Thanks Dani for the great recap! Personally I was very surprised that Peru and Belgium didn't make it, they were 2 of my faves. My fave performances were: France (with only 4 days of preparation!), Bahamas, Aruba, Vietnam and Paraguay - and India, of course I liked seeing some one-piece swimsuits Will you be recapping Miss France? :)

Well deserved ❤️👏👍

[@Mochiboo88]

What are your thoughts on the judges blatant display of favoritism towards their own candidates? The PH judge openly clapping when Miss Philippines came out. India Judge STOOD UP out of her seat clapping cheering loudly. I guess it’s only UNPROFESSIONAL & a cooking show when your candidate don’t make it to top 20. HYPOCRITES LMAO …Miss USA should’ve been top 5 … but of course being mediocre got rewarded instead. It helps when your judges got your back ~wink 😉 wink PH.. LMAO 🤣

for me, India didnt answer the question, the question is to convinced people that believed that climate change is a HOKE, she convinced us to do something for climate change, she should convinced us that climate change is a thing in this world. not being biased in top 5, but the only contestant that answer the question was Philippines

Girl I was waiting for the reaction since yesterday. This year's production was great All contestants - Fabulous as Usual All palcements- Few Surprises but very well acceptable and actually refreshing. Countries who don't have Sache factor shall be given more chance actually if they have are deserving. Liked South Africa's gown tbh. Considering she had to face da lot for wardrobe she did the best. Top 16, top 10, Top 5 and Top 3- Totally deserving. Winner- Yaass. Both of her answers were like the best and everybody accepts her as winner because it felt like deserving candidate has won. Thanks to this edition I can forget the 2020 season and sleep peacefully ✌️

[@jujushorts1053]

Agrre after the top 5 QA, India has a sure spot to top3 but Paraguay Philippines and Colombia are battling for the 3rd spot. Although south Africa has a controversial answer her delivery is on point. I just hope they gave Colombia and Philippines a bouquet of flowers as Top 5 finalist rather than standing at the back without nothing.

[@MRTNChannel]

What held Philippines back from the Top 3 was most likely the conviction in her answer. She was noticeably saying "um" and stammering a lot, so that lost the confidence of her answer. Similar with Colombia. She started strong, but I felt her getting uncertain in the second half of her answer. South Africa and Paraguay, whether they answered the question well enough or not, were both assertive and confident with how they spoke, which is why they both advanced to the Top 3 with India.

[@PungiFungi]

Some interesting stats: Puerto Rico finally broke its three-year curse and scored a fourth consecutive placement for the first time. Bahamas made it in for the first time. Singapore finally made cut since 1987 Aruba made the cut since 1996 Philippines continued on its streak Brazil's streak that started in 2011 ended. Thailand's streak also ended. Paraguay back in the top 5 after 2004 and 2006.

Amazing top 5 but Beatrice amazed me the most! The fact that she was never in the top 5 of the hotpicks before the final night, yet she proved everyone wrong. People doubted her, and that she will only place at most in the top 16, yet she was unstoppable. AND India really deserved it.

[@jolieluc]

Some thoughts. 1. Thailand's mention on any list was all sash factor because any other contestant with that walk would have been left off everyone's list. 2. Miss USA phoned it in during Evening Gown. She looked tired or overwhelmed? We've seen her strong walk and that wasn't it. 3. I think PR didn't make top 5 because she did too much during EG. Like the shoulders. What works for swimsuit doesn't always work for EG. 4. India was CONSISTENT throughout. Not a surprise she took the crown. Brava!

Philippines making it into the Top 5 was a really nice surprise for most Filipinos. A lot were actually expecting that she would just go as far as Top 16 because of her prelims performance, and I personally thought she would only end up at Top 10 (more so because she was called last in the Top 5 and delegates like France and Puerto Rico were still not called).

It really bothered me that we didn't get to see most of them have an "end of the runway" pose because cameras and production were going so fast, I feel like it was nice to get to see them walk so much, but I would have appreciated a "moment" before moving onto the next girl!

I think that Miss Thailand missed the top 16 not bec of her not so strong walk, but bec her confidence did not resonate. Since her advocacy is about body positivity, she needed to show that she can practice what she preached.

