Miss Universe Pagent 2015

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 5^th Miss Ukraine, Diana Harkusha

Diana is one of the youngest contestants. But, don’t let that fool you. The 20 year old has won many pageants including her state title, her county title, and Miss International. However, all of that did get her the win in this year’s Miss Universe. She made it to the top 5 and placed which is pretty good considering the Ukraine has never won Miss Universe so her making it to the top 5; I’m sure made her country proud! I’m sure this isn’t the last we will be seeing of Diana. The 20 year old is working as a model all over the world and is also attending law school in her country. Watch out world! And congratulations, Diana

 

 Coming in 4^th Miss Jamaica, Kaci Fennel

                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 3^rd 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 2^nd 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 4^th 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 3^rd instead of 4^th. 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
