The sudden withdrawal of the Panamanian beauty from the Miss Universe 2024 pageant is attracting public curiosity. The Panamanian representative also responded to the information that she was expelled early due to a fight with another contestant. On November 1, the Miss Universe Organizing Committee suddenly announced that Italian beauty Johan Mora – Panama’s representative – had withdrawn from the pageant. The Organizing Committee said: “The Miss Universe Organization regrets to announce the withdrawal of Miss Panama from the Miss Universe 2024 pageant. This decision was made after a thorough evaluation by our Disciplinary Committee.”
The Miss Universe Organizing Committee said that the Disciplinary Committee is responsible for maintaining the integrity and value of the competition. They have conducted a comprehensive assessment of the issue, based on the information collected, and concluded that the withdrawal of Italian beauty Johan Mora is an appropriate action in the current situation.
The news that Italy Johan Mora withdrew from the competition surprised many people because she had been in Mexico and participated in a number of activities of the competition. Previously, Johan Mora was considered a potential candidate in the Americas region.
The 19-year-old beauty is a long-time model in her home country, possessing a beautiful face, a well-proportioned body, good performance and behavior skills.
As soon as the news of the Panamanian beauty’s sudden withdrawal from the competition was posted, social networks and beauty pages were buzzing about the reason. Accordingly, the representative of Panama is said to have had a conflict with the representative of the Dominican Republic. They are considered roommates in this year’s season.
A source revealed that the Dominican beauty was said to have had a bad attitude and treatment towards the Panamanian beauty. While in the same room, the Dominican representative behaved impolitely, leading to the two beauties having a conflict, arguing and then fighting.

Ngay khi thông tin người đẹp Panama bất ngờ rút khỏi cuộc thi được đăng tải, mạng xã hội và các chuyên trang sắc đẹp rầm rộ bàn tán về nguyên nhân. Theo đó, đại diện của Panama được cho là có mâu thuẫn với đại diện của Cộng hòa Dominica. Họ được xếp là bạn cùng phòng tại mùa giải năm nay.
The national director of Miss Universe Panama reportedly took their representative out of the hotel because he thought the Dominican Republic beauty was too aggressive. The act of taking the contestant out of the hotel during the competition was considered a violation of the Miss Universe organization’s regulations. Therefore, the Panama beauty was disciplined and forced to leave the competition.
According to another source, the Panama representative is said to have left the hotel without permission. In addition, she was also suspected of bringing a stranger into the room, which angered the Dominican Republic representative.
On November 3, the Panama beauty spoke out in response to the information online. In a letter posted on social media, the Panama representative said that she received the news of her disqualification from the competition on November 1 while preparing for the dinner event.
“I was informed that I violated the rules of leaving the room. The reason for leaving the room was to put on makeup and take some personal belongings. I believed and followed the instructions without thinking about the consequences. However, I just want to emphasize that everything could have been avoided if I had been warned or reminded earlier,” the 19-year-old beauty explained.
She said that everything that happened made her very sad because all the efforts and preparations of herself and the team “went down the drain”. She really regretted not being able to continue participating in the contest this year.
“I am speaking up to clarify the inaccurate information being shared on social networks and hope that everyone will respect my privacy at this time,” she added.
