Other pageants at least try to pretend that other countries have a chance but Miss Universe is just so blatant about it. It's a real turn-off.
same thing happens with FIFA world cup and i don´t see soccer fans complaining for that
I am a soccer fanatic, and soccer is like a religion to me, lol! I don’t think it is comparable with the issue at Miss Universe. In soccer, whether you root for a team, and you want them to win, FIFA does not dictate who does better, who scores the goals, how many goals are scored, etc etc, the total control of that lies in each country’s team and players. They are actually competing on a field… where in Miss Universe, there are judges, who may not be objective, and their favouritism plays the most important role of making the decision of who wins.
PS. And I just realized “SMILE” just posted almost the exact thing I did
