Queeley won in the swimwear, talent, and evening gown categories, in additional to being Miss Photogenic, in the show, regarded as the most prestigious beauty pageant in the English-speaking Caribbean.
we need something new in the ENTERTAINMENT section DNO…. this story is so (yawns) boring!
She still needs our support let’s give it to her
the girl we had this year i knew she wasnt a sure win for the regional pageant … there were other the girls in the pageant tht deserved tht title more than she did
while u saying relax on the girls u lashing out at earlene huh makes u just like the ones killing jacintha relax dominicans we had our good years now is st kitts next year might be another country. thats y girls wont be interested in these pageants its painful
Hi
Whoever you are ‘shut up everyone’ please hope that I do not find out who you are and I am going to track you and find you. Please hope that I do not because when I DO I will sue you for calling my name in this public forum rubbish going on in DNO. Please leave me out of this nonesense going on on DNO.
I am still yet to understand why people are talking so much about Earlene in this thing. I thought this was a forum where constructive criticism took place. All that I have noticed here is people who probably have no work to do or who do not know what it is like to be on stage, just bringing down the girls. I do not appreciate my Dominican public bringing down the queen. Remember that Jacintha Fagan is Miss Dominica and we all have to accept that and support her as we can. She did not judge herself and we have to accept that the judges decision is final and there is nothing that these comments can do to change this.
We should not be looking at who should have wone and who did what. My God the Miss Dominica Pageant is over and judged so stop talking about the girls this way. For those of you fighting among yourselves on DNO, please stop this is not a good image for our country. I think we should all offer our assistance to Jacintha instead of criticizing her. I personally support her and have given my full support to her and her chaperone and will continue to do so because she is the queen and I would love to see Dominica do well at this pageants. Remember it is not about Jacintha it is about Dominica. So Please stop this name calling and defaming of character and show your support to the queen.
i respect charlene but ur girl need to relax she came in after jacintha tell her relax. the things u say on face book oh my ur dress being remade and all that is not called for every body picks up other styles and make one. Erlene can do better than that. whats wrong with miss dominica using other contestants clothes or stlye the show is done and she won move on. so miss charlene dont sue talk to ur girl instead her comments on face book is sad
Charlene Whosss sue..lord you all in Dominica lord help us. But Charlene if you are helping the currently Ms.Dominica and her trainer why then didn’t you all loan the girl the dress or assist in strenghtening her overall performance. I find your comments to be very confusing but any ways Charlene let me know how case comeout with whom ever you going i sue.
ok pple to settle all this crap, im goin up next yr for miss dominica!!
Puss well tell me what you going todo for your talent..Is ms. Aduris going to train u love
“dominica fails to shine”….well DNO that is not a very nice thing to say…
TRUE they should have said “Miss dominica ALSO RAN”
With all that talk, I would have loved to see the score sheets of Miss Dominica 2011. To those of you all who enjoy discrimating and calling others names like ugly and “fat” I dont think that this is the proper forum for you. STOP THAT SHIT! as grown people.
These girls were able to gather the courage and go on stage to represent themselves so that they could make something of them selves. At the end of the day yes the Judges decision is final but the true winner will shine through.
The reigning Queen Ms. Fagan is a very ungrateful child. After all that hard work Kate did with her she dumped her for am amateur. Tell her all those people clothes kate go and get for her because she had no latest clothing, all she had was old school clothing and kate make her look like something, the dam ungrateful
Summer is that you defending your mother Kate. Whosssssss
i was at this show and she really did bad…st.kitts was excellent. she left everyone mouth wide open,
goood girls
@ Pageant critic AKA Leandra.. I know your writing oh so good puss..you know dam well what the Malcolm Stephen girl name..dow come with that Malcolm Stephen girl whossss..Anyways puss if the Malcolm Stephen girl had gone up man oh man..you telling me she would have done better with the crow she was crowing on stage hence the girl did that same rubbish for ms.teen dominica back then. and that walk lord.. Again those expert they have in DA need to listen to folks that have the international experience like myself because years when you have good girls representing DA then everyone take credit hence deflecting on the fact that these girls were strong from the back so even if you put a bag on the head they will still do well. When you have representatives that aren’t so strong and you have coaches training them like they in a Ms.teen dominica show then you have a problem. All the other countries does use dresses from the other contestants for the representative so why can DA do the same and the other girls don’t get on selfish. Audris Jon Baptist Girl you need to give Kate her position back and make Kate continue doing what she did to see the true talent in that young lady and Audris just need to stick to Ms.Teen Dominica show because its clear she doesn’t have the skills needed. Talkin from the voice of someone who knows best. This is my time Puss…….
