I was keeping my fingers crossed for Bianca Manalo to win the crown of Miss Universe 2009. Sadly, she didn't make it to the top 15.

I was sitting on my couch, eating twister fries from McDonalds, while watching the show of beauty and perfection. But Heidi Montag ruined my day by performing at the 58th Miss Universe 2009 held in Bahamas.

They could have chosen a better performer than Heidi Montag. So, I changed channel (from ABS-CBN to HBO to Disney Channel and to other cable channels) and forgot to switch back to the live coverage of Miss Universe 2009. Because of Heidi Montag's performance, I wasn’t able to winnow Miss Venezuela from other contestants. Heidi Montag performing live at the Miss Universe 2009 was definitely a big mistake (in my perception).

Anyway, Stefania Fernandez of Venezuela—yet again-- walked away with the title of Miss Universe 2009. Miss Dominican Republic (Ada Aimee De la Cruz) took the first runner-up prize, while Miss Kosovo (Gona Dragusha) gained the second runner-up throne. Miss Australia (Rachael Finch) and Miss Puerto Rico (Mayra Matos Perez) finished as third runner-up and fourth runner up, respectively.

The Miss Photogenic title was given to Miss Thailand (Chutima Durongdej) while Miss Congeniality was awarded to Miss China (Wang Jingyao). And for Miss Philippines—better luck next time. :D
