I love it that a non-sash factor country won! Loved Miss Nicaragua from the beginning and had her as my favorite to win.
me too. I saw ms Sheynnis during the arrivals & know instantly that she will make it to top 5 & will win. Never get tired looking at her. Very deserving Queen ! ❤
Nicaragua was the winner the moment she stepped out in swimsuit in the prelims. Everyone knew it was gonna be her, even if they have loyalty towards other contestants
She had that overall impact. Breaking it down, she did not have the best body, or best gown, or even the prettiest face. But she had the best overall “package”.
As a Nicaraguan I really appreciate your support to Sheyniss from the very beggining. We are so proud of her performance and achievements, for us winning Miss Universe is a dream that came true. Sheyniss and her family worked so hard to be where she is right now.
I hope to see in the next Miss Universe competitions more opportunities for non- sash countries. Hugs and kisses from Nicaragua 💙🤍💙
Soy Boriqua. This incredible young lady was my pick from the beginning!! Her story is just as amazing as she is. The First Miss Universe Nicaragua! So very happy for the precious people of her country! ❤🎉🙏
Non sash countries win all the time at MU until the mid 2000s.
Thank you for your recap. I was so bummed when India, South Africa and USA didn't make it to the top 10. Your explanation cleared it up. When I saw Puerto Rico and Phillipines in gown, my jaw dropped. They were stunning. I still don't understand why Michelle didn't advance. All the women were amazing, it was just a really strong group this year. Thank you for breaking down Miss Nicaragua's answers the crowd was screaming and I could barely hear.
when the owners knew that ms. ph. move to the top 5 he's very
mad so that instead of ms. ph. he replaced it to ms. thailand even if she's not deserving to the top 10(the walk and the body is not good as some girls who didn't make it to the top 10.
they don't want Philippines to win again and anymore🥵
@@James-tc6isoh stop already with the crazy conspiracy theories … Thailand deserved to be in top 5
@@James-tc6is non-sense shit. Thailand is way better than Philippines.. I noticed Filipinos always bitter towards Thailand despite being an Asian neighbor... The most toxic fans in every comment section.
@@jonathanmiley9111 Yeah but Colombia no way she is a mother already so she should join MRS Universe instead.
@@jonathanmiley9111 Thailand's performance was weak from the start...but because she's Thailand...you know already what's the amswer...😅
I love Philippines but the stars aligned for Nicaragua. She was giving the Miss Universe glow ✨
They were trying to align them to Thailand but she just did not deliver her answer well. I’m glad that Nicaragua won.
very elementary Q&A basic.
it’s not because nicaragua is a non-sash country that people are surprised. it was the girl herself that made her win. she was the FORCE to beat that night. No doubt!!!
Definitely! It was her preparation, presence and authenticity that came through. She was consistent and looked like she was having so much fun, and that made her stand out among some incredible contestants. She earned the win, not because of her country
I felt really happy that Nicaragua has won the title this year. Every time she was on the stage, she was stunning. I personally like Puerto Rico, she reminded me of the younger Penelope Cruz! I really couldn't understand how Australia reached the top 3. It would have been better if it was either Colombia or Puerto Rico.
I have been watching your channel for the last two years and it gives me great joy that your channel is growing fast. Hope to see you from Mexico next year. Finally, this year's show was so phenomenal. The stage and the production were just outstanding!
Puerto Rico was top 3 material but when it was time to do the talk, she got nervous and almost stuttered through her response. Colombia made it all about being a mother (yes we get it!!!!) so Australia snuck into the top 3 under radar. But she couldn’t get past Thailand and Nicaragua.
Nicaragua chose Mary Wollstonecraft (one of the OG feminist writers, wrote "A Vindication of the Rights of Woman," contemporary of Rousseau and mother of Mary Shelley, who wrote "Frankenstein"), she and the translator just stumbled over the surname. When I heard the question I knew Nicaragua was going to nail it, she had Mary W in her Miss Universe bio and everything. The stars really aligned for her and she just had the winner's glow about her ever since prelims.
P.S. Love you. I look forward to your videos and my pageant season isn't complete without your recap.
