Mariana Valente won the title of Miss Universe Canada on May 18th at the John Bassett Theatre. Valente is a 23 year old York University student majoring in languages. She will be representing Canada at the Miss Universe pageant that will be taking place in the Bahamas this August.

Valente was previously under the management of ES Team Productions, after winning the Miss Latina Canada 2007 title in August of 2006 at the St. Lawrence Centre for Performing Arts in Toronto. Valente was the first woman of Brazilian heritage to win the title - and also the first Brazilian to win Miss Universe Canada.

"We were so proud to hear that she had won," says producer Stefany Singh - Rodriguez. "When we found out that she had entered we knew immediately that she would be a front runner. Mariana has always demonstrated that she loved the fashion and modelling and industry,and she has that ability to captivate the attention in a room. The best part is from our experience with her, is that she is dedicated, has a strong understanding of the pagentry industry, and more importantly she has used these winnings to further her greater objectives of both becoming a model and increasing awareness of her charity. We strongly beleive that Mariana has what it takes to win Miss Universe."

Carrie Prejean Causes Uproar at Miss USA

Carrie Prejean - Miss California USA, was the first runner-up at the 2009 Miss USA pageant. However, she successfully managed to steal the limelight from the winner based on her answer to her final question.


Prejean managed to chose the question from judge Perez Hilton - celebrity gossip blogger - who asked heropinionon gay marriage. Prejean answered that marriage should be between opposite sex and not same sex partners, perhaps not realizing that Perez Hilton is also an openly gay man.


Further to this contreversy, Prejean went forward as a spokesperson for an anti-gay marriage faith activist group without discussing with Miss Calfornia USA organizers. Trouble continued to follow the beauty queen when semi - nude photos appeared of the titleholder, that were apparently taken when she was 16 years old. Miss California USA rules stipulate that there can be no such photos taken in a delegates past, and that spokesperson deals must be dealt with through the ornganization.


The matter went as far as consideration for dethronement, and ultimately Donald Trump - co-owner of both Miss USA and Miss Universe determined that Prejean could keep her title. Nothing like a little contreversy to make Trump happy to have his brand in the newspapers!
