Bony Or Beautiful? Miss Universe Australia Finalist, Stephanie Naumoska

Pretty face, but very underweight:

At 1.8 m (5 ft 11 in) tall, she weighs just 49 kg (108 lbs), had a body mass index of just 15.1, well under the official 18 benchmark for malnutrition. She's 19 years old

"She would be categorized as underweight and I would certainly want to be doing an assessment of her diet to make sure she doesn't have some type of eating disorder," dietician Melanie McGrice told local newspapers.
"She needs blood tests, diet analysis and an overall assessment."

Pageant director Deborah Miller said brunette Naumoska, who was defeated in the final by 20-year-old television presenter and model Rachael Finch, had Macedonian heritage, which accounted for her extreme thinness."They have long, lithe bodies and small bones. It is their body type, just like Asian girls tend to be small," Miller said.

Yeah right, I don't see our girls as skinny as her :p

While Naumoska refused to speak to media, nutritionist Susie Burrell told the Herald Sun newspaper there was no such thing as a Macedonian body type.
