Did you catch the 2010 Miss Universe pageant that aired live last night on NBC? The pageant is one of the most publicized beauty contests in the world with 600 million viewers worldwide.
For years, each Miss Universe contestant has had to portray a very wholesome yet likeable image, talk about promoting world peace, have a great desire to participate in various charitable organizations to make the world a better place.... blah blah blah!!
Times have changed! What a difference a few years make! While there are strict rules that still apply, the pageant's image has changed. The promo pics for the contestants this year caused a lot of controversy. For 2010's Miss Universe promo shots, each contestant was to wear body paint. The competition got a little risque when the women were allowed to go topless in the photos. There was no real nudity other than seeing the ladies backs. Fox 411 claimed that the competition has sunk to a "new low" by emulating Playboy for posing topless with body paint. Really Fox? Get off your high moral horse!! Do you live in 2010? I don't have to look too far to find some type of nudity from various outlets!
Here are some of the 'highly' controversial images!
