Miss Universe 2011 in MBS for S'pore GP

The Singapore Grand Prix is set to get an added dose of star power.

Marina Bay Sands (MBS) announced Wednesday that it will play host to newly-crowned Miss Universe 2011 - Leila Lopes from Angola - along with nine other beauties from the pageant.

Lopes' appearance at MBS will be one of her first public appearances as Miss Universe 2011, following her recent victory in Brazil last week.

The 25-year-old will be joined by nine fellow and former Miss Universe contestants at MBS' Finish Line Bar, which is set up exclusively for the F1 period this weekend.

The Finish Line Bar - a 'pop-up' themed lounge concept set up for Formula One aficionados - is located at Bay Level Promenade South Entrance of The Shoppes and is open to the public.

The entire Miss Universe entourage will be making special appearances at meet-and-greet sessions at the Finish Line Bar, allowing fans to snap a quick shot with the ladies at these dates:

Thursday, Sept 22, 6.30pm-7.30pm
Friday, Sept 23, 2pm-3pm
Saturday, Sept 24, 4pm-5pm
Sunday, Sept 25, 1pm-2pm

The nine Miss Universe participants accompanying Miss Universe 2011 Leila Lopes are first runner-up, Miss Ukraine 2011 (Olesia Stefanko), Miss Ireland 2010 (Rozanna Purcell), Miss Japan 2010 (Maiko Itai), Miss India 2010 (Ushoshi Sengupta), Miss Malaysia 2010 (Nadine Ann Thomas), Miss Mexico 2009, (Karla Maria Carrillo Gonzalez), Miss New Zealand 2009 (Katie Taylor), Miss China 2010 (Tang Wen) and Miss Singapore 2009 (Rachel Kum).

Apart from the meet-and-greet session, punters will also be able to sip special F1 cocktails created by the bar team at The Moluccas Room, one of the newly opened waterfront restaurants. Live screenings of the races will also be broadcast.
