Emannuelly Belini, who represents the municipality of Várzea Grande, was crowned Miss Gay Mato Grosso on May 27, according to the New York Post. Nathally Becker, representing the city of Cuiaba, was the runner-up.
Just as the crown was about to be crowned on Bellini's head, the runner-up's husband, Natalie Becker, rushed onto the stage to snatch the prize and throw it on the ground.
According to reports, the man's identity has not been released.
Shortly after snatching the beauty queen's crown, the man repeated his act of vandalism, causing the crown to shatter, according to the local news site Globo.
The angry husband then tried to drag Becker off the stage. However, game security immediately intervened and dragged him backstage, surprising the crowd.
After the incident, Marlon Heinish, organizer of the Miss Gay Mato Grosso pageant, declared that the judges were completely fair in their decision to award Miss Emmanuel Bellini.
the event organizer stated. "The troublemaker is not satisfied with the result and has caused inconvenience and damage. We strongly condemn the act of invading the stage and aggressively destroying the crown,"
Haenisch added, "We reaffirm the judges' decision and support the new queen, as well as Becker because she should not be held responsible for the insane behavior of a third party."