Congratulations to her, also to Miss India, and to the rest of the delegates. Thank you for this ep Dani 💛

[@DollsAndSpooks]

Here in the Philippines, we are very happy with Bea's Top 5 finish. True, in content her answer was better than Paraguay but I guess the tipping point was her delivery because she stuttered on some words. Then again, we just had Pia winning in 2015 and Catriona in 2018. Maybe the MU org was anxious that if they put Bea in Top 3, she might ace the question and it will put them in a very big dilemma. Are they going to crown a Philippine delegate again in such a short time? If Bea's answer was better than the other two and they did not crown her, wouldn't it be even more controversial? But still, we are so happy. After 2 years of only making it to the first cut, we are back in Top 5 and that's already an achievement.

[@gilbertbryce6712]

Hello, I think the org does not have a problem with crowning another Ms. Philippines. Remember way back 2008 and 2009, Venezuela got the crown back-to-back and clinched it again in 2013. It was only a five dear gap from the back-to-back win. Nothing is impossible😉

[@tommycabinbin7455]

We're consensus with Miss India as winner! Well deserved and no question asked! Hahahhahha!

[@ArnieB1974]

Hi Dani! I always appreciate your level-headed commentary & insights on pageantry. One other thing I heard why some ladies made the first cut was their overall attitude behind cameras. They are friendly towards the production staff & very professional with their dealings with the MUO people, which make them quite easy to work with. Perhaps when all the scores are closely bunched together during prelims (interviews, swimsuit, & evening gown), the determinant on who moves on to the next round rely on how they are towards the very people they potentially will closely work with.

[@rkt2525]

I think one misconception about pageant analysis is that just because someone can speak english it does not necessarily means she can be a good communicator or speaker. I love the top 16 this year because I believe everyone deserves a spot, and while someone may have a better parasela or physical beauty, I believe it is too shallow to select based on those criteria alone. I was impressed when I saw Singapore, Japan, and the Bahamas share their thoughts in the some MU clips, so their placement at the top makes me very happy. Top 16 Swimsuit: My top three choices were Puerto Rico, India, and France. I wish Venezuela had a better chance than Aruba, but I believe Aruba made such an impression on the judges that they couldn't give her a low score. Top 10 Long Gown: Colombia was at the top of my list, followed by the Philippines and India, and I believe this is a good top five. I prefer France to South Africa, but I know that if they call SA, France will not make it, so I'm happy with the outcome. Top 5 QnA: India : Solid answer SA : People consider her response to be divisive, but I believe the entirety of what she wants to say earned her a place at the top. "Everyone should be responsible for their actions," based on how I understood her message. Paraguay: That temple answer reminded me of Valeria's answer in Miss Colombia; by the way, I believe it is her being likable gets her to the final three. Colombia: I appreciate her response, but I wish she used her interpreter. Philippines: good response, but her flurry of sentences at the end cut her short. My Top 3 where: SA, India and Colombia Final Question: From this point forward, I believe this is already a no-bearing round. As Colombia and the Philippines had already been eliminated, India solidified her position. Even if Paraguay had a strong response (but she didn't) she wouldn't snatched the title from India, her appeal and beauty secured her at second spot. South Africa was the weakest of the top five in Swimsuit and Evening Gown, so even if she had a better answer than Paraguay, she's in third place for me. Conclusion: A good production, a high-quality Semifinalist, and a result that everyone (or the majority) is happy with

[@aldofuna2893]

I felt that too...Paraguay's answer in the top 5 is not that strong but it is evident that the judges loved her to to still make her go into top 3

[@fidelramos3763]

I have been waiting for this, best reaction ever and we are so proud to Philippines:)

[@DaniWalker]

[@ceedyco8117]

Yes girl, definitely. India to advance for top 3 is a must but Paraguay with her answer, I dont think was strong enough to make her into top 3.

[@johnkierfatalla3254]

I really love how you shared your thoughts, opinions and reaction without sounding biased. More subscribers to your channel, Dani! More powers. Love from the Philippines 🇵🇭

[@DaniWalker]

Thank you so much for coming to watch. Please share the channel with your friends

[@MRTNChannel]

I just realized. What's with South Africans and shoulder pads on gowns? It started with Demi, continued with Zozi, and continued again with Lalela.

