Thinking of popping the question, but scared that making it extra special for the lucky lady will surely break the bank? Not to worry – these things don’t have to go hand-in-hand anymore! With the right strategy and planning, purchasing your girl’s dream engagement ring featuring some lovely certified diamonds won’t be as costly as you think. Today we’ll tell you how.
It’s quite an understatement to say that there were hot girls poolside at the Fontainebleau in Miami Beach for the week leading up to the Hooters 15th Annual International Swimsuit Pageant. An even 100 girls from around the world were mingling and doing the ultimate conga line while networking and chatting with anyone who approached them. This was ground zero for swimsuit hotties. With her aqua marine eyes, the bluest in all the land, Fort Lauderdale’s own Lindsey Way was selected out of the 100 Hooters Girl contestants to take the impressive $50,000 prize. She will represent Hooters for the next year as Miss Hooters International 2011.
The Pageant was held at the Fillmore at the Jackie Gleason Theater in Miami Beach. Dan Cortese hosted the event with a celebrity panel of judges including television personality Leeann Tweeden, Dallas Mavericks star Shawn Marion; UFC Octagon Girl Arianny Celeste, actor Verne Troyer and the Only Female Scout in the NBA, model Bonnie-Jill Laflin.
Bullz-Eye was again offered the opportunity to have near-exclusive online media coverage of this remarkable event. We were allowed access to some of the top girls prior to the pageant for photoshoots on the lavish Fontainebleau grounds during the Bud light Pre pageant welcome party. Special thanks goes out to Mike Harris and Brian Dunlap of Anheuser Busch for the assistance in their pool side cabana, and to Rachel Kelly for styling of the lovely Hooters models. Also, special thanks once again to Alexis Aleshire for all the invaluable PR assistance!
The top five winners included: 1st Runner Up, Janet Layug, Hooters of North Lakeland, Florida; 2nd Runner Up Sam Arena, Hooters of Cumberland in Atlanta; 3rd Runner Up Alex Dumrauf from Hooters of Clearwater; 4th Runner Up, Chelsie Hurst, Hooters of Saginaw, Michigan. Rounding out the top ten finalists in no particular order are Crystal Cunningham, Hooters of Downtown Nashville; Victoria Brown, Hooters of Baltimore; Casey Luckey, Hooters of South Lakeland, Florida; Juliete Cabrera, Hooters of Doral in Miami, and Afton Storton, Hooters of Anaheim. Lina Nguyen, from Downtown Toronto, was selected as Miss Hooters World, representing Hooters 29 international markets.
Check out the incredible slideshow above of photos from the pageant finals. We start with a photo of the winner, Miss Hooters International 2011 Lindsey Way, along with a photo of her with the other finalists, and then we go through the pageant from beginning to end with tons of beautiful Hooters girls. Make sure you also check back for more photos from the preliminary events along with some great photo profiles of the winner Lindsey Way, and the other contestants we met at the Fontainebleau.
We’re not ones to miss an opportunity to pimp one of our favorite bands from the Great White North, and even better, this clip comes with one of the hottest women ever. EVER. Seriously, who is that blonde in the ’60s mini? Guuuuuuuh. She makes us tingly.
And Neko Case (above), she’s not bad, either. Not bad at all.
As for the clip itself, our two-second internet research says that it is inspired by the 1965 film “Simon of the Desert,” where a man wanting to be closer to God climbs a pillar. That would certainly explain the girl’s clothes, not that they need any explaining. Did we mention the girl in this video is GORGEOUS?
Enough of our heavy breathing. Do some heavy breathing of your own. Happy Friday.

Some people really know how to throw a party and also have the means to do it. Thomas Kramer (also known as TK) has been hosting spectacular parties at his 5 Star Island Mansion for years, and he’s planning a huge bash for the Fourth of July. All of his parties feature tons of beautiful women and party girls and a much smaller group of successful men, and part of the proceeds for this party will go towards relief for the earthquake victims in Haiti. You can go to World of TK for more information on how to purchase tickets for this exclusive event or donate directly to the Haiti victims.
We’ve posted some photos from TK’s last party at 5 Star Island where our current Featured Model, Rose Chiauzzi attended, and below you can see a video prepared by TK’s staff for the last party. With a spectacular location, amazing guests and great music, everything is possible!
I spoke with TK this week to ask him about the upcoming Fourth of July party and I started with the selection of the charity. He explained, “I’m working closely with Michael Capponi, and part of the proceeds of whatever ticket sales we have will go to Haiti and the people in the camps, and that’s our main objective, to address the immediate needs of the earthquake victims.” TK hosts numerous charity events at 5 Star Island through his Thomas Kramer Foundation, saying that “it’s made for parties and events” so he takes advantage of that for charitable causes as well.
The party will be held on 5 Star Island, which we visited recently with the Bullz-Eye Bikini Team. TK told me how back in the 90s this island was used as a “waste bin” by Miami Beach until he bought up most of the homes on the island and began the process of transforming it into one of the most luxurious and exclusive residential areas in South Florida. TK is also known for his development South Pointe, which helped to transform South of Fifth neighborhood of South Beach with high-rise luxury apartments.
I asked TK what guests can expect at his Fourth of July party, and he said, “The greatest group of beautiful girls you’ve ever seen in bikinis all over this world! So far about 250 female guests are attending.” Women get in to all of his parties for free, but they need to apply for tickets. TK explained the importance of the ratio of having many more women compared to the small number of male guests make these parties. “That’s part of my whole pitch. I’m having people flying in from Saudi Arabia, Germany, London and from all over the world for my parties because they know the ratios are quite favorable for the boys at my events. I just don’t let anyone in like night clubs and that’s why I do events at my house.”
He also explained the importance of networking and how the parties he throws are more than just a great time. He’s sees his work and his lifestyle as intricately intertwined – “It’s a mindset. For me, it’s all one. You don’t divide it. My main work is networking. Instead of traveling through the world, nonstop, like most executives, I have the world come to me. With honey you catch bees, and that’s what I’m doing.”
This of course, is an added benefit for the people who purchase tickets to his events. Not only are they surrounded by beautiful women in the ultimate party atmosphere, the networking opportunities with the other guests are significant. “I have the highest average of billionaires per party than anyone else in the world.” He went on to explain: “I’m asking for a competitively high donation because I just want to have a certain group of people partying with my girlfriends and friends. And I don’t want to lower the standards and make the hurdle to low. You want less people and therefore higher quality and more beautiful girls, and the 30 to 40 guys you are going to meet here are something you aren’t usually going to be able to mingle with in such an intimate location.”
You can still >purchase tickets to this event and probably have the best Fourth of July you can remember. If you can’t make it, check back here for photos of videos from the party!
