Multiple contestants from the Miss Universe 2025 pageant walked out of an event in solidarity after an official of host nation Thailand publicly “humiliated” Miss Mexico.
The incident took place during a pre-pageant event on 3 November when Thai pageant director Nawat Itsaragrisil called Fátima Bosch of Mexico “dumb” for failing to post promotional content and ordered security to remove her.
In a video of the row doing the rounds on social media, Itsaragrisil, who serves as vice president for Asia and Oceania for the organising body Miss Universe Organization (MUO) and heads the Thai host team, can be seen questioning Bosch about her absence from a sponsor shoot earlier that day.
Thirteen minutes into a livestream of the event, still visible on the Miss Universe Thailand’s Facebook page, Itsaragrisil is seen asking the participants to raise their hands if they had not fulfilled the promotional activities for the organisation.
He goes on to single out Bosch by name, and when she stands up, he says: “I heard you did not agree to post everything about Thailand, about every article of our own activities. Is it true?”

What a disgusting person. He thinks he can do anything, and he treats girls like furniture.
All staged, and so badly staged haha

All successful and bold women in the one frame. ❤
Misogynistic angry homosexual curating women . Nawat is a true product of Thai society
Wonderful GEN Zs have SELF RESPECT!
Millennials and Gen X will mostly just keep quiet and accept bully, as they have often done, trained by Boomers.
Nawat himself is a GenX Boomer, no surprise.
Gen Z is a great example of SELF RESPECT!
A time where Older people are a shame !
Shame on the women who remained seated! I saw another video where one of them offered to bring everyone back, and I assume that's what happened but if all or most of them had stuck to their guns and walked out of the pageant, this type of behavior would NEVER happen again. That creep has tons of money riding on this event. He would have lost it all.
This guy is a piece of Trash! He should be relegated to street sweeper who has no more authority than to order more trash bags! Preferably, ones that he can fit in himself!
They said miss Mexico didn't follow miss universe rules and policies🤔 So he got angry.
Keep all Miss universe Hostage because He look 👀 Down she Mexico 🇲🇽 Mexicana woman and people.🙄🤣😱

Kenapa mereka masih bodoh mengikuti acara ini di Thailand,seharusnya semua sekali pulang n memboikot Miss Universe di Thailand..
Good job to the ladies who followed Ms. Mexico. This shows how that guy represents Thailand. So rude!
Free Palestine and stop starving the kids!
