LAS VEGAS, Nevada (The Adobo Chronicles) – This year’s Miss Universe pageant made history by having a transgender contestant in the person of Miss Austria.
The closest Miss Universe ever got to having a transgender contestant was when Jenna Talackova waged a legal battle to be allowed to compete in the Miss Universe Canada pageant in 2012, after being initially disqualified for being a transgender woman. She failed to win the Miss Canada title.
During the national costume competition today, Miss Austria Amina Dagi forgot to shave her moustache.
Nevertheless, the crowd at the Planet Hollywood Resort in Las Vegas loved it. She has a good chance of being named a finalist, pageant experts say.
The Miss Universe finals will be held this Sunday.
SAN FRANCISCO, California (The Adobo Chronicles® ) – The Republican Party just knows that San Francisco’s LGBT community is dying to see Caitlyn Jenner in person and pay big bucks for a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. So the GOP is bringing Jenner to the City by the Bay to headline a fundraiser to raise funds for the 2016 presidential political campaign.
NEW YORK, New York (The Adobo Chronicles® ) – Until recently, Caitlyn Jenner had enjoyed a relatively warm reception by the transgender and larger LGBTQ community. While many raised an eyebrow at her affiliation with the Republican Party and a chorus of trans advocates rightly cautioned that Jenner’s privileged position as a wealthy celebrity made her a poor representative of the larger trans experience, most of the community welcomed having such a high-profile and potentially influential figure join the fold.