Hello!! It's finally time for my Miss Universe recap! I am so happy to share my thoughts on this show with you. If you'd like to hear even more insights you should check out the memberships edition of this episode! Stay tuned for more Miss Universe 2023 content! You'll find it here >>> bit.ly/3av7tCo
We want TRANSPARENCY. Show the scores immediately like in the 90’s. ❤
Not because you're rooting for Philippines & she lose then you complaint that much. Canadian didn't even complain last 2018 edition knowing she wore delicate gown too
@@joerexdelosreyes8495canada gown last 2018 is nah nah.. That's why she didnt place at top 5. Hahahaha
@@juneldelsocorro4046 oh really? So it's all about gowns now? 🤣🤣🤣 How about Thailand 2020? & South Africa 2022?
@@joerexdelosreyes8495Nah canada didnt place because she looks sweet as Taylor Swift she looks good in Miss International than MU
@@tambayan-ph2619 yeah maybe... But the point of that complainant is different
Miss Nicaragua took my attention from the time of arrival, she looked like a winner from the beginning. Its only after prelims that some pagent commentator I follow praised Nicaragua. According to me she's the best. Although I am sad for the placement of SA and PH.
Nicaragua's answers in both questions sealed the crown for her❤
beacause they didnt include Miss Ph thats y
Namibia’s placement is truly, truly legendary for us. Hopefully, moving forward, we can get behind our girls more and push them, like we did her, but this is a start, surely.
I loved her, she was always in my top 10 list 🎉
Super happy for Nicaragua. Well-deserved. Love from 🇵🇭❤️👼
If Miss Ph could've been there at top 3, Nicaragua won't be the Miss Universe. Michelle is intellegent and speaks from the heart.
@@springvalley5094 Well, that’s probably the reason why they dodnt put her in the top 5 coz MMD was gonna eat that mic with no crumbs a left. And the questions were basic and very barangay peagent. ✌🏽🇵🇭👼❤️🥂
CAMEROON❤❤❤What can I say? She was amazing! She represented our country well and won our FIRST TOP 20 placement! 🇨🇲🇨🇲🇨🇲🇨🇲🇨🇲so proud
Oh my gosh! She was so deserving! She was in my prelims episode too! She really impressed me!
Continue to work for the crown. If Namibia, Botswana and Angola did it, so can Cameroon!
Every fan should behave like you. Very gracious with whatever the outcome instead of those other fans spewing hate because their candidate didn't make it. ❤
Yes, our country made it😭❤️🇨🇲
Dear Dani. Thanks for your feedback. I'd like to add up a few details on your summary.
- Despite El Salvador did well with the stage production & hosting the event successfully, I still feel the finals lack El Salvadoran cultural presentation in it. I'd love to see a similar event to the 2011 MU pageant in Brazil where they had Samba and bossanova performers during swimsuit and EG competitions. This year I expect to see at least a Salvadoran band to accompany the swimsuit portion & John Legend in other sessions.
- I was hoping that Namibia or S.Africa would move forward, at least one african contestant in top 10.
- Mary Wollstonecraft was a philosopher and authoress known for her advocacy for women's rights. In her book "the vindication of the rights of women, 1792, she encouraged for equal opportunity for men and women, specially with education and career. Twas awesome for Nicaragua for choosing Mary W and highlights the history of women's achievement dance 18th century.
Meanwhile, Thailand chose Malala, who was born before her. For this type of question, it'd be more wise for choosing someone in the past and having him/her as role model
A round of applause for the production team. And am so proud of Rbonney😘.
And congratulations to Nicaragua for bagging the fisrt crown.
N congratulations to the other delegates for fighting hard❤️
A round of applause after their mixed up of the results between Ms Phil and Ms Thailand?. They should have cleared it right away before they proceed . Issuing apology after 5 days?
Miss Universe season is not complete without your incredible recap🎉🎉
Thank you for coming to watch it
Nicaragua referenced Mary Wollstonecraft...
I was shocked Philippines didn’t reach top 5 but I was so surprised Myanmar Laos or even Singapore didn’t even placed but Thailand achieving its highest placement since 1988 is just wow they were so close but their third crown is coming but still michelle dee deserved top 5 I mean her evening gown was just wow 🤩🤩🤩😍😍 but ughhhh 😤😤😤😤 but still congrats to so many history making like Nepal Pakistani Portugal Colombia but still congrats to the history making winner Nicaragua 🇳🇮🇳🇮🇳🇮
Anntonia did great
Thailand was top 5 in 2017 when SA won. Or am I wrong now?
