This is, without a doubt, the hardest part to armchair-judge. Majority of the ladies really brought their A-game when it comes to showcasing their voluptuous bodies. And for a very good reason. This is the favorite segment of the pageant’s complete demographics. And much as I had difficulty trimming the 89 down to just 17 favorites, here goes my list in alphabetical order…

Miss Albania Xhesika Berberi

Miss Aruba Gillain Berry

Miss Australia Scherri-Lee Biggs

Miss Chile Vanessa Ceruti

Miss China Zilin Luo

Miss Costa Rica Johanna Solano

Miss Denmark Sandra Amer

Miss Greece Iliana Papageorgiou

Miss Korea Jung So-ra

Miss Kosovo Aferdita Dreshaj

Miss Nicaragua Adriana Dorn

Miss Panama Sheldry Saez

Miss Paraguay Alba Riquelme

Miss Philippines Shamcey Supsup

Miss Spain Paula Guillo

Miss USA Alyssa Campanella

Miss Venezuela Vanessa Goncalvez

So who’s the shapeliest, the most sensuous and the most confident in her swimsuit? For me, it’s a triple toss among Kosovo’s Aferdita Dreshaj, Denmark’s Sandra Amer and Chile’s Vanessa Ceruti. But three more ladies are hot on their trails, namely, Panama’s Sheldry Saez, Venezuela’s Vanessa Goncalvez and Spain’s Paula Guillo. This portion is really a battle between the Latinas and the Europeans and my take is that the latter have an edge this time around.

Who are your choices? 🙂

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.

The return of Miss Chile in Miss Universe 2011

Miss Universe Chile 2011 Vanessa Ceruti

After missing five editions of Miss Universe from 2006-2010, Chile is back into the fold. This year, someone will wear the sash in Sao Paulo, Brazil. That lady is 25 year-old Vanessa Ceruti. Standing at a proud 1.78m, she need not travel too far (just a little over three hours) to get to the host city, and that must have been one advantage the organizers considered in putting up a national pageant for 2011.

What lies ahead for Vanessa in Miss Universe? Well, the field is one of the strongest ever and it would be foolish to make any premature guesses or predictions. Let’s just hope that all contenders will step up to the plate to make it harder for the judges to select a truly deserving winner. 😉