[@neilmare2872]

We are proportionazing 🤣🤣🇿🇦❤ it give them some sexy shape i love it

[@JazzMeUinFLUSA]

Wow, I felt the same about the top 5 Q & A. I also thought it was India who really 100% sure of the top 3 placement then to be crowned as the Miss Universe 2021. She nailed the Q & A...sure winner.

[@koogenpillay306]

Lalela 🇿🇦faced many challenges but she fought for her dream! And for those commenting she carries Africa , she doesn’t represent Africa !!! There are 54 countries in Africa! She represents us South Africans! 🇿🇦🇿🇦🇿🇦 Step your game up !

[@yogeshbisht2033]

Great reaction. Love from India 🇮🇳❤

[@ML-xh6rd]

Watching this again to support Dani. Something happened to the original upload of this video. Glad it got fixed as it is a great recap of MU 2021.

[@DaniWalker]

Thank you!!!

[@venicerbalaod6700]

I just love how civil and tactful Miss Danny is. One of my fave pageant vloggers. ❤❤❤❤

[@DaniWalker]

🥰 thank you

[@yourcutiepiebaby3682]

OMG, aside from your good reaction, I'm obsessed with this look and get-up of yours for this recap~ LOVE IT!!!!

[@DaniWalker]

Oh thank you!!

[@imhumantoo9583]

Personally, I feel like Colombia, Paraguay and India did not "directly" answer the questions but because they sound confident of their answer, it felt like their answer is right. I don't believe in Cancel Culture but South Africa have a strong statement especially the part when she said that she also believed in Redemption Culture. Meanwhile, Philippines really "answered" the question but it's that stutter that held her back. Still, one of the best batch of Top 5 in Miss Universe but I think judges and people must not overlook the answers just because they sound pretty, we must focus on who answers the question "right". Congratulations to India, though. She deserves it! So pretty and smart!

[@blahblahblah4649]

I love this edition of miss universe full of positivity!!! The winner is deserving!!! The results is fair and square!!!

[@lorrenzom]

Best commentory as always, I like how unbiased u r when u give your views on these ladies. Keep up the great work 💙💖❤️

[@DaniWalker]

Thank you so much 🤗

[@sharmartinez]

Agree 100%! Dani, you are so authentic and genuine! 💖💖💖

[@josemanuelrocha2813]

Hi! I am very happy with Miss India's victory. To be honest, she and Miss Venezuela were always my Top 2. Last May, the beautiful Adline Castelino definitely proved that India has returned as Power House winning a well-deserved 4th place. Harnaaz Sandhu will be a great Miss Universe just like Andrea Meza was. Miss Paraguay was very beautiful, natural and fresh but for me, she never looked like a Miss Univers. Maybe Miss World was her place. However, Nadia Ferreira took her country's name very high and did not disappoint her millions of fans. As for the Miss Philippines and South Africa, I never thought they were extraordinarily beautiful and imposing but as IMG behaved badly with these 2 countries in May, they pushed these girls to the Top 5 and 3. It was a compensation but another 2 best candidates could be in their places. I really liked Miss Colombia but honestly I never saw her get any further than she actually got. Sorry for Miss Spain, Belgium, Namibia, Chile, Brazil, Costa Rica, Portugal, Thailand and the Czech Republic as they were beautiful and distinguished women. Greetings from Porto, Portugal.

[@charlesseakamela6212]

Stop degrading contestants. S.A and Philippines to start with are great speakers definitely they nailed the interview questions u can tell by how they have answered top5 question ans S.A to nail top 3 question with a strong non pageantry answer but more realistic and intellectual response. They were deserving like the other 3

[@kagosopeng6569]

Sorry but SA’s gown was perfect, so regal & sophisticated😮‍💨considering the fact that her gown designer dropped her a week before the competition I thought she outdid herself.

[@harshitabhuyan8892]

Oh damn i am from India and absolutely fell in love with Miss SA's gown.

[@samb3303]

South Africa had the best gown by far and very different than the dresses we have seen thousands of times 🇿🇦🇿🇦🇿🇦🇿🇦🇿🇦

[@tailoracademy3282]

i've been waiting for this review. thank you for making this video asap'

[@erodriguez592]

Thank you so much for this review! I love how positive and constructive you are! I wish all pageant vloggers could be like you, one in particular haha. I’m a Filipino American and I am SO proud of BEA and ALL the beautiful contestants on that stage!

