Venus Raj : Twitter Worldwide Trend - Twitter World Wants Her to Take Home the Miss Universe Crown and Lift the Philippines' Spirit After Hostage Tragedy

Miraculously, amidst the nation's dampened spirit brought about by the tragic ending of the hostage-taking crisis at Quirino Grandstand last night, Venus Raj - the Philippines' bet in the 2010 Miss Universe pageant culminating tomorrow - suddenly became a Worldwide Trending Topic on the social networking site, Twitter.


Practically sandwiched by two disgraceful worldwide trending keywords from the Philippines, Venus Raj's rise on Twitter somehow provides a glimmer of hope for the nation. If the hostage-taking drama tarnished the image of the Philippines in the international community, then maybe - just maybe - Venus (as an image of what an ideal Filipino is) will be able to bring back the world's trust in our country.
