Default Winners

4th place - Venezuela..very beautiful, but she didn't do well on her question. Loved her dress..if it was quite a few sizes bigger and if I was really fit I would love to wear it. LOL

3-Mexico

2-Dominican Republic

first runner up -Puerto Rico

1st- CANADA

Although I will say honestly...I am extrememly proud to be Canadian..but in my personal opinion, sorry canada, she was not in the top 5 looks wise. She must been a few great person personality wise....

Default Good show

Damn, did I ever call those top 5! I picked out exactly the five that ended up there. I guess if the Dominican girl couldn't win, I have to be happy that at least Canada did! I liked those two more than the Puerto Rican anyways. Mexico was pretty. And yes, the Venezuelan girl had a beautiful dress!

Default Venezuela

Venezuela was my personal favorite. She had a very natural and innocent beauty. She actually resembles Amelia Vega alot! What killed her was her speech. The poor thing should have spoken in spanish!

Dominican Republic said "cause" instead of "because"!! That is soo cute!

Canada was the most graceful and natural when she spoke. Obviously, knowing perfect english helps! She deserved to win.. she had the most connection with the audience.

On a side note, I think the latina girls should have spoken in SPANISH!

Actually, she has the most beautiful eyes.

After they selected the final 5, I thought that it was going to be between her and Mexico.

Default How I view this...

For me, Puerto Rico was the most beautiful girl in that contest. She does ressemble Amelia like no one else and she had a perfect dominium of English, which helped here. The only thing is that she answered to the question taking too much time to get to the point.

Venezuela was not that pretty for me (of course, comparatively). She was asked maybe the toughest question (about the political problems in her country and what could be done to improve that situation). However, she managed to answer it kind of wisely (not talking too much about the obvious political semichaos in Venezuela). I've seen other Venezuelan girls on television which are prettier than her. Even in soap operas: has anyone here watched "Todos quieren con Marilyn"?

The Mexican girl was B-E-A-U-T-I-F-U-L. But there were better bodies out there than hers. I didn't quite understand her answer.

What can I say about my fellow countrywoman? She had in her favor her height, she was well prepared and empathic. But I was thinking that Puerto Rico was too much a competition for her. Guess what? I was wrong! Canada was considered Miss Universe and not Miss Puerto Rico, Miss Mexico or Miss Dominican Republic.

Congrats to all canadians. I seize the opportunity to ask if there happen to be canadian women on this forum at least the half as their compatriot (who by the way has some Russian descent)

Btw...what made up the actualy background of our Miss Universe from Canada...to me she looked a bit Italian....

Then again I am "Canadian" but I am French, Ukuranian, Russian, German, Scandinavian...and a few other things..I can never keep it all straight..so I jsut say Canadian...
