of MU had the final say. Anne, Raul and Osmel.
Miss Thailand win has been taken from her.😢
I was also expecting Miss Zimbabwe to be on the top 5 or top 3 as well.
Definitely, Sakhile was actually my second. Congratulations to Denmark 🇩🇰 🎉 🎉
I was also expecting Sakhile to be in the top 5.
That's why they say it was cooked. What was Mexico doing in the Top 3? MEXICO, really??? And Dominican disrespecting all the girls like that turn making Top 5? Then Zimbabwe with her splendid performance all throughout the three weeks. Constantly in Top 5 hot pics only makes Top 30.
Worst Miss Universe pageant ever. Last year's was far betrer
No rigging involved.
😂😂😂😂
Yes i agree India n phillipines deserves better!. I share your grief
No Filipina terlalu banyak hack
I was shocked that Miss Zimbabwe didn’t even make it up to top 12
I was also shocked and disappointed 😢
Me too! She was beautiful!
This is how I would placed the top 5.
1. Nigeria
2. Thailand
3. Venezuela
4. Denmark
5. Mexico
I agree
It will be remembered that probably Denmark won only for being a blonde with blue eyes as confirmed by the person in charge.
This is the first year i got struggled to watch miss universe they said they're gonna telecast for free but they didn't go live and they blocked many bloggers too
DR's attitude by screaming her name when it was not part of the show makes me re- evaluate Miss Panama 's disqualification. I wonder what the real deal was??🤔
not only that she didnt follow the direction during prelims
I saw a video where it was confirmed it wasn't that at all. It was more to do with her violating the make up suitation
I normally watch Miss Universe replays even if my country didn’t make the cut. For this edition, I’m not going to do that. This is a terrible edition.
Pemandangan buruk saya kecewa MU
MGI adalah hiburan yang waw
- worst build up to a final show (events)
- bad venue and production
- questionable top 30
- VERY QUESTIONABLE top 12, russia??😭 she was not better than india, dr, phil, or literally anyone else in the 30.
- mexico’s hometown advantage dragged her through. she was sooo bad!
- weak top 5 answers
- worst answer won (guys? she stuttered and just didn’t know what she was saying. her answers lacked substance and were entirely lacking, all for what? to say “we crowned the first blond in a long time”? seems that way because that’s all anne was talking about at the post competition press conference.
- miss grand is now the top pageant
- dominican republic is such a queen. she just does whatever she wants, and i love it. i know it’s wrong.
It seems Anne was passionate about crowing a blonde...
Yup. What gets me is. Mexico got dragged all along when she was horrible!!!! Everyone knows it! And Im sorry, I didnt like Thailand. But after the Answers Thailand or Nigeria should have been the winner NOT Denmark. But ofcourse. They knew they were going to crown her from the beginning. Hell I knew. i speak spanish and in Telemundo Osmel said they wanted an European.
@@KevinGonzalez-hs7so And what when the answer was not good? Are they choosing a CEO for NASA or what? This is a beauty competition, to make it a bit "thrilling" they are asking questions, as if it can show the real knowledge or ideas or education of the girls. They are all agitated, emotional, may be even Einstein could stutter, when such a question would be asked to him to answer in a few minutes instead asking him about atoms! The girls who have been chosen deserved it. Hasn't other girls deserved it also? Yes there were a lot, but only "1" wins and if someone other would have won, someone else would say for them the same as you said for these winners. I am only against the continental winners. B ecause when Denmark got Miss Universe how can Finland be the Queen for Europe; the same with Thailand vs. Philippines and Venezuela vs.Peru. Then they should choose someone else also for Africa! İt is a more poor continent and another girl from this continent deserved to profit more than a european or asian etc.
They did it well, I liked that woman from the first moment, she is really beautiful, and Dominican republic was not even in my top 30! You see opinions change
Same. I was wonderring why ms Russia made it to top 12
Congratulations to Miss Denmark(such a Barbie)…Proud of my country Nigeria 🇳🇬, I still wish Nigeria won..Great job Chidinma 🙏🏾
Thats what I think 🤣 she’s such a barbie
Did you watch Sheynnis's final walk? I can not see her face.
Bad lighting. A shame.
Her gown was supposed to light up that's why dimmed when she appeared but too bad it didn't turn on 😢
@@jojopatz9766 A gown supposed to light up... That's a bad idea.
As a Peruvian living in Denmark I agree 100% with you. Denmark was not the best. Mexico in top 3: fraude.
