This August 23rd, Bahamas will be set to air the 2009 Miss Universe Pageant directly to your television set and computer screens from the Atlantis Resort located on Paradise Islands in the beautiful Bahamas.  rs3hcavbke

“Access Hollywood”  TV personality Billy Bush is returning to emcee the event and  his lovely co-hort will be Claudia Jordan of “Celebrity Apprentice” and “Deal or No Deal”.

No news yet who will be the entertainment for the event asides from a bevy of international ladies vying for the top spot. Actually it could go to the backstage look at what really goes on at these competitions. In recent years, pageants have been plagued with catty drama and it would be cool if we can get a reality tv-style view of it. But considering since Donald Trump is still managing to produce this, I doubt that he would want any more dirty laundry aired out on his enterprise.

Miss Universe 2008 Dayana Mendoza will pass on her title and crown to the new winner in customary fashion. And the newly crowned Miss Universe will continue on the humanitarian work assigned.
