Subject: Whaaaaaaat!?!?!?!? Author: Christi [ Next Thread | Previous Thread | Next Message | Previous Message ] Date Posted: 20:08:59 05/16/11 Mon http://www.andreasbernauer.com/uncategorized/2011-miss-world-canada-pageant-day-1/ The girls are short, some are definitely not thin enough, a couple are bordering homely. Whoever took these girls money and gave them a glimmer of hope that they could be Miss World Canada completely stole from them. I'm sorry about half those girls should not be in a national pageant they do not stand a chance of winning at all. Out of 23 girls there isnt 1 worthy of any international stage, most are just stage fillers and extra income for MWC. sheesh. Where are pictures of Denise, the outgoing titleholder? There are pictures of the director but not the reigning queen???? And did someone grease the railing? That is the most retarded pose I have ever seen! I cant believe ppl bitch year after year about Denis Davilas girls being predominantly eastern European and mostly from the East, yet the MWC girls are almost exclusively Asian/South Asian and from BC and no one says a thing!! At least Denis gets 90% quality girls with only a handful of average girls who are wasting thier time and money, the majority of MUC girls are tall, thin and traffic stoppingly gorgeous! I may sound 'mean' but I tell the truth that no one else seems willing to :P [ Next Thread | Previous Thread | Next Message | Previous Message ]

Subject Author Date hahah Ok I am sorry but that pose Katherine is doing lol what is that... it makes no sense what so ever. And where is Denise?? Last years winner why is there not a pic of her.. hello she placed Top 20 ? Hmmm The focus should always be Last years winner and the girls. And well as for the girls this year 1) only 23??? WOW what a decrease in girls since they took it over. 2) None are really MW standard not at all I mean these girls just don`t have it. And the website really sucks it crashed my computer. The bios don't even list where the girls come from or their age or height.... Really not impressive yet but its early maybe there is a diamond in the rough....? and Maybe the show is be amazing... crossing my fingers its such a ashame that such a large franchise is wasted.... This is MISS WORLD !!!!! This pageant should have 60 Beautiful girls in it from across Canada. Well thats my opinion. (NT) Michelle 22:48:42 05/17/11 Tue I think Riza Santos (Miss Earth Canada 2006) should win this. (NT) Canadian Fan 23:22:14 05/17/11 Tue Yes I think Riza is one of the top contenders (NT) Patricia 21:27:59 05/18/11 Wed Does MWC no longer take professional, full hair-and-makeup shots? These are so amateur. And, on a side note, do any Cdn pageants post their judges? Having dealt with some pretty suspect judges in the past (for example, the coworkers of pageant coordinators), I'd love to see this push for more transparency. (NT) East Coast Pageanteer 10:26:19 05/19/11 Thu MTC-W Posts their Judges on the website last years are still up. There is a entire section and they are in the program book and they are all introduced during the show. Ya where is the photoshoot? Amateur that is a very good word to use for them. For me MWC is just not interesting you can not even really get a good look at the girls the photos are so bad. I am still wondering where they are from.. there are just no details. And these little details are real simple to do an would make the public happy. Hmmm does the organization actually care? Is it a priority or is it just a quick cash grab? (NT) Michelle 13:17:27 05/19/11 Thu In all fairness, I think both pageants allow girls that clearly don't stand a chance nor fit into the pageant world. However, MUC website is way better that MWC. Personally, Im fed up of MUC always being from Ontario especially from GTA...I would love to see a winner outside of Ontario for once. As for MWC, time will tell, maybe there will be some major upgrades in the future. I do personally miss MWC under the management of Connie Fitzpatrick, Jimmy Steele and that crew...the first years were amazing (2003-2007), then it disappointed me in 2008 and 2009. (NT) JF 17:35:37 05/19/11 Thu What was disappointing about 2008 and 2009? (NT) -- Zinger, 01:59:05 05/20/11 Fri The quality of the winners were disappointing for me in 2008 and 2009. After years of selecting gorgeous gals, we ended up with these 2 winners in 2008 and 2009, clearly not at the same level of the previous winners. Thats only my personal opinion though (NT) -- JF, 11:57:57 05/20/11 Fri Not up to standard? I think you should preface this by saying that this is just your opinion - and and UNFORMED one at that.....Whilst the 2008 gil did not place -neither did 2007 or 2004 . The 2009 winner (who apparently dissapoint you) (Lena Ma) placed SECOND HIGHEST at MW in Canadian Pagenant history - So if your OPINION is that the winners were not beautiful, then that is not the fault of the organizer, it was the judges choice, and in 2008 Jimmy Steel and Connie Fitzpatrick WERE judges as, and Connie was a judge in 2009 (which is unethical in my opinion) - And as far as I know in 2003 (the first for that org) MWC under that management - only had 6 contestants (the winner eventually went on the place 1st RU at MW) (NT) -- Zinger, 13:04:34 05/20/11 Fri I clearly stated that this was my opinion from the very beginning. Yes, it was maybe the judges fault, but still, they got accepted as candidates by the organization. Also, I didn't imply that all the girls placed, I just said that I found them to be all gorgeous from 2003-2007, and then not up to international standards (again, thats my personal opinion). (NT) -- JF, 17:51:23 05/21/11 Sat OK - well then your statement is hogwash - with no basis whatesover. Because if we go by the MW standard - since Lena Ma (2009) placed higher than all of them except 2003. (NT) -- Zinger, 12:39:04 05/22/11 Sun As far as I understand, Connie was still the CEO up until 2009. I was at the show, and saw her speak on stage, and put the sash on Lena Ma (NT) -- Zinger, 04:28:42 05/20/11 Fri To also be fair, it's incredibly expensive for girls to compete if they don't live near the pageant location - travel alone can be pricey. Imagine the cost of travelling from the Maritimes to B.C. for a 'national' pageant! And in places like NB and PEI, there isn't much 'push' for pageantry. NL and NS are far better; NL has an incredible pageant community. But that - and the smaller populations - are why you don't see as many girls from those areas. I can't speak for out west. (NT) -- East Coast Pageanteer, 12:01:16 05/20/11 Fri I just want to make a quick point regarding JF's comment about MUC winners coming from the GTA - When you have a city the size of Toronto, w/ millions of people, the chances of someone winning from there is considerably higher than a girl from somewhere else. Heck, 40% of Canada's population is found in Southern Ontario alone. Sorry, but I doubt its purposely chosen that way, but just the result of basic statistics. (NT) -- Karen, 15:01:37 05/27/11 Fri Pageant was last night, does anyone have any clue of the outcome?????? No press and no updates on thier site yet. (NT) Christi 11:56:34 05/20/11 Fri There's a pic on the website now that I think is Riza, but no name. And no coverage anywhere. Maybe they forgot to invite the press to their event? (NT) -- ECP, 12:32:47 05/20/11 Fri Congratulations to Riza Santos, newly crowned Miss World Canada 2011 from Calgary, AB. (NT) AmeriCan Fan 12:22:16 05/20/11 Fri SURPRISE! (NT) -- Christi, 16:00:24 05/20/11 Fri No surprise there. She's a pro. (NT) -- Mike, 21:07:12 05/20/11 Fri u missed the sarcasm mike (NT) -- christi, 01:21:07 05/21/11 Sat Anyone have photos from the pageant they can post??? (NT) Karen 15:07:43 05/24/11 Tue CLICK-IN for pictures and videos -- Tommy, 20:08:05 05/30/11 Mon I think the Miss world canada's sash is hideous (NT) -- Patricia, 04:07:12 06/03/11 Fri I think it's better than last year's black sash with white lettering.