@@j.d.devilliers4935yes you’re right thailand made top 5 in 2017,2019 and now 2023 they made it past top 5
Yes absolutely right! Ms. Philippines should be placed in top 5.
Philippians was the stand out gown, the details were so interesting and I loved it in black with her short hair. Love, love, love ❤️
I feel that Nicaragua had an advantage as she had time in between pauses for the translator to speak allowing her time to think of her answer. But she was great either way and deserved the win.
That's what I think also when she was interviewed by Ms dyan cqstillejo from the Philippines, she can understand and speak English !
@@aprealstatetraveletc.. Her english was limited that Diane spoke in Spanish as well. She did not have the advantage at all, she stopped because of Colombia's rude moment from 2015 towards her interpreter and she wouldn't want a backlash.
I was really happy for nicaragua is the first time they won
Nicaragua just came there to claim her crown just like Catriona back in 2018 ❤❤
How do you feel about the set of questions this year? Because for many, they found it a little too easy compared to previous years.
Catriona is incomparable. She has a league of her own. But I am happy that Nicaragua won! So deserving of that.
That is what I do not get. Fans had complained about the questions given to the delegates being unfair, too hard , too political and too controversial. So this year they gave each contestant a question that have the same level of difficulty across the board so it’s a more even level playing field and fans still complain.
I love that Nicaragua won!! Well deserved win ...as you said Dani, I hope this inspires other non Sash factor countries. I wish for an amazing year for our new Miss Universe. Based on what you said Dani, some video suggestions could be a series on how some dark horse countries could win in the upcoming years similar to that video you did for India, countries who have never won a title or haven't won in a while e.g. Jamaica, I'm Jamaican so that's why they're the 1st country I think of.
I just had a strong feeling that it was going to be a Latina who took the crown this year for a few reasons. Also, loved the production this year!!
Ms. PH said how she wished holding the mic in the Top 5 and would slay it since she prepared for it for a year. She said it was "destiny". Thank you Queen Dani for appreciating her unique black gown ❤❤❤
Dani, Australia and Nicaragua wore sound proof headphones. We just didn't see it. I went back and rewatch it.
Nicaragua is the new powerhouse. More winners in the future.❤
Thank you for a great recap, spot on! Congratulations to Miss Nicaragua/Universe well deserved win! She is EXQUISITE!
Miss Nicaragua was the rightful winner of the night, though Australia was giving me 1970's Lauren Hutton's vibes.
Its so cool to see a non sash factor country winning...Nicaragua was my winner after The prelims..Though i wanted Philipined amd Thailand to win as I am there fan for many years
MMD will always be a well-loved Miss Universe Philippines. She did a very good job - outstanding SS performance, stunning gown, solid advocacy & strong leadership skills. I cannot ask for more. She is my Miss Universe with or without a crown. 👑
Glad you are accepting the outcome without pointing fingers and calling it a cooking show etc etc.
Move on na
@@dormamo6917ayaw namin
Iykyk 😂
I miss those MU days where judges' scores were flashed on TV after each candidate's turn.
Same here
@@DaniWalker flashing scores may diminish the element of surprise but it would at least be an extended transparency for MUO.
We want transparency.
@@springvalley5094 yes especially now that MU's integrity is put into question as to the hows and whys in selecting the top 10 and 5.
Same too! They need to bring it back!
She deserves the crown! Thank you for the non-biased review. ❣
It’s a given fact that everyone always thinks & wants ones country to be on top or #1. However, in reality it’s just more than the physical looks/appearance/beautiful face or having millions of followers. The panel of judges was quite diverse in ages, ethnic backgrounds, careers, & public notorieties. I think they all came up with the right choice…Miss Nicaragua 🇳🇮 was impeccably amazing on coronation: aside from her statuesque beauty, she exuded confidence, poise, charisma separated from the rest…her final Q&A was exceptional with depth and meaningfulness!
