First - a perennial favorite, tennis star Anna Kournikova.
Title: Re: First Annual RWD Beauty Pageant - Vote for Your Favorite ....
Post by: Admin on July 11, 2006, 05:51:36 PM
Next is the Kournikova replacement - at least, insofar as the tennis court is concerned - Maria Sharapova.
Title: Re: First Annual RWD Beauty Pageant - Vote for Your Favorite ....
Post by: Admin on July 11, 2006, 05:53:25 PM
Next up is Russian pop star Alsu.
Title: Re: First Annual RWD Beauty Pageant - Vote for Your Favorite ....
Post by: Admin on July 11, 2006, 05:54:28 PM
Now on to some new names, for some, the supermodel Carmen Kass.
Title: Re: First Annual RWD Beauty Pageant - Vote for Your Favorite ....
Post by: Admin on July 11, 2006, 05:56:26 PM
Daniela Pestova is a name recognizable to some - as one of the leading supermodels in the world.
Title: Re: First Annual RWD Beauty Pageant - Vote for Your Favorite ....
Post by: Admin on July 11, 2006, 05:58:10 PM
Another in the current group of Russian supermodels who are leading the world, is Eugenia Volodina.
Title: Re: First Annual RWD Beauty Pageant - Vote for Your Favorite ....
Post by: Admin on July 11, 2006, 05:59:55 PM
And yet another Russian supermodel to compete for your votes, Karolina Kurkova.
Title: Re: First Annual RWD Beauty Pageant - Vote for Your Favorite ....
Post by: Admin on July 11, 2006, 06:05:36 PM
Let us not forget one of the most memorable achievements in emergence of Russian beauties onto the world stage, as shown here in the photos of Miss Universe, Oxana Fedorova.
Title: Re: First Annual RWD Beauty Pageant - Vote for Your Favorite ....
Post by: Admin on July 11, 2006, 06:12:11 PM
And now returning to our Russian supermodels, we have Ruslana Korshunova.
Title: Re: First Annual RWD Beauty Pageant - Vote for Your Favorite ....
Post by: Admin on July 11, 2006, 06:16:00 PM
And now, Tatiana Zavialova.
Title: Re: First Annual RWD Beauty Pageant - Vote for Your Favorite ....
Post by: Admin on July 11, 2006, 06:18:04 PM
And finally, at least in this first crop of candidates, is presented Valentina Zelyaeva.

Dan - I'm not a regular reader of Playboy, but I thought
a Russian edition might go well on eBay. The lady on the
cover, Olga Kurbatova, was Playboy's Russian Playmate
of the Year, and from the pictorial I can see why.

If there's room for one more, Olga gets my vote.
Title: Re: First Annual RWD Beauty Pageant - Vote for Your Favorite ....
Post by: Admin on July 11, 2006, 06:58:14 PM
And at Vaughn's suggestion, we have added Olga Kurbatova.
Title: Re: First Annual RWD Beauty Pageant - Vote for Your Favorite ....
Post by: Vaughn on July 11, 2006, 07:01:31 PM
Dan, thanks. BTW, folks, Dan not only added Olga to the list,
but he located and posted two photos in record time. Dan, I
bet Bruno would be proud of your speedy performance!

The trick with Olga wasn't finding the photos - it was finding photos which could be posted on the live board  ;)

Billy,

Your lady is one of several ladies connected to the guys on the board who I expect would give any of these beauties a run for their money.

Is Czechoslovakia part of FSU? Both  Kurkova and Pestova were born in that country.
Title: Re: First Annual RWD Beauty Pageant - Vote for Your Favorite ....
Post by: jb on July 11, 2006, 09:43:00 PM
You have excellent taste in women, Oxana Fedorova is a true stunner with a brain to go with the good looks. A most impressive woman.

And per Wild Orchid's suggestion, we have added rhythmic gymnast Alina Kabaeva to the list.