Hi
I am really sorry that you have baptised me fourty plus years ago with a name but I’m so sorry to say that I am not leandra, and furthermore, I am not female and leandra is a female name, right. Nice try though but you should have simply asked me what my name or sex was and I would have obliged to tell you. My comment stands that the present queen in my professional opinion needs to work a bit harder and concentrate on her strengths. I honestly believe that if she does this then she will be successful at her two other pageants.
Well puss you song like a woman.. a dirty marko in deed whosss.. well your comment can stand or fall thats your business movay marko..as i said before Ms.leandra you can’t fool me.
Anyway, Rosilia from Capuchin was my carnival queen! (poise, looks, character, intelligence)
Pam i agree with you. Rosilia was the queen i think where she messed up with in the question section needless to say i think she should have won Handsdown because there wasn’t a clear winner and i also think she would have need justice in representing Ms. Dominica in the regional competition this year..
I not surprised she did not do well, and it’s so disappointing that after a superp queens like marcia, nakita, mara, leandra that dominica is doing so poorly in pageants. I would reevalaute the selection criteria for Ms. Dominca inorder to ensure a suitable girl be picked as Ms Dominica to represnet us. I was at the 2011 show and felt cheated out of my $40. Shame, shame, shame,
The chaperon that change thats the problem!
my thoughts exactly….our past queens represented very well and its sad that miss fagan couldnt even cop one award
marcia, mara, leandra and nakita were top
go next next year
dominicans need to to relax can you all ppl justgive jacitha a break i hope when she come back home with the two other regional tittle you all will not say anything best of luck jacitha you will be greatly rewarded soon and as one door closes another one opens
wow this is surely causing alot of talk..lets see where do I begin???If she did not do something good then she would not have won in Dominica to begin with..
second where does earlene and miss national trail come in here ??earlene too fat and walking like a damn snake she sliding form side to side like a cannnaaa stupesss!!!is that what you all want to represent Dominica overseas…and lets speak about poise and charm,and speech remember how they could not even answer thioer quesions ???come onnn give Jacintha a break!!!
then on madd comments about the “new ” chap???!!!!she is annoying,a trouble maker and she does not listen!!I personally know her she is a hard worker true but she lacks the calling and dedication for regional pagents!!!stupes!!!
and jacintha will do well i dont think marcia womn this pagent last year as well did I hear all this DRAMA!!!???? GIVE THE GIRL A BREAK!!
so many ppl fail to realise the hard wok and expense that comes with pagents if DFC did a better job of giving her more money then she would have ahd better quality the poor girl has to literally take money form her account for some of those epenses….is anyone sponsoring anything all those who aare talkin and giving negative comments should be on the stage i would want to see u’ll do better….
And one more thing….leave her the hell alone….she will prove u all wrong!!!stupes shait man..what ua all can do better all Dominicans worth is to criticize and give ppl bad name and ask them to do beter they cant she will keep rising wait and see and that girl kayann however her name is spelt did not win not one crowmn nor place did we hear anything??
@ Brown Sugar: Eh beh you have time to study these people papa.
Anyway…Kayann is doing her degree (maybe done by now), Lander, Bruno, Walters, etc., etc,all with university education after the pageants (and Jacinta is on her way). So this is what is important, these young ladies are go getters and pageantry does not and will never define who and the class of women they are.
So let’s grow up people, shall we? Give the girls a break.
