Miss Universe Philippines 2022 Celeste Cortesi clarified her post about Miss Universe PH 2024 after receiving criticism on social media.
It can be recalled that Celeste raised the eyebrows of some pageant fans due to her cryptic message, which was interpreted as her reaction to the result of the prestigious event.
“WHAT JUST HAPPENED #muph2024,” she wrote.
After her tweet, Celeste wrote another post to praise Miss Universe Philippines 2024 4th Runner-Up Christi Lynn McGarry.
“Ang ganda ganda ni Christi tas perfect yung answer nya,” she wrote.
Her tweets were criticized as some netizens saw her tweets as her way to express her disappointment that Christi didn’t win the title. Instead, the one who was crowned was Miss Bulacan Chelsea Manalo.
Netizens also reminded Celeste about the Top 16 Miss Universe streak she ended.
However, Celeste clarified that she was only talking about the confusion in the program flow of the show.
According to her, people must stop making issues and try to make it look like she opposed the result of the pageant.
“Ya’ll need to chill. Haha. What I meant by what happened is how the other crowns were distributed. Where’s Cainta? where’s Taguig? Stop trying to make an issue, I have my bets but I fully support whoever wins,” she stated.
