hi Hebe,
I will have to take a look. I have to admit im not exactly a huge beauty contest fan, but I always enjoy the big ones for some reason. maybe its the drama when they win.

Default Instead of watching a beauty pageant...

I recommend you spend 90 minutes watching the 2006 film Little Miss Sunshine.

Default Watch It!

I'd heard so much about it that I thought it couldn't possibly live up to the hype, but nevertheless found myself laughing out loud and hard on multiple occasions. People love to compare it to American Beauty, but for the effects it had on me, I prefer to compare it to Napoleon Dynamite.

Hola colegas . ¿Que les pareció los resultados del "Miss UNiverse? Particularmente pienso que India y México debieron estar entre las 5 semi-finalistas. Por otra parte, aunque la representante de Japón es muy bonita, pienso que la delegada japonesa del año pasado (quien quedó como 1ra finalista) merecía mas la corona. De todas formas era de esperarse que este año no ganara una latina ya que el año pasado fue coronada Puerto Rico. ¿Que opinan Uds')

I actually liked Korea the most but was not disappointed by Japan winning. I feel the same way that some of the decisions may be made beforehand. Of course USA was in the top 5 since the owner of the pageant is from the US. I did not like the way she was booed at though - some people have no class.

I did not like her being booed at either. It was not nice at all. Fortunately, she handled the situation pretty well. I also agree that if they had decided to choose an Asian girl this yea, Korea would have been a much better option. However, in my opinion, this year some Latin contestants (Brazil and Venezuela) were better.
Funny .. last year the winner should have been Japan (big favorite that night), and yet they decided to crown Puerto Rico; this year they did exactly the opposite. Those are the things I don't understand about this pageant.
