She represented well. Ms. Baptist Miss Carival Pageant and ended up walking away with all the other regional crowns so Ms. Odessa trust and believe the rest of the titles are yours. Hold strong my dear
I thought she would get Miss Photogenic
Congratulations! You have done well to be first runner up. Good luck when you participate in another competition.
Waste of money!
This young lady is so classy. She represented Dominica very well. I am proud of her. Personally she did everything possible to win this crowd and she deserved that crown.. Odessa Dominica loves you. You are our Miss Carival.
I suspect they just did not want to give it to Dominica seeing we one two years in a row. lol She will still be our queen and she did well. There are other pageants, which I know for sure she is going to bring a crown back home to Dominica. Congratulations Odessa and continue to shine.
Well done!!!
Congratulation to Miss Odessa Elie, Well done
