On May 15, Jam once again became one of the trending topics on the micro-blogging social media platform. It is because of her comment against the national costume of Rabiya Mateo. The Filipina beauty queen showcased the symbolism of the Philippine flag in her costume by the late Rocky Gathercole.
Rabiya knew that there were those who felt disappointed by her performance or her costume and so she apologized. On the other hand, Miss Universe 2018 Catriona Gray, although she did not include Rabiya in her Top 6 for NatCos, she said that her fellow Pinay beauty queen does not need to say sorry.
Jam Magno commended the choice of the 4th Miss Universe. “Thank you @catrionaelisa for speaking about your HONEST OPINION. ako nga din, pareho tayong hindi like yang si Rabiya Mateo. let’s root for #MissUniverseThailand !! surely, she will gonna win the crown #MissUniverse2020,” the social media influencer tweeted.
Aside from this, Jam pointed out that Filipinos should criticize Rabiya for her costume. “Funny how you make a shady comment about the Government but didn’t seem to know one important Law: to never make use of our flag as a Costume other than put it on a Flagpole. Oh well papel, Thailand pa din!” she said.
Several netizens, especially those who are supporting Rabiya Mateo fired back at the social media influencer. Some of them even showed old photos of Jam Magno wearing an outfit reflecting the features of the Philippine flag.
