“I farted in front of my entire university class! I was presenting my final project at Florida International University and dropped my pen. As I bent down to pick it up I farted and the class heard it!” – Monyque Brooks, Miss Universe Cayman Islands 2016

Whoopsie!

2. The accidental “wedgie”

“My most embarrassing moment was the day I modeled for the first time on a runway. I had been wearing a typical Panamanian dress for the carnivals and from the beginning I felt something was wrong with the skirt, but the designer said everything is ok [and] the skirt will stay. When I went out to do the catwalk, I took a few steps and—puff!–my skirt fell off! I was lucky I was so fast that I was able to hold it in time so [it] did not fall that much. But this remains one of the [most] embarrassing moments that I will not forget.” – Keity Drennan, Miss Universe Panama 2016

3. Showing off gone wrong

“When I was in the fifth grade, I had a huge crush on my classmate. One day after school a bunch of friends (including my crush) were hanging out trying to jump over the muddy drain. Being the tomboy that I was, I thought this would be the perfect time to show off, so I jumped and instead of jumping over the drain, I jumped straight into it! Everyone laughed so hard at me and I ran to the bathroom and cried until my mom came to get me. It was well worth the fall because I got the guy!” – Rebecca Rath, Miss Universe Belize 2016

Okay lang iyan ‘te, nakuha mo naman si guy.

4. The tainted smile

“I’m kind of a foodie and one day I had this amazing plate of beef curry, dhal puri and a cup of dhal. I didn’t check my teeth before smiling at a guy I was smitten with. Big mistake! Turns out I had a piece of thyme on my teeth but he laughed and gently removed it for me.” – Soyini Fraser, Miss Universe Guyana 2016

5. A game of chicken

“I was casually crossing a street in St. Croix and did not notice, but a mother hen was also walking across with her baby chicks. She must have thought I was a threat because she ran after me flapping her wings. I was shocked. I screamed and ran down the road as quickly as possible until she had stopped chasing me. All of the sudden I look up, and there is a crowd of tourists hooting, howling, and clapping at the scene that had just played out. Needless to say, I curtsied, laughed, and continued on. But my cheeks were so red!” – Carolyn Carter, Miss US Virgin Islands 2016

Kalma lang, gurl! Inahin lang iyan!

6. The awful puke

“While presenting a TV show on a local network I was asked to swim with Tuna fish. It was an amazing experience, however the sea was very rough and I get seasick very easily. I ended up throwing up (!!!!) in front of all the camera crew and several other people who were watching.” – Martha Fenech, Miss Universe Malta 2016.

I bet they weren’t pleased with that afterwards!