I agree with you 100% let them continue to check those girls they better off than them…
babes, who ever you are, not doing any justice to poor jacinta, so b quiet!
earleine is fat? did i hear you right? so now people’s shape and size included in your mess? you must be one of earline’s haters. I have never met her but i think she is extravagant, she has poise and she would have done a much better job than that mess what’s her face did this past weekend. Didn’t you see the talent? it was boringggggggggggg… Even the commentators were like she it was bad. She gave the impression that she was gonna do a dance or a song but she came playing that boring a$$ pan. At least if she wanted to play the pan why didn’t she play an up-tempo song like one of the new calypso’s? Don’t be bias yo, yeah she might be your girl etc but she was terrible on the night in question so don’t try to bash earline to make jacinta look good, it ain’t happening…..
I am not bashing earlene honey….she is not was not and will not ever be in the shoes off noe close to jacintha give credit where it is fue she cannot walk!!!!she is fat and has a hell of a forehead to match…..
on the other hand i was not at the show did not see it so who am i to be the judge of it right??but give the girl a break if it was earlene we would haev heard worse comments…she di her best ok??
and it seems to me that ure an earlene fan i mentioned other ppl u did not speak about them so dont come tellin me about jaci being my girl she ROCKS!!!K?
I am not a fan of any of the girls. I will say Earleine is a very very beautiful girl. When i see her I don’t see a fat person not do i see a big forehead.
We need to stop being so hateful and judgmental towards people. And you talk BROWNSUGAR ask yourself if you better looking that any of the persons u criticizing.
Both girls are great.
Shut up her sponsor National Credit Union giving her money she not using her funds. In the beginnning when there was no chereron. And besides, How you think Miss st,kitts chaperon getting paid? Miss St.Skittas her self is paying for their consultancy service.
dat noot true, i heard they are some kinda of family (sisters i thinks) so she helping her sister. but d girl does do pageant consulting all over the region oui
if Earlene soooooo bad and soooooo fat why jacintha couldnt come up with her own idea for a dress and she had to steal Earlene’s design, which looks HORRIBLE on her by the way because she doesn’t have the curves to carry it. it having a FLAT stomach and hips is fat well papa I WANT TO BE FAT TOO!!!
stupesss…. that wasn’t jacintha’s crown and so she will NOT win another
Jacinta is sweet, but I think Labassiere had more of that ‘flair’ for pageantry. Anyway, what’s done is done. We should only encourage the young lady. And why did she
diss’ her chaperone,is this true? Is someone ill advising?
Sorry girl, all that pressure, you do not deserve that, its not your fault. You are trying hard I imagine. Hope you do better in the other pageants, or if you feel you cannot make it, leave it (Pageant) alone and let the haters represent Dominica.
I SECOND THAT aaaaaammmmmmeeeennnn!!!!!
Pageantry sure brings out the worst in people
AFTER A QUEEN LIKE MARCIA , THIS IS HORRIBLE. SHE SURE FAILEEEEEEEEEED TO SHINE.
Dominica failed to shine! does that surprise anyone?
DOES ANYONE REMEMBER KAYAN TOUSAINT? THE WORST MISS DOMINICA/ CARNIVAL QUEEN 2009! – SHE COULDN’T SPEAK AND SHE WASN’T EVEN PRETTY AND HAD A HARD BODY! …I’VE SEEN HER RECENTLY AND SHE LOOKS HORRIBLE – SHE HAS GOTTEN FAT – YOU WOULD NEVER SAY SHE WAS A ‘BEAUTY’ QUEEN
so true lol
who can’t remeber Kayan?The queen that didn’t bring home a NOT ONE reginal crown……
But who designed that ugly green dress? Best she had used the red dress she had in Tortola? She won best dress there? If she had stuck with her Chaperon from the Ms.dominica show, she would have done much better. At least place. I understood that her “new” chaperon changed her talent, dress, swim wear etc. This new chaperon knows nothng about pageants but she dissed her former chaperon for this new one and she made a fool of herself and Dominica. Hope she learns her lesson and takes advice for the future pageants. We wish you luck for the next ones and please carry the legacy of Nakita, Leandra, Mara and Marcia.
