    Too much confidence, too many praises, and all that excitement makes the good in one turn soar. Encouragement is all we should give.

    This pageant is not based on who is the prettiest. All these young ladies are beautiful in their own way. Good luck to all of them. May the best win :lol: :lol:!!!!!

    MS. BVI is very brilliant and creative… I would should say watch out for her; she’s the competition; real competition. She is very talented so come good. I live there and I’ve seen her in action so step up the game when it comes to talent. She gives a very good interview also.

      I do not want to bring any body down, but Ms. BVI appears heavy to me. The swimwear round may affect her. Her face looks chubby….. Infer the rest.

    Here’s hoping that Dominica will be as well represented this time around as it was when Nadira was Queen

    • Yes Fada!
      April 6, 2013

      …Indeed, Leslassa has a legacy to keep up to. Nakita, Leandra, Marah, Marcia, Nadira all did well for us…can’t quite remember how many of the ladies copped the Ms Caribbean World title. Good luck Leslassa, prove to me that u got game behind that smile.

    I hope she have something better than what they “let” her win with in Dominica because the people who “let” her win in Dominica have no influence in that competition.

    • Sigh
      April 6, 2013

      Nobody “let” anybody win…. We Dominicans need to stop that pointing finger nonsense. Check the criteria for judging before you go ahead and criticize. This sickens me…

      I’m guessing you think the 1st runner up would have fared better in regional competitions??? Please get a grip!

      lol … so who do you think should have won then? Please inform me who was your perfect candidate?

    USA? Why are the USA there? I would ask if they’re the US Virgin Islands, but they’re USVI not USA.

    By the way, I think Miss Dominica is very beautiful and is the prettiest lady out of them all, she should definitely win :) Good luck!

      It is USVI representing the USA

        April 5, 2013

        Oh ok, I assume you are right. Thank you :)

      • April 6, 2013

        No Miss USA is not representing the USVI don’t you see there is someone from St Croix which is one of the the US Virgin Islands.

    • April 6, 2013

      USA is not representing the USVI.. don’t you see St Croix is in the pageant.

    Isn’t this the Miss CARIBBEAN world pageant? y is USA part of this :?:

    • NYorker
      April 5, 2013

      USA is part of the world, right?

      • Common Sense
        April 7, 2013

        I believe the question is asking why Ms. USA is there seeing as they are not in the CARIBBEAN.

        (I’m pretty sure its Miss. USVI though)

    i want to see if she goin capture that title
    lets wait and see then will give my comment

      Nope, we should support her, encourage her, stand behind her (rather stand with her), let her know that we care so that she could go into the competition feeling and knowing that we are with her and we have her back. If she doesn’t win, we should still embraced because she is our queen and she is a great queen. She is determined, willing, worthy and confident. It is not always about winning or loosing (although winning feel great), it is how you play the game, and this queen is fighter. For my part, I am bursting with confidence. She is going to do well and make us proud. Go for it girl! Peace
