‘You’re My Foreignoy’ winner becomes Miss Universe photobomber
Amidst all the glitz and glamour of the Miss Universe grand coronation event, one lucky fan got his moment on the spotlight by “photombing” some of the pageant's moments with the most beautiful women in the world.
Chinese-Filipino model and TV personality Richard Juan instantly became a viral internet sensation when his beaming face appeared right behind Miss Universe 2015 Pia Alonzo Wurtzbach, who was then doing her final walk.
“Thank you @magicliwanag for making me the most famous photobomber in Miss Universe,” Richard said, thanking the photographer behind the iconic shot.
Richard gained popularity in 2014 when he joined Eat Bulaga's “You're My Foreignoy” contest, which showcased the talents and good looks of foreigners with hearts of a true Pinoy.
He was one of the crowd favorites, and he eventually won the Dabarkads' Choice Award and earned the nickname “The Trending Boy” for always being in the Top 10 Twitter trends during the duration of the competition.
Richard could also be seen in one of Miss France (and eventual winner) Iris Mittenaere's photos during the swimsuit competition.
