Trump Dumped! Univision Drops Miss USA Pageant Over Mexican Immigrant Remarks

“We will not be … working on any other projects tied to the Trump Organization,” company tells TheWrap

(Updated at 3.50 p.m. PT. Co-host Rosalyn Sanchez has also pulled out of the pageant over Trump’s speech. “Although I am not Mexican, I am Puerto Rican and a proud Latina, and his comments were an insult to our culture. I won’t sponsor anything produced by Donald Trump,” she said.)

Univision has elected to end its business relationship with the Miss Universe Organization due to part-owner Donald Trump’s “recent, insulting remarks about Mexican immigrants,” the company told TheWrap on Thursday via a statement.

The broadcaster “will not be … working on any other projects tied to the Trump Organization,” the entertainment group continued — that includes no longer airing the July 12 Miss USA pageant as planned.
