Miss USA Rachel Smith took a butt-tacular spill last night in Mexico City at the Miss Universe competition, and if you haven't seen it yet, you won't quite believe the arse-shaking thud!
What's just as amazing as the actual fall is how quickly Miss Smith gets back up and into perma-smile mode, despite the jeers and titters of the crowd.
Miss Japan won the competition, in case you were wondering.
1. LOL !!!

8. Why was the pageant held in a ungrateful, classless and backward country like Mexico?
I guess Mexico will grab at anything thats archaic and out of date

11. The Shame is Mexico's for booing the American contestant , who has done them no wrong, neither harm.
How utterly classless that audience members would turn the Miss Universe Pageant into a political forum simply because of their jealousy of and false ideas about the United States of America.
Rather than trying to tear down a young lady's confidence, they would be better pressed to use their energies to do something about their rat's-ass, demoralized, economically-unsteady country.
Clearly, I am disgusted by the "hospitality" the Mexicans showed. The pageant should have been stopped and the audience chastized immediately.

14. She handled her fall well; it helps to be young and in obvious good shape; in later years she'll begin having physical issues with her back and legs; she should go get checked out by an orthopedist now. The audience booing both the finalists from the USA and Venezuelan was more an attempt to ridicule each country's political policies. The USA for illegal immigration and Venezuelan closing down its only democratic TV station the other day. It was ironic to hold the pagent in Mexico, which thumbs its proverbial nose at us with its policies of encouraged drug dealing and illegal immigration. Donald Trump holds the purse strings and ownership of the pagent and I hope he never again allows the pagent to be held in Mexico. I'm glad Miss Japan won; she was very lovely; I don't believe anyone has ever won before from Japan, although sometimes winners come from politically embroiled nations. It would've been nice to see Miss Lebanon win, for example.

15. Anyone can trip, and it was indeed sad to see Miss USA trip at Miss Universe. I must say though, she got up as if nothing had happened and handled herself with grace and poise. Some mexican founds in the audience booed her which is really low class, but they don't like anything or anyone from the USA down there, and that's a fact. The last time the pageant was held in Mexico Miss USA was strongly booed. Trump, keep the pageant out of of Mexico!
