Though I love Jennifer Hawkins and I think she's one of the best Miss Universe ever, I would have love to see Shandi win in Ecuador as well just to see her jumping the same same way again lol.
My Rank of the last 9 miss usa in the past decade 2000-2009 1. Shandi Finnessey-Missouri-2004 2. Kandice Kruger-Texas-2001 3. Tara Conner-Kentucky-2006 4. Rachel Smith-Tennessee-2007 5. Crystle Stewary-Texas-2008 6. Kristen Dalton-North Carolina-2009 7. Chelsea Cooley-North Carolina-2005 8. Lynette Cole-Tennessee-2000 9. Susie Castillo-Massachusettes-2003 10. Shauntay Hinton-District of Columbia-2002
i met Shandi in February 2007 when i told her i been on Playmania with her she sat down and we had a very nice chat. She was so sweet and wonderful and so beautiful. Shandi is awesome.
OMG I love wat Susie said in her final walk and I met her she's from my hometown in Massachusetts she's really nice and she signed her new book for me and i got a free copy she really has a kind soul and we're both Dominican she's my inspiration and my hero she shows me that you CAN be from a tiny town in Massachusetts and be something big!!!!!!!! God Bless you Susie que Dios te bendiga!!!
This Miss USA really deserved it. She looked even better in the Miss Universe 2004 pageant with blonder hair! The Australian, Jennifer Hawkins, won the contest but Shandi would've been perfect as Miss Universe as well!
Can't find a single flaw in Shandi. I can certainly echo with alefhorny's comment. Now, as a NC resident, I am not complaining that Miss NC won the 2009 title!
I believe Miss USA 2009 is going to be as tight of a race like 2004. Any of the top 5 could of represented USA at Miss Universe 2004 well! Shandi still did top the cake at the end!
she was the greatest miss usa and l wished she won but jennifer took the crown I liked usa because she has the brain jennifer always wanted to go on and wear a bikini and try to be as hot as she can
ive heard that donald trump had something wth jnfr hwkis and that´s the reason why she won the miss universe pageant..is it true?..besides..shandy knew jenfr would win before she was crowned..how?
finally after seeing 300 miss universe 2004 videos i found out why shandi didnt won the miss universe peagant..the answer is..actitude, she was to shy on the runway ...(sorry if my grammar sucks im not north american)
shandi was the barbie doll in the miss universe 2004 together with miss australia....both of them deserved the miss universe 2004 title but only one should win hehehehe
the best was the first runner up, she is extremely more beautifull than that miss USA. She is so tipical, blonde, claire eyes...the first runner up is tipical latin woman. The latins are the most beautifull women in the world.
If the latinos are so great...why does every latin Miss Universe get FAT?! Alicia Machado, FAT COW, Denise Quinos FAT COW, Zuleyka Rivera FAT COW. Blonde hair, blue eyes IS beautiful and you feel very ineferior by it. You shuld. Even barbie was blonde..not some fat ass latina! and the first runner up is ALL AMERICAN bitch!
gosh ure an idiot whoever the fuck you are, and if miss usa's are so great then explain to me why latinamericans since miss universe started in 1952 have won more crowns than any other region in the world, and y most winners from any country are brunettes with brown eyes? ya that sure explains y everyone who is not blonde feels inferior, dumbass
Yeah, like Tara Conner, right?? What a role model! Drunk and drug addicted!! Our Miss Teen South Carolina!! Blonde hair, blue eyes and stupid like hell!!!
I can tell from your name, julijardimdimwitRODRIGUEZGAUTERIZ you clean toilets for a living..so your opinion doesn't count. Get some proactiv for your Miss MEHIICOOOS and some class for your uncivilized nation that BOO'S at people (what are you still in the stone ages?) no wonder your people flee from your country and risk their lives to get out of that hell hole..don't blame them.Good luck at Miss World and Universe next year...you'll need it!
i just want to know what the fuck is your problem are u some kind of retarded pig wrestling hick? it seems like u have it out for enyone who is not american, thank god not even in USA they take hicks seriously because then this country would be more stupid than it is.
Best Miss USA of all time...and sadly we'll most likely never get one like her again. CLASS, POISE, GRACE, BEAUTY and sincere. Should have won Miss Universe but made a wonderful Miss USA for America.
Rachel Smith's the ugliest Miss USA I've ever seen, and I never will. She doesn't have the looks, nor the brains, and she fuckin' slipped on the walkway. What could be worse? Seriously speaking, I was surprised she was chosen as Miss USA in the first place.
she is not the bes lookin, but shes probably my favorite Miss USA, i mean look at tara conner.Susie Castillo was ok. it was actualy an accident wen she sliped, at least she stood up n acted as if nothing hapened. Accidents happen, she didnt even care wen da mexicans booed her, many wuld go red in da face n run away crying. Rhode island wuld b a gud miss usa. but evrybodys got difrent opinions....rachel smith is beautiful in her own way.
Well, I admire the way she reacted after her fall. But other than that, and compared to Shandi Finnessey, nothing much can be said about her. No offense though. But you can't say that she could run away just because some Mexicans booed her, no one would do it. The obvious reaction's to ignore them.
I'm still sticking to it. Shandi Finnessey is the best Miss USA I've ever seen, and probably never will. Pity she didn't win the crown in Miss Universe.
it was shandi's to win. so beautiful. nice final 5. give credit to oklahoma for making it that far. looks like she didn't even know where she was or what was going on.
So many years in Miss Universe, Miss USA makes the cut because of the sash factor. But in 2004 WOW! Shandi is one of my all time favs along with Julie Hayek 1983. Shandi was honestly a Miss USA that I believe was that "one" that I have been waiting for, for years. She could compete with the Venezuelas, Indias, etc. even if she did not have that "USA" sash. GO SHANDI!
Just met Shandi. Could not believe how beautiful she was and very very sweet. She said that she benefited more from miss usa than miss universe and will be on Dancing with the stars!
I just met Shandi tonight. I couldn't believe it was her. She was the most beautiful person I had ever seen up close. Could not have been a sweeter, more sincere person. Said she benefited more from being miss usa than miss universe and said that she was recruited for Dancing with the stars!
Shandi is my favorite Miss USA ever! Amanda her 1st Runner-up became my friend during the Miss Earth Pageant last November, like Shandi she's also very down to earth and friendlyshe did represented the USA well...
i love MIssouri! even Miss South Carolina who represent USA just last month for Miss Earth 2006.. she was one of the top 16 finalist.... congratulations! and she was beautiful during the introduction of delgates..
Did all you people know of her before her crowning..? I first heard of her when she started her career at GSN..! Great video, though. I love that she didn't react like the typical Miss with the crying and all that. SHE JUMPED UP AND DOWN IN HEELS! Good for her.
Shandi has been my favorite Miss of all time. I knew she was going to win that year and I truly wished she had also become Miss Universe. Shandi is the ultimate beauty queen.
Though I love Jennifer Hawkins and I think she's one of the best Miss Universe ever, I would have love to see Shandi win in Ecuador as well just to see her jumping the same same way again lol.
