Miss France believes Leila Lopes shouldn’t have won the Miss Universe crown

Following the Miss Universe pageant, Miss France gave an interview to a French magazine in which she made a series of remarks from which it is clear that she believes Miss Angola Leila Lopes shouldn’t have won the crown, the Washington Post reports.

Just a couple of days after the Miss Universe pageant crowned its 2011 queen, one of the beauties in the contest speaks against the new most beautiful woman in the world, stating that she doesn’t see the reason for which Leila Lopes, Miss Angola, is now wearing the crown.

Miss France, Laury Thilleman, talked to Premiere.fr about Miss Angola’s unpleasant behavior, her lack of personality and her questionable fashion taste. Her declaration started with the complaint that Lopes was not sociable. “She was the only girl I didn’t know very well. We didn’t see her much.” Then she criticized her looks. “She was often in jeans and not wearing makeup. We were all surprised by her win”. Thilleman explains that many other contestants worked more and were not rewarded as they should have been. “I don’t know, something is missing in her temperament”, the 20-year-old French beauty added.

Miss France believes that the main reason Lopes won is that the contest was held in Brazil. “The fact that the competition was held in Brazil surely played a role.” Miss France was in the top 10 finalists and Miss Brazil made it to the top 3.

Miss Universe judge, Lea Salonga, gave an interview to Funfare in which she says she believes that the contestants and the public should respect the judges’ decision, as it was made fairly. “We were told to judge them all objectively. What I now don’t understand is the brouhaha following the pageant’s conclusion”, she said. “Everyone needs to respect the judges’ decision. I stand by my ranking.”

Lot of times we had watched the pageant, there was no doubt why Ms. Lopes won. Despite having our own bet, we know she's the one. With or without make-up she deserves the crown... That night she was simply regal, queenly and brilliant in all her simplicity..... so smart. Congratulations Ms. Leila Lopes for winning the crown! By the way, the interpreter, in fact, distract her in a way. But her line of thought was so clear, and her answer was clearly understand, and amazingly admired.

Not only does she NOT need to wear make up, but she was probably saving up the torture the skin has to go through with all of that make up for the actual pageant. Her skin was flawless at the pageant, so she obviously has good skin care habits. Wearing make up every day could have worked her skin up on top of the stress that she must have been under.
France...i actually liked you for a minute there, but now that i see you're just an immature plastic girl, i am glad Angola won. You're just racist and can't believe that a woman with the looks of Leila could be the most beautiful woman out of all of the other candidates that represent diverse locations in the world. Such Eurocentric can't represent global issues of today.
