Yvette Nsiah at Miss Universe

posted Jul 14, 2008

yvette nsiah miss universe pageantYvette Nisah, a UAlbany student representing Ghana, competed in yesterday's Miss Universe pageant. She didn't finish in the top 15, though she did look great. And let's face it, not meeting the approval of Donald Trump's leering eye isn't so bad.

A few more pics of Yvette from the pageant are after the jump.

That's Yvette's evening gown look on the left, and her "national costume" look on the right.

The Miss Universe site also has video of Yvette from the competition. In one of the clips, she talks about her love of shoes. Hmm. Maybe she should take a class with Michelle Moshier.