Are you saying that as a Peruvian living in Denmark Peru should have been the winner? Makes sense
@@Davidjimv I live here so,Denmark is a country that I know and love, there are super beautiful women that could have represented Denmark better. From that top 5, I think Thailand was the whole package and the winner in my opinion. I loved Tati, but she didn't unfortunately make it in top 5 cause that place was obviously reserved to Mexico.
As a peruvian that hates Mexico still cause Andrea won in 2020.... 🙄 of course Denmark was the best!!
As a DANISH living in PERU i want to say THAT PERU is a typical sylicon doll and DENMARK is a natural beuty girl)
@ 🤣 Du er ikke dansker !! Og tror heller ikke på, at du bor i Peru!! Come on man, I m not saying Peru should have won, I m just saying, there were better candidates. And stop lying, you are not danish.
Agree 100% one of the worst MU editions in recent years, the organisation is messed up. I don't even understand why such low-budget stage & India, Finland, Philippines didn't make it to the top 12 as predicted & Peru didn't make it in the top 5 & ofcourse Mexico, Thailand & Venezuela will definitely entered the top 5 because of the owners so let's see next year if MU will go down the hill or will reflects & correct their mistakes
Agreeeee 100%
Your review was on point. This is probably the worst MU competition in decades. What a cheap horrible production.
It seems as tho miss universe is now more about physical beauty n pride more than inner beauty n humility
I agree👍👍
These two biches just wanna make money.
It wouldn't be a pageant otherwise!
@@mariotorrealba4810 yes physical beautiful is very good but you should possess thee whole package... And don't stage an act as Chelsea MANALO said "never fake it till u make it" lol
MGI hats off to you, MU getting devastating
Thanks for always supporting on our Indian queens ❤
I TOTALLY AGREE…oh my, what happened?? I was sooo surprised with Thailand and Venezuela being 3rd and 4th runner up, respectively. The worst production I’ve seen so far…☹️☹️☹️
well i was even more surprised why Thailand is included on Top5 hahhaaha..
@borrisdillan9783 because you are jealous loser. Lol. She was among the crown favorite all these time even before or after. You're lost. That's why. Lol
Totally agree. After both Q&A, my prediction was 5th Venezuela, 4th Denmark, 3rd Mexico, 2nd Nigeria. Winner Thailand.
@@borrisdillan9783We know 😂
@@travelwithnou winner wutt? The universe know Thailand was simply put there desperately to show to the world that they are powerhouse than India and the Phils hahahah! its an act of desperation as CEO is Thai hahaha! If Trump takeover the MUO again for sure Thailand is back to clapper hahaha!
During Trump era (2010-2014) Philippines always Top5!
During IMG era (2015-2021) Phils always Top5 too!
..Thailand became so jealous so they wanted to buy MUO and voila! Thailand suddenly now always Top5 hahahahahahahahahahahahhahah!
Thailand also did not win miss universe asia. this shocked me.
I was shocked too. Sympathy award was given to Ph at the expense of Thailand. Thai supporters should protest.
Phillipines was also robbed! That girl deserved a higher placement.. they knew this that's why they gave her miss uni Asia@@davidfuh9079
Absolutely. No hate to 🇵🇭 but if Thailand has made top 5 means she's already surpassed Chelsea in Asia and in the contest in general. All am trying to say is the MU this year had no logic and made no sense
I was wondering the same thing. I mean what the hell. If the Thai queen made it to the top 5, she would have been placed highest among Asian contestants. This is complete bullshit. So unfair
According to some sources, continental Queens are MUO choice while runner ups are judges choices. They're been chosen from Top 30 candidates.
MU is all about business now honestly speaking MU has been declining since 2022,now totally declined they looking for business, its between Thailand and Nigeria they deserved the crown 👑 fricking damned show , I don't know what is going on to the judges, it's very questionable??? Funny dicision 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
When Denmark gave the final answer with strong conviction and louder voice to be heard by everyone, I knew the judges could have used that as a powerful empowered woman that can influence others. She was my winner after the final q and a round. Congrats Denmark!
She was just crying out loud just to make it look good... but it was completely rigged
Usually empty vessels makes the loudest noise. Loud with a vague message I guess that’s the new agenda of Miss universe then
@ Loud voice to me sounded like she was fighting with conviction so she can be heard around the world. Loud waves are a different story’
Totally agree with you! It's insane that Thailand was not the winner or first runner-up, with Nigeria. Either Nigeria or Thailand should have won, definitely not Denmark.
