Well, everybody knows that I rooted to our very own Venus Raj of the Philippines and continued supporting her all throughout the pageant so I came by to notice that the results may sound unfair to some of the candidates that for me may seem more deserving to be at least on the semi-final round. Never get me wrong, but at first I am happy that most of them failed to the first cut because that gave Venus a big chance to shine in the finals. But somehow, it was disappointing not seeing them after their performance all throughout the pageant.
Like Venus Raj, Rima also defended herself with these issues and proved that she deserves to be Miss USA, although not as close of losing the crown like Miss Philippines. She then represented USA in the pageant. But, as the contest transpires, Rima started to get away of her own spark. It started when she, along with some other contestants, posed half-nude in the official glamor shot. Rima made noise but not as loud as before. Also, her get-to-know video is not that impressive as she prompted her close-to-whisper voice and have to sing a lion sound. A little not impressive again.
During the preliminaries, she was energetic in the presentation portion and stunning in swimsuit. Her red evening gown failed to save her, I think. At the semi-final announcement, I was still confident that USA will be called in the top 15 just like every other Miss USA did in the previous years.
"And the final spot, are you ready, in the top 15 is for the Philippines," the host exclaimed.Miss USA, just a few steps away from Venus, seems disappointed. Rima never clapped right away after the announcement. But I know she carried on well, she is beautiful with that long straight hair as she performed with the girls before the swimsuit parade. She is the fourth Miss USA who failed to be in the finals (1976, 1999 and 2002).
Marelisa Gibson, Venezuela. After winning the crown as Miss Venezuela, the pressure is then on for Marelisa. Nevertheless, two consecutive wins for her country is not an easy task to bare with. Yet, no one underestimates the capability of Venezuela to have a three time win with her. The world knows how serious they are in producing the best beauty queens in the universe.With a beautiful face, who can never adore Marelisa. But, photos of her before joining the local pageant eventually became viral in social networking sites. A lot of enhancements, they say, had been made to sculpt that beautiful face. Well, with her get-to-know video, I can say this girl is real inside. She answered very well and very spontaneous, jolly and fun to watch. Just set aside those physical attribute issues and she is definitely it.
I do not love Marelisa but I do not hate her either. Well, thanks for the Venezuela sash, I constantly notice her in every pre-pageant activities' updates on the net. She did very well in the preliminaries. Personally, I was mesmerized by her beautiful smile that made me decide, she will be on the top 15. Well, all balls have turned for Venezuela, I guess having two wins back-to-back shall gave them a break for 2010. Miss Gibson is now added to the list of Venezuelans who broke their pedestal in the pageant, same in 2004 and 2006.
"And the final spot, are you ready, in the top 15 is for the Philippines," the host exclaimed.Miss Venezuela, at the centerstage, also can't hide her disappointment inspite of her smile. Marelisa was still composed and smiling onstage but her smile reflects how she was defeated. Could it be her sash Venezuela saying that her country needs a rest after winning back-to-back?
