Hi, I hope everyone had a fabulous weekend! Welcome to my third
blog post and thanks for reading. Feel free to share or leave questions or
comments below. Enjoy!
Today’s topic, if you couldn’t tell by the name, I’m going
to be covering my opinion on the top 5 contestants from the Miss Universe pageant
and what I think the outcome should’ve been. First, I would like to say that
just because I’m from the USA doesn’t mean I’m bias in anyway. And I’m also a pageant
junkie! Here we go! (:
Coming in 5th Miss Ukraine, Diana Harkusha
First of all, she is absolutely beautiful. Love the short
hair on her. Besides being beautiful, she also has the brains to match. She’s
just simple girl who loves her family and also enjoys her family activities. Her
mom is a baker, so she loves food which is so ironic considering how fit she
is. But I guess you have to be fit to be a model and to compete. Jamaica is another
country who has never won the Miss Universe title. Kaci had a beautifully fit
red gown on during evening gown which I think went really well with her skin
tone and hair. She was the only girl who didn’t “fit” the typical pageant look
which she stated in an interview that you don’t always have to have the
physical appearance, it matters what’s in the inside. I will always respect her
for that. Many girls always try and fit this specific image not only for pageants
but just in everyday life. And she really made it known that all you have to do
is be yourself in life and that can get you far. I’m looking forward to seeing
the exciting things she’s going to be doing in the upcoming years of her life. Congratulations,
Kaci
Coming in 3rd Miss Netherlands, Yasmin Verheijen
Another young soul being an example for young people. Yasmin
wore a dark yellow colored dress for her evening gown that really fit darker
skin tone and the jewelry to match it was absolutely stunning. She definitely stood
her own and surprised everyone when she was announced third runner up. She’s
another one, who isn’t all about looks and really means it. Girls from her
country are so underestimated but she’s proving everyone wrong and is being a
great role model for her country. Netherlands has won one Miss Universe title. Congratulations,
Yasmin and I look forward to seeing what you do both in your country and internationally.
Coming in 2nd Miss USA, Nia Sanchez
Nia isn’t the typical pageant girl. She doesn’t hold
multiple titles like most women do. She first entered the pageant world in
2009. Since then, she’s competed both internationally and domestically. She is
a 4th degree black belt in Tae Kwon Do which also matches her competitiveness.
She is a fierce competitor. During competition, she was one of the three finalists
whom wore a red dress and it fit her beautifully. I love how full her hair is. I
am positive this won’t be the last time we see Nia. She has an amazing life ahead
of her. USA has the most title holders for Miss Universe.
Miss Universe 2015, Paulina Vega
Paulina is from Columbia and started off at the age of 8
years old as a model. Her days as a pageant girls started off young watching
her grandma win Miss Columbia 1953. From there, it triggered her pageant career.
She’s studying business admin and has big shoes to fill. Most of her family has
prestige careers such as cardiologist and singers in her country. I’m excited
to see what her year as Miss Universe is going to be like. Congratulations, Paulina!
Now that you know the top 5 and a little about them, now it’s
time for me to share what I think. I think Miss Jamaica definitely deserved 3rd
instead of 4th. She had better qualities and she was more equipped
verses Miss Netherlands. I do think Miss USA should’ve won. This is not me
being bias because she’s Miss USA or because she was the former Miss Nevada USA
or even because her hometown is Las Vegas and that’s where I live or even because
she’s actually my friend, I just play by the rules. She was the best candidate
to represent the universe. Not only did she give better answers in the question
round, she was also more confident and knew what she was talking about. As for
the other top 5, they didn’t know what they were talking about when it came to
the question round. For the Miss Universe organization, I think they should ask
the questions in the contestants’ native language. Part of the reason everyone
gave really shitty answers besides Miss USA was because she understands English
and its entirety. Miss Netherlands had to ask for the question to be repeated
twice and she still didn’t get the question based on the answer she gave. Now,
they did have interpreters but, the finalist probably felt dumb using them
which I know is essentially there fault but they weren’t giving a welcoming to the interpreter he was kind of just
standing there. Overall, I thought it was a pretty fair show until the winner
was crowned. I do not hate Miss Columbia but I don’t think she was best fit for
Miss Universe.
Well, that’s all for me. What do you think? Like, share and
comment. Love, peace, and chicken grease! <3