Post by: BillyB on July 12, 2006, 04:09:23 PM
Oxana Fedorova is a stunner. I'm more into blondes but Oxana has the complete package. Unfortunately for her, there are guys voting for "less than Miss Universe" material in this poll. What's a matter with you guys? You need to have your heads examined.

Dan, thanks for the compliments. There's something about those gymnasts that makes me think it wouldn't be bad to date one. Gotta love that flexability!

Olga Kurbatova???  I was told her name was Svetlana and she works in a pet store in Lugansk.  She lives ith her sick mother, Borisia (who I'm sure is doing much better after the gene therapy I have been paying for) and as soon a Borisia is back on her feet, Svetlana is coming here to marry me!  Boy, won't you guys be jealous then!

OK I have to chime in here, This thread is absolutely disgusting, how can you blatantly put these pictures on display, this is completely demeaning to these girls, and completely exploitative, you guys and Girl just drooling over these girls like there just pieces of meat, when there are very nice people too, but I didn't see any personality contest, this has me so upset, that I am ashamed to be a male and ummm and

Man I gotta stop watchin OPRAH!!!!

Long Live the HOTTIES!!!!!!

Not an easy task, is it? I had a serious problem picking only one from the three I felt were best - but then again, ANY of them are worthy winners.

I am a little surprised that neither Pestova nor Sharapova have picked up any votes yet.

The leaders represent an interesting mix. One, a former Miss Universe - another is a Playboy Playmate - and another is a semi-famous supermodel.

Ought to be interesting to see who finally comes out on top.

How long do you think we should run the poll?? [question is to ALL]

I'd say no less than another week and no more than the end of the month. Some folks don't sign on that often and this is MUCH important an issue to take lightly!  ;D

Ken

P. S. Maria was one of my top three but I just had to go elsewhere. She's way better looking than that other tennis girl who has some votes...

Now Ken,
How can you possibly say that? One is a total hottie that can play a little tennis and the other is a very fine tennis player that is rather cute.  Sorry, but Anna just has "it" and the other doesn't.  BTW, I voted for Kurkova because my honey wasn't in the contest.

What about paulina portivoka or whatever the hell her last name is.  That chick that married the guy from the cars.  PS... I think you have to take out the gymnist. Its too unfair.  Unless your gay bendy chicks are way hot.  She gets my vote with ALSU as a very very close second

OK - the poll will run for 10 more days - till July 23.

AND..... I made it so you could change your vote. Since we have added a couple of new additions, I thought it only fair that those who voted prior to the new choices, are now able to change those if they wish.

"Bendy chicks" -- LOL. She is a beauty, isn't she. Apparently she is also extremely popular in Russia as well.

My wife and I would like to see photos of each lady before we can cast our vote.  This is our first screening criteria.  If they pass this, we will have questionnaires for them to fill out.  If they pass this, they will be invited for an interview. Where can we see their photos?

Thanks,

HI Erwin,

The photos started on page one of this thread. Did you skip page one or have a problem seeing them? I'm not so sure these famous women have time to fill out a questionaire but if you can get their attention, by all means do so!

 Should we send Anna a prize or something? Maybe a RWD HOTTIE AWARD to stick on her site?

 I'm sure she'd be overwhelmed with knowing what a great honor has been bestowed upon her. Maybe she'll make an appearance in the chat room to thank all of her fans!

No Way! Aliona has some great wisdom and thoughts. Although it is often very Zen like in presentation. I was thinking if the real Anna knew what an honor she received she would be overjoyed to come and thank her fans.

 That would have been unfair to the other contestents. How would it look if we added her and she got all the votes? People would say the pagent was fixed, law suits would follow and it would just be one big mess!  ;D

When's the 2nd annual beauty pagent? After all the fighting of late we need to get the men here focused on RW.

Here's a potential candidate for the next competition, Yulia Nova. She won a beauty pagent in Moscow and went on to be famous in Japan, with the men at least. Although she does nude photography, she does not do porn. The links here are not rated R but rated G cups which may still be too much for some men to handle.
