IMG has sold the Miss Universe Organization (MUO), which oversees the annual pageant, to the company of Thai transgender business mogul Anne Jakapong Jakrajutatip. It is the first time a woman has owned the organization in its 71-year-history.

Amy Emmerich and Paula Shugart, the MUO's current CEO and president, will continue to hold those roles under the new management, the statement said.

"Paula and I see tremendous opportunity with JKN to create further growth for this organization on the global stage and women around the world," Emmerich said in the statement."Despite having recently celebrated the organization's legacy of more than 70 years, we are just getting started." "We're equally proud of the progress the organization has made in becoming a more inclusive and powerful platform where women can advance both their business objectives and their cause-based work," said Mark Shapiro, president of Endeavor — the parent company of IMG.

A woman now owns it...

God made them male and female and there is nothing you can do about it.

…and it’s still not owned by a woman.

Many candidates are deserving folks

Ruined another thing for REAL women.

* man pretending to be a woman. Black face and woman face are the same thing. Stop pretending it is OK.

No a man still owns it
