Miss Universe Organization Says Russian Anti-Gay Laws Go Against Its Values, But Not Moving Out of Moscow

Activists pressing the group to leave Moscow

The Miss Universe Organization believes the show must go on in Moscow … and it doesn't matter that the Russian government is gay-hostile.

A rep from the MUO tells us the new, anti-gay law violates the core values of the organization … nevertheless, they want to stay put in Moscow.  They say they're hoping to change Russian minds.  Good luck with that.
