Those were the days long before the internet, cell phones, spectacular gowns, etc. Was it the coaches back then, or was it that the other states just didn't measure up? I can understand if Texas was winning back to back now, but something happen in the 90's and every since then, Texas has not won back to back yet, although Texas has a 98% chance of being called each year.

So I guess the questions is, what was going on back then.

Now here's an odd one. Hoang Khanh Ngoc is the favorite to win the Miss Vietnam-Universe 2008 crown on May 31. Just one small problem: she already competed in a Miss Universe competition, four years ago (2004 in Ecuador)!

http://mobi.vietbao.vn/Van-hoa/Hoang-Khanh-Ngoc-bat-ngo-du-thi-Hoa-hau-hoan-vu-Viet-Nam/30232629/108/

Huang can be seen in Global Beauties' coverage of the current Miss Vietnam event. She is contestant #28, the tallest (1.80m) and most beautiful in the bunch, so there's a good chance that she'll win.

And how will the Trump organization deal with this? If Hoang wins and has to resign a day or two later, it will make news. So perhaps her "win" is being orchestrated to gain publicity for Vietnam and the Miss Universe event?

Or maybe the rules will be changed and ladies will be allowed to represent their country in Miss Universe more than once? This may be interesting.

Hello, I am selling some of my pageant attire, and am starting with my swimsuits. I have 5 of them available. They are all one piece suits. PLEASE EMAIL ME FOR PICTURES.

Fuchsia, labeled size 8, but fits very small. When i wore it, I was about a small size 2 and it fit me perfectly. Has a low V-cut down the back, with a key hole in the front and is cut sharply to the shoulders. This suit looks AMAZING on stage. On the inside of the suit, it has some residue from glue during competition, but is no way visible from the outside of the suit. I was complimented after the pageant about this suit and this exact suit was worn by a state winner the following year. Bought from The Crowning Touch. Retails for $85. Asking $40 OBO.

White suit, labeled size 8, but fits more of a size 4/6. Medium square cut in the front and square cut about half way down the back. BRAND NEW and still has the tags on it. It retails for $96. Has a thick lining, so you can't see through it. Also has built in padding. Asking $40 OBO.

Green suit, labeled size 8 but fits like a 6. Bought from a pageant shop, but never worn. Has a very low V-cut in the back and front. Asking $30 OBO.

Red suit, labeled size 8 but fits like a 4/6. Square cut in the front and circle cut down the back. Has a red threading design on it. Never been worn. Asking $25 OBO.

Bright pink, labeled 5/6, but fits more towards a 4. Has a high cut around the hips, with a circle cut out in the back. Never been worn. Asking $20 OBO.

**All these prices are negotiable. I will always be having a lot of my other clothes for sale soon. Please email and I will send you pictures. Thanks so much**

As soon as her picture was published, I knew that she would win. You don't just win a state like Texas, you have to earn it, and the fact that she kept coming back loosing to people she shouldn't have lost to. And yes I have to mention the fact that she was the second Black to win, which made me think of Chelsi. I didn't have to see anyone else. I picked her from day one.

She will be in the top 5 and will NOT be 4th runner up as in the last two Miss USA's

Subject: Miss Universe is less than a month away, and Vietnam is in the thick of preparations. Any idea why there is no Miss Vietnam yet? Seems like the Miss Universe Organization would help prepare the host country's delegate for the first ever event in Vietnam. Or will they pull a pro into the pageant...perhaps a Vietnamese American to represent the country. Doesn't look like the asian delegates will have much of a chance to repeat the 1988 asian dominance in Taiwan. The latin delegates and Crystle will be hard to beat out this year....

Does anyone Miss The pageants when Miss USA was in Feb and Universe in May? I see no reason not to go back to that. They can keep the Miss USA in Vegas,and Universe can go anywhere.


Each year it seems the pageants are later and later. Since Universe is so late in July, I doubt Teen will be televised in August. Frankly I think it's run it's course.

Personally I wouldn't mind seeing a Miss Teen USA actually win Miss USA and go on to win Miss Universe. I guess there really isn't a difference it all, but it would have been nice to have seen that happen. If only Brooke Lee Or Chelsi Smith were a former teen Miss USA, not just a contestant it would have taken place, but they never entered. Now that Miss Teen will probably air no more, we won't see it happen.

Just my observation

Oh and for the record, Had Shauna Gambill won Miss USA , she still would not have beaten Wendy.

Also since Texas is the first state to crown its 2009 representative, will Crystle be able to crown her sucessor at the event, before she goes to Miss Universe?
