Dethroned Bb. Pilipinas-Universe, Ma. Venus Raj, is determined to fight the Binibining Pilipinas Charities, Inc. in court to get back her crown.
She says she did nothing wrong as she's always been vocal, especially in her preliminary interviews in the pageant, about her place of birth (Doha, Qatar) and about her father being an Indian national.
The thing is that those facts are in total contrast with what's written in her birth certificate where it says she's born here in the country.
Venus argues, though, that had it been a ground for disqualification, the pageant organizers should have disqualified her during the first parts of the screening process, and not at this point where she had already won a crown.
BPCI meanwhile stands firm by its decision but remains quiet regarding the issue.
Italian-American radio host comedian, Adam Carolla, apologizes to Filipinos who got offended by his recent podcast calling Manny Pacquiao illiterate and bashing the whole Philippines by saying we have nothing but an illiterate "who happens to smash other guys in the head better than other people."
Adam Carolla says, “Sorry if I offended many of u. I don’t preplan my commentary. I try to be provoctive, funny but I crossed the line&im sorry.”
