The Miss Universe 2006 contest (do they still call it a pageant?) will be held in Los Angeles, CA on Sunday, July 23.

Their new Web site is fun to poke around, and makes good use of video (each contestant even has a Vblog — you can even subscribe to each contestant’s RSS feed for their respective Vblogs).

Some contestants look amazing in their bikini photo (Miss Puerto Rico), but the video doesn’t do them many favors…

While, some women (Miss Australia) shine more in their videos than their photos…

My favorite contestant, Miss Mexico (23-year old Priscila Perales), looks amazing in her photo shoots and has a great video (her English is flawless—in fact, you have to really listen to pickup any Mexican accent).

My choice for First Runner-up is Miss Zambia (23-year old Mofya Chisenga) — just watch her video, listen to her talk about Zambia, and tell me that you wouldn’t want to have her as your tour guide on an African safari.

h/t to John at Powerline, who likes Miss Sri Lanka, whom he thinks “looks ravishing and sounds as though she grew up in Wisconsin.”

I don’t doubt that many of the contestants did grow up in Wisconsin.

That’s insane… nobody should look that good. I don’t remember looking that fabulous when I was their age, and I was hot.

Bunch of bitches….

My favorite six are Australia, Canada, Bolivia, Japan, USA and Mexico! Have blogged about it…. :-)

I think that Miss Spain should wear the crown. She is one of the most beautifull contestant.

My second favourite contestan is Miss Trinidad & Tobago, but you know beauty is beauty and most of the time they are so so stupid, tha I have my really doubts they could get the crown.

Filipinos around the world, let’s vote for Philippines for the sake of our country’s another victory of the pageant.
Mabuhay Philippines!!!!!Good luck to Miss Lia Ramos!

I have decided to choose the best 5 to be on the top. They are Miss Philippines, Mexico, Puerto Rico, Australia and India.
Miss Philippines has the greatest chance to be the miss universe this year because of her ability, qualification and beauty.

Miss Philippines has the qualification to be the miss universe this year. Let’s vote for her. Good luck to Miss Philippines!!

I would rather choose Miss Philippines and Miss Korea to be on the top 5. They are the best asian candidates i have ever seen. And i think that Miss Philippines would be the miss universe 2006.

I’m not a filipino but i bet Miss Philippines to be the Miss Universe this year. She is intellegent, smart, confident, amazing and bears natural beauty. Her beauty is a good example of being a queen this year. Miss Philippines Go! Good luck!

Miss Philippines, Lia Ramos is not only very beautiful, she’s also very intelligent. I really think she’ll be one of the top 5 and hopefully Miss Universe 2006. Her exotic beauty, sex appeal and brown skin is what makes her standout. Brain, Beauty and Brown skin, the three B’s, Miss Philippines has it all!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Everyone out there let’s vote for her!

We, koreans support Miss Philippines to be the winner this year. She is the best asian candidate we’ve ever observed on the videos, photos and more. We also support our dear candidate Miss Korea but for the hope of asia, we are wishing and praying that Miss Philippines will win this pageant. To admit the truth, Miss Philippines is a powerful asian candidate. She can be trusted in so many ways during final pageant. Although we’re koreans but we accept the truth that filipino contestants are the best asian cadidate. We do feel the unity of asia. Asian people, let’s vote for Miss Philippines. She’s the last choice to be on the finals. We are united asians so let’s support her.

I’m Helen from Las Vegas, USA. I love watching Ms. Universe Pageant. In my own opinion, my top 5 for this year are Mexico, Philippines, Sri- Lanka, Spain and Thailand.

Mabuhay! Trivia: Philippines has won the Ms. Universe Pageant twice and also considered as one of the most beautiful race in the world. To all my fellowmen, let us support Filipinas! VIVA FILIPINAS!!! Ms. Philippines is really outstanding and gorgeous. Yummy! I think I’m falling inlove with her. God bless you all!

i am not a filipino but i do support ms. philippines as the new ms. universe 2006. she is very beautiful, intelligent, modest and attractive. that is what we need for a ms. universe. AS I HAVE SAID, THERE IS/ARE CONTESTANTS WHO APPEARED NAKED/NUDE IN ADULTS-ONLY MAGAZINE. SO SHE SHOULD BE BANNED IN COMPETING. PHILIPINA ARE BEAUTIFUL. PHILIPPINE PEOPLE MUST SUPPORT MS. PHILIPPINES-

Miss USA is the best!!! Ms. Philippines is also beautiful and has a unique beauty. Come what may! Go Ms. USA :))

I am an American. I support Miss Philippines to be the Ms. Universe for 2006. Of course, I like Ms. USA too. Ms. Philippines looks stunning and intelligent.

Of course i love Miss USA and im prayin that she wud get the crown but on the other hand my eyes was tucked the beauty of Miss Philippines. She is very pretty indeed and i submit what others said about her.
Good luck to both of u Miss USA and Miss Philippines!

Hello everyone! Tonight is the bigggggg night for all the most beautiful women in the universe. Miss Philippines, Lia Ramos is absolutely the most stunning one. All the contestants are beautiful, but Miss Lia Ramos is what I call the ” Goddess of Beauty”. Miss USA is also one of my favorites. She is very cute and attractive! I vote for Miss Philippines and Miss USA!. Mabuhay Ang Beauting Pilipina!!!

i think MS Sri Lanka was gorgeous. Looking at her personality, family background, intelligence and the amount of charity work that she has done, she should at least deserve to be in the top 10. i wonder why she didn’t get chosen??????????????????

