Manila, Philippines

The contest was held for the
first time in 11 years outside Japan. Before the contest in Manila
began, 100 Filipino students picketed the theatre for 15 minutes, denouncing
the contest as an "USA imperialist tool" to sell beauty products. They were
dispered by police. The winner, 16-year-old high-school student Simone
Renee Overman, was born in Pueblo, Colorado, but had moved to Hawaii.
