The winner is......Miss Puerto Rico^^

1st runner up...Miss Japan

2nd runner up...Miss Switzerland

3rd runner up...Miss Paraguay

4th runner up...Miss USA

Congrats...But of course, Miss USA has to get something, just because it's hosted in LA. I think these were good choices, but Miss Trinidad/Tobago had the best face IMO. Once again, Miss Korea didn't even make it into the top 20, even though some guys say Korean women are the most beautiful in the world. That's funny!!! I couldn't say which country has the most beautiful women/men because there are ugly and good-looking poeple in every part of the world. But, that's just my opinion. Miss Japan also received the award for best national dress. She wore shorts and was carrying a sword. I saw waaaaay better.

You know it isn't a best looking girl competition. Often, the girls that are in the competition aren't all that good looking. Who was your Il-chon's favourite?

I am surprised a Japanese chic made it to #2.
Generally, Japanese women are short, have round faces and all the same short hairstyle.

Good for the Japanese woman finishing second. Stunningly beautiful.

Puerto Rico has had 5 winners in the 55 years that the pageant has gone on. I think I will vacation there someday. Wink

It's nothing but a highly political money making exercise, nothing to do with who's the best looking woman in the world, sorry to burst your bubble...

The contest would be slightly more accurate if it accounted for various looks within a single country. Instead of having only 1 woman represent a country, why not have 5 all of different heights and facial features? Make it a team contest. That would be far more interesting. "Here are the women of ...".

I thought Puerto Rico was the cutest from the moment I saw her. But Trinidad and Tobago had the best eyes outta all of em, hands down. but seriously.....Miss Switzerland and Miss Paraguay?? how the hell they get to the top 5?? I thought they were both alright but nothin special......well thats my two cents......