I didn’t follow any of these candidates like most hardcore fans. Just from the prelim, I predicted Nicaragua-Thailand-Columbia would be top 3, but on coronation off the bat I knew 🇳🇮 would win!
Congrats again Miss 🇳🇮….a 👑
well-deserved👍
Some pointers:
1. Top 3 did have headphones on
2. It was Mary Wollstencraft in Sheynnis' answer - women right's activist
3. Wonderful review as always
One of the best editions EVER of Miss Universe and best winners ever.
Best in Swimwear was Nicaragua . Best in evening gown was Thailand. Best Top 5 answer was Thailand. Puerto Rico should have advanced but she got nervous , made worse when she chose to not use the translator . Best answer in Top 3 was a toss between Thailand and Nicaragua. But it was clear the crowd was cheering on Nicaragua and Anntonia was pressured and could not deliver a stronger answer. You could tell she skipped a beat. Its really tragic because she was the overall best girl for the crown . Australia was beautiful and consistent that's why she went so far . Philippines performance at prelims was stronger than finals night. Her gown was stunning but she was fading behind the front runners like Thailand, Nicaragua , Colombia and Puerto Rico. You could tell she was under too much pressure to deliver. Unpopular opinion : I prefer her prelim gown more . The Filipinos are emotional about it but It was clear that She was a solid Top 6, but not Top 5.
Thank you for a very great recap and analysis as always. Congratulations to Nicaragua. Sending love to you and all countries from Thailand. ❤
There were sound proof headphones for the girls. They mentioned it on the English case they were waiting for them to be on. Also you could see as Thailand was approaching for the question they had 2 people approaching with the head phones for the other girls. The issue was the camera work and transitons weren’t as tight this year.
If anyone could notice when Nicaragua appeared during evening gown her blue cape perfectly blended with the flowing waterfall in the background...that moment the judges must have already been convinced shes the winner
I also have been telling from the start Australia will be in top 3 when none of the beauty pageant experts included her in top ten or worse many even ignored her...had her answer been the best she would have been the winner...i almost thought she win the moment the map in the background is of Australia right before the final results were to be announced ....this apart from the fact that the last time an Aussie was crowned the pageant was held in a non sash latin american country (Ecuador)
Another observation is MU is favouring faces which were typical in Trump era more and more ...although there was a transgender, plus size and fully covered contestant like Pakistan in top twenty MU is slowly reviving many of the erstwhile glam aspects like having John Legend and the classiest evening gown in IMG era and prefering more glamouorous faces like Australia Colombia reminiscent of trump era
I love your comments!! When answering the final question, they had headphones. I was in the audience, and they couldn’t hear the question in advance. The show was AMAZING! Hope to see you in Mexico.
If Pakistan had made it to the top 10, she'd have easily made it to the top 5 based on that spectacular evening gown!
Very happy for the winner.She nailed it.
I have the same feeling when I saw her enter el Salvador and with all her round on stage I knew she going to win. Congrats to her 🎉
All the fans from the sash countries are screaming for transparency and disclosure of scores. They are so used to see their delegates moving forward in the competition that they cannot accept the fact that this year, they got bested by a non sash delegate from out of the blue. Hoping this is what is going to continue to happen moving on. Seeing the people of Nicaragua celebrating was the best thing I have seen in years… apparently seeing other people being happy for a win angers them.
Funny you should mention this. I just asked Dani for her opinion on posting scores. It would certainly answer some questions and hopefully stop the complaining.
I don't think it was about not accepting who won. It could happen to other countries who sent strong candidates especially when someone didn't deserve to be up there. Who says people were not happy for Nicaragua? you are over exaggerating.
Those pageant fans whining complaining and calling the show "fixed" because their delegate didn't make it are so toxic and can't accept defeat graciously. What they are doing is tarnishing their country and future candidates.
We are happy that Ms. Nicaragua won. Pinoys feel that she deserves it. We just want tramsparency in the scores especially when they made a mistake (?) of putting Michelle in IG top 5 then she wasnt included in the top 5 in the actual pageant.
@@nikita5662 have you seen the top 5 pic that was posted by MU El Salvador? Then deleted and change it? How can you make a mistake in putting the right name and picture?
