Miss Puerto Rico? I thought Miss Texas was hotter myself.
I didn't know that sumo wrestlers were that thin and wore platform shoes...
A funny bastard, but a bastard none the less.
Now off with you.

I'll bet that her dad is a plastic surgeon or works with one.
I thought the host (Nancy O'Dell?) was the hottest of what I saw.
Must restrain those evil impulses.
I'll bet they're drooling all over this at DU.
Makes Katrina vanden Heuvel looks human.
Trump looks different. Is his face just fat or is it medication I wonder. He does not look well in his eyes either.
Just exactly how is that costume related to her home country? Must be a fashion thing I guess. Looks like it was designed by a woman hating, meth smoking homosexual male. Oh, it was? Never mind.
I didn't even watch but as I was channel surfing I saw Miss Puerto Rico. My first thought was she had visited a plastic surgeon. lol
No way those puppies are real.
You're right..Trump looks terrible..at least in that picture.
Shes been working out
"Ladies and gentlemen, my next wife..."
I noticed that quite a few of the Latin American contestants looked a bit... augmented. Not necessarily in a big way, but in a "baseballs in a spandex bag" way.
