THIS PAGEANT IS ON

IT IS A GLOBAL ISSUE

I am at the Sheraton Hotel in Beltsville MD. Got to the city at 4am on Thursday. The drive was not bad, I had my bloody accent reduction cds and that of my new nubian lover John Legend keeping me company. I am sure people driving past were like who is this crazy girk talking to herself.

Anyways I have met and SIZED up the competition. Just like Ludacris said, African girls are the best in the world without a doubt. We have 'Pari-Hollywood-Super-Model-Chick', 'South-AFrican-Erika' etc.
The one that I have to keep my eye on is Ms. Ivory Coast. I usually do not use overly qualifying adjectives to describe other how beautiful other women are, all I usually say is, yeah she's cute or pretty. But this time I have top say that this chick is one fine dime and she speaks french too. Yah...I up against someone who says 'oui oui madame, je pense que je suis fatigue.' TOUGH. She is the face of lux in the francophone countries, is also an actress (their Genevieve Nnaji), an absolute barbie and very bubbly. Typical model chick. Gotta love those. South AFrica is a star on the soap opera Generations and her voice is melodious. Ms Zambia and Ms Kenya are also LOOKERS. And what is up with everybody have a 'book'. I want a 'book' with super-model pictures too. We'll have to work on that when I get back to Tarheel Country. Genevieve bera watch out...that Lux contract of hers...hmh...that sucker is about to get the pink slip and the trump snake altogether.

But guess who I met yesterday...hmh.. JIM IYKE....my friends Ndidi, Singto and Ayisola know the inside joke on that one so you know I just had to take a picture with the guy, and It has nothing to with having a crush on nobody ok, but 'I shant' speak a word.' Anyways, I just woke up, I have to go and practice my spoken word performance and the dance routine, don't want to be caught sleeping. And since my outfits are according to my wardrobe meter, C-rated, I have to put in a bit more effort. We gotta watch out for Ms. Paris and all the 6 feet tall and skinny girls running around here. Thank God for BCBG Katchen pumps and the likes, that's a good 4 inches extra to work with.

Meanwhile, I trust my nigerians in the crowd will raise the roof for me and sway the judges a little bit. Regardless I am have a blast. Pageants are so much fun, not the stereotype we all qualify it them with. I am also watching out for potential sponsors because I want to also do Ms. NC-USA. I guess this is my new fun thing to do, but after I turn 27, I would be expired and retired from all this so I have to think on my feet, what to do , can't do that chewing gum now.

Hmmm... Still nothing. I'm surprised that there is no winner listed even on the Miss Africa International Site. There is no news of it anywhere..I googled it..still nothing. Seems like there would be some info out there by now..

The pageant went well and our sister Adaure did not win.
There was some kind of drama that ensued and I will hold off on the nature of the drama for her to give an accurate account.

hey we want the drama and this is the internet age, information at the speed of light. Did NEPA or PHCN move to America....

Okay Adaure did not win but who did win. This is all I would like to know. It seems so strange that the winner is no where to be found online or by word of mouth.

A little teaser for you all.
That is because there is no winner as of yet.

More info
From the official website

Thank you for attending and supporting the Miss Africa International pageant.

The contestants put on a stellar performance and the world saw that Africa is truly beautiful. The scores were misread and it is only fair that they be recalculated.

Until we do a recount, we do not know who Miss Africa International 2005 is. We have held off making any additional announcements until each of the judges verify their scores and an independent accounting firm tabulates the judges' scores.

Please bear with us and we will be announcing the winner shortly.
