In the gown competition, there was a skirt.

She did not win the title and she did not even make it to the semi-finals but she got the attention of the billionaire Donald Trump.

The Australian controversial Miss Universe entrant, Erin McNaught was chosen to appear in The Late Show with David Letterman together with Donald Trump.

You,Me And Dupree



First time, I saw Owen Wilson was in High Noon, with JAckie Chan. He was simply a riot.

After the Wedding Crashers, he has a new movie that he co-wrote and produced.
You, Me and Dupree.

Here is a mvoie review from New York Times.

Excerpt from the review:

And what of Owen Wilson, Mr. Vaughn’s partner in booty call from “Wedding Crashers,” the smooth operator with the zigzag nose who’s looking to score again this week with a trifle called “You, Me and Dupree”? This time Mr. Wilson’s partner in bad-boy crime is Matt Dillon, providing yeoman straight-man support as Dupree’s best friend, Carl, whose new marriage to Molly (Kate Hudson) puts a kink in the men’s friendship. Will Carl and Dupree remain tight? Will Carl and Molly do the same after Dupree moves in and almost burns down their house? Will it all end happily after the poop jokes, pratfalls and modest disturbances? Are you kidding? Will you laugh anyway? Possibly. Loudly? Not so much.
