Miss Ocean Dang Thu Thao announced to give up her title because of Ngan Anh

A representative of the Department of Performing Arts said that disciplinary measures will be taken if the beauty pageant organizers violate the regulations.

Mr. Le Minh Tuan - Deputy Director of the Department of Performing Arts - said that when the final round of Miss Ocean 2017 ended on the evening of October 28, he received many responses about contestant Le Au Ngan Anh having plastic surgery but still winning the crown. The Department has requested the organizing unit to explain and submit documents related to the judging and selection process. Mr. Tuan said that according to current regulations, contestants participating in beauty contests must have natural beauty.

Previously, in a press conference after the final, Ngan Anh admitted to having a nose job but had the cartilage removed to restore her face to its original state. The contestant said she had reported this to the organizing committee and it was approved. However, many viewers were not satisfied with the beauty's explanation. Ngan Anh also faced information that she had lip injections and eyelid surgery.

Recently, Miss Ocean 2014 Dang Thu Thao announced to give up the title because she disagreed with Ngan Anh's victory. According to her, the fact that a contestant who had plastic surgery was in the top is unfair to the other contestants. In addition, Ngan Anh's performance was hesitant and unconvincing. Thu Thao also said that she was told by the organizing committee to prepare to crown the new beauty queen. However, at the moment Le Au Ngan Anh was crowned, designer Vo Viet Chung was the one who carried out this task. Thu Thao was upset because she did not receive a satisfactory explanation from the organizing committee.
