Cindy Breakspeare is one of three Jamaicans who were crowned Miss World. She won the title in 1976.
With Jamaica’s 50th Year of Independence celebrations under way and with the Summer Olympics falling in the midst of those celebrations, Jamaica also anticipates the staging of the most prestigious beauty pageant in the country.
The Miss Jamaica World (MJW) pageant is set to climax with the Grand Coronation Show on June 2.
Jamaica is an island filled with people not only of varied talents and skill sets but also with beauty.
This year, the MJW team is doubling its efforts to crown a queen who will take home the crown for a fourth time, the first since Lisa Hanna in 1993.
Jamaica’s 50th anniversary, an astounding medal haul at the Olympics and Miss Jamaica as Miss World would make for a brilliant year.
With bigger and more exciting plans in store, Miss Jamaica World franchise holder, Mickey Haughton James, CD, stated, “The drive is on to bring on board sponsors and potentially a title sponsor to enable us to do a special event for Jamaica’s 50. Efforts are being made to stream the event live to the diaspora.”
Happy to be on board
One company which has realised the vision and is once again happy to be on board is the Carimed/Venus Embrace family.
Recently, reigning Miss Jamaica World Danielle Crosskill, alongside newly appointed pageant director Regina Beavers met with Varia Rodney, senior brand manager at Cari-Med to welcome the Cari-Med family back on board. Rodney presented the two with a cheque for $350,000.
This year, the organisation will remain title sponsor of the Beach Beauty competition.
“We have aligned ourselves with our target market; not only the girls that enter the competition but the ones who also watch. We are excited about being on board because MJW signifies beauty with a purpose and fits well with the tag line of Venus Embrace ‘Reveal the Goddess in you’,” said Rodney.
Since the Miss World organisation has rescheduled its dates, the coronation show for the local pageant which is usually set in August or September had to be moved up to facilitate the process of choosing a new queen.
Pre-selections will start as early as Saturday and continue on every
Saturday for the month of March. The final selection of the finalists who will vie for the Miss World crown will be held on Saturday, April 28.
If chosen as pre-selected finalists, the girls will receive free gym training at Spartan Health Club as well as free grooming lessons.
The race is on to see who will be Jamaica’s new queen to commemorate 50 years of Independence.
