After several long weeks, the Miss Universe pageant drama continues as the latest unfortunate move was just confirmed. It has just been reported that Miss USA co-host Cheryl Burke has stepped down after the recent statement of Donald Trump regarding Mexico.

Indeed it was surely unforeseen that Trump's recent comment saying, "When Mexico sends its people, they're not sending their best. They're not sending you. They're sending people that have lots of problems, and they're bringing those problems with us. They're bringing drugs. They're bringing crime. They're rapists. And some, I assume, are good people," would have this big of an effect.

And now the recent persona to pull out of her duties in the prestigious contest is Burke who recently stated that she joins NBC Universal that also recently cut ties with Trump preventing the contest to be televised in the network from now on.

"In light of the recent statements made by Donald Trump and the subsequent decision by NBC to cut ties with Mr. Trump, I cannot in good conscience move forward with participating in this year's Miss USA Pageant as its co-host," Burke's statement reads.

"Effective today I have withdrawn from my duties with Miss USA. Although I will not be there in person, I wish all of the contestants much luck as I know how hard they've all been working over the last year to try and realize their dreams," she added.

And speaking of the contestants, it has just been confirmed that there will be no contestant from Mexico as Trump's recent statements were very discouraging for the Mexican population according to Lupita Jones, a former Miss Universe winner who helps run Mexico's national pageant. In a statement, Jones said that Trump "has not shown understanding or respect toward Mexican migrants and has offended the entire Mexican population."

Jones, from Mexican Media Company Televisa also stated that they will not be sending a candidtate solely because of Trump. "It is unacceptable for Grupo Televisa to have any kind of business relationship with Miss Universe and the companies that form the Trump organization," Jones added.
