Mexico’s representative, Fatima Bosch, won the Miss Universe 2025 crown on Friday in Thailand, achieving a memorable victory despite the controversy that marked her journey. The 25-year-old was involved in a dramatic viral altercation with the pageant’s executive and presenter, Nawat Itsaragrisil, who publicly criticized her and even called her “stupid” for an apparent failure to post promotional content about Thailand on her social media accounts. This incident sparked a strong wave of feminist support for the Mexican contestant earlier this month. However, Bosch demonstrated her resilience and charisma before the jury, overcoming the scandal to be crowned the most beautiful among the more than 120 women from around the world who competed in Thailand for the title of Miss Universe 2025.
