Ours couldn't even make it into TOP 15...Though she got selected by the pageant organized by SUSHMITA SEN's(ex MISS UNIVERSE in 1994)company I AM SHE..

I was hoping for USHOSHI SENGUPTA(indian contestant)but she stood nowhere..POOR GIRL!!!

So what are we discussing here?? About the mistake of MISS PHIL or MODs.??? :)))

I'd watched the full pageant live on TV and yes it was the most funniest or rather say a weirdest reply by Miss PHIl...Though i was hooting for Miss Phil coz of her attractive and charismatic personality but she failed me when she'd answered the judges...Look for my comments here if you guys can't believe that i was really praying hard for Miss Phil to win the contest..

Agreed genesis.. Can't see any grounds for banning him.

Tuesday morning, I posted a thread and it was stopped because the reason given was a similar post was created Monday early evening (and even mentioned that I joined the discussion which is evidently, I did not). Fine, I agreed not to continue the thread. But another similar thread was started Wednesday (also in the main forum) and Mods never lifted a finger against it. Now I wonder, am I being singled out by a specific Mod?

to even suggest someone commit suicide is simply unacceptable.

flan I could never take QL any lower than the collective angry unqualified racist workforce who are meant to be serving Qatar by day but in reality neglect their duties and just post their rubbish on here 24/7, if anything, my suggestion would raise QL up a few good points as well as improve the state of Qatar.

‎"I think the major mistake i've done was not fully ensuring the legality of my citizenship as Filipino which could have dethroned me as a candidate for this contest. And i know that in my heart and my mind i am a true Filipino. I was able to correct it, by doing my best to arrange all the formalities and legalities, and the result is, i am now here in front of all of you ladies and gentleman. Thank you."

Shocks!!! she could have been the super winner if she had thought about this!!!

She was doing good, but at that question she blew it....

not being able to CHUMP quickly on those BBQ PORK RIBS that you VEGAS had brought once upon a time on a BBQ feast... hey TCOM! How thee :)

oh boy, PORK does really make you insane on those days...

She did not learn from her mistake back in the miss Philippines Pageant. She answered horribly there and I still cannot get over the fact the she had won amidst that senseless answer &feature=search. She must have thought she can get away with it again in Miss Universe. I feel sorry she did not won the title. I think she's contented at what she achieved so kudos to that. Personally I really don't care about it much O.o

Yeah, come to think of it...

Telling about "committed mistake" is somehow telling your negative side which can be a bad impression on a person... maybe that's why she opted not to tell anything...

its really hard when the contest is all about beauty, isnt it?

What she could have answer is that, she might not have a major mistake in her life YET, but somehow if she can commit a mistake, intentionally or unintentionally, she will do her best to correct the same in order for her to grow and become mature more in her life.

More safe but satisfying (just my opinion)... ;)

Was't she the one having some problem in birth Certificate which even threatened her Miss Philipines title? She could have picked "Not checking birth certificate" as her biggest mistake I think.

you were trained to be confident in dealings with customers and clients. Miss Universe is a different arena, you're not dealing actually of thousand viewers but million of viewers and the chill (even how much you were prepared for it) will naturally comes-out, and maybe that's what happened to Venus!

have u, guys, asked yourself that question? what answer did you come up with? how long did it take you to come up with an answer?

how much more if you are pressed for time, with a million pairs of eyes looking at you and a panel of judges straining to hear every word you say?

i might go..."umm..ummm...yanni...ummm...kalas...!

still, she made her mark, she's the 4th runner up...let's not speculate that she could have won the crown if she answered the question otherwise...

Giving a speech, which you have prepared for and rehearsed is different form being put on the spot in front of thousands and questioned... you have a thousand things going on in your mind and sometimes you dunno what you wanna say.

or thought many things. But standing in from of the world, you really don't know what's the feeling. But that's part of extensive training she had undergone, I suppose so.

But saying something that may sound so negative might also bring negative look BUT saying nothing, that's her biggest mistake!
