French you say? Blink

but I have to disagree with your view on her costume. Her outfit was hot! Not something I expected her to wear as her nationality costume.

I wonder what 1st runner up gets.... scratch


yup, french...they asked her a question about how she learned to speak french and spanish and she launched into a whole answer in french (i didn't hear any spanish in there tho...but she was speaking like 10000 miles a minute) and her poor translator took a step back and was like "that wasn't japanese, i can't help"

...and you missed the part where i said dress...i was talking about the dress she wore, not her nationality costume. her nationality costume can hardly be called a dress ...i actually loved her nationality costume (i admit, its because i'm a cosplayer too)

Congrats to Puerto Rico but I'm very dissapointed about the outcome. When mostly South American/White women take up most of the top 20 and only 1 asian makes it to the top 10, you know the contest is somewhat biased.

Not to mention Japan's answer was more intelligent than most of the girls' Q&A.

Either way, I don't really get worked up over pageants since it's mainly focused on beauty and not really on the questions.

i agree with everyone that the girls were beautiful, but i think that they picked the wrong girl for miss universe Mad . she is supposed to personify someone that everyone can look up to. the girl that they chose, just looked fake and her beauty just seemed skin deep. plus, apparently she doesnt know how to choose a dress that is both gorgeous and able to walk in, because she kept on falling when she was walking. miss japan should have recieve all the votes. not only was she super kawaii, but she had a brain (hence the five languages that she could speak: spanish, portuguese, something else, english and japanese) w00t wow something that maybe the other candidate lacked. i hated the way that puerto rico had vague answers to her questions. i say retrial!

Has Asia ever won miss universe? If not, hopefuly they will soon Smile

As a country, I don't know. But as a race, yes. Brook Lee (Miss USA at the time) won it in 1997. She's made up of Korean, Dutch, French, Portuguese, Chinese, and Hawaiian ancestries. There may be others, but I can't recall them off the top of my head at the moment.

Since 1952 Asian nationality Miss Universes:

59 - Japan
65 - Thailand
69 - Philippines
73- Philippines
88 - Thailand
94 - India
2000 - India


Most (11) came from South America Venezuela having the most. (4)
Next Europe (10) "Switzerland with 3", and North America (10)" Usa with (6)."
Then Australia and Puerto Rico both with (4)

I really wanted Japan to win, too because she knows four languages (she doesn't know portuguese) and she wants to become a reporter, unlike some other contestants who said that they wanted to become a famous actress. Then again, second place isn't that bad. Plus, she won best custome, which I personally think she deserves it. It was either her or that other women who wore a butterfly custome, which was really breath taking! In all honesty, I wouldn't have watched the show at all if it wasn't for the customes. I thought that was the BEST part out of the entire show.

Yep. I'm sick of all these damn south americans who have little to no personalities and are nothing more than products of cosmetic surgery. (yes, brazil is the plastic surgery capital of the world). They all lack substance. But of course, as long as their ribs are hanging out in a 2 piece bikini and can speak spanish that's considered "sexy" to the judges.

I've heard it's supposed to be "traditional". Traditional my ass. My eyes are still bleeding at this "thing".

A friend of mine, from Spain, said "Here we see what Miss Universe's contest cares about a woman... So sad."

I only say... hooray for male chauvinism and sexism.

At the moment I'm ashamed to be male...

Quite honestly, IMO, Suzuki Anne, or Kuriyama Chiaki, or Ueto Aya would beat all those chicks with ease.

Puerto Rico isn't south america. I thought that both girls were beautiful but in the end it came to the contestants answers. I’m really proud of Zuleyka and her final answer was just excellent.

Although I absolutely loved Japan’s national costume – she looked sort of skanky.
