HOT FAVORITES FOR MISS UNIVERSE 2009 (5th list)
(Based on Mykiru's scores and Fun Poll Results)
As of August 17, 2009
Venezuela may have its second consecutive Miss Universe winner this year, because its representative Stefania Fernandez is showing a lot of spirit and energy on this year's competition.
Yes, definitely it's possible. In Miss Universe, anything is actually possible.
During the recently concluded swimsuit and evening gown preliminaries, the 18-year-old 5'8 stunner from Venezuela was one of those who showed an amazing, at least above-average, performance alongside the candidates from Dominican Republic, Australia, France, Puerto Rico, Kosovo and a few more.
As early as now, I must say that Stefania should already have a guaranteed placement in the Top 15 and moving on to the next round will all depend on her swimsuit performance during the finals on August 23.
