A Miss America of Indian origin!
Tastes and colors are not to be argued...
And since people always want what they don’t have, Asians have surgery to “un-slant” their eyes, Blacks straighten their hair, Whites burn their skin in the sun...
Indians are no exception to the rule and skin-whitening cosmetics are as successful as they can be damaging for the skin.
On this topic, I wrote on this blog five years ago: “Indian models are successful abroad and foreign models are successful in India: everything is balanced!”
And 2013 Miss America turns out to be of Indian origin!
Now compare the complexion of Miss America 2013 and the contestants to Miss India 2013. Funny isn’t it? Not sure Nina Davuluri, the American crowned model, would win a beauty pageant in India!
