Across The Universe
I’d love to have the time to do some kind of statistical analysis on the Miss Universe contestants but, instead, I’ll just have to say it’s fun to look at their last online interview question: “What makes you unique and different from the other contestants?”
Most of the contestants are divided between (1) saying they believe their personalities set them apart while telling us that they are sure the other women are also unique and (2) saying that their desire to reach their goals sets them apart. In other words, the same garbage that they think everyone wants to hear - proving that shoveling it is truly universal.
Personally, I’ll be cheering for Miss Croatia and Miss Guyana.
Miss Croatia provides two of life’s requirements, food and shelter, on her own! She cooks and currently has her own apartment! Awesome!
I love Miss Guyana: “I possess the uncanny ability to read and write upside down (opposite directions, reverse direction).” I looked at every contestant and I’m pretty sure she’s the only one that identified having a weird talent and that rocks.
I’m supposed to be all about cheering for the USA but Miss USA wants us to know that she’s real. What does that even mean? That’s what sets her apart? She’s the only contestant to have used that phrase too which, I guess, must be a USA thing to say.
