I read somewhere that Miss America's status as a beauty queen might be gotten rid of because of her alleged scandal involiving sex with celebrities, partying and drinking.
Call me naive but I was kind of shocked to know the news because deep down I hope winners of these contest are pure.
I hate Paris Hilton. She would be nothing without her family's business. I wouldn't want to stay at Hilton hotel now I know she is just a spoiled daughter of the owner of the famous hotel chain. FYI there are some Hilton hotels in Japan, too. I wonder why Hilton chain doesn't go bankrupt because Paris Hilton has bad press.
There is similar sisters in Japan. They are called 叶姉妹 or Kanoh sisters. 叶 is their family name. 姉妹means sisters in Japanese. They are older than Hilton sisters but similar in that they are famous just because they are rich. They don't have any special talent but they are often on TV and appear on CM.
In case of Paris sisters, it's widely known that thier family runs hotel business but in case of Kanoh sisiters, what business their family runs or whatever is not revealed. They are just showing off gorgeous dresses and jewels and such and that. You can see them here. www.youtube.com/watch?v=rugt1ccqoZc
I think it's odd that they have them on TV and treat them as if they were movie stars or actors or something just because they are rich and want to live in show business.
I just rambled on. :)
Are you interested in prticipating in a beauty contest or something, Magibon?