I think the Miss Universe pageant is a ridiculous display of vanity, desire for fame, and egomania. While I’m sure the contestants are good people who do some good work, in general I think the Miss Universe pageant does more harm than good. What a bunch of plastic fake looking people! Even though they come from all over the world- there is a homogenity to all of them. Was anyone from the Milky Way represented in this Universal pageant? Pa-leese. Who cares who is the hottest? Who decides what is beauty? While the world tears itself up, I fail to see how these pageants, while international in scope- bring any sort of enlightenment to the planet. I look forward to the day when they no longer exist.

congrats miss puerto rico… and to all the contestants, you are all WINNERS…

Miss Japan was robbed.

There were two Puerto Rican judges, and the winner was already predicted to come from a Latin American country. It’s almost as if Miss Puerto Rico was set up to win from the start.

Halfway through, I was rooting for either Miss Japan or Miss Mexico.

This is the ugliest Miss Universe ever. She looked terrible. Hair was awful. Fake lashes. Just awful. Japan and Switzerland were robbed

I saw the show and PR blew all them all out the water..and I ain’t Puerto Rican..anyone with eyes saw that it was between PR and Japan..and if either one won it ..and one did so it was all fair face it haters….for once the judges got it right and they were not blinded by politics or the mexicans in the joint blowing up Ms. Mexico! The only thing that was a cheat was that Ms. T&T was not being in the top 5..most of those girl should not have made the top 20 but at least the one who was obviously the best performer got the price..deal with it losers!

I felt that this was Japan’s chance to have won the crown, yet it was denied her. Felt bad for her.

The winner is again Latina looking.. Puerto Rico again? Why not Japan this time? she was awesome!!!

Miss Philippines won miss photogenic. Why she’s not even on the top 20? Not fair. She deserves more than the other vane girls there. Latinas have good looks but dumbs. European like me praise Ms. Switzerland. Though you were being robbed but, for us you are the real Ms. Universe. HOOOPPPP SWIIIIZZZZZZZZZZZ!!!!!!!!!!!

WOOWWW! Kool philippines ! woww! she is hoootttttt, even she didnt get the crown she is miss photogenic,,,, woowwww! she is she is so so so niceeeeeee! go philippines lets go to philippines, philipppineeesss greattttttt people!

Miss Philippines should be atleast in top 20. Its already 7 years where the Philippines have not in the semi-finalist. They are so biased! Since Miss Universe Organization have partnership with NBC.

Because Philippines is a threat for them..

Miss Japan should have won! Compared to Miss Puerto Rico!

I hope next year Asians and africans will not join Miss Universe. We know who will be in the top 20 or 15 whatever!

Ms Puerto rico was awsome! she deserved to win: perfect body, great tan, beatiful smile, and lots of charisma; Colombia and USA should have been on the top 5; Miss Japan was pretty, but has no charisma at all..too cold !! Latinas are hot!!

Congrats to Ms. Puerto Rico !!!!! You are so beautiful & nice body huh!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I think they’re all beautiful.

For Me, its going to be Miss Italy. Although, all ladies look beautiful.

Love Always

PUERTO RICO ALL THE WAY!!!!! THERE WAS NO COMP FOR PR!!!!!

The organizer and producer of Ms. Universe should be fair to all candidates and countries. It was sad to note that most of the girls that were included in Top 20 came from South America and it could be attributed to the judges who hailed from those countries and who had connections to the organizer. It’s very aweful! There were great ladies who were not included in Top 20 who should have a spot in the top ranks like Australia, Philippines and others. I could only sympathize with Ms. Japan who walked out upon learning that she’s only First Runner Up when she could have won the pageant. Ms. Puerto Rico’s winning the beauty pageant was half-baked. To the mind of televiewers, she won because one of the judges was from Puerto Rico and other judges were from America too. If the same thing will be happening again in the future, the integrity of the contest will be lost.

Miss Israel should had won the crown more than anyone. After all Latina’s do not retain their beauty. Watch out woth Zuleyka’s (Miss Puerto Rico) weight five years from now. She will be a plump obese burrito eater. Check it out among the past Venezuelan winners how they look after the years. Former Miss Universe winner, Gloria Diaz is a grand ma and still looking stunning.

what happend to ms philippines!??!?! =/

tsk tsk.. organizers are so biased……

The Miss Universe this time is full of corrupt i would watch miss universe anymore……Miss Philippines is not even in top 20.since shes miss photogenic i know already if they put miss philippines in top 20 it will be a BIGGGGGGGG treat to the otherstop 20 candidates……oh my gosh i cant believe whats going .NBC wake upif you keep doing nobody will trust the show anymore…..IS it politics involved…..I bet it is

Miss Universe is so biased!!! I hope there will be no more pageant like this if they are not fair!!!

Ms. Phillipines always gets the photogenic award…..why is it that she was not in the top 20….i think if your beauty is standout it means you’re one of a kind and should be given the chance to be in the top 20…

You shouldn’t really get mad! LAtinas have always stuck out since the begining of MISS UNIVERSE Latin countries send their winners to MISS UNIVERSE while some asians dont, and besides LATINAS posses what MISS UNIVERSE looks for, I dont think this year in 2007 will be good for latinas :-( 2005 WAS THE BEST 4 out of 5 where latinas, but I think our hopes lies with MISS VENEZUELA, MISS MEXICO and MISS GUATEMALA if She steps up her game! A LATINA FOR MISS UNIVERSE 2007!!!

Im not a philipino but i like ms. philippnes coz i know philippines are one of the inteligent country…… go go go philippines
