May 17, 2010 in Celebrity Quotes, Hot Models by Versus
Name: Rima Fakih
Title: Miss USA 2010
Age: 24
When asked about her feelings after getting the crown, Rima answered: “Ask me after I’ve had a pizza.”
See this beauty queen from head to toe after the jump!
not so pretty
shes lebanese american
ah ! thanks for the information cus her name is so familiar fakih means monk and rima means Gazelle
so so pretty
She’s pretty but her answer to the birth control question was soooo dumb. Birth control is not “a controlled substance.” Um, narcotics are.
They’re not?
I didn’t understand…
Actually VKAT, any medication requiring a Prescription is a controlled Substance…… so Miss USA is right
lol….i was going to comment that but I see you got it first. She is beautiful and intellegent. Ignorance is bliss I see.
Miss USA competitions don’t mean anything to me since i’m not even American, but I think she’s really beautiful for a beauty pageant contestant, they often have somehow a buttery, forgettable look about them imo.
I sign under this. I never watch the shows so I can only judge the looks.
This was hilarious, Michigan and Mississippi were the only 2 who didnt look like they came out of a blondie factor. They should stop allowing contestants with plastic surgery.
Im glad she won, I thought she was indian, so i was routing for her the whole show. F all those skinny look the same blonde biznatches, american girls are the worst.
WOOT for RIMA
P.S. How many times do you think donald trump gets to have sex with her now?
well she is middle eastern and she looks natural to me I see girls like her around me all the time she is very typical but i’m glad for her
Well I agree that they shouldn’t allow plastic surgery, but your comment about American girls was pretty dumb.
What is with the blond jokes. (So childish and a bit annoying).
Anyway, would Rima be considered a “skinny brunette biznatch”…She is a very tiny girl? But not a blond tiny girl so that is ok with you, right?
And the whole “American girls are the worst”….then why are you watching Miss America/USA (or whatever this pagent is called).
Stop being so hateful and judgemental. It is not OK to stereotype and offend people – have you not picked up a history book and seen the problems caused by hatred towards certain people!
One of the most immature things I’ve heard someone say on this site.
And blonde does not define you as American, this woman is American too, that is why she won Miss USA. America is about representing diversity, and people with blonde hair are part of that just as much as any other person of any other different background.
You take the crown in the category as most close-minded, no pun intended.
actually, this woman isn’t an american. she’s a legal immigrant. she was born in lebanon.
If she has an American citizenship she is an American.
People need to get over it.
Lol, all americans are immigrants, or descendants of immigrants.
i SO second that! thinking only white people are american is so dumb…the only “true” american people are Native Americans..
i must have read a source wrong, i did not realize she had obtained american citizenship. i was wrongly misinformed on her citizenship status. immigrants without citizenship aren’t americans, which led me to make the comment i did.
i’m not stupid, i have taken history classes, i know how america was built.
further, i said nothing about her race excluding her from being an american.
people need to stop reading in-between non-existent lines.
I don’t understand how she won after tripping during the evening gown section. She’s a beautiful girl, but thought she would have been eliminated for that. Seems rigged…
Well, tripping is not a crime. It doesnt make you less beautiful or less smart. If you trip its an accident, i think as human beings judges understand that it tends to happen to all of us haha
didn’t watch and don’t know anything about her but she is gorgeous
and i love pizza
versus, do you know how tall she is ?
Some sources say 5’8”.
“Ask me after I’ve had a pizza”….so does that mean the girl has been starving herself to be beautiful?!?!
Not that I am unaware of the lengths models and beauty pagent contestants go through to keep that figure, but to announce it on national TV. Bad move.
Rima, at future public speaking events I would advice not ‘encouraging’ bad habits since you are in the public’s eye and are now a role model to many young girl out there.
Announcing that she is having a pizza is a bad thing? After years of training and competing under harsh diet and exercise this is a bad thing?
What did you want her to say, “Ask me after I go bust my butt in the gym for two hours using the energy from a salad.”
At least she is showing that after you work hard to achieve something, you can let yourself relax and indulge. Seems a lot more realistic than maintaining her beauty pageant training routine.
really good comments…
i think it was a cute and clever thing to say! 1) she may just love pizza – and wanted to eat some. she may not have restricted it, and just was hungry after the competition. she was happy and wanted to enjoy something as a celebration! better than saying ‘i’ll tell you after a shot of tequila!’ for young women to hear. 2) she was being judged on the fitness of her figure. she wanted to look the absolute best she could on that day. she actually may have had to cut out junk food for a while before the competition all together. i am guessing she doesn’t indulge often when a competition is far off, but she probably allows herself treats. when one is coming, there is no room for extras. she had to step it up. its not like she said ‘ask me after my first meal in 3 months.’ she said ask her after pizza – something we should all eat in moderation anyway. i think its good to portray it as a special occasion meal – its certainly not going to kill you, but its not an everyday thing.
i personally take issue with the bigger picture – the fact young girls would be watching a competition where other young women are being judged on their appearance. that is the real crime here. to portray that honestly (if in fact she hasn’t had pizza in a while) is probably a good thing! it would be worse to let these girls think there is something wrong with the cause they don’t just naturally look like that! let me tell you, after looking at all the bikini pics, the girls watching are definitely getting the message that they should be slim and ultra fit, and probably have huge fake boobs (though hers a natural and fit her body well) – there was variety in body shape, but hardly any in fitness level and slimness. so compared to the whole concept of ‘miss america,’ the pizza comment is not going to do any damage. i think it only adds a human quality to her, making her actually more ‘real’ and and easy to relate to.
I could be wrong but don’t contestants have to be born in the USA/America to participate or do they only have to be citizens?
maybe she is, who said she wasn’t?
She is a US citizen. I was just curious but I guess as long as you’re a citizen you can enter.
Reminds me of Sandra bullock for some reason… and not just cause I’m thinking about miss congeniality
Shes gorgeous, middle eastern women are so beautiful, not all obviously but there are lots of stunning women in the middle east who put those hollywood barbies to shame.
Source – lived there, but not from there, so im not blowing my own trumpet lol.
True. I see beautiful middle eastern women all the time. I prefer a woman who looks like this over the typical fake blonde that’s worshipped here in LA.
If you look at pictures of her during the bathing suit portion her legs are very bowed right where her knees are….I LOVED that about her! My legs are bowed too and I’ve always been very self conscious bc of that…so this made me happy to see her flaunting hers
Versus, can you post some pics of her in a bikini?
If you have a link, post it, because I can’t get the bikini pics, sorry.

