Miss Universe 2009 – Not as easy as it looks

So the rest of us see the pictures, agree that they’re beautiful and think that they must wake up ever morning looking perfect. I’d say very few of us thing a single shoot in VIP magazine can take 4 days preparation and 9 hours to get perfect.
The “incident” referred to in the above Xpose clip is of Ingrid Marie Rivera (Miss Puerto Rico) 2008 which was investigated by police, relating to pepper spray was put in her make up and on her gown by another contestant.
“We thought at first it was an allergic reaction, or maybe nerves,” said pageant spokesman Harold Rosario. “But the second time, we knew it couldn’t have been a coincidence.” Later, Rivera’s garments and cosmetics tested positive for pepper spray.
Miss Puerto Rico Universe pageant director Magali Febles also told the AP that pageant officials were required to postpone the final day competition because of a bomb threat. Authorities said they searched the premises with dogs but did not discover any explosives.
So if you think beauty competitions are just pretty smiles and fun, think again, beauty is a very serious thing!
