NAGBITAW ng katotohanang pahayag ang Filipino international fashion designer na si Michael Cinco laban kay Miss Universe Canada 2020 Nova Stevens at sa team nito na MGmode Communications.
“YOU ALL ARE UNGRATEFUL, VILE and professional USERS. Next time don’t ask me or any FILIPINO designers to dress up your candidates.”
Sumali ang team ni Nova sa 69th Miss Universe na ginanap nito lamang Mayo 16, 2021 sa Seminole Hard Rock Hotel & Casino in Hollywood, Florida, United States.
Ang MGmode Communications ay nag akusa kay Cinco sa ginawa nitong gown para kay Miss Canada.
“The truth need to be told. The gown was sent late by Michael’s team, and when it arrived none of them fitted! We were able to fix the one for the finals, but the one for prelims, we didn’t have time.
“We went to Dubai 2 times, to prevent such mistake since it happen to us as well with Argentina’s gown last year and Uruguay.
“Such a terrible mistake should not have happened! We love Michael! But this was inexplicable.
“At the same time, they have time to custom made a gown for another delegate who checked in with her custom made Michael Cinco gown. Things don’t add up! Sadly!”, pahayag ng MGmode.
Ikinagalit naman ito ng fashion designer at isang kasinungalingan umano ang pahayag ng team.
“It is common knowledge, I believe, that I am a very positive person. I never go into rants as it is just not me. I try to find humor in any adverse situation that I think warrants my time and attention.
“And the need to comment. I don’t normally respond to unnecessary social media rants or any negative criticisms about my work but this one caught my ire as it seems to put uncalled for blame on my team week after Miss UNIVERSE. The audacity of truth to be told when it is bereft of it…”
Isa umanong fake news ang pahayag ng team ni Miss Canada Team.
“Now this is for you to the whole Miss CANADA Team Migüel Martinez, Denis Martin Davila, and Miss CANADA Organization and your ungrateful Miss CANADA Nova Stevens.
“You have been spreading fake news about me and my team being unprofessional days before the pageant but I chose to be quiet and calm. But this time, I need to stand up for me and my team, as it is just so UNFAIR!
“FIRSTLY, the gowns arrived on time. Or how could you have sent me photos and videos of her wearing them, showing how the gowns perfectly fitted her, days before each event. You even posted a video of NOVA in her last fitting and she was happy.

“You were forcing me to make Nova’s 26” waistline to be cinched to 23”, which I obviously didn’t heed even if you said that in pageants, comfort doesn’t matter. But PLEASE don’t say that her gown was ill-fitting.”
