Miss Universe contestants have staged a mass walkout in Thailand after Miss Mexico was publicly humiliated and called a “dummy” by a senior pageant boss.
00:00Miss Universe contestants have walked out in protest after a senior organizer publicly humiliated Miss Mexico during a live stream ceremony in Thailand.
00:30She's done and she talked by herself.
00:33As a woman, we have respect. They need to have respect for us.
00:39I'm here representing a country and it's not my fault that you have problems with my organization.
00:44No, no. Listen. Listen. You must listen to me and then when I argue you...
00:55Stop. Stop. Security.
01:00Vice President Nawat Itzara-Grisil berated Fatima Bosch for skipping a sponsor shoot, calling her a dummy before demanding security escort her out.
01:11I truly love Tyler. I respect all of you. I think that you are amazing people.
01:17But what just your director did is not respectful.
01:21He called me dumb because he had problems with the organization and I think that's not fair.
01:27And he just shut me and he just said to me and shut up and a lot of different things.
01:32And I think that the world needs to see this because we are empowered women and this is a platform for our boys.
01:39And no one can shut our boys and no one will do that to me.
01:45And I hope that everyone at home, every woman, doesn't matter if you have a big dream, if you have a crown.
01:51If that takes away your dignity, you need to go. Thank you.
01:55As Bosch left, dozens of contestants followed in solidarity with reigning Miss Universe Victoria Tilvig condemning the treatment as beyond disrespectful.
02:06To trash another girl is beyond disrespectful and it's nothing I as a person can tell you.
02:14That's why I'm taking my phone and I'm going.
02:16Oh my God! Oh my God! Oh my God!
02:18The Miss Universe organization responded by reaffirming its commitment to diversity, empowerment and inclusion ahead of the Bangkok final on November 20th.
02:29I think you must understand the pressure is a lot. I am the human. Sometimes I cannot control.
02:38First, I have to apologize for the delegate. If anyone affects and not comfortable, it happens. I'm so sorry.
02:59Well, I think you must understand the pressure is a lot. If someone harms the people's face, without any means and it attempts to be in.
03:08I don't know if you have to be a woman, you may not be able to avoid it.
03:11You may not know if anybody hurts your feet or anything, but you are things that you should not control.
03:14I don't know if anybody hurts your feet or anything. I don't know if anybody hurts your feet or anything.
03:20So please, take a look at this of the pic.
03:22I don't know if you want to take a look.
03:24The problem is that anytime you don't know if we always want to go to the opposite side of your face,