She has a n amazzzzzinng body and a beautiful face. I agree , insurance should cover b.c., and I’m so proud that she won, she exemplifies the fact that america isn’t just anglo-saxon european etc, and that there are other ethnicities-we’re a melting pot! And those ethnicities are beautiful! Just as beautiful as the ‘california’ girl! The face of the all american girl has changed, and I’m glad
and I’m the typical blonde haired green eyed girl! Hahaha. I’d kill for her beauty! Well… Maybe not kill.. Maim for her beauty? 
I think she had great confidence and is certainly beautiful, but she came across a little ditzy whenever she opened her mouth. I didn’t like how she formulated her bcp response at all, and every time she opened her mouth to speak I cringed because sometimes things came across a little too unpolished. Ending statements with things along the lines of “Yeah, so do it, okay?” or, things of a nature that seemed too rough around the edges. There was just something missing, something I didn’t quite like about this girl. Her PG 13 stripper pole TMZ revealed pics aside, alebit I’d love to see a beauty pageant winner come out nowadays who DIDN’T have a pic of them somewhere with their legs sprawled out or something indecent, or have a sex tape scandal, or God knows what else, for the most part, she’s a lovely girl. I would have preferred Oklahoma, but that’s just me.
She is really beautiful,I love this middle eastern beauty! I think is way prettier than the blond&blue eyes girls…
she’s pretty
She is really beautiful, but i loved Virginia! she seemed so real and sweet!
She is really attractive. I like their choice
This girl is beautiful but I feel like the judges just jumped on the Kardashian Krazy bandwagon–Rima is lovely but her final answer did not warrant the crown. Oklahoma got robbed!! Her body was out of this world!!
Brunette for the win!!! I
Let’s face it, Miss USA’s haven’t always been the most intelligent girl, now have they generally been physically flawless.
So- why can’t we allow THIS girl to be like every other Miss USA- gorgeous and likeable, but with her flaws? She shouldn’t have a different standard applied to her.
And as a final word- an American is an American. Doesn’t matter if they came from Mexico 20 years ago or Ireland 120 years ago. She is just a American as anyone as anyone. If one were to argue that there is a group of ‘truer’ (so to speak) Americans, that would be Native Americans.

Aren’t you clever…
What a stupid, ignorant comment to make
I agree with Jane.
Yeah, sure she’s pretty here, but for some reason I can actually picture here without make up or should I say not done up and it is not pretty. I thought she was one of the Kadashian sis for a sec!
Why don’t you post her pole dancing pics? Haha she is classy!
She’s gorgeous

i dont trhink she could win miss universe. There are so many prettier girls than her. She has great body, but her face isn’t attractive. Mexico has better models.
trump gets to bang them…damn
she’s totally nice looking tho.
[...] We’ve seen Rima before… check out this post! [...]
in love with her arabic beauty
she’s amazing
and its clear that she is arab
love her
she’s so pretty !! she really deserved it,
this is the lebanese beauty and elegance
No doubt about it, this woman is stunning, and real in every way. This is def rigged though. After 9/11, Arabs and Middle Easterns have been discriminated against, and this is America’s way of saying, we are okay with Arabians. Not many middle easterns are in goverment, so this was the perfect oppurutnity to show everyone that America is not a “racist” country, is to make a muslim, Lebanese girl Miss America. There is a a background of politics to this decision.
