The coronation moment of the new Miss Universe Philippines made people laugh.
Accordingly, Chelsea Manalo only had the crown placed on her head by the previous Miss, instead of pinning it in her hair as usual. During the entire process of wearing the sash, Chelsea Manalo was almost motionless, not daring to move for fear that the crown that was floating on her head would fall. It was not until the staff below the stage reminded her that the previous Miss turned to put the crown back on Chelsea Manalo more neatly and securely. Thanks to that, the new Miss had a smooth first step in her new position. 
On social media, the moment the new Miss Universe Philippines 2024 crowned her with her faith was widely shared and discussed by netizens because it was so unique. “I thought I was watching a magic trick to keep my balance”, “This case is truly proof of the saying ‘Live proudly like a queen, don’t bow your head because the crown will fall'”, “There was a crown but it was not worth mentioning”, “Unique Miss Universe Philippines”, “The most precarious coronation scene ever seen”, “Just being named Miss and already having a disaster”, “Who said being a Miss was easy”, netizens humorously commented.
Beauty fans around the world are quite surprised, along with many questions when they do not understand why Michelle Dee – the previous Miss could place the crown so naturally on the contestant’s head. At the same time, perhaps she did not practice, prepare in advance for the situations that would happen, imagine the hairstyles that the contestants of the program could choose in the Final night. Michelle’s calmness as she “placed” the crown on Chelsea’s head and then calmly handed over the sash made many people unable to hold back their laughter.
Chelsea Manalo – the new Miss Universe Philippines – 24 years old. She is Filipino-American. Chelsea Manalo is from Bulacan and graduated from a tourism college. With this victory, Chelsea Manalo will represent the Philippines at the upcoming Miss Universe pageant in Mexico.
