Miss Universe Pageant 2008

Dayana Mendoza was crowned Miss Universe, in a pageant dominated by Latin beauties. The 22-year-old girl was one of the favorites early on in the beauty contest, held in Vietnam.

Dayana proved her sense of humor while answering gracefully to her question regarding men having it easier in life. She replied,

“men think that the best way to reach a point is a straight line, but we women take some curves and detours to fix everything right”.

As history repeated itself, Miss USA fell during the night gown competition, just as it happened to last year’s contestant, Rachel Smith, during the 2007 Miss Universe pageant held in Mexico City.

Crystle Stewart quickly stood up, applauded along with the audience and with a smile, continued to model as it nothing had happened.

The Top 10 Contestants:

* Miss Venezuela Dayana Mendoza
* Miss USA Cyrstle Steward
* Miss Italy Claudia Ferraris
* Miss Russia Vera Krasova
* Miss Dominican Republic Marianne Cruz
* Miss Kosovo Zana Krasniqi
* Miss Australia Laura Dundovic
* Miss Spain Claudia Moro
* Miss Mexico Elisa Najera
* Miss Columbia Taliana Vargas

How bizarre is it, that for two years in a row our contestant falls down. I bet Donald Trump is involved somehow.

Heather Mills Has Crooked Boobs

Heather Mills walked the red carpet at the 2008 Miss USA Pageant — the crowd booed her. As if that wasn’t embarrassing enough — her boobs were crooked!

quote2.jpgThe former model’s overzealous attempt to lift and separate turned heads for all the wrong reasons over the weekend.

But the night went from bad to worse for the 39-year-old, was later booed and jeered as she was introduced on the judging panel.

Heather has previously claimed that public opinion of her in the US was “99 per cent positive,” and was left visibly upset when part of the audience at the Planet Hollywood hotel began to heckle as she took to the stage with hosts Donny and Marie Osmond.

The bad news for us? It looks like the rumors are true and Heather plans to move to the United States.

quote2.jpg“In England, people don’t like me. But I’m going to move to America, Los Angeles hopefully. I love England but everything that has happened makes me realize I’ll be better off in the States.”

Her appearance at the beauty pageant came just days after she launched an astonishing tirade against Sir Paul McCartney and “his three girlfriends” on GMTV, saying: “I wish all the girls the best of luck. Better them than me.”

I fear for this woman’s life.

Crystle Stewart Miss USA 2008

Crystle Stewart, a 26-year-old entrepreneur from Texas, was named Miss USA on Friday, beating 50 other beauty queens for the coveted crown.

quote2.jpgStewart, of Missouri City, Texas, runs a party-planning and motivational speaking company, as well as modeling professionally. She says she wants to dedicate her life to international philanthropy.

“I want to talk to people about how to set a goal and achieve it,” she told The Associated Press after the show. “Because I just achieved my goal.”

Stewart edged out first runner-up Leah Laviano of Mississippi and Tiffany Andrade of New Jersey.

Miss USA 2007 Rachel Smith relinquished the crown — and the posh New York apartment that comes with it — in a show aired live by NBC with hosts Donny and Marie Osmond from the Planet Hollywood Resort & Casino on the Las Vegas Strip. The network co-owns the parent Miss Universe Organization with Donald Trump.

Smith, a former Miss Tennessee USA, said she was headed to Hollywood.

Stewart was headed for the publicity circuit. She said she was eager to travel and spread her message of self-improvement to young women. She noted she was one of only a handful of black woman crowned Miss USA in the pageant’s 57-year history.

“I think the United States is coming together,” she said, citing the historic presidential candidacies of Barack Obama and Hillary Clinton. She declined to name her preference.

“I don’t know, we’ll see. Fundamentally, I’m a Democrat,” she said.

Contestants from all 50 states and the District of Columbia have been in Las Vegas for nearly three weeks, rehearsing and hyping the 57th annual pageant. After stints in Baltimore and Los Angeles, organizers billed the new venue as a city beloved by the event’s international audience.

The pageant tried to showed off its edge, featuring a grinding live rock performance by the band Finger Eleven, music from Rihanna, and contestants in barely there black bikinis and faux-fur coats.

Donny and Marie kept up a steady stream of sibling banter even while swiftly whittling the field.

Donny Osmond told the losers to “put on a poker face” as he sent them home.

“Or use Botox; then it won’t move,” Marie quipped.

