This year Sao Paulo will host 89 candidates who will participate in the Miss Universe 2011 Pageant at the Credicard Hall on September 12. The Miss Universe contest is meant to be more than just a beauty pageant: women aspiring to become Miss Universe should be intelligent, well-mannered, and cultured. The contestants compete in swimsuit and evening gown competitions but the most important rounds for judging tend to be based on the question response rounds; where contestants must answer various questions.
The winner is assigned a one-year contract with the Miss Universe Organization, going overseas to spread messages about the disease control, peace, and public awareness of AIDS. Since Donald Trump took over the pageant in 2002, the winner has been given the use of a Trump Tower apartment in New York City during her one year reign.
