Steven P. Administrators Posted April 6, 2021 Administrators Share Posted April 6, 2021 The winner of Sri Lanka's biggest beauty prize has suffered head injuries after a brawl broke out on stage. 😢 Beauty queen Pushpika De Silva won the "Mrs Sri Lanka" title at a ceremony on national TV on Sunday. Moments later, the 2019 winner seized Ms De Silva's crown, claiming she could not be awarded the title because she was divorced. 😲 The prize has now been returned to Ms De Silva, after pageant organisers confirmed she is not a divorcee. 🤓 Judges named Ms De Silva the 2021 winner at the Mrs Sri Lanka final in a theatre in Colombo on Sunday night. 👑 But the 2019 winner, Caroline Jurie, stripped Ms De Silva of her crown, citing a pageant rule that competitors must be married and not divorced. "There is a rule that prevents women who have already been married and are divorced, so I am taking steps to make the crown go to second place," Ms Jurie told the audience. She placed the crown on the runner-up, prompting a tearful Ms De Silva to walk off stage, a video of the incident showed. 😭 Source: BBC The above video shows the fracas in all of it's gory detail 😲 hellowalkman 1 Share Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/1406716-mrs-sri-lanka-beauty-queen-%F0%9F%91%91-injured-in-on-stage-bust-up-update/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