Stewart will compete in the Miss Universe pageant in Vietnam in July. She also becomes a spokeswoman for breast and ovarian cancer awareness and other causes, while traveling to promote the organization.

Miss California Christina Silva Files Lawsuit

Christina Silva was crowned Miss California, only to be told three days later that it was a mistake.

Miss California Christina Silva Files Lawsuit - Photo - 1

Now Silva has filed a lawsuit against the pageant — claiming a long list of damages.

Don’t mess with a pissed-off beauty queen!

Miss California Christina Silva Files Lawsuit - Photo - 2

TMZ reports,

quote2.jpgIn the suit, filed today [see documents] in Los Angeles County Superior Court, Silva is seeking $500,000 in damages for “public humiliation, mental anguish and distress, lost opportunities, lost prizes and lost monies.”

Silva was crowned Miss California on November 25, 2007. Three days later, she says, she was called for a meeting at the pageant director’s home when they dropped a bomb — there had been a mistake, she was not the winner, and they yanked her crown!

Silva, who is of Ecuadoran and Mexican descent, claims that the pageant director never liked her and was looking for an “‘all-American girl’ to win, and not looking to crown another person of color.” For the record, the f*** up has been blamed on human error.

The reigning Miss California, Raquel Beezley, is one-quarter Filipino. She’s in Vegas now gearing up to compete for the title of Miss USA.

The pageant airs on NBC tomorrow night.

Miss England 2008 Semifinalists

Remember our post on Chloe Marshall, one of the first size 16 beauty queen contenders to make it to the finals of the Miss England Pageant?

Well, it looks like her competition is going to be tough!

On a more positive note, it looks like Chloe’s belly button has healed.

Yes, sometimes I can be — but aren’t we all at least little, every now and then?

What others said:

  • Celebslam says, “I like Miss Surrey’s chances. Competitive eating is a category, right?”

See! I’m not the only one!

Chloe Marshall Size 16 Beauty Queen

Chloe Marshall is the first size 16 beauty queen contender to make it to the finals of the Miss England contest.

Does her belly button look a little infected to you?

Chloe Marshall Size 16 Beauty Queen - Photo - 1

Here’s her shapely body in the official Miss England bikini – not forgetting her tiara of course – in her first bikini photoshoot since winning the Miss Surrey title. Lovely.

Daily Mail reports,

quote.jpgThe 17-year-old trainee beautician doesn’t look like your average beauty queen. And she couldn’t be happier about it.

She said: “It’s what I was born to do – posing for the camera. And as I keep saying, I love my body.

“People seem desperate to get me to say that I don’t, that deep down I’m not happy and would rather be thin, but the fact is I wouldn’t change myself at all.

“Do I have fat days? Of course, but what woman doesn’t!”

Chloe beat a host of slimmer hopefuls to be named Miss Surrey earlier this month, and hopes to win the national competition in July.

The Guildford-born plus-size model weighs 12st 8lb, is 5ft 10in tall and has a 38DD bust.

But although she is the average size for a woman, in the age which has seen the rise of the scarily thin size zero model, she certainly stands out.

Does the interviewer call her Chloe Mitchell? I’m going to have to go with a size 18W, there is no way she’s a size 16.

Former Miss Nevada USA Katie Rees Arrested- Photos

Former Miss Nevada USA Katie Rees Arrested- Photos

Looks like “The Donald” has got some more ‘splaining to do. His naughty pageant queen is at it again. Instead of taking part in lesbionic merriment, Rees has been arrested.

While in Las Vegas she was pulled over for routine traffic violation. It was around 3:00 am, which I believe constitutes the wee hours of the morning, when officers attempted to arrest Reese. The former Miss Nevada went “nuclear.” If she had played it cool the officers had simply planned to issue a citation. But no, she went nuts and became physically aggressive towards the officer.

Former Miss Nevada USA Katie Rees Arrested- Photos

This the crazy bitch that was stripped of her crown by Donald Trump for being slutty. Well, I guess we are all guilty of getting hammered and trying to lick our own breasts only to become frustrated and nibble our friends boobies instead. Of course I re-dug up those photos for you. Click “Continued” to see the NSFW photos.

Kirsten Haglund, the Newly Crowned Miss America is a Toothless Wonder

Kirsten Haglund, the Newly Crowned Miss America is a Toothless Wonder

The newly crowned Miss America, Kirsten Haglund, has a little secret….she’s missing a tooth!

