Subject: It does appear that things have changed since Vanessa won. Not to take anything away from Natalie, but that year, many of us considered Gretal Montgomery to be way more beautiful than Natalie. The next year, Alice was a foregone conclusion. Maybe she was handpicked, but even a truly fair panel of judges would have selected her. Then came Inga - that was shocking to say the least. I can't imagine anyone fixing the pageant for her and yet I can't imagine her winning fairly. This year, I don't know what to think. Samantha is a decent choice, and I'll leave it at that.

In reply to: Insider 's message, "The problem here is not that beautiful girls aren't winning, all the prepped winners were great! It is the fact that a beautiful, talented, standout girl from another part of the country has NO CHANCE to win. If BOC hasn't had their eye on you and prepared you, you have NO chance. They won't take the risk. That's what happened with Vanessa in 2004, the judges saw something in her and she was gorgeous, but didn't perform to BOC standards. Ever since, they want to be 100% confident the right girl is chosen, so they are doing it themselves. And yes it's working but it's not fair and its wasting alot of people's time and money." on 13:38:34 04/29/08 Tue

Brent, although most knew Natalie was strong, Gretal had a warmth about her that I believe *real* judges would have chosen. Although Natalie would do better on an internationally level, Gretal would have made a genuine better MUC. But we are all forgetting what the pageant is about, looks... who cares if the woman is sweet and kind on the inside.. obviously BOC doesn't, they want a winner who is marketable and $$$. Alice was handpicked too.. she had a ton of modeling potential.. I personally don't think she was that outstanding, most can't see beyond her fashion model potential, there really isn't much else there. Inga no idea, I think she resembled Natalie so they were banking on that fact.. and Samantha she is $$... Maybe they are prepping her for the Adult Film industry.. cause that's the look she has. (NT)Insider- It's all about $$14:31:24 04/29/08 Tue
