Miss Canada!
Miss Canada, Natalie Glebova, won the Miss Universe contest tonight. I haven't checked for a few days, but last I knew, she was the betting favorite. Here she is, during the swimsuit competition:
Miss Canada was the only non-Latin American finalist; the others were Miss Miss Dominican Republic, Miss Mexico, Miss Puerto Rico and Miss Venezuela. So it was a New World sweep.
I wasn't able to live-blog the competition tonight, as I was on an airplane en route to Atlanta for CNN's annual meeting with its international correspondents and affiliates. I'll be on a program tomorrow afternoon, and will report anything interesting that happens.
