It just hit me.

Last month I attended a business reception in Tokyo. My eye (and almost everyone else's) was caught by a very tall Japanese woman in a cocktail dress. I tried not to stare.

I later learned that she was Japan's representative to the Miss Universe pageant. Turns out, I have been in the same room with this woman. She certainly stood out in a room full of 50 year old Japanese executives.

Hmmm tough to say.....To be honest, I can't honestly say that I remember her face. I imagine now that you will tell me that the woman who won is really 5' 4" so it couldn't have been her.

Early in the evening, I saw a relatively tall and slender Japanese woman out of the corner of my eye. I thought to myself that she was much better looking than the small number of other women in the room.

As I was leaving the reception I saw her"Miss Japan" sash. I didn't want to ogle her, so I played it cool.

Two weeks later, I saw a fellow who had also attended. He said that the best thing of the whole evening was meeting Miss Japan for the Miss Universe contest. I then remembered that the Japanese rep for the pagent had been at the event.

There's a reason she's Miss Universe... Miss. F'ing. Universe. She is the epitome of the perfect woman. You can't argue with the title... again, she's MISS. F'ING. UNIVERSE. Thank you, I rest my case.

So how much longer do we have to wait for those "inappropriate pictures" scandal thing to happen to this one?

Fortunately we don't have to worry about anything like that because Japanese women never do anything inappropriate (unlike Paris Hilton, Tara Conner, and other less scrupulous girls).

Slovak Republic girl blows her away, imo. Damn.

And miss Korea is soooo much hotter. I'm kinda confused over miss japan winning this, she seems rather conventional. She's probably smoking hot in person though.

I think Ms Japan belongs in the over-rated beauty thread.

Yup! 100% smoking hot. As in, please don't touch - you might burn yourself!

Lucy Liu belongs in that thread. Miss Japan (aka Miss Yooooniverse) is a perfect 10.

Normally, I agree with your taste in women, but for this one, I'm sorry that we'll just have to disagree. She just looks too plain, especially compared with the other girls in the photos that are next to her.
