Lucky Wyn-chan!

Wasn't there a big scrum about (last 20 years, maybe) Nisei Week Queens looking more Caucasian than Japanese?
You'd think the voters (whom I'd think are Japanese) would've been a little more Nihon-centric? |
Well, it's just a photo. Real-life, in-person is different.
When I meet the Nisei Week 2007 court later I'll let you know what I think, but the 2006 court was impressive.
In terms of heritage, I believe the most recent applications stated that one has to be of at least 50% Japanese heritage and born in the USA.
Cheers,

I've been watching the ads for the Japan Expo. Do you know if they allow camcorders and/or cameras?
