嘲对手“菜英文”犯众怒美国小姐急道歉

2018年12月16日

（曼谷16日综合电）2018年环球小姐选美大赛日前在泰国盛大登场。不过就在活动前几天，代表美国参赛的“美国小姐”桑莫斯，却爆出自拍视频嘲笑对手不会说英文，引发轩然大波。事后她在IG公开致歉。

据报导，来自内布拉斯加州佳丽桑莫斯和友人在直播视频中，失态嘲讽他国选美小姐的英文程度。一位是柬埔寨小姐伦恩，另一位是越南小姐倪函。桑莫斯甚至一度模仿倪函揶揄一番。

桑莫斯在视频中说道：“她很可爱耶，她假装很懂英文，然后你跟她对话一整段后问她问题，她就会这样（点头微笑）”、“真是太可爱了。”在视频中，她也提到柬埔寨小姐：“柬埔寨小姐完全不会说英文耶，没有其他任何人会说她的语言。你能想像吗？”

视频流出后，引发网友一阵挞伐，认为桑莫斯种族歧视又心胸狭窄。桑莫斯也紧急在IG贴文灭火：“我原意想表达我对（对手）姊妹们的勇气感到佩服，但我现在理解到，可能被解读为不尊重，我道歉。”她强调这场选美旨在学习不同文化，没有意图要伤害任何人。

无辜遭奚落的倪函和伦恩也不计前嫌，在Instagram上发布5人微笑拥抱在一起的照片，强调“爱、理解、尊重”。伦恩在贴文中表示，在环球小姐比赛中获得的友谊和姐妹情谊将永愿留在她心中，“这次经验使我们有机会展现和学习彼此不同的文化”。倪函也写道：“女孩们，明天会更美好，我们是一家人。”照片中，倪函亲吻桑默斯的脸颊，关系似乎未受影响。

@MissUniverse is an opportunity for women from around the world to learn about each other’s cultures, life experiences, and views. We all come from different backgrounds and can grow alongside one another. In a moment where I intended to admire the courage of a few of my sisters, I said something that I now realize can be perceived as not respectful, and I apologize. My life, friendships, and career revolve around me being a compassionate and empathetic woman. I would never intend to hurt another. I am grateful for opportunities to speak with Nat, Miss Cambodia, and H’Hen, Miss Vietnam, directly about this experience. These are the moments that matter most to me.
