These beauty queens will come to Vietnam to participate in the 4th International Travel Exhibition – HCM City 2008 (ITE – HCMC 2008) from September 12-14 at the Phu Tho Sports House in HCM City and will also participate in other activities to advertise ecological tourism, call for environmental protection and do charity activities.

One of the most outstanding activities of these beauty queens was calling for Vietnamese people to wear helmets by wearing helmets and riding on motorbikes on HCM City’s streets.



La Quoc Khanh, Deputy Director of the HCM City Department of Culture, Sports and Tourism, vice chief of the organising board of ITE – HCM City 2008, said this year’s exhibition is the largest since 2005.

Date Posted: 13:16:11 08/25/08 Mon



With 26 contestants from all across Canada, Meghan Price of Vernon, BC won top honours at the first annual Top Teen of Canada event on Saturday, August 23 at the Chief Sepass Theatre in Langley, BC. There were representatives from Alberta, Quebec, New Brunswick, Nova Scotia, Ontario, and Saskatchewan present, but it was BC’s very own Meghan Price who took home the gold.

The event included both male and female participants with a focus on community involvement, fundraising, and charity. The first of its kind ever in Canada, the event was a week-long affair that included self-defence workshops, public speaking classes, gruelling rehearsals, a visit to Hell’s Gate, BC and a dinner cruise around the harbour of Vancouver. Perhaps what was most valuable for the youth that attended was the relationships and friendships formed during this time together. It was a chance for youth from across the nation to meet one another and share ideas on how they can better the world.

The Top Teen of Canada event held two nights open to the public. Thursday, August 21 saw the teens battle it out in the Speech Presentation and Personal Showcase competitions. The variety of presentations included painting, dancing, photography, fashion design, singing, playing a musical instrument, tai chi, and reciting poetry. Saturday’s Grand Finale featured a rousing opening number and of course, the Evening Wear and Regional Costume competitions. Filmed for television, the show brought the audience to its feet, applauding the young men and women, who collectively managed to raise over $20,000 through the Top Teen of Canada event for Cops for Cancer for the Canadian Cancer Society.

Seventeen year-old Price, who lost her best friend to cancer a year before, is now about to enter her first year at UBC Okanagan, and has already volunteered her time with Habitat for Humanity, with whom she went to Guatamala to help build a house for those in need. This fits with her platform of affordable housing. “I want to raise awareness for a need for affordable housing,” she told her local paper, The Vernon Star. “Canada’s a wealthy nation but there is still a lot of non-affordable housing in this country, and a lot of people are struggling.” Out of $5,000 in cash scholarship prizes distributed among the contestants, Price walked away with $3,000 to be applied to the school of her choosing.

Applications are already being accepted and processed for next year’s event. For more information on how to apply, visit www.topteenofcanada.com

I feel so bad for many of the Miss BC World candidates. After the pageant, many of them were crying and blaming the judging panel for their loss. I feel bad for these girls, that they have such poor sportsmanship and i don't think they realize how bad this looked. I walked backstage after the event and was shocked to see this. It made me support the judges decision even more after seeing Sun Bains throw a hissy fit and start verbally attacking the pageant coordinators with quite fowl language..

I hope these girls can realize that this pageant isnt the end of their lives...

Just for fun I thought that I would post all of our beauty queens since 2000, just so we can compare the diversity of our country. I think each of these ladies has something different about them, that made them special.

Since there has been much debate about all the reps looking similar, that maybe true in the way styling is set, but in terms of individual beauty, our reps have a certain uniqueness that differentiates them from one another...

After a grueling weekend of rehearsals and training, Vancouver's Hasti Vahidi was crowned Miss BC World 2008 in a Fort Langley pageant that raised over $1,300 for Cops for Cancer charity.

The five-foot-nine beauty from Deep Cove in North Vancouver says she was caught off guard when she realized she had won the title that will see her move into the Miss World Pageant in March 2009.

"I didn't feel anything as I was in complete shock," said Vahidi who competed against 25 other young women inside the Chief Sepass Theatre. "I have never experienced such an exhilarating experience in my life."

Vahidi, who is a legal assistant with prestigious downtown Vancouver law firm, Davison Wiebe Douvelos LLP, embodies this year's pageant theme, "Beauty With a Purpose."

Born in Iran, Vahidi recently finished writing a novel about the aesthetic qualities to be found within her home country. She says that despite common presumptions that "Iran is an ugly nation," there is much beauty to be found in its culture, history, women and art.

The newly minted author, who also plays piano and paints, sees herself with a career in either law or journalism, just as long as she "has a voice that makes a difference in the world."

As Miss BC World 2008, Vahidi says she will use her crown to raise money for cancer. Inspired by her father's friend who was diagnosed with bone marrow cancer, Vahidi wants to raise awareness about the terminal disease. And so far, she's apparently already made an impact.

"The highlight of winning was when I got off stage to meet my family and a little girl that had survived brain cancer came up to me to ask to take a photograph with me," she said. "It melted my heart. I was so proud of her and she said that she was so proud of me. I have never felt so blessed and so privileged at that exact moment."

Although completely gorgeous, Vahidi is not without her klutzy side.

Two things she never leaves home without: Eye drops and Band-Aids. "For some reason things always get into my eye," she laughed.

Date Posted: 14:13:56 08/07/08 Thu

I just visited www.beautyinpageants.blogspot.com and learned about the participation of three beauty queens at the Amazing Race Asia. They are Natalie Glebova, Pailin and Tisha Silang.

_____________________________________________

She conquered the universe. She conquered the earth. She conquered the Philippines. But only one of them emerged victoriously.

