Venezuela: "I had no plastic surgery after elected in my country"A press conference with the Miss Universe contestants happened this
morning at the hotel they are staying at, in Sao Paulo. Plastic surgery
was the main topic and the most asked question by journalists was, “Have
you had any cosmetic surgery to participate in the pageant?”.
After saying that “Brazilians are very friendly and that she had had
some intense preparation to participate in Miss Universe, Miss Curaçao
did not want to answer if she’s gone through cosmetic surgery. “It’s my
little secret”, she stated.Miss Argentina mentioned that she had a breast implant years before
knowing she was going to compete in a beauty pageant. The same talk was
shared by Miss Venezuela. Vanessa Gonçalves, today 25, said she had her
breast size enhanced when she was 19, and after that, has never gone
through plastic surgery again in her life.Miss France explained that in her country plastic surgeries are not
allowed among girls who participate in the French national pageant. “In
France, natural beauty is appreciated. I am 100% real!”, she said with
sense of humor.
Australia and France: 100% naturalScherri-lee Biggs, Miss Australia, 21, commented: “Everything is also
natural here. I am too young to have a plastic surgery”. The Australian
stunner also mentioned she loves the Brazilian bikinis.About preparing for the pageant, most delegates said they had
English classes and learned how to behave in front of the judges.Miss China, for instance, took all kinds of classes, including
intensive English, in the United States. Miss Costa Rica, went even
further: she studied Portuguese for two months, and has been able to
communicate really well with Brazilians in the local language.Miss Philippines took Portuguese and samba classes before traveling
to Brazil, and when asked if she could say a few words, she answered:
“Um pouco”, which means, “a little”.Miss Angola, Leila Lopes, visited Brazil 5 times in her process of
preparation. She said Brazil as a lot of influence on the Angolan
culture nowadays, and that she is a big fan of the Brazilian soap
operas.Miss Colombia told journalists she is impressed with how big and
great São Paulo is: “I fell like being at home”. Catalina Robayo also
did not hesitate in saying that she believes she should be the winner:
“Of all 89 candidates, I am the most complete one”. | |
