I really feel a beauty should be beyond just good looks and bikini wearing body. It should be so much more rounded. In this era where women empowerment is actively promoted… Beauty pageant really need to grow as well… Women is not just looks and body, they are more then that. They can also set good example for future kids and send positive message…
Doubt that there is a chance of winning at that height. The shortest is 5 ft 3, I am surprised that she made it this far into the competition.
The title made me laugh so hard I had to add a comment……….Just because she graduated from Columbia U, and works as a software engineer, hardly makes her a highly/qualified contestant……….She is not exactly a beauty to start off with, and hardly has the bod-specs to even model anything……….Just a typical and average ABC type of girl………..Period!
At least she’s a girl?
If tvb like to find another most ugly miss HK… so go for her
Well, I don’t think she’s ugly. Sometimes the brains count too. I think she’s just too short to win. They r always looking for the tall ones to compete internationally
