“I’VE never done anything in my face, never. I’ve never even done plastic surgery in my face. No. Her saying that, she will have to prove it I guess,” kini ang tubag ni Miss Earth 2016 Katherine Espin sa Ecuador sa alegasyon ni Miss Philippines Imelda Schweighart nga retokada siya.
Kahinumduman mikatap ang video ni Schweighart, diin iyang kahinabi ang iyang supporters human sa pageant, ug iya kining gisaway pinaagi sa pagsulti labot kang Espin nga, “Yung nanalo peke ilong, peke baba, peke boobs! Miss Earth, dapat natural.”
Hugot kining gipanindigan ni Schweighart tungod kay mismong si Espin daw mismo ang nagsulti niini dihang nahimo silang roommates sa pageant.
Nahimo usab nga isyu ang akusasyon ni Schweighart nga ang yellow gown nga gisul-ob sa Ecuadorian beauty queen unta alang kaniya.
Human pa sa pageant nagpagawas pa og video si Schweighart nga sul-ob ang maong gown.
Matod ni Espin nga wala nahuman sa fashion designer nga si Leo Almodal ang gown nga iyang gipahimo niini alang sa Miss Earth pageant.
“When I got into top 16, I was like, ‘Where’s my dress?’ His assistant was telling me, ‘We didn’t finish. We have this yellow dress. Try this yellow dress.’ I’ve never even tried the yellow dress in my life. I never even knew how it looked on me. They just put it on me and I never knew it was Imelda’s dress.”
Matod pa sa Miss Earth, “Imagine, I [did not have] a dress. It was crazy backstage. No one knows about this. I think Imelda got upset about this. She must know that it wasn’t my fault. It was actually a misunderstanding with Leo. He didn’t know what to do. I’m clarifying that right now.
“Leo will do it on social media and probably have an interview explaining all these issues. It’s his responsibility actually,”
Sa Facebook post ni Almodal gibutyag niini nga unta ang yellow nga gown maoy sul-obon ni Schweighart kung nakasulod kini sa semifinals. Wala pa usab kini nakakuha og bayad gikan sa Filipino-German beauty queen.
Gibutyag sab niini nga siya ang adunay katungod nga magbout kung kinsa ang pasul-obon sa gown ug alang kini kang Espin.
Gibutyag sab ni Espin nga dili siya gapaapekto sa mga intriga ug unsa pa nga isyu tungod kay bout niyang himoun iyang tahas isip bag-ong Miss Earth.
“Despite any of the things that I’ve seen, I am happy with what I’ve done. I’ve done my best. There have been many rumors but I don’t really pay attention to any of that because I know what I’ve done,” butyag niini.
