A petition was signed by over 20 of the contestants for the Miss Universe organisation to look into the Miss Universe UK (now Miss Universe GB) company, because there were widespread rumours of the competition results being a fix. Disputes were raised over the fact that several of the judges who sat in front of the audience for the catwalk round, were not present for the interview section and vice versa. It was also questioned why the winner Lisa Lazarus, was a close friend of the event organisers and owner of Vibe Models, it was widely known that the winner travelled from Wales to the London event with the organisers and that they even travelled together to rehearsals. Although girls who were not a UK size 8-10 competed, the organization confirmed after the event, that the winner needed to be this size in the letter that was sent as a reply to the allegations that the winner had already been decided before the event. All involved were assured by organisers that there was no foul play and that even though the winner had posed in provocative nude photoshoots and done other glamour modelling, that this is acceptable and she can still be crowned, though other beauty queens such as Danielle Lloyd were dethroned for doing similar shoots. These allegations were silenced when the organisers threatened to sue those who questioned the fairness of the competition and nothing has clearly been proven, though since this time the choreographer for the Miss Universe Organisation, Michael Schwandt has also indicated that the competition may be fixed.
