Pageant Organisers Fight Beauty Queen Over $100,000 Crown

Her brief reign might be over, but Myanmar’s
first ever beauty queen has refused to give back
her $100,000 (£60,300) crown after being

dethroned. May Myat Noe was only crowned
Miss Asia Pacific 2014 three months ago, but
was stripped of her title last week after being
labelled a liar and a thief by South Korean
pageant organizers.
In an emotional press conference, Ms May
denied been a liar and a thief. She told
reporters she was forced to lie about her age
and the organisers had demanded that she have
a head-to-toe plastic surgery.
They however dethroned her last week after
also having problems with her mom over how
the beauty queen will be managed.
Ms May who has left the country denied running
off with the crown which she has refused to give
the organisers back, but claimed she was
already in the plane when she heard she was
dethroned. She also says, she’s ready to give
back the $100,000 crown, but the organisers of
the pageant must apologise for calling her a liar
and a thief.
The organisers are now trying to get the police
involved so they could retrieve the crown.