And Mexico being in the top 5 was soooo wrong! 👎🏼👎🏼👎🏼
And yes, the production quality was terrible! Cheap and small stage with inadequate lighting! Poor Sheynis was in darkness for her final speech and there was a mistake in stage directions that caused her to miss the cue for her final walk.
The whole Miss Universe Organisation under JKN has been really terrible.
I agree 😢
Diabolical! That was a wonderful word for the whole Production. I am old and I couldn’t see a thing on my TV. The lighting was horrendous! What happened to Peru my first pic. I don’t know if you mentioned Miss Puerto Rico‘s dress. I think she lost because of it. I’m a Puerto Rican and she could’ve got higher up although not win. My first pic was Peru. She is stunning. I love Nigeria, but I am happy for Denmark. Aloha.
Miss grand international had better Q&A compared to Miss universe. Thailand and Nigeria did well in Q&A they deserved to be in top 3
Venezuela translator made sure to ruin her chances to win Miss Universe
Seriously Mexico with that Annabelle face managed to get 2nd runner up is the biggest joke of the year
Osmel made sure both of his girls Mexico and Argentina got placed he was also ND For Argentina when Venezuela kicked him out
Host country thanks giving spot like usa every year & brazil in 2011
She is not even beautiful & charismatic 😂
@@praveenkumar-wo2cs her botox healed just in time for competition
Mexico's makeup was harsh, and her lips looked bloated. She got into Top 5 because of host country privilege.
Her answers are off
😂😂😂 how se even make top 12
Zimbabwe and Phillipines were robbed
i agree with your comment on DR. even during the prelims. so extra. she should have joined mgi
TRuE…. pOOR MISS UNIVERSE 2023…. I COULD HARDLY SEE HER AND HER GOWN DURING HER FINAL WALK BECAUSE THEY FORGOT TO TURN ON THE LIGHT…. LIKE WHAT???
The Nigerian girl was breathtaking. I love her confidence.
I think nigeria and Thailand should be in top 2...nigeria should win this title..but latino judges proves they are worst judges once more..
MISS DENMARK HAS THE TOTAL PACKAGE. I HAVE BEEN WATCHING MISS UNIVERSE PAGEANT SINCE 1970'S AND I CONSIDER HER AS THE MOST BEAUTIFUL MISS UNIVERSE EVER EVEN SURPASSING OXANA FEDOROVA THE 2002 MISS UNIVERSE. SHE IS LIKE A LIVING BARBI DOLL AND WITH THE MOST BEAUTIFUL EYES. THE JUDGES REALLY DID AN HONEST JOB. IF THERE WAS A BIAS THEY SHOULD HAVE SELECTED A LATINA SINCE MOST OF THE JUDGES ARE LATINOS AND LATINAS.
I think the winning of Ms. Denmark was planned and pre-arranged, if you could remember, Denmark has visited both owners Ann and Raul prior to the event, and I think she was invited by two rather than visiting them. Aside from that each of the owners candidate was on top 5 , Mexico, Thailand, Venezuela. Despite of Superb performance of Filipinas on Swim suit, they don't let her enter top 12.
India definitely deserves to be in top 5🇮🇳
Production is so amateurish! Camera work was inconsistent, lighting was even worse
I think differently though I'm Nigerian. Miss Denmark deserves the win because her answers were most universally focused. Chidinma would have won if she had just included "...and the world" after her last word "Africa" when she answered the last Q&A session question.
That would be lying though... because she has not had opportunities to travel around and it would seem as overconfident
Eh. I follow the pageant and from Day one. Osmel said on Telemundo that an European should be crowned. That gave it away for me. I think Denmark deserved it. But Thailand and Nigeria deserved it more and did better on Q&As! Coming from a Puerto Rican. Let me not even get about the Mexico situation and her getting dragged along.
Her answers are rehearsed answers. Not really impressive
Racism abound here. Nigeria had the more natural non rehearsed answer
@@andreaclarke161 I dont think it was racism tbh. They just wanted an European Blonde. Because they havent had one in about 20 years. Which is fucked imo, because it should be who did the best
India should be in top 12 , it was really surprising.
Nigeria should have won , she did so good in everything but yeah its been a long time for Europe.
Bad stage, bad host, bad singers, bad light
Bad judges
Why watched then !! You 're pathetic.
