### Fans reaction to the first season of Miss Infinite pageant.

Fans of the first season of Miss Infinite pageant were excited to see a lot of strong contestants from the BIG 6 pageants join, such as Miss Universe, Miss World, and Miss Supranational, Miss International, Miss Eart & Miss Grand etc... However, there were also some shocks and surprises along the way.

* Peruvian fans were shocked when their girl, Miss Peru - Alessia Rovegno, did not make the top 8. Rovegno was a strong contender throughout the competition, and her fans were confident that she would place well. However, the judges ultimately decided to eliminate her in the early rounds.
* Venezuelan fans were also shocked when their delegate, Miss Venezuela - Mariah Gomez, did not make the top 4. Gomez was another strong performer throughout the competition, and her fans were disappointed to see her go. Some fans speculated that Gomez's elimination may have been due to her country's political.

Rumor has it that the original top 16 included Miss Alodia Kingdom, but she was removed and replaced by Miss Haiti after breaking news emerged that her father was a terrorist. This caused a lot of controversy among fans, who were divided on whether or not it was fair to punish Miss Alodia Kingdom for her father's actions.

Fans were also shocked that many strong delegates did not make the top 16, such as mega fan favorite from Asia, Chuzan Republic, as well as Costa Rica and Chile. Some fans accused the judges of being biased towards certain countries such as Miss Indonesia, Miss Thailand & hometown girl, Miss USA

Despite the shocks and surprises, fans were overall positive about the first season of Miss Infinite pageant. They thought the production was good and the winner, Miss Caribbean, was quite deserving.
