Beauty Pageant Queen Stripped of Title for Eating "Too Many Tacos"

I'm going to say right off the bat, I love tacos.

However, a beauty pageant winner loves tacos more.  17-year-old Domonique Ramirez, the reigning Miss San Antonio, has been stripped of her title for eating "too many tacos" and for being "late."

Linda Woods, a spokeswoman for the pageant, stated, "As a Miss San Antonio reigning queen, she has to live up to our rules and regulations and the standards of our contract... I said, you know, 'Get off the tacos, get off the chips and the soda.' Because she's 17, and that's what these kids eat."

KTLA has more:

Ramirez says she's 5'8, weighs 129 pounds, and is a size 2. She says the allegations are false. 
"I have shown up to every single event they have scheduled for me during my reign," Ramirez told a local newspaper. "I have been five or 10 minutes late to some, but only because I didn't have a chaperone, which they did promise me." 
A tearful Ramirez at a press conference went on to say, "If I get my crown, great. If I don't, the only thing I'm asking is to clear my name. I'm 17. I shouldn't have to be slandered like this and my future shouldn't have to be ruined over this."

  1. The first time I read about this one it was about her not making her appearances. The electronic fishwrap I read took eight sentences to mention LULAC. Then six sentences later was what I was waiting for.
    Something about how both of her parents barely squeaking by and both working to get ny while the ANGLOs from the Dominion (a VERY ritzy subdiv built around a golf course)were picking on her for not being able to make it to appearences on time- if at all.
    Because they were rich and didn't understand what it was like to worry about money.


    BTW- she went to O'Connor HS which is NOT in the poor section of town.
