Miss International Queen 2009 Evening Gown Competition

Miss International Queen 2009 Haruna Ai (Japan)

Miss International Queen 2009 Haruna Ai of Japan (C), flanked by first runner-up Kangsadal Wongdusadeekul of Thailand (R) and second runner-up Daniela Marques of Brazil. She was crowned during the Miss International Queen beauty pageant in Pattaya, southeastern Thailand late on October 31, 2009. The Miss International Queen Pageant is aimed at the promotion of tolerance and positive attitude towards transsexuals and transvestites.

Haruna Ai, 37, beat off stiff competition from 20 other glamorous contestants at the Miss International Queen 2009 who came to the Thai beach resort of Pattaya from as far as Brazil and the United States.
'I am very, very, very happy,' a tearful Miss Ai told AFP minutes after the previous title holder carefully placed a faux-diamond tiara on her head. 'I want contests like this to show everyone that they should love each other and live freely. The way of life in Japan is more traditional and transsexuals cannot live freely, but in Thailand they can do what they want.'
The contest, which was called off last year because of political turmoil in Thailand, is taken just as seriously as more traditional pageants in a nation famed for its sexual tolerance.
The first round saw them in kitschy national dress, with a US contestant resplendent in a feathered native American costume and a British entrant donning a Beefeater outfit with black satin leggings and Busby hat. The lights then sank low as the contestants paraded elegant evening gowns and later modelled pink swimsuits, while giant fluorescent kites soared over the stage.
Japan's Miss Ai won US$10,000 (S$14,005), a year's stay at a Pattaya hotel and a US$500 surgical voucher after judges picked her over runners-up Karngsadal Wongdusadeekul from Thailand and Daniela Marques of Brazil.

Preliminary Night Winners :

Top 13 :

Naysha Lopez

Armani

Mokha

Sunny

Alyssa Edwards

Tiffany McCray

Kourtney

Kim Moore

Tiffany Hunter

Aurora Sexton

Jazelle

Shantel D Marco

Rachel Michaels

I had picked a top 12 instead of 13. The only person that I picked that did not make it was Janet Andrews. She should have been in. I think Kourtney got the last spot above her.

The top 13 will compete in gown, swimwear and talent. The only score that is carried over from preliminary night is interview (won by Armani). The top 5 will also compete in on stage question and answer.

Swimsuit :

Mokha : white swimsuit w/ rhinestone accents

Jazelle : black w/ simple black acessories

Kourtney : preliminary night swimsuit

Kim Moore : leopard with leopard wrap...hair in ponytail

Sunny : black and gold...pure fish

Alyssa : leopard with gold

Naysha : black suit..ripped away to reveal a nude pink stoned swimsuit..best so far

Shantel : red leopard w/ sleeves..perfect fit

Rachel : same as prelim w/ huge brimmed hat

Tiffany McCray : navy blue with gold...looks great...

Tiffany Hunter : blue floral with wrap

Armani : black very revealing suit with stone buckles

Aurora Sexton : orange sun design swimsuit

Best in swimsuit should be : Naysha, Mokha, Sunny and Armani

Carmella Marcella Garcia is the MC tonight

Former Miss Continental Monica Munro is performing

Talent about to start :

Mokha : same talent as preliminary night / on pointe ballet, five female and one male backup dancers

Jazelle : rhythm of love scat talent..working it out

Kourtney : Dolly Parton live talent

Kim Moore : Cats broadway talent..ten backup dancers...very good.standing ovation.. she should make top 5. She is one of my picks to win it all. The other is Naysha.

Sunny : sunshine mix from preliminary night

Alyssa Edwards : work me down dance talent. She should make top 5.

Naysha : same as prelim talent / rock with you robot like talent came out of a spaceship. She should make top 5.

Shantel : same talent as preliminary night..it was ok

Rachel Michaels : same as preliminary night / shirley bassey and joan

Tiffany McCray : Lucy Vita-vega talent same as prelim night. clean talent.

Tiffany Hunter : steam heat / same as preliminary night

Armani : Michael Jackson talent, she has the look down !

Aurora Sexton : same as preliminary night / showgirls talent.She should make top 5.

Gown will decide who moves into the top five for several contestants on the fence. I think Mokha, Naysha, Kim Moore and Aurora should be in top 5 after talent. Armani, Alyssa and Jazelle are very close together for the last spot. Gown will decide.

They are on a break now, gown will be coming soon...

Gown:

Mokha : Orange w/ rhinestone strips / floral side panel / Gustavo

Jazelle : Aqua almost solid AB gown.beautiful hair. she may knock someone out of the top 5.

Kourtney : Black AB gown. Hair not her best.

Kim Moore : rainbow and black shiny gown / black arm draping.beautiful. top 5

Sunny : pink and purple stripped / trumpet bottom / Gustavo

Alyssa : pink fabric / stoned gown w/ rouging..beautiful

Naysha : preliminary pink ruffle gown .tore away top half

Shantel : black lace w/ spider web bodice

Rachel : black prelim gown ..stone bodice w/ ruffle skirt..she tripped a little

Tiffany McCray : light pink silk gown..stoned top

Tiffany Hunter : blue with black lace..ruffles on the back

Armani : shiny, purple stoned / floral ruffles

Aurora : green and gold...sold it..beautiful..top 5

Thats it for gown....

My picks for top 5 : Mokha, Kim Moore, Naysha, Armani, Aurora (the same I picked yesterday :)

Top 5 soon to be announced. Top 5 will do on stage question and answer....

Armani

Kim Moore

Mokha

Aurora

Naysha

YES, I picked all 5 correct...

Final Question is "What is one virtue you hold and how does it guide you?"

Mokha : stumbled thru answer, talked about hard work and 110% with Continental

Kim Moore : Interpretor messed up. This should not be held against her.

Naysha : doesn't know what virtue is, being positive.

Armani : live every day like its your last. the title should be hers

Aurora : Believe in ones self.

Pageant over...decision soon...

I don't know which way the judges will go. Armani's talent was ok, not great. Mokha did great, but she was first out in each category. First contestants to be judged usually are scored lower and the scores go up as the remainder of contestants are judged.

I will say the judges will go : Winner : Mokha and 1st Armani

I would go : winner Naysha 1st Mokha

2nd RU : Naysha Lopez

1st RU : Mokha Montrese

Winner : Armani

The Proclamation comes on the 40th anniversary of Stonewall:"Forty years ago, patrons and supporters of the Stonewall Inn in New York City resisted police harassment that had become all too common for members of the lesbian, gay, bisexual, and transgender (LGBT) community. Out of this resistance, the LGBT rights movement in America was born. During LGBT Pride Month, we commemorate the events of June 1969 and commit to achieving equal justice under law for LGBT Americans.LGBT Americans have made, and continue to make, great and lasting contributions that continue to strengthen the fabric of American society."