Agree
Bad owner.
if Chile was indeed the winner of the popular vote, then she had to be announced as such. it's not a matter if she needs it or not.
we have the same top 3! justice for Nigeria Thailand and Venezuela. sorry to say but this is the worst edition of MU ever

But you cant be making predictions on who should have won when you dont know how they would have answered the questions😂 see why you are not the judge and you should never be
Love your reactions from Nigeria 🇳🇬❤
Can't deny I cannot believe Denmark won it's worst
And they didn't even live stream on their RUclips channel so ppl in my country couldn't even watch it 😢
To some comments here, Please understand that MU is not belongs to Thailand, it is belongs to Anne and Raoul. We send our best queens every year. Since 2015, our queens have made it to the top 10 with or without Anne. There have only been 2 years that we have unplaced. Please don't look down on us Thais, we love a clean competition.
I couldn't agree more!! I didn't even get up to watch the finals. From start to end, the worst edition of Miss Universe and it seems like it's now officially on a downhill trend. In fact it was so boring I was hardly on my instagram this year. So underwhelming!!! Also, Denmark was pretty but I believe Thailand should have won followed by either Nigeria or Venezuela.
The real top 5 I must say would have been: Peru, the Philippines, Finland, France, and Chile
Funny😂
LOL
Chile, Russia, Philippines, Nigeria and Denmark ❤️
@ no
Thank you MGI for allowing us fans watched ALL the performances in Grand TV, RUclips!!!! Gosh, Miss Universe please learn from them! Anne, pleae call Nawat personally and ask for suggestions cuz you're a walk of shame!!! Or just sell the MU off, because you're a disastrous leader!!!!!
Let's go Miss Cosmo the new era of the real Miss Universe! This year MU is such a let down, MGI still stand strong as the best pageant this year!
Just another trash. MGI it is!
I was so shocked at the lack of quality, especially with last years show being so grand and vibrant!
And I agree, Mexico had no business being in the top 5 and should have been left in the top 12
The competition just around in the hotel, no activity outside, cant promote culture and people there, so boring, the stage is so dark, should be outside the top 6 peageant.
Your feedback was spot on!!!
The Miss South African event was much better than this, I hope they bring Miss Universe 2025 to SA so that we can teach them a thing or two, this was the worst indeed. I still feel that Miss Phillipines did much better that she was given, she is so beautiful,. Congradulations to the Miss Universe 2024 , she is beautiful,
No, no serious competition should be held in a country where Xenophobia is glorified. You couldn't even congratulate your fellow African that came up 2nd. Horrible, sickening and very shameful!
lol….
Also if it comes to SA , bonang must be the host by force or they can take it elsewhere
It was biased. India and phillipines was deserving for top 5. From the very begining i felt like they were favouring Latina. May be i am wrong but it is my feeling
No india, Peru, puerto rico and DR should be in top 5... Peru, DR, venezuala, thailand, puerto rico..
@@kirtansyangden6694 I'm sorry, but the Philippines would have placed in the top five if she had advanced. When Thailand ranked in the top five during their practice questions, their responses about empathy were similar to Malaysia's. However, the Philippines' answers were more lucid. Take a look at their behind-the-scenes practice sessions; there are uploads about that video.
Sorry but India was so weak in swimsuit. Top 30 is as far as she should go. Philippines on the other hand slayed swimsuit and should have gone further
Nawat congratulated the winner
Comparing to khun anne, nawat is like an saint now😂😂
Because miss Denmark compete miss grand before
That would be a disrespect to compare Nawat with Anne. Because nawat cares a lot about his contestants. Like in Cambodia when he saw his contestants are not getting the best hospitality he instantly moved to Thailand with all contestants. The contestants had so much fun in Thailand unlike MU contestants being locked in hotel. Even after MGI has ended their titleholders are attending so many events having an amazing time.
@@2005ZION I had thought so highly of Miss Universe contests, because it is the oldest and most well known among all the beauty pageants now mushrooming all over the world. The first time I have ever watched from the start to end was this recently concluded MU 2024 and I must say that I was very disappointed.
First of all, I think the some of the judges were biased and wanted to be politically correct. Just look at the Top 5. Among them, Miss Thailand. The owner of Miss Universe organization is from Thailand, Anne Jakrajutatip. Another top 5 selection is Miss Mexico. The President of MU Raul Rocha is Mexican. Miss Venezuela was also in the Top 5. Well, the Advisory President Osmel Sousa is from Venezuela. So, there you go. I'm not sure about Miss Nigeria, but I think she got into the Top 5 because they wanted somebody from Africa who was black even though there were a lot of rumors about her conflict with Miss South Africa (who is white) prior to the final show. So, I think only the winner Miss Denmark truly deserved the crown although her Q & A answer was a mediocre one.
