Thai entertainment industry is buzzing with the latest updates surrounding the contestants of the popular Miss Grand Thailand pageant, especially concerning Nawat Isarakraisil, who is at the center of both legal drama and pageant excitement.
Nawat recently revealed he has been hit with defamation lawsuits from Korean star Kamin, the former girlfriend of Thai celebrity Nack Charlie. The lawsuit, which claims damages of several million baht, has piqued public interest. "I’m not worried about the lawsuit because I believe I acted according to the facts," Nawat stated confidently, reminding everyone he has been active in the entertainment industry for many years and has always supported his colleagues financially. He added, "If she (Kamin) fails to show up, we can address it accordingly." The upcoming court appearance is scheduled for February 20, and Nawat emphasized he is prepared to fight back if necessary.
Meanwhile, the buzz doesn't stop at legal battles; it also extends to the Miss Grand Thailand pageant preparations. Nawat recently commended contestant Weena, noting her impressive achievement of reaching 4 million baht sales from live streaming over four days and aiming for the set target of 10 million. “Weena’s efforts to reach 10 million sales are commendable, and we all need to strive for success together,” he remarked, highlighting the competitive spirit expected from the contestants.
While discussing the pageant format, Nawat made comparisons between the Miss Grand Thailand competition and the Miss Universe Thailand contest. He firmly stated, “Our format is unique. While Miss Grand has four key pillars—Body, Beauty, Brain, and Business—Miss Universe only focuses on three.” This arrangement, according to him, gives Miss Grand contestants the extra competition edge and challenges them to perform at their best.
Another pressing issue addressed by Nawat is the potential fanfare and excitement surrounding Miss Universe Thailand this year. When asked if he felt threatened by the competition, he quickly dismissed any fears, emphasizing the distinctiveness of the Miss Grand format and encouraging participants to aim high. "Every contestant has the ability to achieve their desired results if they work hard and put their minds to it. We are setting new standards," he affirmed.
Despite the legal issues at hand, Nawat remains focused on nurturing the talent within the pageant world, ensuring all contestants maintain high performance standards. The pageant season is upon us, and competitors are being held to showcasing their skills and charm, allowing for the best representatives to emerge.
This year’s Miss Grand Thailand promises to be especially memorable, especially with Nawat’s hands-on involvement and high-stakes ambitions. He maintains his final goal: hoping the aspirations of all contestants will shine, reinforced by their efforts to make remarkable sales and demonstrate undeniable charisma.
Indeed, with all these developments surrounding Nawat, Kamin, and Weena, the stage is set for not only thrilling pageant performances but also significant legal disputes intertwined within the glamorous world of Thai entertainment. Little do they know how intertwining drama can fuel both public interest and personal determination within this competitive industry.
