Beauty and scholarship pageants are supposed to be about empowering women of all ages through scholarship opportunities, community service, and sometimes dressing like an awesome hockey sorceress. They’re not supposed to be about attacking opponents, ripping their hair out, chucking their crowns on the ground, and calling them the dreaded B-word. At least one contestant at the 2015 Miss Amazonas competition in Brazil missed the memo on how not to behave, as runner-up Sheislane Hayalla lost her mind and attacked the pageant’s winner, Tereza Azêdo, as she was being crowned.
While there’s a certain amount of hilarity in the way that Hayalla walked off like she just didn’t give a f*ck, I can’t get over the contestant on the right who just keeps clapping as this all goes down. That kind of commitment had to have earned her Miss Congeniality. As for why this happened, well, it seems good, old-fashioned pageant-rigging was in play…
Sheislane Hayalla, Miss Globe International 2014 1st runner-up, competed last night (30) at Miss Amazonas 2015 in order to represent her State in Miss Universe Brazil and finished in the second place.
Disgruntled, she took the crown from the winner’s head and threw it on the floor, pulling out a few tufts of Carol Toledo’s hair.
It may seems like a sore loser behavior, but there were very strong rumors since last year that it was all settled to give this tittle to Carol, who is goddaughter of the organizer.
The credibility of this pageant is already under suspicion since 2013 when after the final announcement the judges were asking what had happened because the winner announced was not the girl they had selected. (There was a video where we could hear the judge saying that something went wrong).
Sheislane was cheered and supported by all the audience and fellow contestants. She left the hall applauded by the crowd.
That description comes from this video that shows the other contestant in yellow telling Hayalla something right before she snaps. My guess? “Tereza thinks the Patriots cheated.”