Hi Dani. Raylene from western Canada. Sending you an early Happy American Thanksgiving for Thursday. I hope your travels home via planes will go smoothly and I often say this to friends and family who are flying …. “I wish you a very boring flight there and back”. With so many delays and weather issues and overbooked flights. I think a boring flight means all went smoothly and without any issues. 😊😊😊. So that’s my prayer for you as you travel home for Thanksgiving. Now about the pageant. Sooooooooo wow!!!!!!!! What a fabulous show. And the top 20. Incredible. Your recap is always the highlight for me following any pageant especially miss universe. When I watched the preliminary competition. And miss Nicaragua came out in her swimsuit. I knew right then she was the one to beat. She seems so down to earth and her personality invites you in. So genuine. Much like yourself!!! You are so humble, down to earth and your personality invites one in too. I wish I spoke Spanish. The media week has started and I haven’t found much in English. The whole competition was tremendous and that speaks to me of the calibre of all the women and especially the top 20. Down to the top 3. What a competitive year. I could say so much more. But I will leave it at this. I’m grateful to have been able to see the competition. And even more grateful for you and your channel. With pageants in Canada not very popular. I love that you give a place for individuals like myself to feel a sense of community so that there is a place for me to share in the excitement of miss universe. Thank you for all you do for us pageant fans and contestants alike. Cheers Raylene 🎉🎉 🎉
I have 3 words to describe your look GURL ... FAB-U-LOUS!!! I wish I took a screen shot because I was watching a live stream of the pre-pageant and at 7:52 pm, I said 2023 was going to make history with Pakistan, Nepal & Portugal making history being selected for the Top 20 but my first-ever prediction of the eventual winner before the finals started with Miss Nicaragua winning.
I know you touched on it, but was there any reason given why only group 1 in swimsuit prelims wore the capes?
I heard an interview with Sheynnis (Nicaragua) where she mentioned dancing to the headphones while on stage. I didn't watch that part so not sure. But just wanted to interject this information since you mentioned the contestants didn't have headphones. Not sure if it was for one set of questions and not the other, or both. Also, I would have liked for you to have included your reaction to USA and maybe some of your other favorites not advancing to Top 10 and why you thought that was. Overall, great recap! Thank you :)
Dani, there were headphones for the other 2 finalists, but whether the headphones were ON or not, none of the hosts checked that. Side note: the pageant was streamed live on TH-cam in other countries.
17:25 YES, all three finalists did wear headphones! As soon as Thailand went on stage to do her final question, the blonde host (sorry I forgot her name) did in fact say: "Ok Thailand! You are up first, please join us. LADIES, IF YOU'LL ACCEPT THE HEADPHONES, THE SOUND-PROOF HEADPHONES, make sure those are on tight!" The camera was seen from a top shot that faintly showed Nicaragua and Australia already holding the HS's in their hands.
Hi Dani, great video. Miss Nicaragua's answer to the final question was referring to Mary Wollstonecraft, one of the earliest feminists and advocate of women's rights from Great Britain.
Literally no one can give a recap like you Dani!!! So knowledgeable and well spoken. I love how you noticed Anntonia’s evening gowns variations!! I feel like besides Thai people, not a lot of people realized that. It was a nice surprise, but somehow the final night dress didn’t not impress me. I feel like she could’ve done something more iconic to secure that crown. Also I love the production and styling in MUT, something that MU didn’t give to Anntonia!! She would’ve shined in finals! All those little details costed her the crown. It makes me sad.
The sad part about the closure of MU this season is saying goodbye to the candidates who became their friends.
True😭
been waiting for your review dani and i am soooo happy!! THANK YOU♥♥♥
Aside from the actual pageant, your recap is one of the things i really look forward to, thank you! Just an observation, the pageant was all about transformation last year, and rbonney really embodied it. Pia W's year was about being confidently beautiful. I think this year, it is what was lacking and the questions during the Q&A were not as thought provoking, what are your thoughts? 🤔
Nicaragua gave Catriona vibes...from the minute she hit the stage she dominated. Also...there were headphones for the final 3.
As always, wonderful recap! Although you missed/skipped El Salvador in your evening gown review (what are your thoughts of her?) Also, there were headphones for the final 3.
