Miss Grand International revokes Miss Grand Myanmar 2nd runner-up title
Metro Manila, Philippines— Miss Grand International has announced that it has withdrawn the 2nd runner-up title of Miss Grand Myanmar Thae Su Nyein on two grounds..
“The Miss Grand International Organization has decided to revoke the title of 2nd Runner-Up from Miss Grand Myanmar 2024, Ms. Thae Su Nyein due to inappropriate behavior and actions that violated several regulations,” the group said.
Prior to the announcement Su Nyein already said on her social media account that she will be returning the crown.
"I'm not controlled by anyone, I just take my own decisions. I give back my second runner-up crown just because we don't get what we deserve: Our National Costume prize, our Country Power of the Year — not the winner crown,” she said.
The beauty queen said she has no one to hold liable.
"I'm not blaming my sisters. I love India, I love the Philippines, they're my best sisters of all, I don't blame them," she said.
A viral video of Su Nyein after the pageant has circulated online showing her crying and her national director removing her crown while assisting her out of the venue.
“What makes her so delusional?If she wants first place and must have it, I suggest she create her own pageant so she can win every title,” Miss Grand International president Nawat Itsaragrisil said at a press conference.
