Pia Alonzo Wurtzbach Willing To Share Miss Universe Crown

imageNEW YORK, New York (The Adobo Chronicles) – In a whirlwind of television appearances on national networks yesterday, Miss Universe Pia Alonzo Wurtzbach was asked  repeatedly if she was willing to share her crown with Miss Colombia.

In the days following the Miss Universe pageant, there have been calls for Wurtzbach to share the title with first runner-up Miss Colombia, after host Steve Harvey erroneously announced Ariadna Gutierrez as the winner. No less than former Miss Universe owner Donald Trump suggested both ladies should be declared ‘co-winners.’

In response to the questions — and displaying the confidence and graciousness that wowed the pageant judges, Wurtzbach said:

‘I already shared the crown with Miss Colombia; she wore it for a full four minutes. And I continue to share my crown with the 79 other beautiful ladies that competed with me in the pageant; I am their representative.  I am willing to share the crown with anyone.’

As can be seen in the photo above, the FOX News anchor took her up on her offer.

CNN’s Don Lemon also wore the crown when he intereviewed her on his show, although the cameras failed to capture Lemon’s crowning moment.

NEW YORK, New York (The Adobo Chronicles) – Two of the leading American cable news networks today announced bold moves to try to improve their sagging ratings.

MSNBC has promoted Rachel Maddow from news host to new anchor.  In the midst of declining ratings for MSNBC, Maddow’s popularity is at an all-time high.

CNN, meanwhile, has announced that it was demoting controversial news anchor Don Lemon who has been criticized for his clueless and misinformed reporting and opinions for the news channel.   Lemon was also the target of a recent online petition asking CNN to fire him. That petition has so far gained over 37,000 signatures.

CNN demoted Lemon from news anchor to teleprompter.

 (noun tele·prompt·er \ˈte-lə-ˌpräm(p)-tər\a machine that helps someone who is speaking to an audience or on television by showing the words that need to be said)

NEW YORK, New York (The Adobo Chronicles ) – In a no-holds-barred interview with The New York Times, controversial CNN anchor Don Lemon answered all sorts of questions — from why he thinks the missing Malaysia Airlines plane could have been swallowed by a black hole, to why he smelled marijuana in the air during his coverage of the Ferguson riots.

But Lemon’s answer to one particular question sums up his entire career as a public persona:

NYT: You have a track record of upsetting people on the left. What would you say was the worst episode?

LEMON: I don’t know. No one asks Jake Tapper or Wolf Blitzer to be the spokesperson for any particular group. I’m not an advocate or an activist. I’m not a journalist. I’m a comedian.

So there you go dear readers, don’t take Lemon too seriously. Lighten up. Let him be!
