Losing beauty queen can’t hide her disappointment

A Colombian beauty queen has become the face of a new wave of memes flooding social media after she failed to mask her disappointment at losing a crowning title.

When it comes losing at anything in life, civility and a good poker face are key to maintaining at least a few shreds of dignity while dealing with defeat.

Vanessa Dominguez appears to have forgotten this after losing the Miss Colombia semi-finals to rival Laura Gonzalez.

Utter disdain for the winner is the most accurate way to describe the look on Dominguez's face as the other woman humbly accepted the title.

The cameramen, not willing to let a good moment of television go to waste, zoomed in on Dominguez as her face devolved into a scowl.

Viewers didn't waste time creating a collection of memes comparing her sullen demeanour to a variety of pop culture references, including Lisa Simpson.
