This image was lost some time after publication, but you can still view it [object Object] . On Thursday, Togo's chief voodoo priest predicted that Togo's World Cup team would win the entire tournament, which is exceedingly unlikely. I think he had his signals confused a little bit, but hey, he was close. Miss Togo did win the Miss World Cup pagent.
And for her victory, the lovely Edwige Madze Badakou received a pretty crown, 2,000 euros, the use of a convertible for a year, and evidently, a very friendly touch from a competitor in the pagent. The use of a car for a year seems a little cheap, but I really admire the sportsmanship of her competitor there. Hooray for the international spirit of sisterhood.
The pageant had one contestant from each of the countries involved. I can't find a picture of the representative from the United States anywhere. I believe that US Soccer officials decided to just put Landon Donovan in a dress. He came in fourth.