why are you ppl bashing the girl like this?i am a vincy ,i was at the show and she did ok.i think she has the potential to do well .the only prob was that the other girls had better stuff than hers ie,swimwear ,evening gown ect.i dont know her budget but with better stuff she can do well.one important element of winning a pageant also is a good chaperone who communicates well with you,who guide but at the same time isn’t too bossy.another thing is we tend to run down each other because of skin color.u see a light skin person and u like her we need to stop this.let the girl strive .i was there u guys were not. it takes good courage to go on a foreign stage and still perform as well as she did.
wow…i wish dominicans would support their own people like this. can u imagine what would happen if miss fagan reads all of this? the very people shes trying to represent blasting her down? and if she had won the crown everyone would be singing and dancing clapping and shouting “our queen”! she didnt do well…so what…she represented us and for that we should be greatful and cheer her on and motivate her to do better…not blast her down and tell her how much we dont think she deserved to be queen. i am sure non of you on here applied to be a carnival queen contestant, so if you dont have the heart to do it your self shut the hellllll up and if you have anything to say let it be words of encouragement! miss fagan, you are beautiful, we would like to thank you for representing us. even if you didnt come back with the crown or an award at least we kno that u tried your best. just keep on improving on yourself and your skills and your day to shine will come…dont worry about these comments, hopefully they are not the voice of dominica…dominica has under 75000 people…86 comments on here…half of which are bad…hopefully that’s just the ignorant and insensitive few that we have on the island…but dominicans are usually friendly and kind hearted people…when going to your pageant think of those people…those who encourage you, those who smile at you, those who are there for u… on behalf of all the negative commenters here i apologize…what i said is what they all really meant to say :-)
Mis Fagan dont give up 2 more shows work hard you can win one. last year dominica didnt place in Miss Caribbean Culture but went on to win jaycees
but she won prizes!!!
i agree that she did not do her bes i support our queen but i really think that she could have done better …ps can someone answer me this question who won in 2009
Lets say she might do better, but where is the talent and intelligence to go with that, beauty is skin deep. It takes a little more that that to win the show. and clearly Miss st. Kitts has the full package. Are we forgetting who had the tittle of miss intelligence and best talent maybe, just maybe she would have done better. It seems like those two go hand in hand when in it comes to winning a show. Sorry Miss Fagan you are caught up in that mess the judges put you in. The committee has to do better than that and should not put all the contestant to that if they choose the girl before hand they wanted to win. Now who is suffering through it all. Young girls planning on going up for miss Dominica should beware you might be the next victim to go what Miss fagan is going through. Judges stop cheating or are you all part of the plot with the committee?
YOUR NENEN :
miss photogenic wasnt urs best in dress wasnt urs ok lol am loving this… send earlene where best swim suit wasnt hers they go eat her ass out there lol wooosh
Better luck next time Jacinta. We are with you 100% Just stay positive.
@ cay jacinta wont do well the next time tell me
Miss Dominica this year is just not up to par, just not queen material, come on never have Dominica done so bad what the hell revoke the title that just what we get when we cheat. this girl is lacking shiat man.
Miss Caribbean World from St. Kitts is a different girl, Come to SKB to see why they are wining.
for thos of us who cant come just tell us nuh
So just tell us why they are winning because you seem to see something we don’t know about. Plus, we can’t come so just say. St. Kitts & Nevis deserved the crown true, but that dress was very ugly, she didn’t deserve it. Anyway, Jacintha, you need to change your talent with those steel pans darling! Other than that, you were good and I enjoyed watching the show. Best of luck in the other pageants!!
@ Dominicanewsonline
Because she didn’t win don’t mean she didn’t Shine!
She did her best and she was grate on stage you Jealousy People!!!!!!!!!!
