Its getting ridiculous

Titleholders per region

22 Latin America
13 Europe
11 English speaking Americas
8 Eastern Asia
4 Africa
3 Oceania (Australia and New Zealand)
2 Western Asia

Why? Now If you have a conspiracy hold it, pretend for example the contest is actually legit,(I myself don't know if its legit or not) why are Latin American women always winning?

I thought since it was in Russia, a woman from Eastern Europe would win since they have the home advantage, but no, again Venezuela won. I cant believe she won. I would have thought Costa Rica, United Kingdom, Switzerland.

By the way, all their answers, including Venezuela's, are non-responsive.

For example, questions: "What can be done to get more women into politicians?" Answer: "Women today are strong, educated, and can do anything they want. Thank you!" Um...what? But, you didn't answer the question at all!

I think a much better question is why does Venezuela wins so often?

I understand that Miss Universe is to Venezuela as the super bowl is to the US, but there has to be another reason why they win so much. And yes, the women are beautiful but I think something funny is happening behind the scene.

Outdated and irrelevant competition. A lot of the women in the Miss Universe don't look very natural. It will slowly die a natural death.

The contestants are state sponsored, well trained, and modified by some very good plastic surgeons.

It is similar to state sponsored Olympic athletes, where young children are selected and trained for years specially to compete, as they do in China and Russia.

Yeah that was going to be a question lol

It seem like Venezuela is the default winner if the judges don't know how to pick.

Venezuela is sort of like a Mitt Romney in the republican primary, not to offend anyone.

Here's the answer....

Venezuela has a very high cosmetic surgery rate

Because they look ""exxotical"" or racially ambiguous.

Unlike previous Venezulean contestant winners, i think this year's winner wasn't all that attractive.