I'm not a big fan of Mr Nawat, the owner of MGI. However, I agree when you say that he cares a lot about his contestants. In every MGI event, he arranges many outdoor activities for the contestants with fun excursions to places of interest in the host country. It was not so with MU. Except for one trip outside Mexico City for some selected delegates and the photoshoot at the capital city's main square, the beauty queens were locked down in their hotel. My thinking is that the owners of MU were more interested in making money than in the welfare of the contestants.
Again, what a huge disappointment!
@@chosett well-said
I think now Ms grand is the best in all aspects
Without seeing the actual 3 weeks and prelims and finals in Mexico yet during the year leading up to this year’s festivities, Thailand was always my front runner. She was my best bet of those I had on my radar to show out and show up when the time arrived. I honestly didn’t look too much into Denmark(and because there were just SO many girls I had the suspicion that someone who I didn’t know much about could definitely rise to the top)but now that I know more about her it does make sense to me. 2 things with Thailand that I found notable and might have hurt her in being the judges choice. I do not not not understand why Opal wore a one-piece. I don’t understand why she wore her hair up the WHOLE prelims and finals including in her headshot. I LOVED her hair in swimsuit at Miss Universe Thailand. And just notable that her finals gown technically kind of clashes with the new crown but who would have known. But there is a thing with judges being able to visualize the girl wearing the crown. Interesting competitive year. Unfortunately we as the audience are missing one of the biggest puzzle pieces at first always, the interview.
Couldn't agree more, she looks much more nicer with her hair down and not even start with the swim suit......😢
I don't understand continental titles cause Philippines won instead of Thailand and Russia is highest placed contestant next to winner but Finland got europe title it's really confusing
Fan favourite 😂
Continental placement choice by organization and top 5 choice by Judge...

Denmark is so beautiful, there is no way she wouldn't win, they are doing reverse racism.....
For Philippines cut out from Top 12, it was rigged. Philippines would never place and be rigged as long as Khun Anne partially owns this pageant. His jealousy towards Philippines accomplishments at MU triggered her to buy the organization to bring Philippines down every year at MU. That’s what I felt when she chose to buy MUO.
Yes, Philippines was robbed
after 2021 miss universe just downgrading and today it touch bottom
What went wrong was that every photographer at the event seemed to focus exclusively on the Latin American contestants, as well as Miss Thailand and Miss Denmark, showcasing them constantly. This was evident not just on the MU app, but across all social media platforms. For instance, Miss Denmark had already met with the MU owners and officials in Thailand on September 28th, and had been practicing her interviews and catwalks since then. Her victory, therefore, didn’t come as a surprise-it felt almost orchestrated. She was allowed to be photographed and interviewed everywhere in Mexico, while other contestants were aggressively kept away from the spotlight by their chaperones. As a result, some truly beautiful contestants, like Miss United Arab Emirates and Miss Bangladesh, were largely ignored.
To make matters worse, voting for every round-from swimsuits to evening gowns-was done through monetary contributions on the MU app. The Voice for Change Award was announced, but their speeches were never shown. Perhaps the most disappointing aspect was the way contestants were reduced to mere mannequins during the evening gown segment. And as for Anne, she seemed to want all the attention for herself, much like Urvashi. Overall, it was an unfair, rigged, and ultimately disappointing event of the year.
I agree with you.. i think Denmark only won because she's 5he prettiest
Nigeria should've won
Its the plastic surgery that enhanced her beauty tho 😅chidimma n thailand looked naturally beautiful but they don't want that
Is Miss Denmark the prettiest? Really? 😁 Well, it’s an opinion.
Honestly, not to me, but hey, that's my opinion. I believe it was predetermined. The organization has been saying they want to expand into Europe, so the writing was kinda on the wall. Idk guys, I really don't know.
@@debrapillayThailand also enhance
An awesome recap! Thanks for that. I agree, this show was absolutely diabolical!
Philippines, India, Brazil deserved to be on top12
Sigh as a fan of MU I'm just really sad and disappointed by this year but hey we have a new Queen so let’s wish her a great year and hopefully next year is better. The positive, is that it's a B2B win for non sash factor countries so that's really good to see.
