A size 2 carrying 129 pounds on her 5-foot-8 frame, Domonique Ramirez is hardly what most people would call overweight. But the 17-year-old Texan says she was stripped of her le as Miss San Antonio because, among other things, she put on a few pounds.
Ramirez filed a lawsuit against the Miss Bexar County Organization after the group informed her on Jan. 25 that they were stripping her of her le and handing it over to first runner-up Ashley Dixon. For now, a judge has blocked Dixon from claiming the le until Ramirez’s legal complaint is addressed, and a growing war of words has ignited between the beauty queen and the people who crowned her last April.

Weighty issues
While Miss San Antonio pageant board president Linda Woods claims Ramirez’s “weight was never an issue,” the teen tells a different story — saying Woods told her to “stay off the tacos” if she wanted to keep her crown. Ramirez told KSAT-TV in San Antonio she was told to lose 13 pounds.
But Woods has countered that Ramirez’s weight was the least of the teen queen’s issues; she maintains Ramirez showed up for some promotional events an hour late, or not at all, and violated pageant rules by bringing her boyfriend to events.

Still, Woods conceded that pageant officials had talked to Ramirez about her weight, saying they were worried that Ramirez had gotten heavier since winning the pageant, and they wanted her to look her best when she competed in the Miss Texas pageant this summer.

“She was doing a photo shoot and asked to wear her wardrobe from the compe ion, but it did not fit her,” Woods told ABC News. “I told her, ‘We need to get you on an exercise program. We need to get you ready to compete for Miss Texas, just like any other other elite athlete.’ ”
Woods told KSTA Radio in San Antonio she did advise Ramirez on her eating habits. “I said, you know, ‘Get off the tacos, get off the chips and soda.’ Because she’s 17, and that’s what these kids eat.”
The laundry list of other complaints against her performance as Miss San Antonio left Ramirez in tears — and ready to fight back. “I’m 17 years old,” she told KSAT. “I shouldn’t have to be slandered like this, and my future shouldn’t have to be ruined over this.”

But in what has come down to a nasty battle of she-said, she-said, Woods claims Ramirez’s conduct has been decidedly unbecoming of a beauty queen.
“The main thing was that she did not make it to functions that she was scheduled for that she agreed to do,” Woods told KSAT. “Sometimes, she didn’t show up at all and didn’t even call to tell you she wasn’t coming, or, if she did come, she would come an hour and a half late, unprepared, unready, and it just continued being a habitual thing with her.”

Racial overtones?
Ramirez countered by saying the pageant board promised her a chaperone to take her to events, but didn’t deliver. And having only just gotten her driver’s license, Ramirez says she couldn’t navigate her way around San Antonio well enough to be on time for every event.
But Woods insisted to the London Daily Mail that Ramirez declined using a chaperone, preferring to be escorted by her parents. Ramirez’s lawyer, Luis Vera Jr., said the teen’s Latino parents both work full-time, making it impossible for them to drive her around to every Miss San Antonio event.

Speaking to the San Antonio Express, Vera even indicated there may have been racial overtones in the move to oust his client.
“The way I see this is these rich, white Dominion types versus the Latinos who are busting themselves to make a living,” he said.
Added Ramirez: “They’re bringing up stuff from the past and making up stuff that is not even true.”
A court date on the case is set for Feb. 16.

lol "elite athlete".
Certainly not a lite onelol "elite athlete".
Her hair turned brown, so they took away the crown??? WTF???
She does look quite a bit different from pics #1 and 2 to pics #14 and 15.

And the pageant offical says it was much more then her porking down tacos, that the final straw was her modeling in some bridal show which purportedly is a contact conflict. Lots more comments in the pictures section.
Somebodies lying, that's for sure.

I enjoyed how she was something like an hour late for an interview with KENS earlier this week to talk about her side of the story.
Thanks for representing the Latinos, fatty.
Well, it's fair to say she did change in her look s quite a bit. The weigh gain is obvious.
Pretty funny when the first runner-up who was named to replace her is an African- American girl who attends St. Phillip's College.“The way I see this is these rich, white Dominion types versus the Latinos who are busting themselves to make a living,” he said.
I'd smash.
Who is this pic supposed to be?Well, it's fair to say she did change in her look s quite a bit. The weigh gain is obvious.
WTF did they expect?
DamnWell, it's fair to say she did change in her look s quite a bit. The weigh gain is obvious.
Not even 18 and she has already gone to seed...
^^ The bottom picture is not even her. It's Wild Cobra with his Faux News style reporting.
Or is it??!! I will make a retraction 'Bra if that really is her. No way!

Well, that's the pic associated with an article about the case.
Looked at it again. I think it was a photo of the person making the remark Not her.
Sorry.
Foe News?
"the teen's Latino parents" and "The way I see this is these rich, white Dominion types versus the Latinos who are busting themselves to make a living" That guy doesn't seem to understand how those pageants work; it costs a load of money, from the parent's pocket, to even get started. If they are "busting themselves" to make a living and keep their daughter in pageants, that's their problem. Girls can secure sponsorships later on down the line if they are successful in a few pageants, but the initial funding comes from mommy and daddy.
I just don't understand what it is that motivates young women and their parents to subject themselves to that whole pageant lifestyle. There is a severe case in my family; parents have spent hundreds of thousands to keep their girl in the limelight----she's won every le up to Miss Teen Richmond and Miss Teen Virginia. And they claim they are doing it for the education and scholarships---they have already spent several colllege educations!
Has anyone checked out Toddlers & Tiaras? Very. Creepy.
If the "latino parents" were really "busting themselves to make a living", that girl would need to get off her size two ass and get a job to help out her family, not drive around being late for public appearances.
Extremely creepy.
I wonder how many pedophiles watch such things?
chick ain't even cute.. wtf?
And what's with this "tabacco chewing San Antoners"?
I could only watch for about 5 minutes.
Have you looked in a mirror lately, you bucktoothed goon?
