I was there last year as an audience and was shocked with the whole event. I even wrote a post of what I saw. I can not read the original post of this thread, I wish I could and get further information about the whole scam. I can not believe they are holding another year of the pagaent. Wow....How can they be so shameless? Moreover, its sad to see that they even got 16 participants after last year's disaster. I hope the 16 ladies review the organizers history and have some self respect enough not to participate in such phony pageant. I respect my time enough not to attend the shameless circus this year.
