Miss Universe

[Doom and gloom]

Am being held hostage on the TV at home, so...I might as well make a wager...

(Emmitt Smith is a judge, Go figure what retirement does.)

I had US, Switzerland and Ethiopia on a trifecta..just not sure how to list them.

Haven't decided who to bet on winning.

 

[Sxysprtswrtr]

Hey, when's that supposed to end? Did it just begin?

 

[Doom and gloom]

Not that I was looking for it, but the family jumped me as I surfed to stop. I think ti started at 8.

Over at 10.

Central time.

I'd hit it. [/obvious]

Miss Colombia is gorgeous. Miss Paraguay looks like Jeff Gordon's first wife.

OK.. this thread prompted me to turn it on and I really think Tibet just winked as she showed her dress.  Damn, Columbia just did it, too.  

I think I'd have to agree with dammit's assessment of the field.

 

[Doom and gloom]

Ethiopia should have been in the top 10. Nice. And it would have been one of those good political statements too. She'd been a country's hero.

Like beauty contests ought to do that.

I can't remember who the second evening gown was but she was VERY poised. Her posture was amazing. I used to watch ALL these pageants and wish it were me in them. Then I woke up and remembered I don't look like Barbie

 

[imjustagirl2]

What channel?

 

[Evil Bastard (aka Chris_L)]

Thread is useless without pictures

(in the old days I would have the eye candy pictures well in hand - so to speak)

;D

Turks and Caicos and St. Vincent and the Grenadines....too much of a mouthful. You'd spend most of your crown time explaining where the hell you come from.

 

[SockPuppet]

I'd hit 'em.

Is it just me or is the Latvian contestant lying about her age. Looks like she's 42 not 22 on that link of mug shots that was posted.

 

[Football_Bat]

I couldn't see Miss Ethiopia. Was she standing sideways?

Ducking and covering ....

She probably got to the U.S. at 2, adopted, and is looking quite healthy.


I'm TIVOing that Queer Eye guy out of the coverage.....his drama and ranting is just a notch above nausea in my book.

I thought the exact same thing. I showed one of my guy friends and he said, "That is NOT a milf. That's gross."

Pretty bad mug. Damn.

That Miss Lebanon gal looks like she just got told her Hezbollah brother got blown to bits.

She got booted for a head butt early in the competition.

Switzerland appropriately Barbie-esque, but a little cross-eyed.
Paraguay has too many ribs showing in her upper chest. That left-eye tick is interesting too. Good strut, though.
Japan - Pretty, but obvious boob job.
USA - Too many ruffleson the dress, sort of a "That girl from Laguna Beach who dated Nick Lachey for the pub" look. Generic SoCal, but that usually plays well.
Puerto Rico - Dress not flattering, kind of pushes her boobs up way beyond the stratosphere, hair looks greasy.


Guessing? Switzerland, followed by USA, then Japan.
Puerto Rico not a playa.

Can't believe I just rated the Miss Universe contestants. Doesn't seem to be a bumper crop, although I like Ivory girls, as girls go, and I'm betting all of them look a lot better in a pair of Daisy Dukes and a pony tail than with all that war paint.
