The winner of Miss Italia does not compete in Miss World or Miss Universe, however, it remains the most celebrated beauty title in Italy, the one which revealed names like Sofia Loren. Stefania Bivone, 18, Miss Calabria, was the winner of Miss Italia 2011, in yesterday’s final event, telecast live by RAI 1 for millions of people in Italy and in over 170 countries.

2011 Miss Italia a confronto – Francesca Testasecca vs Stefania Bivone
Popolo italiano, ricoperto di problemi fino al collo di ogni sorta, preoccupato per la crisi, per il lavoro, per il Pil che non cresce, per lo spread tra i bund tedeschi e i nostri vecchi cari bot caserecci che si impenna ad ogni piè sospinto, dedichiamoci dunque ad una analisi della minima importanza.
In uno slancio di massima futilità, alla fine di una giornata come tante, mettiamo a confronto le due miss italia 2010 e 2011.
Chi è meglio tra la miss italia 2010 Francesca Testasecca e l’appena eletta Stefania Bivone? In seguito a questo post alcune foto delle due miss, a documentare le due italiche bellezze.
2011 Miss Italia Ohio - Christina Selvaggio Stickan
Many young women entered the Miss Italia Ohio pageant hoping to be crowned with this prestigious title. All were beautiful, intelligent young women, but one stood out from the rest. She is Christina (Selvaggio) Stickan, this year's Miss Italia.
In accepting her honor, Christina acknowledged the other entrants by saying "Everyone wins; we are all Italians!"
Christina is not new to awards. She received the Presidential, American Values and Alumni Scholarships at John Carroll University, the school where she received her B.A. degree. She is also the recipient of the Dorothy Taft Volunteer of the Year Award. This award is given by the Cuyahoga County Republican Party and is the highest volunteer award they give.
When asked why she wanted to represent Italian-Americans in Cleveland her response was simply "One has only to walk through the Cleveland Italian Cultural Gardens to be reminded of the great contributions Italians have made to our world. It would be my honor to be named Miss Italia of Ohio so that I might proudly serve as an ambassador within my community to represent all things Italian!"
The judges felt the sincerity in her response. That coupled with her engaging personality and brilliant smile made her a natural for the title.
Christina is studying nursing at Cleveland State. Although she studies hard she also has a lot of other interests to keep her busy. She is a wonderful cook (Mom, Lucy Stickan, probably showed her the way to wonderful Italian cooking!)
She can get physical or philosophical - she plays both the flute and volleyball. Her flute playing is the result of four years of studying at the Cleveland Institute of Music.
Christina is a delightful woman with a charming combination of wit and wisdom. She is proud of being Italian and the Italians are proud of her. A conversation with Christina will quickly show you that faith and family are the center of her life.
Ohio and Italy can both be very proud of the selection of Christina Stickan as Miss Italia Ohio! She is a credit to both.
Alec Baldwin Decries Troy Davis Execution
The execution of Troy Davis last night drew widespread criticism, including from 30 Rock star Alec Baldwin, who did not hold back on Twitter today.
Never one to shy away from controversial subjects, Baldwin made sure that his disgust over the Georgia man's death was heard loud and clear.
Of Davis' execution, which occurred at 11.08 p.m. by lethal injection, despite a plea for clemency, "The anti-justice haters won tonight," Baldwin said.
The 53-year-old actor went on to make a stream of politically passionate comments that attracted both praise and criticism from Twitter followers.
He referred to the family of police officer Mark McPhail, who was gunned down rushing to the aid of a homeless man in a Burger King parking lot in 1989.
"Wonder if the MacPhail family will seek death penalty for US leaders who killed thousands of US soldiers and countless innocent Iraqis," tweeted Alec.
He then went on a Twitter rampage about his disgust in the execution of 42-year-old Davis, which was based on questionable eyewitness evidence.
"Every sensible American is appalled when police officer is killed. But the attendant charges are grave. U don't want 2 kill an innocent man."
"Troy Davis is still dead. The gulf, still contaminated. Fukushima, still radioactive. Iraq, war. #wecraveignorancesowecanshoplikeamericans"
He then went after conservative blogger Michelle Malkin,after she wrote: "Waiting for Hollyweirdo @alecbaldwin's "I am Troy Davis" tweet..."
To which he replied: "Davis is dead Does that make you happier, @michellemalkin?" He wasn't done there, hitting her with this comment:
"I wonder if @michellemalkin will push the needle in herself on a man the former FBI director said might have reasonable doubt on his side."
Baldwin, who has reportedly considered venturing into politics, was far from the only Hollywood star to weigh in on this cause celebre.
Following her messages of support to Daivs on Wednesday, Kim Kardashian was upset to wake up on Thursday and discover he was dead.
"Such an injustice!!!! Troy Davis was executed! My prayers are with the Davis Family! #RIPTroyDavis," the professional celebrity tweeted.

