Shamata Deserved to be in top 5

[CHOTA CHETAN]

I dont think her answer was bad enough to warrant just a top 10 placement.........IMHO Sana shouldn't have been in the top 5....Top 10 was good enough for her and she is only 18, she could have come back after a couple of years all polished, confident and with a FAB body and skin........I feel Rochelle's was the best answer..... She looked heartbroken when she was announced as PFMI International What on Earth was ERICA thinking when she answered??????The judges looked genuinely happy for Prachi.....Harbhajan was over the moon that Vanya won PFMIWorld.....Vanya is good but RAW

[wingsofnightingale]

GIRL....SHUT UP.....I WATCHED THE WHOLE SHOW......SHAMATA WAS SO NERVOUS ....DID NOT KNOW HOW TO GRACE THE MIC....


THANK GOD SHE DID NOT ENTER......ERICA SHOULD HAVE ENTERED OR PURVA!

[van1k2]

Ipshita ruled the night for me, bt overall i think i would've chosen Vanya too if i were thejudge, i didnt like sana at all..........shamata looked regal.

[sydney005]

The show was full bollywood tamasha and nothing of the contestants.. sad. all naach gaana, what r they upto? so many awards shows r there n still they wont spare beauty pagents.

i really dont knw what Ms Morley and Ivian thought abt all of this tamasha. toooooo much man!

Rochelle should have won, i could see the unhapiness on her face whenshe was selected for international title.

Vanaya is so raw, hope she transforms soon...

Chup baith Randi, atleast SHAMATA gave a sensible answer....Erica looked more nervous and stumped by the question ......And for that matter even Vanya was a wee bit nervous.....Not every1 is of the calibre of LARA......The people who were supremely confident were Prachi and Rochelle.....

CHETAN.....TU HIJRA HAI AUR RAHEGA

Dint like Shamata at all..Sana was not gud either..Erica cud hav replaced Sana..Ipsita was gud..Himakshi should not hav entered top 10 too....

[IGeek]

Had it not been the reservation for Miss India South winner, I doubt if she had even made the top 10 cut or not. IMO Aastha/Sneha deserved the spot.

I would have also chosen Vanya as winner. Although Prachi and Rochelle answered the final question slightly better (at least content-wise), but somehow neither of them fit the MISS WORLD bill for me.

In fact, at top 10 level, only the three eventual winners gave an impressive answer. Among the rest the girls, Himakshi gave a good answer. If it was just the answers, she should have made the cut. Ipsita should have been given a direct entry to top 5, just for the "attraction" factor.

I think the judging was overall quite fair and the best girls won. Hope Vanya works on her body, else she is quite "there".

[sleepingdiva]

Erica is a dumb bit*h she should never return to any pageant Shamata was so over hyped .......Period Rochelle was so lovely her smile is just so cute instead of Himakshi Priyanka or Sneha should have entered the top 10 and Sonam deserved a spot in top 5

[CHOTA CHETAN]

I wonder why no 1 liked Shamata????? mabbe i am being partial as she was my favorite from the start..... IGEEK.... AAStha???really?????

please she looked boring and lacked the X factor she was to pageant patty

[Nishant]

Exactlyy Shamata and Himakshi should not have made it to top 10 ..Igeek rightly pointed it out

Well Jon, i wud have loved to Review but believe me there is nothing much to review. If i were to review my 3/4th review wud be filled with bollywood. Palki entry of Ivian but she speaks nothing..See this is what they gave less emphasis to pageant related stuff n gave more emphasis to cheap bolly acts..NO SS ROUND..cocktail dress round in which girls walk the ramp whilst their introduction of who they are age n stuff runs on the background..followed by tons of boolly performances. followed by eg round then QnA tOP 5 Qna..Boringgggggggg

I thought there WAS a SS round?


What a pity about the pageant....I agree with EVERY sentiment here.....enough with all of these "acts" --- make this a show about the girls once again!!!
The frustrating thing is that Miss India KNOWS how to put on an AMAZING show....not that long ago, the Miss India pageants set the standard for pageants the world over....I HATED last year's show....it was so filmy-tacky, and this year seemed more of the same. Marc had good production in 2009/10...time to change it back....I want another 2006 show! -- that was a contest, had enough "masala" AND pageanty stuff to keep everyone happy...

[Jon A]

Good to hear that Vanya has the X-factor....that is the one thing you can't teach..

Just watched the show online..Too much Bollywood!!

Ivian Sarcos looked lovely!!

I think the winners were rightly chosen...All set on the right track!!

[Jon A]

Thanks to Kasturi , I just watched the whole show..

Quick thoughts...too many performances (or rather, each one went on too long...) but I was happy to be able to FF through it

Great top 10, Vidhi was a miss, Sneha also looked stunning, she should have been there....

Top 5 -- Shamata was a miss...I thought she looked STUNNING, and her answer was good. I would personally have replaced Ipsita with her (or Purva, who also had a very good answer and looked great). Ipsita spoke NONSENSE, her delivery sucked big time but she had great presence, and was eyecatching. However, I thought Shamata and Purva were both more beautiful and had better answers.
Erica was stunning - jsut a standout, beauty wise, but that answer was weak. She should come back in a couple of years with more experience and confidence. A crown will easily be hers.

Winners -- they were the right choices, all girls stood out all night. Rochelle is an absolute doll, spoke well, sparkled, amazing on stage....she was floating all night. I would have given her one of the two bigger crowns.

Prachi - she had it in the bag after that amazing top 10 answer. She also sparkled on stage, great presence.

Vanya -- she had aura. I just could not take my eyes off her. She is absolutely stunning, she is well spoken, intelligent, and so natural. There was no question that she would win. I think she is cast from a very different mould than our recent winners, and I think she may be the right formula for MW. I don't know if they just cut the edits this way, but Julia Morley seemed very happy everytime they called her up. (She also had a piece of paper where she was writing things????_)

Sana was gorgeous, great top 10 answer, bombed big time in the top 5.
I would like to see Shamata and Erica return to take home a crown each. Both were just stunning.

[IGeek]

I think she looked better than few Top 10 girls...

Thank god someone else felt the same way as me.....

Rightly said...It had to be Vanya at the end - she had that X factor...I am sure, she will be a HIT at MW..

[sujeesh]

maria rao was best but marc new we need international crown dats why she was crowned .................

[sanen]

[sanen]

The show was full bollywood tamasha and nothing of the contestants.. sad. all naach gaana, what r they upto? so many awards shows r there n still they wont spare beauty pagents.

i really dont knw what Ms Morley and Ivian thought abt all of this tamasha. toooooo much man!

Rochelle should have won, i could see the unhapiness on her face whenshe was selected for international title.

Vanaya is so raw, hope she transforms soon...

regarding bollywood tamasha it will be always like that forever n ever n ever n ever Amen.

[pravinmum]

Shamata who everyone likes from the begening and so did I, was stunning looking and i guess she has the best style ...(along with Rochelle).. however her answer was SAD... and she was nervous or probably she was sick(not well) ..
I loved Rochelle .. i think we will have our first Miss International this year for sure.. she sexy well spoken .. very international looking and so much indian within.. love her..

I also like Prachi's answer .. Very honest and love her hindi
Vanya was the best pic ...as she had the highest energy young and glowing .. needs to work a lot on her body i think.
Vanya looked almost like Priyanka Chopra. however she needs to well spoken like her .... "Girl work on your diction " little too much

[Roopesh]

Miss International 2012 is Rochelle MAria Rao she is fab falling in love with her
