rxpharm Posted May 9, 2012 Share Posted May 9, 2012 Had the pleasure of meeting FM, 4:17 at the contest - he was just one row in front of me up in the balcony, with Sonya. I had my special panel (my gf, plus 2 of her friends) with me for the contest. They said that the group of contestants were some of the most beautiful in a while. So without further ado, here we go! Anyway, on with the contest - there were 30 contestants, all had to be Thai lbs, did not matter if they were preop or postop, and had to be between 18-25 years of age. The first photo is of Ai Haruna, a Japanese postop lb who won Miss International Queen 2009. The next 3 photos are the 30 contestants in their opening introduction to the audience. Miss Tiffany 2011 is doing a cabaret number in photo 5 A popular Thai gg violinist is in photo 6, but I didn't catch her name Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rxpharm Posted May 9, 2012 Author Share Posted May 9, 2012 More of the 30 - the theme of the contest was Gatsby, and the cocktail dress was the opening dress style. My special panel had no. 25 as their favourite - as she is friends with them. More of the 30 in cocktail dress. I was in the first balcony, so unfortunately the contestants were often looking down from stage to catch the judges' eyes in the first row. Also there was a clear glass partition at the front of the balcony, so some of the shots will show this, my apologies. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bumblebee Posted May 9, 2012 Share Posted May 9, 2012 Always a pleasure to see your photos of these events Rx. The tanned one in the middle with the white head band stands out for me in the last photo, just something different to the general porcelain look I guess. Keep them coming.

rxpharm Posted May 10, 2012 Author Share Posted May 10, 2012 I had a battery change, so missed a couple of things. No. 12, Nicha Chaiyapreuk as previously picked out by BB, won the best cocktail dress award. Then the 2 MCs - according to my special panel they are a couple of popular Thai TV hosts. The evening gown parades starts with the red gown no. 2, Sopida Rachanon, then in the white gown, no. 1, Nisamanee Lertworapong. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FanOfTS Posted May 11, 2012 Share Posted May 11, 2012 "The tanned one in the middle with the white head band stands out for me in the last photo, just something different to the general porcelain look" Yup, BB, you and me both --- she was the top looker for guys like us but being "tanned" here means never winning ... BUT! she was first runner-up so that is "progress"(?), I guess. [u know, she looks like Noi (currently of 'Hi-Boss') could have looked if she hadn't gone down the slippery paths of the crystal forest ... ] 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rxpharm Posted May 11, 2012 Author Share Posted May 11, 2012 FanOfTS, my panel said she gave excellent answers for both her impromptu speeches, so they started cheering for her too!

rxpharm Posted May 16, 2012 Author Share Posted May 16, 2012 Yes, BB, no. 12 is quite sexy! I was sitting in the 2nd row of the balcony, I estimate I was about 30-40 meters away from the stage. I had to use my 75-300 mm zoom, usually at 300 mm, along with my big flash. More group shots, waiting for the announcements of the special awards.

rxpharm Posted May 17, 2012 Author Share Posted May 17, 2012 Siamsam if you were asking who that is playing the violin - she is a popular Thai gg violinst, but I didn't catch her name, and she wasn't listed in the program. Now for the special awards: No. 26, Ruttanun Seelawanich, wins Miss Congeniality, the kiss of death award - has never won the main title for MTU. 2nd, 3rd and 4th photos: no. 2, Sopida Rachanon winning Miss Photogenic 5th & 6th photo: no. 18 Kamala Potisan, winner of Best Costume (evening gown) 7th photo: no. 1, Nisamanee Lertworapong - Miss Kiss Sexy Star 2012 Also some video of the Miss Sexy Kiss competition that was held on May 2 at Central Pattaya Festival Mall.

4:17 Posted May 24, 2012 Share Posted May 24, 2012 Awesome images Rx. Many of them look like you were shooting from the balcony -- was that you sitting behind me?

rxpharm Posted June 2, 2012 Author Share Posted June 2, 2012 The final 10's impromptu speeches. No. 12 did the best job and she had a huge cheer after she had finished hers. The contestants choose an envelope, which has the question they must answer. Each question is different. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rxpharm Posted June 8, 2012 Author Share Posted June 8, 2012 The final 10 go back stage to change and wait for the judges' decision. The next segment features Miss Tiffanys 2000 - 2011 being features. I have to say Miss Tiffany 2000 still looks ravashing, and she would be around 30 years old.
