Japanese Newspaper Accidentally Runs Miss Korea Photo Instead Of Miss Japan
June 1st, 2007 by James
[Miss Korea (Left) and Miss Japan (Right)....or is it the other way around? (Or is it Miss Thailand, as many have said?)]
The Japanese Newspaper Nikan Sports has apologized after it mistakenly ran an photo of Miss Korea instead of Miss Japan in it’s May 30th article on the Miss Universe Pageant. The paper explained that its staff had mixed up the two women, who were both wearing the same swimsuit and had similar hairstyles in the AP photo set of the contest. Oops!

Oh Jesus, now there’s going to be an international incident. At least it didn’t happen the other way around – it’d paralyze Korea with apoplectic fits for months.
But now we all know why women can’t be seen in identical garments to other women. Really, what’s happening to standards? There was a time when a nie young lady would never be seen on stage in the same bikini and high heels as another girl. Next thing you know, they’re all going to be pregnant and on drugs.

My mother said, ‘All those women, regardless of nationality/race/skin colour, tend to have very similar makeup on! You know, the really ugly black eyeshadow, panda-eyed rubbish.’
I agree with her.
As for what I think, I don’t think these ‘Miss’ whatevers convey a sense of intellect.
Not to mention, these women look way too fake and robotic.
I’m not asking for medically obese people or people with sloppy clothing on.
But can’t they have diversity?
You know, women with different body shapes and sizes.
I’m sick of seeing only tall, thin women with big breasts and panda eyed makeup hailed as beautiful
Why can’t there be shorter people?
Why can’t there be smaller breasted women?
Not to mention, even though I’m a female, I’ve seen prettier women on the streets of Japan than Miss Japan.

It is because Nikkan Sports has a lot of Korean-Japanese staffs?
Anyway, There seemed no Asian judges other than Chinese/Korean half-blood.
There was no Japan related judges as follows.

Most Americans still have a hatred for Japanese, even American Japanese, but not Germans or German Americans. In regards to that they blame the Nazi party? Most are brainwashed, even regarding Christianity! 2000 plus years, and they are still killing people. That goes for all religions that stem from the Jewih religion! Miss Japan deserved to win, after all, so many of the Latin girls are half plastic surgery, she was a natural beauty, like it should be. Let us also be reminded that beauty contest first started in Japan a hundred years ago! Most of the inventions claimed by China came from Japan, thei land of the rising sun! Great work Riyo Mori, and to the last Miss Universe, smile and don’t pout, you ugly fat slob!
