Been a while since a celebrity has been so dumb as to elicit my ever-coveted Why So Classy? exclamation, but there it is...You might want to get on the phone with your travel agent right now to book a trip to the extremely beautiful paradise known as Guantánamo Bay, because it will be the travel destination of the year! Miss Universe agrees, because she recently paid a visit and never wanted to leave!
The New York Times says The Miss Universe Organization sent the brain trust known as Dayana Mendoza to the detention center in Cuba to meet the U.S. soldiers and their families.
Two days ago, she blogged about it on her website, but it was taken down yesterday. You can read the whole entry here, but I've pointed out some of the real gems below:
This week, Guantánamo!!! It was an incredible experience.
We also met the Military dogs, and they did a very nice demonstration of their skills.
We visited the Detainees camps and we saw the jails, where they shower, how the recreate themselves with movies, classes of art, books. It was very interesting.
The water in Guantánamo Bay is soooo beautiful! It was unbelievable, we were able to enjoy it for at least an hour.
I didn’t want to leave, it was such a relaxing place, so calm and beautiful.
Okay, in her defense, she's dumber than a sack of dog poop and can't help it. But seriously, I think she was mostly talking about the town itself when she says it was "beautiful" and "relaxing." I have to tell myself this, or I'll simply drink myself to death.
After The Miss Universe Organization took down the post, they issued this statement: "Dayana Mendoza’s comments on her blog were in reference to the hospitality she received while meeting the members of the U.S. military and their families who are stationed in Guantánamo."
Methinks they should just keep Miss Universe away from anything that causes her to put thoughts together. Just smile, wave, play with cute doggies, smile, wave, play with cute babies...
