Sorry guys there’s no photos of the incident. 😃 Short skirts and no panties is just skanky IMHO. I don’t want to sit on a chair after someone with no underwear. All that sticky luv juice all over it. 😛 Gross. Besides how do you know if her ho ha is smiling or winking? 😉 [http://www.nydailynews.com/lifestyle/fashion/2011/09/09/2011-09-09\_miss\_universe\_contestant\_reminded\_to\_wear\_underwear\_while\_in\_public\_report.html?r=news](http://www.nydailynews.com/lifestyle/fashion/2011/09/09/2011-09-09_miss_universe_contestant_reminded_to_wear_underwear_while_in_public_report.html?r=news) > [@](#): > > A Miss Universe contestant is in trouble with pageant officials for showing up at events without underwear. > > Contest bigwigs have warned Colombia’s Catalina Robayo to stop making appearances in tiny skirts with nothing on underneath. > > “Colombia had to be spoken to and told she needed to wear underpants as what she was doing was totally inappropriate,” a source told Fox News. “People have been pretty upset by it; there have been photos and media appearances where she has completely had her crotch out.” ---

\*You know you don’t have to act with me, Steve. You don’t have to say anything, and you don’t have to do anything. Not a thing. Oh, maybe just whistle. You know how to whistle, don’t you, Steve?

I also understand that the conteset returned the bikinis (from Catalina)-they were too skimpy! What a stupid decision-the swimsuit competition is always the most crucal for me! Anybody know what the sits looked like? ---

In that matter, **ralph** , as I understand the folks at Miss America gave up and decided to go for skimpy, but \*their \*audience is just Americans. The Trump organization knows that the real audience for Miss Universe is in more traditional countries. > [@Darryl\_Lict](#): > > What the hell is with the multiple white spaces? One is good as ten!
