Miss Universe in your world

Hats off to Trinity Grammar student Jordan Avramides, who has managed to get Erin McNaught (Miss Universe contestant from Australia 2006) as his year 10 formal date (read here). The amazing thing is that she was his second choice, being extended an invite only after Jennifer Hawkins turned him down!

Now I know a few of our readers are ex-trinity grammar boys, and they are fine, upstanding and gentlemanly types, but even they couldn't have pulled this off. Perhaps young Jordan had some help? After all it seems rather suspicious that only the Telegraph are running the story.

The funniest part of the story is that Jordan already had a date before Miss Mcnaught accepted his invitation and the poor young guy had to take his mother round to effectively dump his old date!

Surely the presence of a supermodel will raise the stakes for the other girls at the formal. As if getting dolled up for the first time wasn't already stressful enough, now they'll have to compete with Versace as opposed to Harts...

My questions however - should he have 'dumped' his old date for a celebrity? Would you have done the same? What should the girl have said to him, when he and his mum arrived?

I think he should NOT have dumped the girl he was already going with.

If you say you are going to be doing something, you should stick to it (I turned down free Creed concert tickets because I'd already organised to visit some people we wanted to become our friends - they are now :)).

ABC radio were suggesting that they should get the guys from the chaser to take her, and cause some havoc on the night!

I think he should have gone with his original date - certainly could have still boasted that he had turned down the model - and impressed the girl he actually knew - how good would it be to know that your date turned down erin mcnaught to go to his formal with you!!!

That's true Ruth, that would be quite an ego booster for the date!

TGS in the media again!

Daily Telegraph is so trashy! Anyway, he shouldn't have dumped the girl.
