Runner-up Minh Nhan's 'attitude' towards Top 2 Miss Cosmo Vietnam, Organizing Committee said 'don't want to mention it'

After the final round of Miss Cosmo Vietnam 2025, the audience's attention is focused on the new runner-up. Besides, another person who has been taking the spotlight is runner-up Minh Nhan. She was eliminated from the top 2 and is also becoming the center of fierce controversy.

After the final round of Miss Cosmo Vietnam 2025, social media suddenly spread a clip recording the moment when runner-up Minh Nhan burst into tears, her face could not hide her sadness, sometimes even a bit absent-minded, even though she was standing on the main stage with bright lights and thousands of spectators watching. The incident happened right after Phuong Linh and Cam Ly were called to enter the debate round, meaning that Minh Nhan officially stopped at the Top 5.

The online community quickly divided into two opposing opinions surrounding Minh Nhan's actions. A large number of people believed that, with the title of 2nd Runner-up of Miss Grand Vietnam and experience in beauty contests, Minh Nhan should have shown more professionalism and courage. Her act of bursting into tears on stage was judged as a lack of emotional control, showing that she was not really mentally prepared for all possible scenarios in a fierce beauty contest.

Many people even frankly stated that this action could be misunderstood as an attitude of not accepting the victory of Top 2 and the decision of the organizing committee. For a beauty contest of such magnitude, maintaining a calm and confident demeanor despite regret is necessary, because Top 5 is already a very prestigious and proud position. Many people expressed that Minh Nhan's performance in Top 5 was not really good enough for her to go further, and stopping in Top 5 was a worthy recognition for her journey at Miss Cosmo Vietnam.

However, on the other hand, many fans have spoken up to defend Minh Nhan, saying that her emotions are completely natural. After a long journey of tireless efforts, it is understandable that she cried when she was so close to the crown but had to stop.

After the competition, Minh Nhan also spoke up to explain that moment: "At that time, I also had many emotions, not thinking that the journey here was over. Every time we compete, we have to set higher goals, right? I also set higher goals." She also said that currently she just wants to take time to rest after a long journey and has no plans to register for a new competition.

Notably, in the first press conference after the coronation, CEO Bao Hoang, head of Miss Cosmo Vietnam, spoke up about the case of runner-up Minh Nhan. He shared: "Everyone can see Minh Nhan's journey and efforts. When accompanying the contestants, I understand the efforts of each person, in which Minh Nhan is a prominent factor.

Minh Nhan already has a title but still participates in the contest, you will also receive certain expectations. However, I do not want to dig too deep because it will affect you more. I think through the performance of the Top 2 so far, everyone also understands the convincing power of the Miss Universe Vietnam result." CEO Bao Hoang's explanation, although not directly defending Minh Nhan's actions, indirectly affirmed the fairness of the contest results.

Even Miss Phuong Linh, who was just crowned, expressed her great admiration for Minh Nhan's efforts in the contest. She shared: "To me, Minh Nhan is a special gir.l, because during the preliminary round you received a lot of negative comments about your body but in just a short time you had a dramatic change. I lost 10kg in 6 months but Minh Nhan lost 10kg in 1 month, my weight loss was very difficult, but Minh Nhan lost in a shorter time so the difficulty was 6 times more. I have such great admiration for Minh Nhan that I turned back to look at Minh Nhan first."

These statements from the organizers and the new beauty queen have somewhat eased the wave of criticism, directing public opinion to Minh Nhan's extraordinary efforts. Although the moment of crying still causes controversy about professionalism, it cannot be denied that Minh Nhan's journey to "hunt for the crown" at Miss Cosmo Vietnam has left many marks, especially her incredible perseverance and determination in changing herself. Her story once again shows the enormous pressure and expectations that contestants face in the beauty arena, where the line between natural emotions and professionalism is always fragile.

H'Hen Nie reminded the new Miss Phuong Linh to take care of herself, Thuy Tien was immediately called out.