[@DaniWalker]

Thank you so much!

[@mrabuano]

I just adore your commentary Dani. I agree completely that Elle is going to be a huge breakout star during and after her Miss USA year. I of course was 100% rooting for her to advance to Top 5 and just wondered about her energy level. She had such a busy few weeks! Hello from seattle!

[@DaniWalker]

What she did was impressive. I don't think I'd have the energy.

[@gaildelrio2488]

One of the best reviews as always. You always have technical inputs and that makes you a credible pageant analyst.

[@DaniWalker]

Thank you so much

[@wmire31]

I loved the show!! I loved Elle’s gown !! I just think the way she was placed in the order of evening gown being before India might have hurt her !! Finally USA had a beautiful gown !! I was expecting something a little more grand but wait until next year !!

[@kurdapyah4790]

India answered both the top five and top 3 questions with convictions.... But words has become kinda generic these days. Less talks and more actions should include pageants at the same time,

[@AgentAO7]

I love this year’s production. In fact, I have to say it’s at par with Thailand’s production in 2018. Israel definitely shut down the critics of them hosting this year. The stage looked spectacular! And I love the fact that they built everything from scratch including that big tent just for Miss Universe! Love the opening number with Noa Kirel, Love Jojo & Love the Final Look performance. And I’m so happy to have my predicted Top 2 be in the actual Top 2! Paraguay & India were consistent right from the start. I wasn’t sure at first where to put South Africa on my list but she was definitely on my Top 16. I’m so glad she made it that far after everything she’s been through.. South Africa definitely has proven to be another powerhouse country. I’m totally surprised this year’s El Tocuyo Awards went to Spain, Belgium & Thailand. I thought they were frontrunners & such strong contenders for the crown. Miss USA’s gown actually didn’t do her justice. The sheer parts didn’t match her skin tone. That’s one of my peptives. It’s supposed to be a nude illusion! I also prefer if she did a different hair styling. Maybe like a top bun. Something that people haven’t seen yet because her Miss USA stint was still fresh in everyone’s memory.. I’m sad that MUO totally let go of the Miss Congeniality & Miss Photogenic Awards. I was hoping to see that again.. Anyway, Congratulations India for a well-deserved victory! ❤️

[@MrHnd1988]

Was watching halfway and it got blocked. But i’m glad it is back! Thank you Dani.

[@DaniWalker]

You’re welcome 😊

[@pol4171]

In my opinion, I was surprised to see USA was not placed in top 5. I believe that if she was there, she would do great with the Q&A. Beside the beautiful face and angelic performance from Paraguay, her both answers were not strong enough. It would be more interesting to see USA, SA, and INDIA eat both Q&A round! The completion would be even tougher.

[@moonflower8829]

Yesss been waiting for this 🤍

[@adik_from_novaliches]

Fun fact: If you were focused on the Top 3 who were called you may not have noticed this, but after Paraguay was called into the Top 3, Philippines (Beatrice) hugged Colombia (Valeria). A similar occurance happened when in 2015, Miss Colombia (Ariadna) hugged Miss Philippines (Pia) when she stepped into Top 3. As a Filipino (also having known Valeria when she represented her country in Miss Earth 2018), I'm happy our girl, Bea gave back the gesture through Valeria, approximately 6 years later. Both of them made their countries proud for sure. ✨🇵🇭❤🇨🇴✨

[@j.d.devilliers4935]

I saw it. Was really such a great moment

[@toonhppy]

Miss India this year in my opinion is the most beautiful miss universe in IMG era. Well done & well deserving this year. And Miss Paraguay is also very very beautiful. Congraturation on India and on MUO for good job this year With love and happiness from THAILAND

[@elizabethm6127]

I had to work so I couldn't watch the competition but from what I have seen, it was such a good year! I am so proud of Elle as well! She did incredible, but I did agree, I would tottttttallllllly have wanted Elle to have her hair down! Thanks for the coverage Dani!

[@DaniWalker]

You're very welcome! :)

[@lizlienunez6921]
