toybits Posted September 13, 2011 Share Posted September 13, 2011 (edited) Don't blame the OP. He was just reporting what WAS printed in The Nation Online newspaper. Their writers can't even count properly. 1st, 2nd, 5th, 4th. 555 Journalism at its best. Miss Angola is Miss Universe 2001 Published on September 13, 2011 Leila Lopes of Angola was crowned as Miss Universe 2011 early Tuesday in Sao Paulo, Brazil ahead of 88 other contestants.
