Oprah Winfrey purportedly released a statement a few hours after the Miss Universe 2011 was crowned, yesterday. Below is the said statement which was allegedly shared by Oprah to NBC News:

“I have reservations with the results. If the only basis is the Q and A portion…, after having been trimmed down to 5, Ms. Philippines deserved to win. What made her different from the rest is that she had no seconds to rethink of her answer as she had no interpreter to break the ice. The rest had their interpreters and having breaks on seconds to think about their answers. Hands down, Ms. Philippines answered straight to the point.”

The alleged Oprah statement made its rounds in social media sites and was even picked up by some news sites despite the absence of a reliable "mother link."

Just today, Oprah Winfrey's camp has denied the "Queen of Talk" making the said statement.

"There is no truth to the statement. Ms. Winfrey has not made any comments of this nature." the moderator of Oprah's official website said.Source URL: https://costumesgirl.blogspot.com/search/label/miss%20universe%202011

Miss Universe 2011 candidates reminded to wear panties

Miss Universe 2011 candidate Catalina Robayo of Colombia

The Miss Universe 2011 pageant was successfully held yesterday at the Credicard Hall in São Paulo, Brazil. But did you know that barely 24 hours before the coronation night, the contestants were reportedly reminded of wearing their panties?

The main candidate in question was Miss Colombia Catalina Robayo who was alleged of going commando, wearing no panty at her official Miss Universe 2011 appearances.

Quoting a source, Fox News reported that Miss Colombia "had to be spoken to and told she needed to wear underpants as what she was doing was totally inappropriate.”

“People have been pretty upset by it; there have been photos and media appearances where she has completely had her crotch out,” the source added.

Paula Shugart, President of the Miss Universe Organization, also told Fox News that she was surprised seeing Catalina Robayo's commando photo on a newspaper.

“There were several girls in short dresses which caused concern, but when I saw the (commando) picture on the front page of one of the local papers I was very, very surprised,” Shugart said.

“Our supervisors talked to all of the contestants about dressing appropriately, and one of our PR people spoke to her (Robayo) and apparently she said she was wearing underwear. But regardless, it created quite a stir here for a few days,” she added.

Miss Colombia entered the Top 16 during the pageant night but failed to make it to the Top 10.

The Miss Universe 2011 crown went to Miss Angola Leila Lopes, the 1st Angolan and 4th black woman to win the title. Representatives of Ukraine, Brazil, the Philippines, and China placed 2nd, 3rd, 4th and 5th respectively.Source URL: https://costumesgirl.blogspot.com/search/label/miss%20universe%202011
