Since 2009 there were rumours on Italy being interested in hosting the Miss Universe pageant..as Donald Trump,interviewed by italian media,had expressed his wish to let Italy host the Miss Universe final! Now the Miss Universe Italy ORG. is revealing (in one of its OFFICIAL regional sites) that there's the STRONG possibility that Italy might host it in the NEXT THREE YEARS!
Italy should concentrate on it's long overdue crown first!
MU hasn't been in Europe since 2000 in Cyprus or if you consider that a part of Asia, then 1973 in Greece. I'd love for this to happen and am hoping it will but I doubt it.
OMG! I would love to see MU in Italiy, especially in Rom, I was there and it was amazing!
But with the current finiancial probelms Italy has to face that get worse day by day, I strongly doubt the government would allow to spend so much money for a beauty pageant.

The only way that it could be brought to Italy is if MUO decreases the hosting fees or a private company or corporation sponsors the pageant, like what happened in Sao Paulo. If that doesn't happen, they can kiss hosting goodbye.
Don't know about the "next three years" ... but I really do hope they do it in ITALY this year! OMG! How perfect would that be?!?! ... I mean, I simply can't think of a more perfect setting for MU this year!!

It'd be great if Italy would be hosting in the coming years. It'd be the first time since 1973, after Athens hosted.
I'd love to see Miss Universe being broadcast from Continental Europe.

Postscript:
Cyprus is geographically not a part of Europe. It is part of Asian Continental Plate. Just go back to your High School Asian geography textbooks. Though Cyprus shares a largely European culture and a part of the Eurozone, it is still a part of the Asian continent. The same follows with Turkey (though 3% of its land area is within Europen continental plate).