Yes, there certainly were headphones during the Top 3 round!! It would have been very unfair for the other two not to have them.
Some fans of the countries who “always” make it to top 20, top 10, or top 5…but didn’t make it this year…need to get a clue! Your representative just didn’t make it this year!! (And Philippines’ black gown was not suited for finals…so there’s that!)
Full thoughts on finals are available in a special memberships episode :)
Thank you for your recap! I always enjoy Your videos!
As for the headphones for the final Q&A, I recall one of the hosts, Maria Menunos I believe, stating that the other contestants put them on before they asked Australia the question. I don’t think it was seen on the telecast.
Nicaragua had been a favorite since she won her nationals. There was something about her that made people gravitate towards her
Thank you for your feedback 🥰 I loved your video recap! But just 1 thing: there were headphones in the top 3 Q&A 😁
Dani, You Are The Best!!! As a fan of pageants for many years, it is wonderful to hear your comments on all pageants:) Keep up the great work!:)
Thank you so much!!
love your recaps. i learn a lot from you
💕💕💕thank you!!
mmd not in the top 5 is puzzling to me. nicaragua deserves her win. no question in that. still proud of mmd.
Hi Dani. The top 3 did have noise canceling headphones on.
Waiting for your recap Miss Dani.. Excited to hear your opinion. ❤❤❤
Thank you!
Dani! SO appreciate your support and defense of Colombia’s EG performance. I feel like it’s been super easy and, dare I say, “trendy” to attack what seems to be the same color/design of the gowns in recent years. When in reality, each dress and design has been inspired & unique to the girl wearing it. They’re all pieces of art that should be celebrated and have clearly helped our delegates advance. At the end of the day, as we know, it’s not the dress that wins but the actual candidate and what she has to say and do in the gown that counts. PS also thought that Camila had done enough to make it to the top 3 like you did, but alas. Thanks again for your amazing analysis! ❤
Also - additional MU content - would love to see you list candidates you’ve seen the last year at other grand slams that you think have the goods and should try for their country’s National MU competitions. 🤓
You're very welcome
We can agree to disagree, Philippines 🇵🇭 deserved to be on the top 5. Baffling that she got all the awards...and yet she didn't advance? She showed strong during the gown competition. Congratulations to Nicaragua!
Then you do think should you exclude?
Philippines shouldn’t have gone to the evening gown round to be very honest. India performance was way better than Philippines
@@sexybeauty1124Have you seen how diva your representative was? lol trying so hard to be the main character, she deserved her placement you should be happy she even placed tho with that attitude? hahahaha
😂😂😂😂In memory Miss Universe because our new brandnane for pageant Miss Grand Universe 2024 club circus pageant by merging Nawat and AnnKuJutakap
@@whatsthepointoflivingifudo4427 but her performance was way better than urs. You guys are so bitter when she didn’t get into Top 5 you pinoy fans will try to find someone to blame like Thailand didn’t deserve this and that or because The owner of MUO is Thai. You guys so pathetic
I have no idea that they didn't put headphones on the contestants in the final Q A for top 3 which puts the first contestant to respond at a big disadvatage. Also using an interpreter and pausing along the way is a very smart tactic. I wish they had headpieces like in a conference and it was simultaneous translation both for asking and responding..anyways congrats to Nicaragua for their first win. We in Thailand are incredibly proud of Anntonia for making it into the final round for the first time in 35 years 🎉
They did have noise canceling headphones.
They did put the headphones
You need to see it again
@@sanidhyatrivedi4689 Thank you for clarifying.. I didn't see the other contestants putting on headphones in the official telecast even after replaying. I was hoping to see it from one of the fan cams in the audience but haven't found it yet. I was surprised Dani mentioned they didn't wear headphones.
@@dewraemee No problem! In the official stream you can see at 1 hour 45th minute they do mention it
They did have headphones for the final answer. Maybe they cut if of on Telemundo. But the transmisión I saw they explained it before they started the final answer and presented as they put the headphones during the first to answer.
I always love your recaps even thought I watch every single moment many times like a hawk judging for Global Beauties... and teaching young contestants. Its just your recaps have such a great points that I even miss too... I keep on learning from you new way at looking at the little details and points every time..