She also talks about it openly in an interview with TLC, she calls it her skill. What is the world coming to?

Seen in the video below, at about 15 seconds in, Kirsten Haglund, formerly Miss Michigan, pops out her front tooth and reveals it’s fake!

Another funny thing to note, instead of sobbing in the corner or putting on that pageant-perfect fake smile, the outed Miss America contestants ferociously pigged out on donuts off the side of the stage while the pageant continued.

As they downed their frosting-covered carbohydrates, they watched as a toothless, once Anorexic girl from Michigan, in an ensemble reminiscent of the 80’s, is crowned Miss America 2008.

You can vote for your favorite contestant, HERE.

Jill Stevens Biography:

For the past 6 years, Jill Stevens has been serving in the US Military as a Combat Medic in the Utah National Guard, while earning her degree in Nursing at Southern Utah University. In November 2003, Jill was deployed to Afghanistan, returning home in April 2005. She has earned 5 medals for her outstanding service, and was the first female finisher of the inaugural Afghanistan Marathon, making a total of 12 marathons she has completed together with earning the highest Fitness award during Army Basic Training. In representing the Army National Guard, Sergeant Stevens recently addressed Generals from 40 different nations gathered at Hill Air Force Base.

In addition to her US Military service, Jill recently graduated Summa Cum Laude from the Nursing program at Southern Utah University on a four-year leadership scholarship. Last summer, she placed 3rd in the Cinco De Mayo Sailboat Regatta in Mexico, and this summer, Jill was chosen one of four women for the “Women of Strength” featured in Muscle and Fitness Hers Magazine September/October 2007 issue. Additionally, Jill has been a fitness instructor for Gold’s Gym for several years, as well as a bread baker for Great Harvest. Possibly one of the most unusual adventures for Jill though, has been her unexpected experience in becoming Miss Utah 2007, and looking forward to her national competition in the Miss America Pageant in January 2008.

Kumari Fulbright, Beauty Queen Mug Shot

Here’s the mug shot of beauty queen Kumari Fulbright that we reported on Tuesday.

Kumari Fulbright, Beauty Queen Mug Shot - PIC

Tyra Banks needs to teach this girl how to smile with her eyes, no? I’m guessing this wasn’t her best shot. I’m killing myself here.

Fulbright, a University of Arizona law school student and beauty queen, was indicted on charges that say she and three others held her former boyfriend captive for 10 hours while torturing and robbing him.

Dlisted reports,

quote4.jpgThank you to Kumari’s boyfriend, because without him we wouldn’t have gotten this amazing mug shot of 25-year-old Kumari. This mug shot has everything you could ever want. It looks like she’s crying from being scared, but I bet you bitch is having major withdrawals. The meth marks on her face are a lovely touch.

I’m also guessing she was topless and they threw a sheet over her. This mug shot is all sorts of great. Whatever she uses as her official pageant photo she should throw away and replace with this mug shot. This shit is true glamour.

Aren’t beauty queens just the best scandal makers ever?

Kumari Fulbright, Beauty Queen, Kidnapper

Kumari Fulbright, a University of Arizona law school student and beauty queen has been indicted on charges that say she and three others held her former boyfriend captive for 10 hours while torturing and robbing him.

Kumari Fulbright, Beauty Queen, Kidnapper Gun Photo

quote-pic Kumari Fulbright, a law clerk for U.S. District Court Judge Raner Collins, was indicted Dec. 18 on five felony charges – armed robbery, aggravated robbery, kidnapping and two counts of aggravated assault with a deadly weapon.

Fulbright, 25, was named Miss Pima County in 2005 and Miss Desert Sun in 2006 and ran for Miss Arizona those years.

According to court documents, Fulbright and three men used plastic cable ties and duct tape to tie up a 24-year-old man on Dec. 8 and held him captive at two residences, one on the North Side and the other in Midtown. The four suspects pointed pistols at the man, threatened his life and stole his wallet, cell phone, briefcase and between $500 and $600 in cash, court documents state.

“(Fulbright) specifically bit him several times while he was bound, stuck a butcher knife in his ear and said she was going to kill him, pointed a pistol at him,” the documents state.

The victim was able to grab Fulbright’s gun after eight to 10 hours, the gun went off and he ran out of the house screaming for help.

Police said the man’s injuries were consistent with his story.

These beauty contestant bitches are crazy. She could tie me up any day, though.
