Miss Venezuela Wins Miss Universe 2008
FIRST OFF can we just mention that FOUR Latinas made up the top FIVE finalists in the Miss Universe competition????
The big winner of the night is MISS VENEZUELA, Dayana Mendoza!!!!
LLLLAAATTTIIINNNOOOSSS!!!
2nd place - Colombia - Taliana Vargas
3rd place - Dominican Republic - Marianne Cruz González
4th place - Russia - Vera Krasova
5th place - Mexico - Elisa Najera
Yes, the last two standing were Venezuela and Colombia…very ironic, no?
Special mention…Miss El Salvador won Miss Congeniality. So not only are we hot but we’re also nice…when we want to be!

I don’t know about the other Latin countries and I don’t know how you see it, but there’s something horribly wrong and crazy in that country and it’s women.
USA Today:
In Venezuela, beauty isn’t necessarily something you’re born with — it’s a pursuit that has evolved into an industry, a national obsession, a staple of daily life.
Beauty salons and spas outnumber drugstores in Caracas telephone listings; women unabashedly apply full makeup in packed subways; teenagers are known to get breast jobs as their traditional “quinceanera” coming-of-age gift at age 15; Venezuelans consistently place among the finalists in the Miss Universe pageant.

I think its strange how Mexico got 5th and Russia got 4th, I think Miss Mexico was way better than 5th place, I thought that was very very suspicious…………..
anyways thats my humble opinion

I think that Colombia should have won 1st and Mexico should have won 2nd. Venezuela should have gotten 3rd. But, things don’t always turn out the way they need to.
