They took all the fun and all the glamour out. IMG was a mistake!
Miss USA will be the same as Miss Universe except maybe a better connection since its being held in Nevada.

Well, the bad thing about this is when they try to redefine ''beauty queen'', they come up with women without substance just for entertainment.manoypoe wrote:THE TRADITIONALISTS JUST DONT WANT SOME CHANGES. THEY ARE STUCK UP TO THEIR AGE-OLD CONCEPT OF A BEAUTY PAGEANT AND BEAUTY QUEENS. TRY EVOLVING BESTIES. THAT IS GOOD FOR HEALTH.
I just wish that they would give them an actual interview competition in which all the girls are asked by the host along with an interpreter, which they did in the past. The segments should be properly organized, though. The video segments after the announcement of each girl must be shown after the selection of the semifinalists, the top 9, then the top 6. That's far better.koji wrote:Entertainment-wise, it's getting horrible. Miss Universe format in the Philippines during the pageant night was boring as hell.

What I like about the pageant is that it eliminate bimbos (e.g. Medina and Ariadna) and women without substance (e.g. Ariadna): just a woman you want to f**k not be serious when she talks about important issues (e.g. Ximena).
Indeed. The only spectacular edition of Miss World was 2013, and Miss International, although a part of the Big 5, is like a pageant held in a ballroom except that there's no glamour at all and it seems to be like an event set in the 80s forever except that the people are modern.blazingskyx27 wrote:Even at its very worst, Miss Universe still sets the bar of how a beauty pageant should be presented & executed. Of course, we always expect better from the MUO to pull off a groundbreaking edition in the future, but at least I still find the final shows watchable and palatable. Try watching Miss International or Miss World in comparison, you will find yourself yawning or bored right out of your skull, highly recommended for insomniacs to lull them to sleep.

P.S. I don't think that Maxine is a ''bimbo'' or Ximena is a ''not-so-serious'' girl. However, Maxine definitely has communication flaws and Ximena should've controlled her ''frank'' personality (e.g. her comments about her visit to India).

THE IDEA OF BRING BACK THE PAGEANT TO THE 90'S FORMAT WONT WORK IN THIS SUPERFICIAL DAYS. WHAT WE PAGEANT FANS WANT IS DIFFERENT HOST COUNTRY EVERY YEARS LIKE DURING TRUMP ERA'S, 3-4 WEEKS BUSY PRE-ACTIVITIES LIKE IN MANILA, GLAM SHOOT ALA FADIL BERISHA, GRAND STAGE LIKE IN THAILAND 2005 & VIETNAM 2008, FIERCE SWIMSUIT COMPETITION & EVENING GOWN LIKE IN 2003-2008! THEN MUO WILL BE ON THE TOP AGAIN!

Good, just like Puteri indonesia only 10 days. whats the point having months pageant orientation even they already know the best girls since day one, thank you social medias i'm pretty sure the moment they arrives in the Hotel, MUO already knows which girl is the best for one year job as Miss USA and then Miss Universe.

MariaAndreina wrote:I see some of you here missing the point. This isn't about the MUO's recent change of going back to the 90's format where they cared more about substance and intelligence rather than catwalks, fierceness, etc.
This is about the MUO cutting the pre-pageant activities short. Eliminating all the pre-pageant photoshoots. Introducing the girls only by their countries during final night. Cutting the girls' time on stage to some miserable 8 seconds and making them walk in groups. Reducing the amount of trips the winner gets to do over her reign. And the list goes on.
