My biggest disagreement here would be with USA. Crystle is taking over Miss USA for 2021 so Asya has not been under her tutelage, she's the final MUO Miss USA, and it honestly seems like she hasn't been training at all. She's a mess. Every now and then a Miss USA flops, and Asya has all the markings of one who will. It's almost as if she isn't even there, she's so invisible. The girl can speak and has a pretty face but she's lacking pretty much every where else, plus I know the MUO doesn't want to work with a Trump supporter. Of course it's more than likely she'll place because she's Miss USA, but if I had to bet which of the queens from 2011 to current day would be most in danger of flopping, I'd pick Asya.
Wait she is under IMG still? Dammit! Wish I knew that before
Yeah Crystle has control over Miss USA starting with the 2021 batch. I think Asya visited her academy in Texas once but other than that she's still the final IMG queen, the first Crystle Stewart queen will be the 2021 winner.
Well nevermind what I said then HAHAHAHA she even dissapeared for days
Yeah she is an absolute mess, I have no idea what was going on there. She literally vanished, I had not seen her at all until today at that dinner with Paula. It's almost as if she's not even trying. If any Miss USA is going to clap it'll be this one.
People in Latin America are really mad at the situation because we know she will probably still place and its very sad.

Hmmmm...there’s a bit inconsistency as to which criteria you used to pick the girls (i.e. whether you gravitated more to physical beauty or communication skills). I think it’s more of a personal preference or sentimental favorites. Or maybe, it was a hot picks that was not posted on time.
I say this because how could you have left out CAMBODIA, NEPAL (and even LAOS, MYANMAR & SINGAPORE), these girls are much better in communication skills from Indonesia and Vietnam who have hard time getting their message across. Add to that, the girls I mentioned are more beautiful.
Also with the European group, Iceland, Poland, Finland, Great Britain. Especially Poland, the girl can walk and talk!
then I see Italy on your list.
Its 3 am here but I'm gonna answer this quick before I can elaborate when awake. There's several girls that I wouldn't put on this list if we didn't have a continental placement, there's plenty of favorites I had to cut to make way for women I think MUO wants in that Top21. I don't like Colombia, Canada, USA (As soon as I posted I saw her arrival "look"), not feeling Indonesia, Philippines or France all that, I'm not a fan of my own girl, ect. But I know that all those girls will be pretty attractive to IMG, if I had my way Id put my alterante plus like 4 girls you mentioned. This list is still a prediction of the 21 girls I think have the biggest chance of getting in this era. I also added a personal rank of those 21 and if you notice most of the girls I said I dont want or like are at the bottom of the list.
But I'll explain it better when I'm awake
It doesn't matter whether you are a fan of your girl or not when you place her as 2nd. It shows clear bias and quite typical. I like your girl and I won't have any issues if she wins but is she a clear favourite? No. I don't think MUO has placed her as 2nd in their hot picks list. Your girl is more like Wendy Fitzwilliam. She is mature and responsible but facially average so she will only win if she performs well. Not because she has caught MUO's eye even before she starts the pageant activities.

Obviously we'll all need to wait til prelims to get a clearer picture of what will happen, but I think you could very much be onto something (despite my feelings that the organization will be hesitant to crown 3 South Africans in 4 years, if Natasha kills it that won't matter)

She is Tramoya, and she will place.
Paulina is so far from Laura.

With the Miss Universe season now raging, I'm delighted to see and agree with your 2020 forecast. I see Mexico and Puerto Rico holding hands at the end--they exude the authority, genuineness, presence of an IMG woman. (Mexico got me with that video of her spinning and dribbling the basketball. This is one street-smart gal.)
This is why I don't see Canada up there-- she comes across to me as someone so needy of gaining a sense of belonging. (Her costume today gave me a "Put Up or Get Out" message--something I can't ever equate with the Canadian nation she represents.). She's gorgeous and commanding attention--but there's this nagging, unrelatable thing about her.
Where do you see Singapore and Nicaragua? Singapore is so modern and chic, and Nicaragua exudes such likable charm. I'd like to see how far they will go with the prelims.
Geeyourhair wrote:Okay I have to take back what I said here before. After the Preliminary, and after seeing some of the candidates being interviewed...I can say now that the one to beat is Puerto Rico. I am still not a fan of her Auntiesh look but the girl is just so consistent and her presence can not be denied. Colombia might be there too because she is also doing good but I do not still see South Africa in the top 3.

Oma-san wrote:It is interesting that the popular contestants most of whom were strong wore such unflattering gowns. And Nepal is not strong when it comes to performance. Colombia is not attractive. She shouldn't place. India also, after a strong SS wore a gown that didn't compliment her at all. Philippines was not confident. Philippines can't win with this half-Indian. She is no where near the league of the 6 legends of Binibining from the 2010s. A morena girl seems to have more drive and resilience a la Janine Tugonon. Puerto Rico was great and her gown lovely. If she wins, she will be a great advocate for Miss Universe to show young girls that you don't have to be facially beautiful to win Miss Universe. Her performance was great but there's no guarantee. That's it! She may win or may not. It all depends on the judges and MUO whether they'll see her.
