Oh my.

That was atrocious.

uhhh, wow.

I wonder if she is able to locate the US on a world map. Perhaps, that would have been a better question!

[Flynn]

Pathetic!

[madeintaiwan]

Sweet!! That was awesome!! Apparently she doesn't know where America is either. She should have just broke out the superfreak instead....

:thud:

What makes this funny is how seriously she stumbles through her answer.

It was bad.

Yeah, and she won if I am not mistaken. She said, something along the lines of none of them were her role models, but she would say Paris Hilton because she did the right thing in the end.

I did watch about 5 minutes of this pageant..... um "scholarship program", isn't that what they are called??

My darling 6 year olds can find the US on a map, but what does that have to do with South Africa or Asia or Iraq?

I guess she figured that if she threw in some keywords, the judges would think she knew what she was talking about. I wonder what her parents were thinking while listening to her response....
