For the second year in a row, Miss USA slipped and fell during evening gown competition at the Miss Universe pageant and is sure to become a YouTube hit.
Dayana Mendoza of Venezuela has been crowned Miss Universe 2008.And you can bet this one will also be getting plenty of attention.
Mendoza and three other Latin Americans women made the final five at Sunday's contest. The four other finalists were runner-up Miss Colombia Tailana Vargas, Miss Dominican Republic Marianne Cruz Gonzalez, Miss Mexico Elisa Najera, and Miss Russia Vera Krasova.
An elated Dayana Mendoza received the crown from her predecessor, Riyo Mori of Japan, and then prepared to meet a gaggle of reporters. Miss Venezuela, 22, was once kidnapped in her homeland and says the experience taught her to remain poised under pressure.
Tension got under the skin of Crystle Steward of Texas, the second Miss USA in a row to fall down during the the evening gown competition at the Miss Universe pageant. She was in the top 10 but tripped on the train of her bejeweled evening gown as she made her entrance.
During the 2007 Miss Universe contest in Mexico City, Miss USA Rachel Smith also tumbled during the evening gown competition and became an unintended star on You Tube, where the video was shown over and over again.
Speaking of attention, feast your eyes upon the lovely Ms. Mendoza.
