The Miss Universe contest is approaching....I'm not sure if you guys don't give a penny to that, whereas the following link has the pageants' profiles and their languages (at least that's what they claim)....by the way, could you tell us what are your 3 fave girls?
Mine fave ones are: Colombia, Jamaica and Iceland. http://www.missuniverse.com/members/contestants 1 person has voted this message useful | |||

My fascination with Portuguese was started in part because of the Miss Universe Contest and Miss Angola 2007 (Micaela Reis), who is to this day, one of the best looking women I've ever seen:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=38yreQnLyRA I remember watching one of those short interviews completely awestruck, and thinking "What language is that? I wonder what shes saying." Edited by tritone on 13 August 2009 at 8:23pm 1 person has voted this message useful | |||

Yeah, buddy, she's truly stunning and breathtaking....I bet you know that Angolan accent is pretty close to the spoken in Portugal, right? 1 person has voted this message useful | |||

I don't know if I could just pick 3. That is kind of hard. To me, Germany, Korea, and Egypt if I had to pick. Then my next 3 would have to be Iceland, Australia, and Switzerland. Those are my top six.

Costa Rica, Ukraine, and Colombia
Haha I was just thinking how much those girls need to eat something when I scrolled to the bottom and saw an ad for free Big Macs. 1 person has voted this message useful | |||
