Alicia Machado, who gained fame in 1996 for being crowned Miss Universe at the age of 19, had claimed that Trump called her ‘Miss Piggy’. The Venezuelan-born model claimed that these remarks came as she’d put on some weight after her win, BBC reported.
Machado also claimed that Trump had threatened to take her crown after she gained weight. “He was overwhelming. I was very scared of him. He’d yell at me all the time. He’d tell me: ‘You look ugly’ or ‘You look fat’. Sometimes he’d ‘play’ with me and say: ‘Hello, Miss Piggy’, ‘Hello, Miss Housekeeping’,” she said, as per BBC.
