The Best and Worst.
"Her stunning face seethes easily to any beauty-watcher. She can simply end the 12-year Miss Universe drought for her country."
So went our prediction that it itself went into a "drought." Marisol Gonzales Casas, Miss Universe-Mexico 2003 was chosen as our official bet thinking it will be time again for good ‘ol Mexico to shine. Mexico may be the giant among the Spanish speaking nations and perhaps maybe the most powerful. It may be the source of telenovelas that enchanted not only the region but other countries in different continents as well.
Panama successfully hosted one of the glitzy events of the year and there is no better way to conclude it all with their trans-Caribbean neighbor as the winner. Miss Universe 2003 beamed live to estimated billions of televiewers around the world and garnered excellent ratings in United States alone but what made the entire show entertaining?
With three segments: interviews, swimsuits and gowns, we picked who topped those and who hit rock bottom. The action onstage, perhaps the shiniest in history as countless nearly slipped (wonder if there was a floor wax sponsor), had us drooling for more!
"You don’t have to be phenomenal to do phenomenal things."
~Miss South Africa Cindy Nell taalking about her work with ex-South African President Nelson Mandela. One of the best ways to ace that interview is to insert brief phrases- brief but relevant.
"...I really don’t have an answer to this question."
~asked whether she would like to be fire or water, Serbia and Montenegro’s Sanja Papic tried to brilliantly get away from the trap of question but she made a fatal mistake by saying the above phrase. It would have been cute if she answers, "I’d prefer to be water since it could kill fire."
