The Miss Universe contest name remains silly I think. Miss World and Miss Earth contests already exist, so I guess the only other alternate name for Miss Universe would be Miss Planet. That's 64 years now and every Miss Universe winner has been from Earth. Many countries were also not represented, only 80 contestants this year.

Yeah, I've seen it a couple of times around the Fort. The guys are generally Eurasian or more Spanish looking, taller, and seem like they have some cash.

Anyhow, yeah, you do see it, but it's a lot rarer than the opposite. That seems to hold true for most Asian countries, though.

Backpacker areas usually have crews of poor local guys running game.

I had a bunch of buddies in Cambodia that were going through white women on Pub Street like Khmer wrecking balls.

Pageants seem really popular in the Philippines from what I saw. They have local ones all over and I guess they are a big deal for the residents of each barangay.

Yeah, it is all the rave here. I've always though that there has to be a way to actively travel around the country trolling these pageant events.

easy.

I much prefer Miss Philippines and am glad it was only a mistake.

That said, how dumb and careless do you have to be to confuse these two? It's not like two similar countries (Austria and Australia or India and Indonesia), which would be somewhat excusable.

I'm glad this program still shows nice looking women.
Maybe in a few years the Fat Acceptance will force whales and trannies to win.

They probably are but from what I've noticed within the small percentage of Asian Dads/White Moms is that the Filipino guys clean it up the most in that category. I'm guessing due to both the darker skin and the Philippines being a relatively masculine, patriarchal country. I met one such couple last year and the dad was a military guy who was short but jacked and ran marathons (his wife was pretty hot too).

It's good for us, because it'll increase this dream most Filipina have, to have a (Eurasian) child with a Westerner..

Expect even more Filipina cuties to ask you for a DNA donation

This is just like Hollywood where a large amount of "black" female actresses are mulattos.

Isn't he on the show family feud as well? His only job is to read from cards just like this. He's done this for years. How could he fuck up so badly? There goes his career.

Royal fuck up or conspiracy?

I read about this on the BBC website this morning, favourite quote from that article: "And the winner is- Miss-Information."

I actually thought the same ... Considering that this show (miss Universe) is, if I am not mistaken, the former property of D. Trump - and was taken from him because of a row over "latino" migrants...

Could it be that the Black moustachioed speaker tried to push (favor) a "latina" winner (either unconsciously or willingly), as a way to try and "annoy" mister Trump?

Like, the moustachioed speaker could have thought: I will try to name the Colombian girl as the winner, and it'll be too late after that to correct the mistake, my decision will stand...? His intent being either to upset D. Trump (who actually certainly does not care about this event anymore, but, who knows), or to pay his debt to the Colombian girl (did she sleep with him prior to the ceremony?)

[christpuncher]

^ lol

If anything, the conspiracy would be either:

1 - Trump paid off Harvey to bomb and all the headlines would show the train wreck of a pagaent it has become. Trump could capitalise on this.

Or

2 - People against trump arranged to throw the pageant just to get some extra talking points where they can refer back to trump's previous involvement. A venture that is arguably tacky and not very presidential.

But I think it was a genuine mistake. Not that the "runner up" notation is THAT confusing, but it is decidedly less clear than 1st, 2nd, 3rd. 2nd runner up is 3rd and 1st runner up is 2nd? That's just stupid.
Keep in mind he is the host of family feud, and is probably very used to the numbers 1st, 2nd and 3rd actually meaning 1st, 2nd, and 3rd on his cue cards...

I liked Miss Philippines the best, but I feel really bad for the Colombian. She must be crushed now.

I never knew Steve Harvey was such a big WWE fan. Was expecting Miss Philippines to come up from behind with a chair shot on Miss Colombia, while Harvey and her celebrate over her body to end the show.

[Gmac]

Look at it this way - no one was paying attention to the Miss Universe pageant until this snafu. Why wouldn't they bring him back a few weeks before the event next year - apologize, make a joke, and help drum up viewership. Sounds like an honest mistake to me, no conspiracy.

[Dr. Howard]

Put those pictures of Ms. Philippines on threads where people don't want to go to there because "they don't like asian girls"

They've got all kinds there, from "Asian" looking girls, to girls that look like they are white half breeds to southerners that looks like petite spanish girls that have a korean grandfather.

And of course the Donald made sure to give them shit about fucking up the contest https://twitter.com/realDonaldTrump/stat...4250985472

Honest mistake. Probably. But definitely stupid mistake.

However, he could have handled it better. Sure, he did fess up at the end before walking off stage. But, would have been better for him to explain exactly what happened at the beginning, and maybe even go up to that hot Colombiana and look her in the face and apologize.

And, I WB any of the contestants. Any.

I smell a lawsuit coming in 3...2....1....

[kinjutsu]

As of this morning, Miss Germany is say no one voted for the Miss Philippines and that Miss Colombia should've won.


Miss Germany Makes Stunning Revelation About What the Other Contestants Thought of Miss Philippines Winning

Quote:

“I really couldn’t believe it, I was so upset. For me (she was robbed) as the real winner,” she said.

“I was very happy for Miss Colombia because she really deserved it. I’m really not happy with the result and so are the other girls, I’m sorry to say it.”

Possibly some female on female hate?

Quote:

She explained that–supposedly–none of the other contestants thought Wurtzbach should have won.

“Because no one of us voted for Philippines,” she said.

I'm not sure how the voting goes but if what she's saying is true that would be terrible.
Is the voting peer based? If so whats the point of parading around on stage in front of judges, media etc...

It looks like they had online voting but that so easily abused, i highly doubt that the entire pageant was decided by online votes.

[LeeEnfield303]

Hanging chads?

[GlobalMan]

Miss Germany's comments aren't really a useful datapoint. She would have no idea who "should have won". Who the contestants themselves voted for doesn't reflect what the outcome will be. She's talking about who the other girls wanted to win. There's no reason to think there's a conspiracy at the moment.

A lawsuit for what? Stupidly saying the wrong country's name isn't tortious. It's just a big screw up and really embarrassing. These Miss Universe/Miss America/Miss Zanesville pagents just rub me the wrong way. The whole thing just seems like a big scam to me. I could spend a month in a good part of Southern California and easily see and meet literally hundreds of native born American girls who blow the Miss America from some shithole landlocked state out of the water. This is no exaggeration. How the hell does that warrant the girl who represented the United States being the best this country can produce? It doesn't. This pretty much goes for all countries. Give me a month in Milan and I could meet countless girls who could match Miss Italy. When I was a kid, I remember my mom used to be really offended that Miss America pagents and stuff like that even existed and I could never understand why. I think now I know.

Are you new? There has to be a "reason" for a lawsuit?


.....I thought about this issue in a somewhat-engaged manner for about 2 minutes...then remembered....its a fucking beauty pageant.
