I tabulated some data on Miss Universe 2004 competition. You can download the excel file.

The mean height was 69.4 inches, a little over 5’9 (1.74 meters).

Here were the top six in “looks” from my perspective:

Katrina Wigander, Sweden
Venessa Fisher, Canada
Catherine Manchola, Colombia
Kathrine Soerland, Norway
Yanina Gonzalez, Paraguay
Ksiena Kustova, Russia

I ranked all the contestants on a 0 to 10 scale. The mean for the girls was 7, and I gave Sweden a 9, and the others an 8.5. All the data is cut & pasted below.