She was a mess! I listened to the show. She changed all her stuff talent ect. The girl played pan for her talent and it was a mess! Even the commentators said so.
She should have just practiced /strengthen and used her same stuff from the Dominica show and she would have done much better.
Then again when you just bowl out the chaperone who was responsible to make you win in Da and place 2nd in Tortola with other prizes you don’t expect to do anything good.
she didn’t deserve to win locally that’s y,
GRATE???????????
sorry to burst your bubbles but she was horrible. Her talent was veryyy boring and she copied earline’s dress design. Yeah she has a beautiful smile but what else? That pan thingy she did put me to sleep literally. I was seating in my apt in the bronx wondering WTH is up? still waiting for that one ounce of excitement from her that never came so no one is jealous…. and she DIDN’T SHINEEE, SHE WAS HORRIBLEEE AND STIFF..
Puss Audris that teach her that talent.tell me what talent Audris have herself to be making up talent for people.LOL
nice smile or teeth just big
I was thinking the same thing this heading is just wotless
I think Miss Fagan needs some more work in order to get there. I looked at the show last evening via the web and was very taken aback when I saw a replica or Earlyn labassier’s dress. This is something else best they had ask the girl to borrow her dress instead of trying to do a copy cat. And the talent, she is a Dominican not a jamaican what an embarassment with the steelpan she playes and the jamaican skanking. What is wrong with our chaperones nah, some of them not seeking advice. If I was jacintha chaperone I would ask for help.
borrow dress? people go online all the time an take designs from the net to their local symstress…whats ur point? Earlene got best dress in the show so i see nothing in Jacintha liking the design…people are free to choose what desings they wanna wear
I never said something was wrong but what was not right is that in the description the commentator said the dress was designed by Jacintha and chaperone. Come on don’t be ignorant. Nothing wrong in liking the design but give credit where credit is due. Let’s be fair here. I support our queen 100% but when it is wrong we need to say it is wrong.
Boy, I like W’s argument @ W. If DNO will allow me to poke a little humour at this developing “cat fight”/ let me make that observation. W argues like the typical politician of John Kerry’s caliber; “I voted for the $87 billion (for the troops) before I voted against it”.
W first asks, “what is wrong with her shaperone?” Then, in reply to hihi who only asks, what’s her point, she stated, “I never said something wrong but what was not right” (ha, ha, ha.) Come on Francisco, laugh with me. She then concluded by saying that, “I support our queen 100% but when it is wrong we need to say it is wrong”. My dear W, I like you already.
Correction: “chaperon”. (my error)
The chaperone who made her win MISS DA and 2nd place in Tortola resigned. Ask miss dominica why. Thats why she will now be embarrassing dominica now every where she goes WITH HER NEW CHAPERONE.
Cheating clearly does not make it easy on the poor girl. The judges in Dominica need to go back to the drawing board and stop cheating. Now the queen has to work so hard to fit in. I feel sorry for her. She did not deserve to win and now it is weighing on her shoulders to please Dominica. Sorry Miss Jacintha. I would give up and stop trying to please Dominica.
u see the same thing when some one not deserve something it really comes ou that was stephens crown all the way miss fagan dont have what it takes to go out there and bring the crowns home miss fagan if i was in ur place i would quite now save our country from being embrass please
Please, don’t be mean to the young lady. She can only give her best. Thanks for representing, Ms Fagan. We are proud of you. There can only be one winner. Ms St.Kitts swept the entire field from Jamaica to Venezuela. She was that good. Just hold your head up high; wheel and come again with brand new evening wear, talent and swim suit. Believe in yourself. Jah bless!!
i agree wit u Sout man…it is obvious the miss St kitts n Nevis came out wit a bang since she won mostly all the segments among all the competitors..Jacintha best of luck in your other pageants
Nature isle take the skin crown and put it on your head nuh..stupes
stephens crown? you mean the fish swimming on the stage! Please!
come on, don’t be insultive. The girl of Malcolm stephen was very very good and I would tell you as someone who has been involved in pageants not only in Dominica but regionally and internationally, she, the stephens girl labasier really should have won the show. I would have also placed the young lady from portsmouth before the present queen but again the judges decision is final. sometimes I wonder how the judges feel after they see they have made a mistake.
