Although Binibining Pilipinas Universe has returned the crown to Maria Venus Raj, but her title and privilege to represent the Philippines in the International pageant is dependent on whether or not the beauty queen can produce a Philippine passport.
Raj is against the conditon and claims that since she did not misrepresent herself or commit any act of deception there were no grounds for dethroning her in the first place, and the title should be given back to her unconditionally. I say just give them the passport already. Hello? Why are you prolonging this issue?
Maria Venus Raj won the Bb. Pilipinas Universe but was dethroned soon after for “inconsistencies” in her birth certificate.
