MSU 2006...
In a bid to distance itself from the perception that beauty pageants are only for the brainless, this year's Miss Singapore Universe actually features 3 postgrad contestants. I think in the history of MSU, no postgrad students have taken part in this kind of beauty pagent. So, this year is an exception in order to show that MSU finalists are not a bunch of bimbos but those who possessed brains and looks. Anyway, after watching the pageant on Sunday night, my impression of highly educated personnels changed. It seems that they are not so good in presenting themselves afterall. Juliana Chan was contestant most touted by the media and she was expected to outshine the rest of the contestants in the Q and A session. Being the A*Star scholar and a future PhD doctor, I would have expected her to come up with some intelligent answer for her question on whether Singaporeans are able to slow down and appreciate the music. Her response was Singaporeans are going at 150km/hr and they better not exceed the speed limit otherwise they will get a parking ticket. I was like duh.. u dun get a parking ticket for speeding..u get a speeding ticket!!!
I guess the most confident and one of the better looking contestant is jade seah. She is definitely my hot favourite for that night. Nick said that this girl is damn loud and vulgar in school, even worse than the sgt and warrant officer in SAF... lol.. She's just the direct opposite of lightning and thunder. You can see the lightning before you can hear the thunder. But you can hear her 10 blocks away before you see her. Look at the way she answers her first question. Her first response was like Wah! So chor lor...got ah lian seh..But on the whole, I feel that she is more deserving to be the winner of the MSU compared to carol cheong whom I think is more bimbo la. I seriously think she won cos she is the most busty contestant in the pageant. No doubts why she got the highest points in the swim wear category and won the body beautiful award.
