Can a Beauty Pageant be a Work of Art?
2008 MISS SL UNIVERSE PAGEANT (continued)

YMAN JURAN

The second event was the swimsuit competition, which Didn't interest me that much. But one of the highlights of the evening came while the contestants changed from swimsuits into Evening Wear (with some dazzling designs shown on the next pages). Yman Juran performed on a rotating circular trapeze, twirling fire batons, with movements that combine ballet, cheerleading and acrobatics amidst cascading particle effects. This was her first solo show in SL. We usually see her with the Changhigh Trinity Sisters.
