Miriam Odemba of Tanzania (right) when she was named Miss Air to Karla Henry's Miss Earth back in 2008.
Back in 2008, Miss Earth had the host delegate for a winner. And nobody was closer to spoiling the victory of Karla Henry than her 1st Runner-up (
or Miss Air) Miriam Odemba of Tanzania who many pageant watchers thought was to become Africa’s 2nd ME titleholder after Kenya’s Winnie Omwakwe (
who replaced the dethroned Dzejla Glavovic) of 2001.
Miriam has the fun and engaging personality all her own. Most of the candidates agreed that she would be a nice fit for the crown. But then again, the Cebuana in Karla was not to be denied the bragging rights as the first Filipina to be named top environmental warrior. She more than nailed the Q&A. And so, when it was time for the last two women standing, the crowd at the Philippine Centennial Expo in Clark, Pampanga knew that the Tanzanian would definitely come in second.
And while Miss Odemba was hoping she could pull the rug from under Miss Henry’s feet, it just wasn’t meant to be at the time.
Anyways, check out one of her latest fashion pics below.

Two former Miss Earth Beauties will battle it out for Miss Multiverse 2015 in Congo. There’s Miss Philippines Angelee delos Reyes from Miss Earth 2013 (Top 8) of course. And then there’s Miriam Odessa of Tanzania, Miss Air 2008. Who will prevail between the two of them?
