Hooray! The new Miss Universe is Dayana Mendoza, Miss Venezuela.

The show took place in Nha Trang, Vietnam. Of course there were funny moments: Miss USA, Crystle Stewart, fell down during the evening gown. She just tripped on the train of her expensive evening dress as she made her entrance. You’ll get to see the funny video in the following days, as it will appear on Youtube. :) Last year Rachel Smith was the star of all internet video sites with her performance of falling down her ass during the evening gown presentation.

Dayana Mendoza, 22, dreams about becoming an Interior Designer. She also enjoys photography and is interested in advertising. Dayana was once kidnapped in her homeland. The new Miss Universe received the crown from her predecessor, Riyo Mori from Japan.

Five ladies got into finals: Miss Mexico, Miss Dominican Republic, Miss Colombia, Miss Rusia and, of course, Miss Venezuela. Second runner up was Miss Colombia while Miss Thailand won the prize for Best National Costume and Miss El Salvador was chosen Miss Congeniality.

Take a look at the most beautiful ladies in the world:
