The beauty queen speaking to NBC News said she was determined to show her confidence because she wasn't doing anything wrong.
'I want to prove that the Iraqi woman has her own existence in society, she has her rights like men. I am afraid of nothing, because I am confident that what I am doing is not wrong.'
According to Reuters, at least two young women had pulled out of the contest after receiving death threats. And organisers dropped the swimsuit section of the competition and postponed the televised finale in an attempt to deflect some of the criticism from religious hardliners and conservative tribal leaders who said such pageants are un-Islamic and threatened public morality.
The first and last time Iraq participated in a major international beauty pageant was in 1972 when Wijdan Burhan al-Deen represented the country at the Miss Universe contest.

"Courage is grace under pressure. This is what Pia showed in the middle of the confusion and controversy that marked her coronation as the new Miss Universe. Remember, when I lost to Floyd last May, she made a promise to all of us Filipinos that she will avenge that defeat come the Miss Universe pageant, which she just has fulfilled. I intend to use [that] as an inspiration and additional motivation for me in my next fight." Pacquiao said

Things went sour after the mistress found out 44 year old Lennon had been dating a third woman, and she told him she will reveal their relationship to his wife. Lennon then turned nasty, telling her someone “could” put a knife to her throat if she spoke out. A week later he offered her £10,000 cash to end their relationship. She did not take the money.
“He told me he’d pay the money and I could start afresh,” said Kim (the imaginary name given by the mirror). "I honestly thought it was his way of looking after me. He’d used to say he loved me, that I made him a better person. I believed this was his way of helping me move on. But I decided I didn’t want his money. I didn’t want to be bought.”Days later, with Lennon in Ipswich overseeing a Bolton defeat, Kim knocked on Irene’s door and confessed to the affair. Kim claimed:
“When I told Irene about what had been going on, her reaction was one of sadness more than surprise. She invited me in and we talked things through. She even poured me a glass of wine. I sent her a voice recording I’d made of Neil’s rants at me. "She apologised on his behalf.
Lennon told police he was being blackmailed, even though Irene McCloy, his partner and mother of his child, had already been told of the affair by Kim.
Kim said: “Neil Lennon’s ruined my life. He told me he loved me and made me feel part of his life. But just like he has cheated on Irene, he was doing the same to me. When I found out, he became a monster. "He made me fear for my life. He set powerful lawyers on me – and I found a police officer challenging my behaviour. "But no one is too powerful to bury the truth.”
After conducting investigations privately, Bolton Wanderers football club released the following statement.
''Bolton Wanderers Football Club can announce that they have now concluded an internal investigation into an article published in The Sunday Mirror on Sunday 20 December. The club has dealt with the matter internally and acted accordingly, details of which will remain private. Neil Lennon will remain in charge of the first team squad. The club will be making no further comment on the matter."
