2010 Miss International Elizabeth Mosquera: almost ready to move on

2010 Miss International Elizabeth Mosquera....a lot lovelier now!

Aside from becoming the sixth Venezuelan to win the Miss International crown, Elizabeth Mosquera holds the distinction of being the best performer among the Top 5 of Miss Venezuela 2009 (Adriana Vasini placed 3rd in Miss World 2010, Jessica Guillen won Miss Atlantico International 2010, Mariangela Bonnani was a Top 7 finalist of Miss Earth 2010 and Marelisa Gibson was a non-placer in Miss Universe 2010).

Right now, she is in Chengdu, China acting as big sister to the large number of delegates vying for Miss International 2011. By late next week, she will be turning over her crown to the next winner. From that point, she will be more than ready to move on and embrace the opportunity-filled life of a former international beauty queen. I reckon that she has what it takes to succeed in whatever field she decides to focus on after her reign. With her beautiful smiling face and warm disposition, things can only get better for this lady.

Buena suerte en su vida despuĂ©s de Srta. International! 🙂

Alexandria Mills became the 3rd Miss United States of America to clinch the Miss World crown after she was proclaimed winner over 114 other delegates in the just-concluded finals of Miss World 2010 at the Crown Convention Center in Sanya, China. Emma Wareus of Botswana placed 1st Princess, while Adriana Vasini of Venezuela earned 2nd Princess honors.

Alexandria takes over as Miss World from last year’s winner, Kaiane Aldorino of Gibraltar. She now has the distinction of being the 60th Miss World and its Diamond Anniversary titleholder.

Congratulations, Alexandria!

Here are my Top 25 Favorites for Miss World 2010

Tonight, the 60th Miss World will be crowned at the Crown Convention Center in Sanya, China. This year’s winner will have the honor of being the pageant’s Diamond Anniversary winner, on top of besting 114 other ladies for the crown.

Honestly, it is difficult to do armchair judging for Miss World because it has the reputation of being either too predictable or the exact opposite. Pageant fans holler that certain countries are always favored year after year or that one or two delegates would always take a shine among the judges and become favorites in all fast-track events. This year, Miss Norway is an obvious high scorer, having topped the Miss World Top Model, aside from placing high in the Beach Beauty and Sports categories. She is now assured of being called among the Top 25.

All things being equal, here are the 25 candidates (in alphabetical order) I have selected as my personal favorites for this year. Many thanks to Global Beauties for the images of the ladies below…..

It’s close to impossible predicting who among them will be the winner, but I would hazard a guess and handpick the ladies of Norway, Ireland, Puerto Rico, United States and Belgium to come out on top. If you notice, three of them are fast-track winners which give a clearer hint on who the organizers would love to see as Miss World 2010.

Good luck to all the girls!!! 😉

Miss Venezuela 2010: recap of winners!

Marelisa Gibson Villegas, 20, from Miranda, was proclaimed Miss Venezuela Universe 2010 and will attempt for a back-to-back-to-back victory in the Miss Universe Pageant 2010 in a yet undisclosed venue. On the other hand, Adriana Vasini, 22, from Zulia, earned the right to represent her country in the Miss World 2010 in Nha Trang, Vietnam by virtue of winning the Miss Venezuela World crown, while Elizabeth Mosquera, 18, from Trujillo, was the 3rd victor after being named Miss Venezuela International and will gear up for next year’s Miss International to be held in Japan and China. Completing the Top 5 are 1st Runner-Up Mariangela Bonnani of Tachira and 2nd Runner-Up Jessica Guillen of Amazonas.

Actually, I was able to pick 4 of the 5 winners in a previous blog. I missed Elizabeth Mosquera (who I personally placed just in the Top 10) and thought that Flory Diez of Anzoategui would take at least a runner-up slot. Just the same, I think that the new set of winners will set a higher benchmark level for the next round of international finals in 2010.

Congratulations to all the winners! I’m dead sure that at least one of them will win one of the big crowns next year. I’m going for a gut-feel and predict that Marelisa Gibson might just score her country’s 7th Miss Universe title.

Ready for Miss Venezuela 2010?

These Venezuelan beauty organizers don’t enjoy basking in glory for long periods of time. They truly take beauty pageants seriously and proof of this is the finals of Miss Venezuela 2010 scheduled later this month.

You see, Miss Venezuela Organization President Osmel Sousa and his team of experts want their queens to be 110% ready for their respective competitions (Miss Universe, Miss World & Miss International) abroad so they always hold the national finals way ahead of other countries. This gives them a lot of time to “perfect” the ladies and make them battle-proof, not to mention drop dead gorgeous.

Take a look at some of the contestants for Miss Venezuela 2010. If you don’t call these potentially high quality delegates for next year’s tilts, then I don’t know what topnotch competitiveness means.
