Runaway Beauty Queen

So there’s this Burmese – or Myanmar, if you prefer – beauty queen named May Myat Noe, and she won the Miss Asia Pacific World beauty contest in Seoul a few months ago. And the South Korean organizers, who had funded her breast enhancement surgery, declared her “rude” and stripped her of the crown (possibly because she wouldn’t let them strip her of anything else, dunno). Then she takes off back to her home country with the literal, physical crown, worth somewhere in the neighborhood of US$100,000 to $200,000. Story here.

Excerpt: “**We thought she should be more beautiful … so as soon as she arrived we sent her to the hospital to operate on her breasts,” he said.

“It’s our responsibility,” he said, adding that sponsors picked up the $10,000 tab, as they have for past winners. “If she has no good nose, then maybe, if she likes, we can operate on her nose. If it’s breasts, then breasts.”**

Purely in the interests of research, here are some more photos of May Myat Noe, not indecent but spoilered due to the skimpiness of some of the bathing suits:

You go, girl!

Umm, Sam - from the article :

(Bolding added)

Kim is the director of media for the pageant. She is quite beautiful. Nice-looking crown too. I’d certainly try to keep it - for clubbing and such.
Article also said she’s going to give a press conference sometime in the near future.

Also, not to nitpick the article but I would say a “ten-day visit” does not “quickly” turn into 3 months. It probably takes around 80 days or so to do that.

Goddamn! They make women’s shoes in her size? What are those? 16’s?

Seriously. She has big feet.

Hot, big sexy feet. :smiley:

But she’s pretty, so let her keep the crown.

She has feet? My eyes never got that far.

I may have misinterpreted the article a tad. :o

Still a good story though.

You know it as Myanmar but it will always be Burma to me.

“We thought she should be more beautiful … so as soon as she arrived we sent her to the hospital to operate on her breasts,” (Kim) said.

“It’s our responsibility,” he said, adding that sponsors picked up the $10,000 tab, as they have for past winners. “If she has no good nose, then maybe, if she likes, we can operate on her nose. If it’s breasts, then breasts.”

My heart melts at how sweet it was for this man to offer to operate on this teenager, for free, so that she could be more like the ideal woman he has pictured in his mind.

It’s a real shame that they don’t offer surgery to enlarge his small little mind.

Thank you! Word.

You’re one of those people responsible for Google autocomplete suggesting “feet” for every search on every woman’s name, aren’t you?

At the risk of generalizing, she looks sort of Western-ish to my eyes… parentage, or was she under the knife for more than the boobs?

I must be getting old. I didn’t think she was wearing anything under that suit.

Perfect! It made me laugh out loud.

Her feet don’t look an bigger than the other girls feet in the group shot. At best she’s a size 8 or so. All the girls feet look a bit large because they have very slender ankles and calves.
