‘2014 Miss International’ winner was Puerto Rico

52622463eccf5ba56b5c0e1cd19c4717_13156.j
 

(Left to right) – England (4th), Colombia (2nd), Puerto Rico (1st), Thailand (3rd), Finland (5th)




52622463eccf5ba56b5c0e1cd19c4717_13048.j

And Japan (Hongou Rira), who won nothing.

(+1196) Yeah, I never thought Japan’s representative would win

 

(+209) She looks like a transvestite

 

(+456) Rira’s dignity is the same…

 

(+448) It can’t be helped Japan ( ˘ω˘ )

 

(+446) I don’t know the criteria

But Japan’s representative doesn’t even have a face that Japan thinks is pretty

 

(+322) She can’t even rival the style of the other girls of the world

(+221) Colombia’s representative is preeeetty.

 

(+234) I can see that the girls in the tournament seem to be pretty and have nice personalities

 

(+365) The Puerto Rico girl is absolutely pretty.

I feel like the Japanese representative doesn’t fit.

 

(+285) The Japanese girl looks like she came out of a Disney movie LOL

 

(+822) Why was this girl chosen as Japan’s representative?

(+459) Japan’s representative is~…

 

(+376) I thought they would at least try and give her a good look. But it came out horribly.

I wondered who Japan’s representative reminded me of and it’s this girl!!

I thought she could be her older sister (even though she’s not)

 

(+292) The five winners were asked what their favorite food was during their stays in Japan and they answered “sushi†“green tea flavored Kit-Kats†“soy sauce flavore ice cream†and “wakameâ€

 

I find their answers kind of cute LOL

 

(+302) The Japanese representative

She looks so scary

 

(+209) The beautiful women in South America are the best.

And everyone’s teeth are so PRETTY!!

 

(+444) The Japanese girl looks ugly

Why she was chosen is a mystery to me

 

(+327) Naturally, Puerto Rico is pretty ♡ And #2 is pretty too ♡
And of course, Japan’s representative is the worst… Was she chosen because they thought she had ‘an Asian face that white people like’? Well it looks like white people don’t like it either.

 

(+484) She has scary eyes

(+326) She is not Japan’s representative~.

Did they just choose her based on her face or something?...

 

No good~. LOL

 

(+314) Hongou Rira is UGLYYYY

 

(+355) Japan’s representative… Isn’t she just an ugly ordinary girl?

 

(+247) I don’t think Hongou Rira’s style or special skills are all that great

 

(+253) Japan’s representative is ugly.

Was there really nobody else?

 

(+209) The more I look at Japan’s representative the more I think she has some kind of birth defect.

 

(+294) So Japan ended up choosing a girl with an un-Japanese face.

Chibana Kurara was GORGEOUS.

(+277) Shirata Hisako in 2007 was good.

The nominee in 2007...I don't have anything against this girl but how did the standards go down like that? It's nice to see them appreciate dark skinned people tbh and not calling them dirty or something.

At the risk of sounding ignorant... I'm honestly surprised they find Miss Puerto Rico and Miss Colombia pretty. I thought they wouldn't like their looks because they have dark skin and their faces don't have that i

nnocent vibe.

 

I do agree with them about Colombia, she is gorgeous!

I don't know but i have noticed that socially and in the current generation there is somewhat a blurred line in that sense: for example exile (produces artists that are somewhat idol like but maintain a divide between private and profession, they pretty much are free of the idol social restrictions and are labelled as performers) who have dark half african or black members ... the japanese industry have alot of artists that have different race backgrounds. They also have the bgyaru culture ... they are the most open in terms of asian cultures for sure. I have noticed that they somewhat make an effort to look beyond colour, if your pretty then you are, they don't always factor in colour in that perception

 

However, they still uphold their traditional beauty standards and there is still colorism and racism, but the extent relative to asia is quiet okay.
