The shoes look uncomfortable. See the toes of Miss Karembeu, see how pinched. Ouch! Miss Yamamoto's toes are hangin out her shoes. Ouch again! I do like Miss Yamamoto's dress. Classy and not green.

When does disagreeing with someone's viewpoint mean you are being impolite? Why offer a comments section if you are going to edit them to say what you like. You should just add the comments yourself. Ooops, I guess that is what you are doing.

Moderator,

Stop editing our comments. Why even offer comments if you just going to edit them to say what you want? Is this site ran by communists. What happen to free speech?

Moderator: Keep your posts on topic and do not be impolite to the moderators or other posters and your messages will not need to be removed or edited.

Ken_chan,

Some body language is cultural but not these signs. It also the context of the situation and knowing previous history about Mona. She is definitely showing insecurity, not taking anything away from her appeal.

teleprompter: Why do people need to bring up 'race' ?

Pah! Race, heighth, eye color, face shape, hair length....they are just descriptive words to me, not that much meaning beyond that.

ALL races are beautiful in their own way, not sure about Mona though.

Karembeau is one lucky guy and was a good prolific football player.

I see two women, each fortunate to be beautiful, and each in their own way. Why do people need to bring up 'race' ?

Mona is not intimidated or insecure. Japanese body language is different from Western

Stop with the line drawing! It's getting tired.

Adriana is promoting her line of cosmetics so she HAS to look stunning and ravishing 100% of the time. Mona's just there for the ride...looks like she was about to say/do something when Jun Sato took her photo.

Yeah. The Caucasian ones.

Very funny. I was not talking about a nationality obviously, but rather an ethnicity.

While Mona smiles inward, Adriana smiles outward broadly.

Japanese can be considered the closest to caucasian of all Asians. A few Japanese could pass for caucasian

Another pair of awful shoes. Yesterday it was Emiri in her knock-kneed/ pigeon-toed pose with PM Aso, today it is Mona's turn. Adriana's strappy shoes are so much more elegant...

Soft focus next time, please, Mr. Jun Sato.

We should be very worried about famous tv personalities using satanic cult symbols. I checked tv this morning and found 3 other people using these. We should all be on our guard!

Her husband was a very good football player. What a catch!

mona is clearly very intimidated in this pic

Mona's body language reveals she feels insecure. Probably, because she standing next to a beautiful model.

Liketis,

Where is the scientific evidence that Japanese are considered the closest of all Asian to Caucasian? A lot times Japanese people have other ethnic backgrounds in their family lineage. In the past, they would usually try to hide it. We are talking about a country steeped in class systems and xenophobia. This is a homogeneous society (at least in theory) and being mixed has only recently been considered a plus.

I thought Suzannu might be half because she has the one gaijin name and I think its the effect shes going for with the 3 TONS of makeup she uses.Either that or New Half.

rogerbentham: no j-girl looks caucasian.

Wrong. In general, Japanese can be considered the closest to caucasian of all Asians. A few Japanese could pass for caucasian, but many have what we would consider to be caucasian features.

Beautiful smiles that's what i need, thank you JT !

mona's clearly a gaijin. no j-girl looks caucasian.

Mona is half-J/half-Norwegian. I've run across J-girls that "looked" caucasian occasionally and they weren't "haafu" or anything. I've also ssen J-girls that looked non-JP and non-caucasian. How many years have you spent in Japan to have reached your conclusion?

Observations:

the model on the right is clearly a professional, with her smile, and eyes and other assets pointed directly at the camera.

the model of the left, is looking off into the distance, and her left hand is clearly curled in the well know satanic cult symbol.

I believe this to be an indication of the impending end times.

Adriana looks like a more beautiful version of Paris Hilton. and Mona is by far more beautiful.
