Miss Asia Pageant 2009 Semi-Finals

(A very star-struck moment with Pang Gor)

I attended an event a couple weeks ago as a supporting Ana R who was a guest judge at the Miss Asia Pageant. I’ve never attended any pageants and its just one of those things that I’ll never understand. How ever I enjoy watching the courageous girls who are willing to stand before an audience and show their goodies.

This was a full-blown event and I was surprised it was just the semi-finals. Among the top 20, there were some clear winners who have poise and have the look/package. The MCs of the evening were hilarious and I’m glad I know enough canto to enjoy their jokes and comments too. One of the highlights of the evening was probably meeting the hilarious Hong Kong comedian who I grew up watching when I was living in Malaysia as a kid. I never really get starstruck but I just had to take a picture with him and email my mom (which I have yet to do). They call him Pang Gor and out of all the celebs that I’d want to meet in HK, I was so happy I even got a picture with him.

I think the finals are around the corner and I’ve got my money on a few of them. Can’t wait to see who will win!
