From Albania to Zambia, contestants from six continents strut across a stage at the Mandalay Bay Resort and Casino on the Las Vegas Strip, but backstage is where all the real drama takes place. Luckily I found myself in the gifting lounge where I had unrestricted access to celebrities such as Donald Trump, Natalie Morales (The Today Show), John Legend & The Roots, Bret Michaels, Jane Seymour, Chaz Palminteri (Oscar nominated actor), Chriss Angel (illusionist/mystifier), Stefania Fernandez (2009 Miss Universe winner), William Baldwin (actor/producer/writer), Sheila E (world-renowned percussionist/drummer), Holly Madison (The Girls Next Door/Holly’s World), Tamron Hall (anchor of “MSNBC Live”), Evan Lysacek (2010 Olympic Gold Medalist), Chynna Phillips (American singer/actress), Niki Taylor (International Supermodel) contestants where showered with gifts from sponsors of Miss Universe.
