Gia Allemand Wins Bikini Short

Our photo galleries are still going up, but I had to pick through to find photos of Gia Allemand.

Gia won the 2009 Arnold Amateur Bikini Short Class, a decision which has been met with some level of disagreement by many.

And an edit for the commentators!

Here is a photo of another entrant in the bikini class, if you look to the right of her the winner is behind. Physique sports are always subjective, but in my opinion [and others from what I hear] the physique displayed by this entrant seems more ideal. She has a great fit look, and obviously has put many gym hours in.
