The Razor Interview
On Tuesday, former beauty queen Ris Low ended her day on RazorTV's couch, where she gave the online video news channel a no-holds-barred interview.
Topics ranged from her credit card fraud to fellow Miss Singapore world contestant Claire Lee.
Claire Lee had reportedly said Ris Low is a person who is actually really very sweet, very kind and generous. She gave the example of Ris making herbal tea and feeding it to all the contestants during rehearsals.

Razor: Thank you for joining us again, now lets talk about your relationship with Claire Lee, the first runner-up of Miss Singapore World.
Razor: So the two of you were best friends during the pageant days right?
[COLOR="_______"]Ris Low[/COLOR]: Yes
Razor: Can you tell us what's your fondest memory of Claire?
RL: Umm.. That was when she was crying, because she had left her sash at the backstage, and she has no sash, so she was crying and I went over to comfort her.
Razor: So she cried over little things like that? Like leaving her sash behind?
RL: Err.. Yeah. Because the organizer was scolding her yeah, that's when I went over to comfort her and that's when we first talked and become friends.
Razor: Okay, and how has that friendship turned sour?
RL: Er, it turned sour when I realised that she is the one who is bad-mouthing me, talking behind my back, and telling everybody about my case, my stuff and some private confidential stuff that I told her about.
Razor: Are you sure she is the one who leaked it?
RL: Yes, because I heard from the friends of...yeah.
Razor: *interject* Other Contestants?
RL: Yes, other contestants, from the organisers and newspapers, media and... my friends as well.
Razor: So, now, you offered an audio recording of your phone conversation with her to the media. So why did you do that?
RL: I guess its because, part of it was because of revenge, I wanted to get revenge on her but.. Another thing was that I wanted truth to be told, that she is not as simple as you guys think, or she's as simple as you guys see. She tends to be a bit more political in this sense and she don't really care about what people feel.
Razor: Is she popular in the pageant? Like among the contestants?
RL: *Smiling awkwardly and shaking head*
Razor: Would you say that you are more popular than her? Like you have more friends...
RL: I can say that because, I guess because I'm more bubbly, outgoing, cheerful, some people may take me for being a pretentious person, but people who really know me deep down, they would know that I'm that kind of person straight from the start.
Razor: Are you sure umm... Claire Lee was lying about her back injury?
RL: Yeah, because she din went to see the doctor because of her back injury.
Razor: She didn't go to the doctor?
RL: She didn't see the doctor for the back injury, but she went to see a doctor for a fall, but is not for the back injury.
Razor: And you think she's lying?
RL: Yeah, it just so happen that her back injury was...there...
Razor: During our last interview with her, she said you are a kind, you are a sweet and generous person. Okay, so that was a sharp contrast as opposed to what you have told us about her.. So why is that the case?
RL: That's so hypocritical.
Razor: So you think that she is being hypocritical?
RL: Yeah.. Because I think I'm nice to everybody, especially Pilar, because she's an air stewardess, and I will always get honey for her.. honey lime.
Razor: You always get honey for her?
RL: Yeah
Razor: Because she is an air stewardess?
RL: *interject*...And because she always get broken voice.
Razor: Oh.. Okay, okay, alright..
RL: So I will always get stuff like these for people, and get curry puffs whenever there's a rehearsal because we know that we are not gonna eat for the... few hours..
Razor: ...Next few hours right? Have you been nice to Claire before?
RL: I'm nice to everybody in fact.. everyone..
Razor: Okay, okay.. So Claire is not your best friend.. in that way..
RL: It's not as "two best friend, best friend" but just a friend.
Razor: Okay, but she said, she was your best friend. So why is there the difference?
RL: Err... I treat everyone as my best friend actually.
Razor: So, do you think she is the backstabber, in that case.. Or are you the backstabber?
RL: Think she's the one.
Razor: She's the one? She's more of the backstabber?
RL: *Nods head*
Razor: Because she leaked the information to the media?
RL: Yeah, not only she leak the information, she told everybody about it, and that I have a lot of evidences against her. Even her secondary school, poly friends and university friends said the same thing about her.. Being political and being a backstabber.
Razor: So, you know all her friends?
RL: I din know them, but one of the contestants was the one who told me that she know her secondary school friends and that's where they found out.
Razor: Okay, now Claire is the first runner-up, so do you think she deserves to replace you as the representative of
Singapore?
RL: No.
Razor: Why is that so?
RL: I don't think so because beauty and poise she doesn't have any of it. I think Pilar has more of beauty and poise,
character and even self-confidence. I think Pilar would be much more suitable contestant for the Miss Singapore World.
Razor: Did you suggest that to ERM (Organisers)?
RL: Yes, I did, actually.
Razor: You did, and you think Claire is not suitable in your opinion..
RL: Yeah, because she is too tomboy-ish and she doesn't have enough stage experience
Razor: Tomboy-ish is a no-no in a pagaent?
RL: You have to be really girly and...
Razor: Feminine?
RL: Yeah, feminine.. definitely.
