Miss USA and Miss Venezuela had confrontation during interview with Miss Universe jury

Miss USA and Miss Venezuela not only held hands on the final night of Miss Universe, but the two women had an intense confrontation during the obligatory interview with the jury days before the final night of the pageant held in the city of New Orleans.

The contestants Amanda Dudamel and R’Bonney Gabriel became the strongest of the 71st edition of the most important beauty pageant in the world, and this was reflected when they were chosen as the two grand finalists of the contest along with Miss Dominican Republic.

At the end of the night, the winner of the Miss Universe crown was Miss USA, who, holding hands with Miss Venezuela, was waiting for the final verdict. However, some time before the coronation they would have had the confrontation in front of the jury.

The two finalists had to answer privately to the questions that the jury had prepared for them. The curious thing of the moment is that among the almost 90 contestants, the two finalists who still did not know the final result, were facing away from each other while answering the questions. The rivalry of the two women had already been mentioned by the newsletters, such as mexican gossip and entertainment network Telemundo, who repeatedly spoke about how the organization put the two women against each other in a media scandal.

And the fact is that the girls were practically facing the jury together, because while the winner of the contest, Miss USA, was doing her interview, right behind was the one who was the most favored first finalist of the pageant, Miss Venezuela.
