Miss Universe 2024: The ungrateful contestant is now a judge, once out top, rival Khanh Van

Fans of Miss Universe are arguing in front of the judges of this year's contest. In particular, the Nova Stevens beauty is said to be unworthy of sitting in the hot seat, because she has been involved in a lot of noise, out of the top is not enough to mark other contestants.

On November 1, the Miss Universe organizers announced the next jury members of the Miss Universe 2024 contest. Among them, it is worth noting the beauty Nova Stevens - Miss Universe Canada 2020.

"We are proud to announce Nova Stevens – Miss Universe Canada 2020 – has joined our jury. As a passionate advocate for racial diversity, mental health, and resilience, Nova inspires with her story and work, showing that true beauty lies in authenticity, strength, and compassion. We are delighted to see that her expertise and vision will enrich our competition," the organizers wrote.

Nova Stevens has an impressive height of 1.83 m, a standard body and a sharp face. The beauty attracted attention with her emotional life story. Nova Stevens had to leave her family at the age of 6 because of the Sudanese civil war, and went to Canada alone as a refugee. In April 2021, thanks to the Miss Universe organization, Nova Stevens was reunited with her family after 21 years of separation.

At the Miss Universe 2020 contest, Nova Stevens is a competitor of Miss Khanh Van, considered a potential contestant. However, she had to leave empty-handed, surprising many people, losing to Khanh Van's achievement of being in the top 21. The beauty was also entangled with the famous designer Michael Cinco. At that time, MGmode Communications - the unit that brought Nova Stevens to the contest - was angry with Michael Cinco for the delay in sending the evening dress to the US, causing the Canadian beauty not to achieve good results at the contest. These are two reasons why the beauty is controversial when she is in the judge's chair.

A spokesperson for MGmode Communications revealed that the dress did not fit Nova Stevens' body measurements, so the beauty born in 1994 took time to edit. They also raised the suspicion that Michael Cinco received too many orders for this incident. In response to these allegations, Michael Cinco angrily accused Nova Stevens of betrayal even though he had paid for a photographer to take the photo for her in Dubai.

The designer shared: "The Miss Universe Canada and Miss Nova Stevens organization took advantage of my kindness for 3 years to use high-end clothes without paying any money. I just need a thank you from Nova Stevens and the crew but unfortunately she wasn't kind enough to do it. You are just ungrateful people, who like to take advantage of others."

Meanwhile, Nova Stevens spoke out about the incident: "I want to clarify a few things. Michael, I have nothing but love and gratitude for you for creating the most beautiful evening dress I could ever imagine. Collaborating with a famous designer like him is a very memorable milestone in my career. Michael Cinco is so kind and I'm forever grateful for that."

It is worth mentioning that, after four years of conflict, Nova Stevens and Michael Cinco are both on the judges' bench at Miss Universe 2024. Many people think that their discord has been resolved.

Previously, the Miss Universe organizers also announced other jury members such as journalist - producer of Telemundo TV channel - Jessica Carrillo, Miss Universe 1978 - Margaret Gardiner, fashion designer Eva Cavalli, MC Mario Lopez, actor-model Lele Pons and music producer Emilio Estefan...
