It's ironic to see Ms Philippines fighting for the title with 4 Latinas whom she had a supposedly "offensive" statement about Latinas in beauty pageants blasted by DJ Mo Twister in his instagram account about 3 weeks ago with caption:
"I don't intend to bash on our Ms Philippines here but how the f*ck is this not considered offensive toward Latinas? I mean, we ALWAYS get so sensitive when someone says anything about us Filipinos (see Dan Brown, Alec Baldwin, and every other time we screamed murder) yet our girl representing our country, in a legit interview regarding the competition, says Latinas can't put a sentence together in English. That would royally piss me off if I were of Latin descent. I'm pretty sure we would lose our minds if we heard an interview of a contestant saying "Filipinos can't string a sentence together" and our Senator/Congressman would persona non grata that b*tch immediately. I'm also quite certain that a few of the Latina contestants can cook up a few intelligible lines in English that would leave Ariella here dizzy in her heels. Best of luck to her in the competition. Now back to my NBA Fantasy Team."
But during the competition, DJ Mo showed his support for Ms Philippines in his twitter account!
Let's go Ms. Philippines!
