Is The Fix In On Miss Universe?
9:04AM Richard Rushfield | From Alderaan to the Crab Nebula, if there is one thing that holds all God’s species together it is our faith that the selection of Miss Universe is impartial and free of favouritism. Now that may be in doubt. More »
Miss Universe Australia Does Alright, Eh, Eh!
10:15AM Clem Bastow | While I wouldn’t normally consider a beauty pageant newsworthy (you know, unless it’s one of those ones held in a transsexual hard labour prison), I guess this is relevant to someone’s interests: Miss Universe Australia Laura Dundovic and her “interesting” dress have made it to the Top Ten of the storied feminist sweepstakes.

Was Beauty Queen Martyr Miss Puerto Rico Lying?
8:00AM Defamer Hollywood | Perhaps we’re a bit naive when it comes to the things we’re told by beauty pageant winners, so blinded by their laser-whitened smiles and duct-tape fastened cleavage that we fail to properly scrutinise unlikely claims regarding commitment to world peace and “feeding the starving Africanese children.” So you’ll forgive us when we noted without suspicion a news item in which reigning Miss Puerto Rico Universe Ingrid Marie Rivera claimed that an unknown saboteur covered her stage wardrobe in pepper spray. What seemed at first a feat of superhuman, pageant-queen-mind- over-chemical-irritant-matter has now raised questions from incredulous authorities: More »
