Subject: Miss Universe Preliminary Author: No name [ Next Thread | Previous Thread | Next Message | Previous Message ] Date Posted: 06:26:52 11/15/24 Fri Author Host/IP: syn-071-070-078-105.res.spectrum.com/71.70.78.105 https://www.youtube.com/live/6Wr25s8aVYE?si=nFK-UuKpRDbvvpWQ Check out this disaster. If you didn't think Miss Universe could get any worse watch this 3.5 hour disaster. Cliffs Preliminary each judge spent 3 minutes individually with each delegate for interview. Only national costume and swimsuit were scored preliminary night. Evening gown was initially not to be included in preliminary but the girls and queens (men in drag) in Mexico revolted and yesterday it was announced Gown would be back. By this point,the show was 3 hours in and many girls did not show up on stage. The actual gown presentation itself was only 12 minutes with groups of 6. This was not scored. Very important:The top 30 we will see Saturday are only based on interview,costume,and swimsuit with interview I think 50 percent or more of final score. The top 30 will compete in swimsuit and represent a top 4 from each region. So girls that have no business in the top 0 will get called.top 12 will compete in gown then a final 5. Rbonny Gabriel never needs to host again. She sounded like Paris Hilton and Kim Kardashian circa 2000s. Europe has some beautiful girls this year but they are completely invisible compared to the latins. Speaking of the Latins, Cuba is beautiful. However, I do not support white facing cubans. I am positive she loves in Miami. Poor South Africa withdrew last night. Its really shameful as Nigeria, who is stunning but is completely lost in the field, would have had better prep styling and confidence under the South African banner. South Africa will regret this decision. USA is an absolute embarrassment. I couldn't think USA prelim performance could get worse than some of the bombs of years past but this girl just ain't it. Asia is another bomb. I will say Cambodia is the top in this group, she was confident all around. Its certain, unfortunately, that Filipinas and Thailand will take 2 Asian spots. Fiji is absolutely adorable. I will actually say all of the new islands competing are all adorable but there is no change in hell any are getting the call. Reality tells me this is another latina crown to loose. While Mexico is host, their girl didn't do it for me. Yet, politics and a Mexican owner will ensure a victory. Anne has ruined Miss Universe. But I can't say this beautiful confident, as Paula and that lesbian Anne who Paula professed her love for a year ago, had already ruined Miss Universe. This is the first miss universe I have had zero interest in. Its basically a clown show and if you watch the 60 minutes of swimsuit, you will see just that. You have girls looking like this is miss grand international making the most awkward poses while rbonny and shaynece are screaming in the background. I am embarrassed 😳 [ Next Thread | Previous Thread | Next Message | Previous Message ]

Subject Author Date It was truly a train wreck. I could not believe the evening gown debacle. This is so unfair to pick semifinalists from regions. There are some entire continents that deserve to make the cut and some continents that don't have a contender in the bunch, but will still be up there. Plus, National Costume is being judged for placement? So of those costumes you have to look ugly to make them effective. Stupid idea. Plus, all that yelling and screaming.....my nerves were shot. There were some beauties last night, then there were the.....others. It's a shame that they are having to compete in an apopoplectic version of a once beautiful pageant. (NT) No name (syn-065-188-072-097.wifi.spectrum.com/65.188.72.97) 09:17:33 11/15/24 Fri The worst ever. The worst. It reminded me of the 100th anniversary of Miss America where the girls wore their evening gowns on stage but there was no evening gown competition. (NT) No name (NoHost/107.115.163.12) 09:56:55 11/15/24 Fri R'Bonney and Sheynnis were mispronouncing the names of the countries all night. Eritrea (Er-i-tray-a) was pronounced (U-ree-trah) all night. First time participant nation, I doubt they will compete again after that travesty. It sounded like "Urethra". The male host pronounced ZAM-bia as zam-Bee-a. It's disrespectful. (NT) No name (syn-071-073-192-044.res.spectrum.com/71.73.192.44) 16:25:54 11/15/24 Fri Also the 'United "Arabic" Emirates'. Zambia had to walk through the confetti left behind by Vietnam during the costume show. Zambia wore a floor-length costume that gathered the confetti as she walked. She was being judged this way. (NT) -- No name, 16:38:21 11/15/24 Fri (syn-071-073-192-044.res.spectrum.com/71.73.192.44) 126 countries was nothing more than a money grab. 90 percent of new and returning countries won't even be seen tomorrow night. Apparently introductions is only the country name. Calling top 30 will drag for a good 2 hours and any non latin America country will be eliminated at top 30. Filipinas and Thailand will make it to 12. (NT) -- No name, 16:48:43 11/15/24 Fri (mobile-166-199-148-052.mycingular.net/166.199.148.52) That male host last night should have been named Colby Kraft. He was that cheesy. Also, that R'bonny chick......speaking off the cuff is not her strong suit. But apparently tmyelling as if the venue was on fire seems to come quite easy for her.