And OMG NICARAGUAAAAA... I have put her in prediction for GB since day one and I am so happy we got it right. She is amazing.
Nice recap, Dani. First of all, the woman who Miss Nicaragua was referencing in her Final 3 question was Mary Wollstonecraft, mother of Mary Shelley (author of Frankenstein). Now I have a question for you, Dani, there seems to be a bit of controversy swirling around attached to this year's pageant which I'm not going to get into. Do you see the possibility of transparency within the Miss Universe Organization occurring to the degree where scores are made available for those who may question them? Thanks
Because some of the powerhouse delegates either didn’t advanced into the top 10 or top 5? The only controversy is that the powerhouses may now be looking into the possibility that their sashes will no longer be relevant.
well because the actual MU el salvador page posted a different top 5 before they deleted it and change into a diff contestant and someone took a shot of them double checking the result and aside from us, 3 of the judges there already spoke and wondering why that candidate was not in top 5 so we know that powerhouse that you mentioned is deserving to be up there, in short she was robbed.
@@kl3658 , it was human error, not some conspiracy.
If it was an error, it should've been corrected on the spot like when Steve announced the wrong winner in 2015
Oh do spill whaha
Loved it🙌🏽❤️❤️❤️ btw they did have the headphones on
Imagine if Australia choose PRINCESS DIANA😮 that would have been a show stopping answer
headphones were used. The hosts spoke about it, and if you notice on the telecast there were 2 assistants who moved toward the queens. The telecast just didnt focus on them as they waited.
Hi Dani. I am sure you missed it. I watched the live show from my country on TH-cam and sound proof headphones were provided to Australia and Nicaragua. There's a clear announcement from one of the hosts for Australia and Nicaragua to accept the headphones and we could also see two women putting the headphones on for Australia and Nicaragua. I understand that when the girls were heading towards the centre stage we couldn't see headphones being removed because of the camera placements but they did have them on.😊
Nicaragua was amazing in Finals, regardless of the content of her answer she was the most compelling in her delivery, that being said the woman she talked about was Mary Wollstonecraft was not born until 1759 so that was the only reason I was worried she wouldn’t win but I figured the judges might miss that detail especially since the interpreter did not fully understand how to pronounce Mary’s last name.
20:50 I am so happy for you Dani. Love from New Zealand ❤😊
The BEST top-2 Thailand and Nicaragua ❤ also love to see Colombia in the top-3
Australia was better than Colombia.
Thanks for this review Miss Dani !!!.
You're one of the only creators who acknowledged Thailand's hard work! People truly love to hate on her. I was also soooo sad that Philippines was in top 5, I looooved her g❤wn! It was my favorite ever😂
IM LIVING FOR THIS RECAP EPISODE❤ Deni is always giving real thoughts, super on point critiques and never mean, just constructive.
Lovely review!
Thank you!
We all appreciated those who are non-sash factor countries and make it to the top-20, but we should not dim out the spotlight for those countries who are exerting more efforts and bringing new ideas to uplift the organization and filling-up highest score for every category, we cannot ignore those countries effort or aspiration to be in the top5, just because we get bored of them.
Mary Wollestonecraft Shelley. The writer of Frankenstein, who was one of the first feminists in the feminist theory genealogy.
Dani, you must go to Mexico 🇲🇽 !! We need you there !
"If you could live one year in another woman’s shoes, who would you choose and why?"
It will be Pura Villanueva Kalaw. She's the first Miss Philippines and she sparked the revolution to give Filipino women the right to suffrage. She's an artist, a writer, a humanitarian, a wife and a mother. She left a reminder that beutifully confident women can be the voice of change and imprint a legacy. Thank you.
If I was asked of this question, this will be my answer.
Dani, how will you answer this question though?
To be honest the first thing that came to mind would be to live a year in the shoes of a woman in a third world country to better understand her daily challenges. I could apply those experiences to improving the work I've done for the last decade, partnering with non-profit organizations like Feed my Starving Children and Same Sky, to better address sustainable solutions for poverty.
