Bali, Indonesia – The United States was aiming for the “grand slam” at this year’s Miss World beauty pageant, focused on winning the crown to add to the Miss Universe title won earlier this year by Miss U.S.A. Olivia Culpo.
Olivia Jordan (yes, another Olivia), U.S.A.’s entry to this pretigious pageant held over the weekend in the Indonesian resort of Bali, made it to the top 10 contestants during Saturday’s finals, but not to the top 5.
Miss Philippines, Megan Young, an early favorite in the competition, went on to win the title, the first ever by a Filipina in Miss World’s 62-year history. Miss France was first runner-up and Miss Ghana came in third.
Less than 24 hours after the pageant finals, the U.S. filed a formal protest with the Miss World pageant organizers, saying that Young should be credited as a U.S. entry as well. Young was born in the United States to an American father and Filipina mother, but moved at age 10 to the Philippines where she is currentlly a model, actress and television host. “Technically, she is also Miss U.S.A,” the protest document indicated. “Even her surname is very American. Can’t she be at least declared as a ‘dual contestant’ by virtue of her dual citizenship?” it added.
Miss World owner Julia Morley has not returned calls from The Adobo Chronicles seeking comment on the U.S. protest.

Megan Young has been trained so hard by the Filipinos to represent The Philippines in Miss World. Megan Young herself prefers to be a Filipina and she won. After all these hardships, US would simply and easily take its credit by saying Megan should represent the US too. VERY RIDICULOUS! We earned the title so hard and US would just simply take its credit away from us! THAT’s COMPLETELY UNACCEPTABLE AND DUMB! That’s totally a BIG SLAP on your Miss USA World rep’s face! US can only be proud of her half American blood, but they can NEVER take away the title from the Phils! Megan Young spoke in tagalog when she was asked about winning the crown. Even megan herself will denounce US claim! CRY ME A RIVER US LOSERS!

What makes this article even funnier are the people who cannot distinguish the difference between fake news and real news. Second, the reason why she won in the elimination round is because ethnic looking Filipinas are ugly. You have to be meztiza to make it in show biz in the Philippines. The average Filipina is short and with a tomato like nose. The one who commented that she looks more Filipina than Caucasian is an idiot who obviously can’t tell the difference. By the way, Adobo Chronicles is a copycat of Onion news. The only difference is that Onion does CNN style news reporting while Adobo just writes because it has no budget. Therefore Adobo is a literally poor copycat of an American idea.
