I'm sorry to say that she looked every inch the blonde bimbo I had expected. What can expect though if its a beauty pageant? When asked what she wanted to do she gave the answer that she couldn't 'wait to travel the world' and represent Australia in the international Miss Universe 2012. So original....
On the plus side her voice wasn't the whiny, 'I'm so cute' sort that so many models put on. Unfortunately I found little originality about her and it leads me to wondering what the criteria for winning a beauty pageant actually is. Obviously all the girls who enter it must be beautiful, skinny and have long hair and tanned skin so what makes a girl like Renae Ayris stand out? I certainly didn't pick it during her Sunrise interview.
Well according to the Herald Sun 'Ms Ayris impressed judges, including actor Vince Colosimo, designer Wayne Cooper and Dancing with the Stars choreographer Jason Coleman, in her glittering silver and white evening gown and purple bikini.'
So, it wasn't Renae who was the winner, it was what she was wearing? That's what it seems more like to me. If someone else had worn her clothes would they have won instead? Many beauty pageants claim they choose their winners on 'inner beauty' as well as their good looks but I didn't see any mention of that. Surely if we are choosing someone to represent Australia we want them to be able to speak well and have an attractive personality. For now I'm still at a loss as to why beauty pageants are run and what makes a winner.
