It’s always great to see an Asian girl winning a major international beauty pageant – and
Miss China is certainly pretty enough – but you do have to wonder. My personal favourite Asian contestant this year was
Miss Korea – what a cutie! I also found
Miss Nepal quite sexy and exotic, even though she doesn’t look very ‘Asian’ (in the sense that we normally use the word here). My favourite non-Asian contestant was
Miss Honduras, who actually does look part Asian (as Latinos often do). It’s also interesting that
Canada chose a part Asian girl to represent them – I’d like to see more of this from immigration countries like the US and Australia, rather than the very caucasian looking girls we always pick (although
Miss Australia did come in third – it seems we’re doomed to bronze and silver this year!). Anyway, who are you favourite
contestants this year?