I've always held the opinion that for black women to win pageants, they better not make any mistakes. As beautiful as they are, they aren't shown any grace and are judged harshly. HELD TO A WAY HIGHER STANDARD. Same with indigenous women.This edition of Miss Universe showed that. As beautiful as Nigeria was, She performed well throughout the rounds. She secured and earned her top 5 spot, only to lose to a white woman who gave mediocre responses in the Q and A. Nothing against Denmark, beautiful and smart woman, but she didn't earn that crown. Her looks did. After all it's a beauty pageant. As beautiful as Nigeria is, the judges didn't find her worthy of the crown. After both rounds of Q and A, based on everyone's performance and taking everything into consideration prior, performances throughout the rounds...Ibelieved the top 2 should have been Nigeria and Thailand and I would have been satisfied with either winning. Granted I gave Nigeria the edge but, but it really was neck and neck at the line between her and Thailand.
_______
Now, when it came to the show, prelims and finals....ONE BIG ORGANIZED MESS.....Just horrible ‼️
It was so bad‼️
Nigeria spoke well but she did mot answer the question and her response sounded rehearsed her dress was horrible also
Actually it is the worst pageant asI woke early to see this but it was not at all worth it
Totally agree
Sorry to say but we will always remember because of Nigeria 🇳🇬🇳🇬🇳🇬
Philippines should be in the top 12
Yes she should
Congratulations Chelsea for winning! Chelsea will travel to 36 countries at minimum with MU. Such a rewarding accomplishment to see the world in a year. ❤
It's amazing how many people mention Zimbabwe. She is extraordinarily beautiful! At least top 5 material. When they called Miss Thailand, instead, I thought " Hmm, here we go".
But I'm glad to see new countries in top 12 like boliva and Russia they deserved but Argentina and Canada performance was underwhelming even miss Cambodia did better than them
I was also extremely disappointed with the MU production. I agree with you, the staging was very bad, so small and lack awe. Thailand and Philippines had way better production and staging for their country's 2024 MU competition. I thought the top 5 would be Thailand, Peru, Venezuela, Finland, a tie between Philippines and Russia and top 3 would have been Venezuela, Thailand, Finland. I agree with everything you mentioned. I even went out of my way to get Roku because I was hoping it was going to be a big production like last year in El Salvador, and it was not. I'm Happy though, the crown went to Denmark. 👏Congratulations Miss Denmark! 👑👑👑
I agree with you. Lots of robbed contestants, a "walking by daily in hotel lobby" activities, a very closed door interview...
Honest review 🙌💯💯 just in shock at how bad this edition was. El Salvador 2023 edition really cemented themselves as the peak edition🏆 before the fall of Miss Universe 📉
I am glad someone finally said it. That was not afinal walk for Sheynis. The stage set up. She paused in the middle of the stage and only walkedafelter her speech she walked to complete silence 😢
Thank you for your honest observation..Love from the Philippines ❤❤❤
DR had disgusting behaviour from the starting. If you guys remember even during the national competition she rudely placed the sash on the hands of Miss Dominican Republic 2023....now she again proved that she was not worthy of the crown.
Thank you for your fine analysis. I am so glad I didn't watch the whole pageant, I was SHOCKED by the poor lighting and stagecraft when I watched the recaps this morning. WTF?!? Lat year's pageant looked SO MUCH BETTER! Miss Denmark is lovely but I was also surprised by her win. Do you think the new management is heavily discounting the sash factor and promoting countries that haven't won before?
Thailand gown looks familiar I knew that design, hahahaha, its a bird design of gown, from a neighboring country...
Her designer is from the Philippines both for national and Miss Universe contests. Rian Fernandez
@GemsJoy Carry Santiago also does this kind of gowns, its a wing of birds design, I love it....

Cannot even afford and extra microphone…..point taken.
My favourite was Denmark 🇩🇰 Dominican Republic, Puerto Rico 🇵🇷 Mexico 🇲🇽 but I am happy with the winner !! About time for a beautiful blond girl!! ❤❤❤
This is the biggest disappointment for all other girls who competed this year's miss universe bcoz this pageant competition looks like biased.... Look at miss Mexico she just don't even deserve to be even in top 30. This shows hard work is not only the key to miss universe...u need to be host of the show also
You nailed it! MU seems to be going downhill.
I believe that the hosts have ALWAYS held the microphones in the Miss Universe pageant. I don't think the 2024 edition was any different than the rest when it came to the microphone issue!