Troy Davis execution
Troy Davis denied clemency
One last way to take action to save Troy Davis’ life is to sign this petition from Amnesty International to Chatham County District Attorney, Larry Chisolm, who has the power to withdraw the death warrant and support clemency. Or contact the DA’s office directly at: Telephone: 912-652-7308 Fax: 912-652-7328. Also, call Judge Penny Freesemann at Telephone: 912-652-7252 who has to accept the DA’s withdrawal.
In a rather unsurprising but nonetheless ruthless move, Troy Davis, a man accused of a murder that he most likely did not commit, has been denied clemency from the Georgia Board of Pardons and Paroles from his sentence to death. Davis will be put to death tomorrow at 7pm thanks to Georgia’s draconian death penalty laws. The parole hearing was the last possible hope.

Christina Hendricks is going to Drive
Mad Men‘s Christina Hendricks has joined the cast of director Nicolas Winding Refn’s Drive according to Variety.

Madhuri Dixit’s Kisses and the Craze Behind Them
Madhuri Dixit’s kisses in some of her movies are some of the most viral videos now in many social networking sites.
It’s always the case with an Indian actress. Indian actresses are often portrayed as homely and moral figures, and they take on the roles of naïve and innocent women who are always dependent on the hero to bail them out of trouble. But when the song sequences arrive, though, the front benchers start to rejoice as the heroines are then decked up in the skimpiest of clothes and made to dance around in the rain. Such are the laws of decency in conservative India, and they have been so for long – so who can complain?
And Madhuri Dixit, for one, has always been cast in naughty yet homely roles. One of the extremely beautiful actresses that the industry has ever seen, she warmed her way through the hearts of the masses with her cheerful and delicate portrayals. The actress does have a couple of glamorous roles to her name, though, or so Madhuri fans are now discovering. The stunning beauty has been involved in a couple of very sensual onscreen kisses with her co-stars Jackie Shroff and Vinod Khanna in the movies Dayavan (1988) and Vardi (1989). Although the kisses were hardly noticed back then (she wasn’t a major star), the videos from these movies are now hot on the internet.
Kat Dennings plays a human
Kenneth Branagh’s adaption of Thor has a great cast already in place. Chris Hemsworth as Thor, Tom Hiddleston as Loki, Anthony Hopkins as Odin, Natalie Portman, Jaimie Alexander, Colm Feore, Samuel L. Jackson to name but a few.
MTV Splash Page recently spoke with Natalie Portman, who was promoting her new film Brothers, and she revealed that Kat Dennings (Nick and Norah’s Infinite Playlist) has a role in Thor as well.
“Well I’m really excited,” Portman told MTV News. “Kat Dennings is going to be in it with me and she’s a good friend and an amazing actress, so I’m looking forward to that.”
Variety has confirmed Dennings’ role in the film and is reporting that she will play Darcy, who works with Natalie Portman’s character, Jane Foster.
