The team that said "we should have been" mixed up the beauty pageant.

An unexpected event occurred at the Miss Grand International beauty pageant. The third-place crown of 18-year-old Thae Su Nyein, representing Myanmar, was taken away by her own country's team in protest.

In the competition held in Bangkok, the Myanmar representative placed third after India and the Philippines. However, Myanmar's team director Htoo Ant Lwin claimed that the contestant should have been first and removed the young contestant's crown and sash on stage. Thae, who was in tears during the incident, had to leave the stage.

Following the scandal, the pageant organization MGI announced on social media that it had revoked Thae's third-place title due to "violations of rules." Interestingly, the theme of this year's competition was "a message of love and peace to the world."

After the competition, Thae stated that she was not upset about losing the first place and surprisingly referred to the director Htoo, who took her crown, as "a valuable mentor and friend in her life."

The organization president Itsaragrisil made a strong statement, saying, "If he wants to be first so badly, he can organize his own competition and get the title he wants. Such people should stay away from competitive organizations."

The incident later took on a different dimension. The Myanmar team accused the organizers of soliciting bribes for the crown, while the organization denied this claim and accused the Myanmar team of financial misconduct, imposing a lifetime ban on director Htoo from the competition.

A similar incident recently occurred at a beauty pageant in Fiji, where the crown of the contestant who was chosen as the winner was controversially taken back.
