Diana Mendoza is Miss Universe 2008

In an Asian country, many have thought another Asian beauty will win this years “Miss Universe”, but as it turns out, the glory is back to Venezuela.

Newly crowned “Miss Universe 2008” Diana Mendoza is now officially the 5th Venezuelan to win the crown after Alicia Machado took the crown way back in 1996.

As others may have stated it, this years competition was indeed one of the best and closely contested competitions in the history of the “Miss Universe” pageant as Colombia’s Taliana Vargas (1^st Runner Up), and Dominican Republic’s Marianne Cruz (2^nd Runner Up) were probable contenders of the crown until the final decision was made.

Now this 22 year old beautiful, smart and sexy Venezuelan beauty, who happens to look a bit like Beyonce at times by the way, will be the bearer of the crown and the opportunity to serve as this years ambassador of beauty and goodness to mankind.

A well deserved win.

(but honestly I was eyeing for Miss China…)

3 Critical:

1. No Comment – now this year is well fought and I guess I won’t hear a lot of comment as for the decision. She deserves it as well as the finalist, but there can be only one. This time it’s Venezuela.
2. How Do you? – how do you say congratulations in Venezuela? Does anyone know? I’m planning to send her an email that’s why I’m asking … 🙂
3. A Movie? – this is not a surprise anymore, but I’ll be waiting for the first film or tv series that would invite her. Aside from Oprah.
