Miss Venezuela Vanessa Goncalvez posing for photographers during the Miss Universe 2011 media junket.
I don’t want to read too much into the selection, but twenty Miss Universe 2011 contenders were handpicked to attend the media junket which saw reporters and photographers from various press groups dishing out their questions and flash bulbs to the ladies who were only too willing to smile and oblige. Could they be the favorites of the locals or the preferred spokespersons of the organizers or a mix of both? Anyways, here are the 20 beauties who were present during the same.