As a critic who has written for magazines my professional oppinion is that Miss Fagan needs to have more preparation done for her pageants and stick to her strengths. Steelpan for sure is not her strength and if she is not comfortable with something, do not let her wear it. I got the feeling(I was at the show) that she was uncomfortable in the swimwear which was a bit too revealing. all these little things count. And I do agree with W that the dress was infact a copy of labasier’s evening gown which was a gorgeous piece and whe I saw it on stage I said omg this dress was not designed by Ms fagan because I had seen it already at the Miss Dominica pageant. So please if you want miss Dominica to succeed, if someone knows her tell her seek advice from others who may be better and I know Dominica has many good chaperones and people who can assist her team.
@ Pageant critic AKA Leandra.. I know your writing oh so good puss..you know dam well what the Malcolm Stephen girl name..dow come with that Malcolm Stephen girl whossss..Anyways puss if the Malcolm Stephen girl had gone up man oh man..you telling me she would have done better with the crow she was crowing on stage hence the girl did that same rubbish for ms.teen dominica back then. and that walk lord.. Again those expert they have in DA need to listen to folks that have the international experience like myself because years when you have good girls representing DA then everyone take credit hence deflecting on the fact that these girls were strong from the back so even if you put a bag on the head they will still do well. When you have representatives that aren’t so strong and you have coaches training them like they in a Ms.teen dominica show then you have a problem. All the other countries does use dresses from the other contestants for the representative so why can DA do the same and the other girls don’t get on selfish. Audris Jon Baptist Girl you need to give Kate her position back and make Kate continue doing what she did to see the true talent in that young lady and Audris just need to stick to Ms.Teen Dominica show because its clear she doesn’t have the skills needed. Talkin from the voice of someone who knows best. This is my time Puss…….
PS: Audris i see your pics from the media even in st.vincent and lord puss..LOL.. Whosss..That all i got to say..
Miss Dominica does not have the talent and skills to do well overseas. She is very intelligent but one also must have presence, beauty, glam, poise and style to do well in these regional pageants and she is lacking badly in these areas. I am still wishing her well in her other competitions but i am not holding my breath
Had she won would you have made this statement?
Sorry to say that but Miss Dominica will not win any thing again. I heard through the grape vine her chaperone resigned!
With her chaperone she got second place in Tortola, along with miss photogenic and best evening wear. Thats the same chaperone who assisted her in winning the miss dominica show.
She should take a leaf from miss st.kitts book. Dont diss people!
congrats to miss st kitts, sugar isle, on their win in the competition..I guess this year is der’s..Last year was ours!!! we can’t win everything!!!
This girl from St. Kitts is going to sweep all competitions. She is just too good. Simply the best.
it’s not the same girl who won miss caribbean world
Same thing I was thinking. I watched the show live via the internet and dayum, she deserved it. Ms Fagan better wake up and smell the cofferr
You know why she is good. MONEY TALKS. her chaperon has a pageant consutancy firm, so she hired her and thats why it is paying off.
Mark my words, she will win miss caribbean cuture in st.kittss and miss jaycees in Antigua.
Setting your expectations high are you? Putting it in her head like you all did in Dominica. She might, but seeing that she did not really win back home, she will have a lot of work to do to make it happen. Sorry
You got it right. They take nothing for granted in SKB. Besides the staging of their show is different and more advanced than the Dominica show.
Ms St Kitts has everything going for her – beauty, brains, talent – the works. However, the 1st runner-up will be participating in the Miss Caribbean Culture show. It is customary for the 1st runner-up to enter one of the regional pageants (not the big shows though). Ms St Kitts can therefore focus on her next big show – Miss Jaycees. I think that with some more work in certain areas, Miss Dominica should be able to place in the remaining pageants. Her chaperone should seek assistance from other persons with experience, as we all want her to excel.
