DO YOU KNOW…

that in the 1954 Miss Universe, a statistical tie between her and first runner up (Brazil’s Martha Rocha) happened? The tie-breaking decision eventually came down to who’s physically sexier...the title went to Miriam because of her “fitter” hips… and out of goodwill, Miriam gave the car she won as part of her prize to Martha... :=p


This is a good way to break a tie. I wonder what is the current rule in case of a tie.


...it's probably more of who gave the best answer in the final Q&A...or if there's still a tie, they'll refer to the standings in the preliminary round -- the one who got the higher score wins the title.

Personal request to the TS-

Could you please tell us more about the case of a former Miss USA titleholder who almost sued the brother of then richest man in the world,Sultan Bolkiah for (reportedly) harassing her. She was invited in Brunei together with other beauty queens for a show, Sultan's playboy brother reportedly asked her for a strip show.


Did you know...

That a former Filipina beauty queen was paid by the brother of Sultan for a night of 'togetherness'?. She was given a blank check (meaning,she could write any amount she wanted).
In life, there are things we can not control and we can control. For the things I can not control, I leave them to my Creator, and for the things I can control, I let my attitude take over.

...ah, Miss USA 1992, Shannon Marketic!

...indeed, Prince Jefri Bolkiah of Brunei, brother to the Sultan of Brunei, was sued for US$90 million by Ms. Marketic... claimed that she and six other women were held as virtual prisoners for 32 days and told they were expected to engage in sexual activity at all-night parties. A U.S. District Judge ruled that Prince Jefri was protected under the Foreign Sovereign Immunity Act and cannot be sued in the United States.

Wow. Very quick! Thank you. Prince Jefri really has a penchant for beauty queens...

FYI and others-
Prince Jefri is considered persona non grata now in Brunei, he is neither welcome nor allowed to step back in his very own country.Though is a playboy,many locals consider him as the nicest among the royals,has the heart for the poor. Not only was/is he known for splurging money on beautiful women from around the world but also for giving to the less fortunate.

@Jojo: I thought Prince Jefri Bolkiah was allowed back to Brunei in 2009? His case for embezzling $14.8 billion of Brunei funds is still on litigation, right?

Hi Eddie, yes it was reported he was allowed back but never really set foot in. Unless,it was done very very secretly.Yes for his case. He is rumored to be hiding in Europe.

Dismas, I got these pageant information about dethroned, disqualified, resigned, or replaced beauty queens:

1953 - Armi Kuusela, Miss Universe 1952, gives up her title to get married shortly before completing her reign. No formal replacement is made.

1954 - Ellen Whitehead, 1st Runner-Up to Miss USA 1954, is disqualified after it is revealed that she is only 16.

1957 - Mary Leona Gage, Miss USA 1957, is dethroned after it is revealed that she is married and a mother of two. Charlotte Sheffield, 1st Runner-Up to Miss USA 1957, is crowned Miss USA 1957.

1967 - After Miss USA 1967 wins Miss Universe 1967, Susan Ellen Bradley, 1st Runner-Up to Miss USA 1967, refuses the Miss USA title. Cheryl Ann Patton, 2nd Runner-Up to Miss USA 1967, is crowned Miss USA 1967. This marks the first time that a runner-up is formally crowned Miss USA after the original Miss USA wins Miss Universe. Prior to 1967, when Miss USA won Miss Universe, no formal replacement was made.

1973 - Marjorie Wallace, Miss World 1973, is forced to resign because of her high-profile serial dating.

1974 - Amparo Munoz, Miss Universe 1974, is dethroned for her violent temper and behavior. No formal replacement is made.

1974 - Helen Morgan, Miss World 1974, resigns after it is revealed that she is an unwed mother.

1980 - Miss USA 1980 contestants are offered an all-expense paid trip to Korea to watch Miss Universe 1980. Shawn Weatherly, Miss USA 1980, wins Miss Universe 1980. Jineane Ford, 1st Runner-Up to Miss USA 1980, is crowned Miss USA 1980. This marks the first and only woman to have been crowned Miss USA on foreign soil and the second to be crowned Miss USA outside of the continental United States.

1980 - Gabriela Brum, Miss World 1980, resigns claiming her boyfriend disapproved. It is later revealed that she had posed nude for a magazine.

1984 - Vanessa Williams, Miss America 1984, is dethroned after nude photos of her taken before the pageant surface. Suzette Charles, 1st Runner-Up to Miss America 1984, is crowned Miss America 1984.

1985 - Andrea Stelzer from South Africa withdraws from Miss Universe 1985 because of anti-apartheid demonstrations. Stelzer later competes at Miss Universe 1989 representing Germany where she is a semi-finalist.

1999 - Trisha Heflin from Guam is disqualified from Miss Universe 1999 after it is revealed that she is pregnant.

2002 - Oxana Federova, Miss Universe 2002, is dethroned after failing to fulfill the duties stipulated in her contract. Federova maintains that she resigned. Justine Pasek, 1st Runner-Up to Miss Universe 2002, is crowned Miss Universe 2002.

2002 - Dzejla Glavovic, Miss Earth 2002, is dethroned for failing to fulfill the duties stipulated in her contract. Winnie Adah Omwakwe, 1st Runner-Up to Miss Earth 2002, is crowned Miss Earth 2002.

...thanks eddie...the list of dethroned, disqualified, resigned, or replaced beauty queens goes on and on

...worth-mentioning, too, is the much-talked about removal of 2009 Miss Earth-Air Sandra Seiffert from the roster of Binibining Pilipinas 2009 finalists... because of some photos of her in a glossy men's magazine that were deemed obscene by the BPCI.

...more on Leona Gage:

Image

Leona Gage won the title of Miss USA in 1957, representing the state of Maryland. The next day, she was stripped of her crown when it was revealed that she was married and the mother of two children. She had also lied about her age and was only 18, not 21. At the time, the Miss USA and the Miss Universe pageants took place at the same time in Long Beach, California. Gage had competed in the Miss Universe preliminary and had been already announced as a Miss Universe semifinalist when she was deposed. Her successor, Charlotte Sheffield of Utah, failed to qualify for semi-finals because she did not take part in the preliminary judging. The vacant spot went to Miss Argentina, Mónica Lamas. The Miss Universe title was won ultimately by Peru's Gladys Zender.

Coincidentally, Zender also nearly lost her crown when her age was revealed to be only 17, and therefore under the minimum age requirement. Pageant officials, however, allowed her to retain her title...Charlotte Sheffield was sent to the Miss World pageant in London later in the year.

That was crazy, wasn't it? And she shone in Miss Earth!
