Michelle Dee caught the attention of pageant viewers due to this
Miss Universe Philippines 2023 Michelle Dee reacted to her viral MUPH 2024 crowning moment with the newly-crowned queen Chelsea Manalo.
As Michelle’s reign ended, it was her time to crown her successor. On May 22, the MUPH 2024 coronation took place and before the night ended, Miss Bulacan reigned supreme among other candidates.
After Chelsea Manalo’s was announced as the winner, the outgoing queen went to the center of the stage to crown her.
When Michelle Dee placed the crown on the head of the new queen, this did not go unnoticed in the eyes of pageant fans. Chelsea had a bun as her hairstyle and Michelle placed the crown on top of the bun. It showed that the crown was just sitting on the new queen’s head.
Apparently, Chelsea was balancing the crown in order for it not to fall. This was one of the reasons why Michelle’s name was among the trending topics on social media. Netizens had funny reactions to this. Here are some tweets about this.
