UNBELIEVABLE! Miss Universe 2025, Surrounded by Intense ‘Booing’ and Suspicion of ‘Luto’ Following Controversial Results

The Miss Universe coronation night is traditionally a spectacle of glamour and excitement, but the 74th edition of Miss Universe 2025 will be memorable not only for the beauty of the candidates, but also for the outcry and booing from the audience and fans following the release of the Top 5 and final results. This emotional reaction, which spread quickly on social media, was rooted in deep suspicions that the competition was ‘fixed’ and that deserving candidates were unfairly eliminated.
The atmosphere at the venue resembled a protest arena, where the cries of dismay were louder than the applause. The shockwave of disappointment was felt around the world, sparking widespread discussion about how fair international pageants really are these days.
The Outburst of Anger: Booing and Shouting at the Venue
From video clips and first-hand accounts, it is obvious that the crowd at the actual venue was not happy with the final results. Instead of celebrating, fans booed and shouted exclamations of frustration and disbelief. An interview with a fan from the Dominican Republic emphasized this sentiment: “Sorry, but boo. I’m from the Dominican Republic, but this cannot happen. Sorry… Gualoop (Guadeloupe) kafir deserve it. Not this. Sorry .”
The focus of the anger seems to be on the disappointment that the candidate from Guadeloupe, perceived by many as a strong contender and deserving winner, was not given a fair chance in the final rankings. This outcry is not just from one country, but a collective expression of frustration from different nationalities.
The disappointment was further heightened by reports that Mexican fans, known for their passion for pageantry, had already walked out of the venue over the results. This walkout was a powerful statement of protest and unrest that demonstrated the magnitude of the controversy.
Worse than 2015: The Comparison between Pia and Ariadna
The emotional response from fans has reached the point where netizens have compared the incident to the 2015 Miss Universe debacle, where Steve Harvey mistakenly announced the winner (from Miss Colombia to Miss Philippines Pia Wurtzbach). According to some observers, the current controversy is “even worse” because it is an alleged rigging or unfair manipulation of the results, which is a deeper issue than just human error.
This comparison underscored the depth of the disappointment. In 2015, the problem was error; now, the suspicion is about the integrity of the competition. The audience’s shouting of “Kotty Bo” (likely a mispronunciation or nickname for the deserving candidate) showed that fans had their own idea of who the real winner was and did not agree with the official announcement.
The Role of Social Media and the Perception of Filipino Fans

The controversy quickly became a hot topic on social media. Comments and analysis showed widespread disappointment, including from fans in the Philippines. Although the Philippines has great respect for Miss Universe, Filipino fans did not hesitate to express their disappointment with how the pageant was run.
The sentiment of Filipino fans reflects the global perception—that a fair competition is more important than political favors or organizational agendas. While they are proud of Miss Universe Philippines representative Ahtisa Manalo, fans are united in demanding transparency and justice for all candidates who were unfairly eliminated.
Questioning the Integrity of Pageantry
The shocking audience reaction to Miss Universe 2025 has raised deep questions about the integrity of international pageantry. For many, the pageant is no longer just a beauty contest but a powerful platform for women’s empowerment and global representation. But allegations of rigging and the obvious displeasure of the audience have undermined this purpose.
This event served as a wake-up call to the Miss Universe Organization that transparency and fairness are non-negotiable. If the concerns of fans and delegates are not addressed in an adequate and credible manner, the pageant’s reputation will continue to decline. The booing on coronation night was not just a momentary outburst; it was a demand for accountability and truth.
Ultimately, Miss Universe 2025 will be infamous not because of the winner, but because of the controversy surrounding the results. The courage of the fans who voiced their displeasure showed that the public’s voice matters, and the demand for a fair and genuine competition is unwavering. The legacy of the pageant will depend on how the organization responds to this crisis and how they restore trust in the fairness of the Miss Universe crown.