@@DaniWalker well said, very well said Dani. That's why we love you
@@DaniWalker Most notable answer so far. Not canned expected answer "judges want to hear". Me, I'd spend my time with the nameless women farmers in every country (mostly mothers) like those who toiled to plant rice and other crops in the heat of the sun to feed the world ❤️
Hi Dani! You are correct, Nicaragua’s gown was made by the same designer as Miss Colombia 1sr RU, the designer is Nidal from Venezuela
I hope someone sponsors your trip to many pageants next year ❤️❤️❤️
Hi! I’m Vietnamese American and I support my 2 queens from US and Vietnam respectively. Im sad that Vietnamese delegate didn’t make the cut but at the same time I genuinely feel that by the time it reaches top 10, Any of those 10 ladies could have won and I wouldn’t have a problem honestly. I think theyre all queens. Each lady is So smart and beautiful. Of course at the end of the night there’s only 1 crown but just knowing that there are 10 ladies representing 10 different countries across the world, and theyre all equally intelligent and well spoken, it truly means something significant. It means we as society have come a long way in terms of giving women everywhere equal opportunity to education, to equality, that’s why we see our top 10 ladies being equally amazing. I’d call that a big win you guys 😄
You are literally so sweet and supportive and correct. These women are so incredible. I hope Vietnam gets a queen soon. The level of competitiveness at their national comp is impressive, I feel like something happens in their universe prep that creates a shift. I can't put my finger on it.
@@DaniWalkeryou’re right, there is a recent change in ownership for the Miss Universe Vietnam and the new management is not as good as the old one. I hope they improve though and they better do it fast cause the pageant is only gonna get harder every year
Those with pink swim suit👙 advanced to Top 10 that's what I noticed like Nicaragua, Peru and Australia
Hey Dani :) I am learning to walk again *like literally walk* after a long bout of illness. Any tips that I can take from pageantry to apply to my journey of learning to walk again. My biggest challenge is getting back in to my high heels.
I for one am not happy the competition is going to be in Mexico next year … the last two times Mexico hosted the pageant, USA was loudly booed every time she was introduced. It was shameful and and hard to watch our delegate have to put on such a brave face all the while being treated like public enemy number one.
I guess this year USA will have to crown a Mexican American or an American with Latin American ties to avoid getting booed.
Nicaraguan here, l loved your recap and l know this video is 4 months old so l don't know if someone else has mentioned this but the girls actually DID have headphones during the Top 3 question to avoid any unfairness going on, Sheynnis said she was listening to "Danza Kuduro" by Don Omar when Australia was answering her question
Love your objective review Dani! Also highlighting Rbonney's fab farewell gown. She's really a fashion trailblazer. Agree with everything you said. Lessgo Mexico! Hahaha!
I actually rewatched and there were actually headphones during the last interview.
17:15 Am I missing something? Why did you say the final round had no headphones? The hosts LITERALLY preface the last question round by mentioning that while the first queens responds, the other two will be “WEARING SOUNDPROOF HEADPHONES”. They even mention it a second time when one of the hosts, as Thailand is about to hear the question for the first time, literally tells the other queens “ladies if you will accept the headphones, make sure they are tight” and you can see 2 staff members during the wide camera shot standing behind the queens with headphones. I’m confused
love it , always on point !!!
Appreciate it!
Philippines should be atleast in top 5. I love her performance and i love her gown so much! Congratulations to miss nicaragua❤️
Just wanted to add that Nicaragua used in top 3 Q&A name: Mary Wollstonecraft. She was the author of "Vindication of the Rights of woman" in 1972 which is considered by many the cornerstone of advocating equality for women. She was considered the first feminist and was very vocal about her point that society is keeping women in the role of “convenient domestic slaves”. She advocated for women to be able to have any professional career they dream about (just like a men) Above being a writer and historian she also opened a school for kids.
FUN FACT: She was the mother of Mary Shelley, - the author of "Frankenstein"
.
18:47 Mary Wollstonecraft! She is a gender advocate from a time where women were second-class citizens. She came like 100 years before suffragists that came from the Seneca Falls Conference like Elizabeth Cady Stanton and Susan B. Anthony. Sheynnis reeled me in right there because I am such a history buff, I got my
Bachelors in History & working for my Masters in American History🤓🤓🤓
Thanks Dani, I always enjoy your recaps and this was no exception :)
PS - You look stunning, like a contestant yourself!
