This file photo taken on February 7, 2006 shows Venezuelan Alicia Machado, former Miss Universe 1996, as she holds February's issue of Playboy Mexico magazine open in a double page with her picture in Mexico City. Fresh off his presidential clash with Hillary Clinton, Donald Trump doubled down September 27, 2016 on criticism of a former Miss Universe he accused of getting too fat, comments that could repel women voters. Alicia Machado, who won the crown in 1996, has accused Trump – whose company owned the Miss Universe pageant until last year – of calling her “Miss Piggy” and “Miss Housekeeping”, and publicly humiliating her over her post-victory weight gain.
