Oxana Fedorova was rumored to be pregnant. She denied the pregnancy rumors and said that she voluntarily gave up her crown for personal reasons (she wanted to finish her law degree).

She later stated in an interview that she had declined to perform her duties because she was so insulted by her treatment on The Howard Stern Show. She blamed the pageant organizers for not warning her of the nature of questions Stern often asks.

Does miss universe keep the crown forever?

No. The outgoing Miss Universe will pass the crown to her successor like an heirloom. From the 70s to the 90s, titleholders got to keep the crown, and a new crown will simply be made for their successor. However, this is only because the crowns used back then were made of rhinestone, or imitation jewelry - relatively cheap to make. Today, with the crown being used by the Miss Universe Organization costing around $300,000 and being made of pure topaz and Bohemian crystals (the previous Diamond Nexus Crown costs roughly the same amount, and the Mikimoto crown before that costs approximately $250,000), making one for every winner is simply impractical. From 2002 to 2007, Mikimoto, the crown-maker for Miss Universe at the time, provided smaller versions of the tiara to be given to the outgoing titleholders as a token, although succeeding companies Diamond Nexus and DIC did not follow this tradition.
