Final Predictions:

From taking a global look at the delegates, their media coverage, fast tracks and U decide videos here are my predictions for Miss World 2006. I have a special emphasis on the Caribbean. Keep in mind that Miss World is a highly unpredictable pageant and anything is possible!

 Queen of the Caribbean:            Puerto Rico

1^st- Miss Puerto Rico

Miss Puerto Rico probably has the biggest fan base of all the Caribbean girls in the competition. Thebyam also has managed to place highly in two fast track events.  She is a professional model who knows how to carry herself well.  She is also a nurse, which puts her in hot contention for the beauty with a purpose title also. Her U decide video was very good too.   She is definitely mature enough to handle the things a Miss World must. Add the fact that Thebyam has been preparing for a whole year and you can see why this young lady is the top contender of the Queen of the Caribbean title.

2^nd -Miss Jamaica

Miss Jamaica also has a strong fan base. She has impeccable interview skills and handles herself with grace and charm. She is the obvious choice to me for the judges’ choice from the Caribbean. Sara definitely could handle the responsibilities that come with being a Miss World. She balances intellect and beauty and would be a great role model. Her U decide video was beyond perfection and can win over any doubters. My only regret is that she did not shine from earlier in the competition and this may be to her detriment

 

 

3^rd- Miss Martinique

 This young lady is what I call a true beauty queen; she easily outclasses the whole region with her stellar beauty and vigour. For this reason she has many admirers across the world that will vote for her! Still she may not have the voting power despite being worthy due to her country size and newness to pageantry. She is very ambitious as she wants to land a cosmetic contract (no problems there!)  and wants to work with her country’s police force in a scientific capacity. Her U decide video has replay value (LOL) She would be an amazing addition to the Miss World Organisation however she does not have the level of sophistication that comes with age that Miss Puerto Rico and Miss Jamaica have being adults! Nevertheless, she makes up for it with innocent charm. Stephanie has what it takes to be a star.

 4^th – Miss Bahamas

 Miss Bahamas is beautiful, humble and polished. She is intelligent and a joy to communicate with. She also cracked the fitness fast track and has gotten quite a lot of attention online She is the best Miss Bahamas in recent times. Bahamas does not have a strong voting base and because of the unfortunate incident with the U decide video I feel her best chance to advance will be with the judges’ interview.

  

5^th-Miss Barbados

Miss Barbados has made the best use of the media out of all the Caribbean girls she has managed to place in two fast track events and get publicity out of the designers gown competition also. This has brought recognition to the island. People definitely will be looking for Barbados’ delegate next year.  Barbados does not have a strong voting base and therefore the best chance of them cracking the top sixteen has already passed. Latoya is also one of the youngest delegates in the competition and it does show.   Nevertheless, she has a lot of personality and life to her and should feel proud of her accomplishments at Miss World!  

 6^th – Miss Dominican Republic

 Miss Dominican Republic has a massive fan base also. Dominicans actively support their girls no matter what pageant they participate in. This one will be not different. Paola has already picked up some fans in Asia too which is always to you advantage. Many find her to be quite pretty so her strongest bet to get through on is voting by the public.

Continetal Queens

Queen of the Africa :                        Angola

She is simply amazing.  Very beautiful very charming she levels the competition.

Queen of the Americas:              Venezuela

Probably the winner of this competition Federica has every thing needed to be a Miss World. She even reminds me of Wilneila Forsyth a former Miss World I am sure Osmel will agree that Miss Venezuela is ready for another crown!

Queen of Asia:               India

Probably the only person who can steal the crown away from Venezuela. She is beautiful intelligent and mysterious with the hopes of millions of Indians who share her dream behind her.

Queen of Northern Europe:             Czech Republic

Sexy, Charming, graceful. If this girl were in Trumps pageant, she would be guaranteed a slot in the finals of Miss Universe instantly.  She is the favourite of many across the world.

Queen of Southern Europe:            Lebanon

 She is the darling of the pageant boards and a constant favourite from the beginning of her reign.
