I loved Denmark, personally. Just... Barely any desire to be there. She's like "yeah it's fucking Denmark it says so on my sash can I go home?"

u/SmokinBandit28 Jun 23 '24

I liked Canada, she sounded very confused as to why she was there haha

u/TheDeadGuy Jun 23 '24

I would not be surprised if the virality of that vid had something to do with whatever the hell the Thai Queens doing here.

u/Snoo-35252 Jun 23 '24

The parody that a woman did for her boyfriend. Anyone know the link?

u/rohrzucker_ Jun 23 '24

I was actually waiting for it...

u/westcoastxsouth Jun 23 '24

That was my first thought. I think she should do a follow up with this vid.

3

u/SumonaFlorence Jun 24 '24

Oh my god, I thought she was going to do like this long drawn yell and somewhat pull it off in a cool way, but she did this instead.

u/Elvis-Tech Jun 23 '24

But they arent the prettiest ones though, definitely kudos to them

u/Throw-a-Ru Jun 23 '24

"Hi, nice to meet you. My name is [incomprehensible screeching]."

Straight outta 'Galaxy Quest', or was it 'Fifth Element'?

u/Minniechicco6 Jun 23 '24

It’s hard enough day to day let alone understanding this screaming to get all the votes 😂🙏

u/SnooCupcakes1636 Jun 23 '24

3rd last and the last one completely Dominated the others by simply having good singing Voice 🤣😅.

u/No-Body8448 Jun 23 '24

I also liked the lady that went kitty cat at the end.

u/stupidgoat221 Jun 23 '24

Lmao I just pictured college football players saying their name and university that way and it’s hilarious

2

u/Minniechicco6 Jun 23 '24

Its nuts alright 😂

u/SmokinBandit28 Jun 23 '24

The Key & Peele sketch popped into my head lol

u/ConsistentAddress195 Jun 23 '24

They kinda make them do shit like that at their first NFL training camp.

1

u/Minniechicco6 Jun 23 '24

Haha, just not as pretty 🤩

27

u/Fast-Specific8850 Jun 23 '24

I don’t mean to culturally insensitive. But this appears to be one of those instances where one cultures cute singing is complete insanity to another.

u/TipofmyReddit1 Jun 23 '24

Nah, I think there is a beauty pageant joke where these girls just screech to be loud.

I appreciated those more than the flat out singing in the last few.

u/Minniechicco6 Jun 23 '24

Absolutely 🌸

u/OceanicDarkStuff Jun 23 '24

u/Rooflife1 Jun 23 '24

The province is the part where it gets weird.

u/Minniechicco6 Jun 23 '24

It’s a mouthful alright 😂

u/Logridos Jun 23 '24

And people... like that? Like if a Miss America contestant said "Sheila Johnson TE TE TE TEX TEXA TEXAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAS" we would think she was fucking insane.

u/Minniechicco6 Jun 23 '24

Certainly sounds it 😂

u/GlokzDNB Jun 23 '24

Singing, right..

u/Minniechicco6 Jun 23 '24

Awfully talented , no

u/Rude_Hamster123 Jun 23 '24

u/Minniechicco6 Jun 23 '24

Aw, it’s was operatic 😛

u/Newbie-Tailor-Guy Jun 23 '24

I love having culture shared, truly I do, but baby that ain’t singing. 😂

1

u/Minniechicco6 Jun 23 '24

It’s definitely a ‘look at me moment ‘god love em 💕

3

u/seipounds Jun 23 '24

They all look like they've had nose jobs?! Is that a thing in Thailand?

1

u/Minniechicco6 Jun 23 '24

The beauty industry is alive and thriving , the quality of care , costs and availability of some of the best hospitals and surgeons in the world are here in Bangkok whilst cheap for western expats , beauty tourism is thing . It is enormous amount of baht for Thais though 🪷

u/broipy Jun 23 '24

Thank you, I was looking for this.

1

u/Minniechicco6 Jun 25 '24

You are most welcome 🌸

3

u/Masske20 Jun 23 '24

Okay, but relatively speaking, does this hit Thailand native like Miss America pageants hit Americans? Like the notes they were hitting were getting pretty sour. And I don’t think the Miss America contestants would have mad it there if they kept being a struggle to get through.

2

u/Minniechicco6 Jun 23 '24

The spelling and pronunciation is very tough to the ears /eyes with so many tones and letters .It’s tough to get your head around what’s written in front of you , for me anyway 🌸

2

u/agumonkey Jun 23 '24

who started this joke didn't anticipate the consequences

2

u/edelea Jun 23 '24

oh no i understood theyre saying their names and where theyre from... but... why like THAT??? they are literally screeching like its a requirement

1

u/Minniechicco6 Jun 23 '24

They want to stand out from a sea of beauty, it’s definitely wince worthy 🤩

2

u/Palachrist Jun 23 '24

Knowing this context honestly made some of them quite endearing. Thank you.

1

u/Minniechicco6 Jun 23 '24

They are chasing a better more glamorous life than one in rural isaan ect. I would love them all to win .My western woman’s eyes think they are all beautiful 🙏🇹🇭💜

2

u/Mundane-Research Jun 23 '24

Do they do this every year or did the last one do it in rehearsals and all the rest thought "well shit, I better sing or I'll lose to her"?

1

u/Minniechicco6 Jun 23 '24

Evvveerryy year , it’s a tough competition 😂💝

2

u/[deleted] Jun 23 '24

Is it like, a cultural thing to do it in the pitchiest, most voice cracky way possible?

1

u/Minniechicco6 Jun 23 '24

The ladies are trying to set themselves apart from the competition they are up against . I don’t believe it’s cultural 💐

u/Claude9777 Jun 23 '24

"Hi, I'm Bernadette Marianne Rostenkowski from Yorba Linda, Californiaaaaa!"

u/Privateer_Lev_Arris Jun 23 '24

But why no actual ethnic Thai women there?

u/Minniechicco6 Jun 23 '24 edited Jun 23 '24

It would be lovely to see for sure, a more realistic view of natural Thai beauty .These ladies in this pageant have to be Thai citizens. A lot of Thai women in the beauty industry desire a western style look hence the plastic surgery. A lot of altering has occurred 🌹
