A few days before the Miss France 2025 ceremony, a candidate has, despite herself, triggered a bad buzz on social networks. His profession, rather rare, is controversial!
While the regional candidates returned from their preparation trip to Ivory Coast and were busy preparing for the grand final of Miss France 2025, a first controversy broke out on Twitter. The profession of Miss Auvergne, Romane Agostinho, triggered criticism and mockery on the Web. The 27-year-old young woman, originally from Beaumont in Puy-de-Dôme, works as an animal osteopath.
Miss Auvergne 2024: her job triggers controversy
Romane Agostinho initially wanted to become a veterinarian, but she quickly changed paths. “The more difficult side of the veterinary profession, such as euthanasia, appealed to me less“, she confided to Tele-Leisure. It is therefore towards the profession of animal osteopath that she headed: “The fact that it is alternative care, always when the patient is in good health and when the owner seeks well-being for his animal, it is really another approach.“.
On Twitter, dozens of Internet users reacted to the announcement of his profession, presented by Gossip Room as “osteopath for eagles”; we can notably see the miss on Instagram with birds of prey. “Ah yes anyway… for eagles. It's very very sharp in the delirium” ; “Already osteopathy among humans is charlatanism… so among eagles!” ; “I would love to have a bullshit job like that too“or again”His profession is illegal“…
The profession of animal osteopath is still relatively unknown and therefore intrigues many curious people. So, when Miss Auvergne 2024 revealed that she had specialized in the care of birds of prey such as eagles and owls, some Internet users inquired and rushed to add a community note on Twitter: since December 31 2019, any non-veterinarian practicing osteopathy must be registered on the National Register of Fitness, indicates the site Vétérinaire.fr. Otherwise, the person may be prosecuted before the Public Prosecutor for illegal practice of veterinary medicine and surgery. Is Romane Agostinho then in good standing?

On social networks, many Internet users have therefore questioned the validity of Miss Auvergne's profession. Will she respond to the controversy? Will this buzz harm her less than two weeks before the big night of the Miss France ceremony, on December 14?
In any case, the 27-year-old young woman was delighted to highlight her profession, before this controversy. “Several of my colleagues are behind me because they say it's great for our profession which deserves to be better known. It's a very recognized area in the equine field for example, but dog and cat owners don't dare take the plunge so maybe it will help them“, she confided to Tele-Leisure.