That was years ago. This time, they have the same mission and that is to conquer Asia through the Amazing Race. And one of them will emerge victorious once more. Who is she?

Three former beauty queens are taking part in a show called the Amazing Race Asia. From the the stage, they are taking their battlefields to the real world as they try to race around the world especially Asia to win - this time, not a pageant crown - a hundred thousand US dollars.

From pageant beauties, they are now Amazing beauties.

Former 2005 Miss Universe Natalie Glebova of Canada is representing Thailand on the third installment of the popular Amazing Race. She is racing with her friend, also a beauty queen, Pailin Rungratanasunthorn who represented Thailand at the Miss Earth 2006 in Manila, Philippines.

Glebova is married to a Thai popular tennis player, Paradorn. This marriage made her eligible to represent Thailand, the country where she won her title as Miss Universe.

On the other hand, Tisha Silang is representing the Philippines together with her boyfriend of 8-years younger, Geoff Rodriguez. Tisha won the right to represent Philippines to the 1998 Miss Universe pageant in Hawaii, USA. But she was forced to give up her title because of a citizenship issue. Tisha is also a Canadian citizen of Filipino parents. She's having dual citizenships.


Only Glebova won her respective pageant being the Miss Universe 2005. Pailin was unplaced at the Miss Earth 2006 while Tisha Silang did not go to the Miss Universe pageant.

Now, the question is who will become winner out of the three? Will Glebova repeat her success with Pailin or will Tisha take this oppurtunity to prove herself.

Watch the show at AXN-Asia starting 11 September 2008 at 9 pm HKT every Thurdays.

As per the spoilers posted at www.entermyworld.heavenforum.com and RFF, Tisha seems to be part of the final 4 while Natalie and Pailin were unnoticed. From EnterMyWorld, Tisha was seen in Singapore Airport booking a flight to Cochin, India. A blogger saw them and he was able to sneak a photo of them. You can check the pictures at the Spoilers Corner of the site.

The three beauties will also be first seen on the show by 04 September 2008 when AXN airs a one-hour special titled Racers Revelead.

I've been reading all of the posts regarding Samantha Tajik not making the semis, and that she was plastic and it was no suprise not hearing her name called during the finals, re-creating Natalie clones...and how Canada doesn't have much to choose from, etc, etc, etc.

There is some truth to everyone's points. However, I think that Canada does have some truly gorgeous girls, but they just aren't interested in competing, or the pageant scene doesn't appeal to them.

With the disclusion of Samantha Tajik during the live telecast, it's true, there was no surprise there. She rocked the preliminaries and did her best. But there will always be other contestants that will do better. But I truly believe that she did have that international appeal as well....whether or not she made the finals, I think Sam did her best and that's all what we could ask for, when representing the country.

As for repeats in the next edition of Miss Universe Canada, there will definitely be a batch of girls who want to try again and win it. Lina Lombana, Aleksandra Malkin, Genida Prifti, Claudia Olejnik....I'm sure will re-enter. Will they win? 80% chance...but no guarantee.

Anyways, Miss Universe 2008 is over. Venezuela, who was my favorite for the crown won....just like when I called it for Canada in 2005. CONSISTENCY, presence, and confidence, the minute she steps in the host country is the main key.

Natalie had it, Alice had it, Zuleyka, Riyo, all of them....

and we need to find another girl that will do that!

Posted By DAVID NESSETH, STANDARD-FREEHOLDER


Barbara Joan Markham gave a queen-like wave as she cruised down Pitt Street Monday holding a bouquet of roses in a sky blue 1968 Chevy.

It's familiar territory for the 75- year-old Cornwall native, who grew up on the city's main drag, eventually to be crowned with the prestigious modelling title of Miss Canada in 1954. No other local woman has held the honour.

"I'm flabbergasted," Markham said Monday, appreciative of the commemoration ceremony held for her by local MP Guy Lauzon at his Cornwall office.

Lauzon said he wanted to honour the former Miss Canada's achievement because he felt it was something that had fallen well under the radar in recent times.

"A lot of people don't know about this. It's a great news story for Cornwall," he said. "We have a star, a legend in out midst. Born and raised on Pitt Street."

At 5 feet 9.5 inches tall, 145 lbs. (37- 26-37), dark brown hair, a fair complexion and blue eyes, Markham wowwed the legendary pageant's judges at the week-long competition in London, Ont. She beat out 22 other ladies at the event.

While it was impossible to argue that Markham didn't look great in a swimsuit or an evening gown, it was the talent portion of the competition that really set her apart. Her paintings were impressive, and partly the reason she entered the Miss Canada competition in the first place.

"I did it to promote my paintings. I got a bit of notoriety," said the Moulinette Island resident.

While pageants may be more glamourous nowadays, she said, they don't place the same emphasis on talent.

Markham was and is a portrait artist. She had attended the Ontario College of Art and Design and wanted to continue her studies abroad in Paris and Rome. She presented Prime Minister Louis St. Laurent with a portrait of himself and also did one of Cornwall native Nathan Phillips, who was mayor of Toronto at the time.

On July 31, 1954, all of Cornwall welcomed Markham with a homecoming parade. Posters read: "We have the Seaway and Miss Canada too!"

Markham said she was OK sharing the spotlight with the mighty Seaway project. "It was great publicity for both of us."

She travelled all over the U. S., and even competed in the Miss America pageant, where she finished 12th out of 50 contestants.

Does anyone know why the age qualifications for Miss World Canada and Miss Universe Canada are different?

The cutoff age for Miss World is 24 but MUC is 27.
Anyone know the reason for this? Just curious,
Thanks!
