LAS VEGAS, Nevada – Donald Trump has officially told Miss Philippines, Pia Wurtzbach and Miss Japan, Ariana Miyamoto that they are in fact “Fired.”
The ‘Don’ is the owner of the Miss Universe Pageant and has decided to disqualify the two based on the idea that both are “half & half” - no silly, not the coffee creamer – neither one of them are pure to the country – Pia is half Filipino and half German, while Ariana is half Japanese and half African-American.
26-year-old Miss Philippines is a Filipino-German actress and model - this was her 3rd attempt at the crown for the Philippines and now it appears she will not be going onward to the Miss Universe Pageant.
Trump has taken some heat for his decisions saying “the goal of Miss Universe is to choose a world beauty that represents her country to the fullest extent. Having a half and half candidate from any participating country is not in keeping with the Miss Universe ideals.”
The ‘Don’ has been accused of racism – he responded to that by saying “this is not about racism. Rather, it is about celebrating the purity of diversity in our universe.”
No doubt the heat will be on, and ‘Don’ may be the next guest appearing in “Hell’s Kitchen” in the hot seat over “half & half” creamers, di ba.
