Did Toni turn Binibining Pilipinas coronation night to a comedy bar?
MANILA, Philippines - Ultimate Multimedia star Toni Gonzaga trends on social media during the Binibining Pilipinas coronation held last night at the Araneta Coliseum.
Xian Lim who wore a Francis Libiran suit and Toni Gonzaga who looked magical on her Michael Cinco gown were the hosts of the coronation night. Besides Toni's whimsical gown that got people talking, she created a wildfire on the Internet because some netizens did not like her dismissive remarks during the question and answer portion.

At some point in the competition, Toni compared a candidate's earring to a "chandelier":
When Binibining 28 Hannah Ruth Sison, took the center stage for the Q&A:
Xian: Hello Hanna, welcome back
Toni: Wow, your earrings, has its own theme song. (Singing) "I’m gonna swing from the chandelier" (then held the contestant’s earrings).
She also mocked one of the judge's surname:
Toni to Binibining 25: I love your last name Rogelie Catacutan . But red might be your lucky color for tonight. Let’s see who you’re judge is. Oh Mr. Frederick Go, go.. go
Some said that the event turned into a comedy and a noon time show:
This is supposed to be an elegant event, why turn it to "comedy"? #BbPilipinas2015

Toni Gonzaga hosting #BbPilipinas2015 made me confused. I thought it's ASAP replay.

While some loved the entertainment injected on the pageant.
It's a beauty contest.Not an awards night for a diplomat or a ceremony for someone receiving a Nobel Peace Prize.I'm on #ToniGonzaga's side.

Some Netizens came into Toni's defense, saying that the reason why Toni was throwing punchlines was to remove the candidates' tension.
Punchline after punchline @ToniGonline is stealing the show. But it lessens the tension of the Q&A. #BbPilipinas2015

But, it was Nina Ricci Alagao who got Toni's fans extremely irritated. On her Facebook account, the 2002 pageant title holder made a nasty remark regarding Toni's hosting, even posting harsh comments about the physique of Toni Gonzaga 15 years ago.
