I want to say congratulations to the young men who took part in the show. We always say that the place has no entertainment, and when we get entertained, some of us are not satisfied. The show was not a gay show, regardless to who was or was not gay….. Just remember it is our straight husbands, sons and brothers etc that hooks up with gays. So when we say gay, are we sure which of our men sleep with them…. please d your homework and investigate to see which straight man is their partner…. alot of us would be suprised. I do not support homosexual lifestyle, but I am God to judge them either…. There are many sins we commit everyday under the pretense of holy life and we are so spiritually dead. God bless us and our country Dominica, may we clean up our own mistakes before condemning others.
the person who is accepting these comments for the article could you please make sure you read everything even though these are the views of ppl there shouldnt be comments calling ppl gay and who looking gayer thats wrong!! how dare you accept such edit it dont leave it so i’m so ashamed of dno and what it is turning out to be anywy congrats to these men the show was great
Understanding
February 13, 2012
Pple I understand all those who dont believe or is agaisnt gay but at the same time are you going to judge others which is also a sin and which is one of the biggest thing stressed by god dont judge and he shall not be judged,leave all judgement for the father. i dont expect for pple to like the show but all those who do thats their opinion and you need to learn to respect that. homosexuality as we all know it is an abormination and we all know it but compearing it to other sins to make it look good its not right its wrong its wrong but we cannot hate or make war with pple that is GAY cuz they havent done anything to you. you may nevver know who you meet down in life and may have to help you and what is the person is gay? would you put up a front for all you care they’re not sexually active with you that is just not your business. What if your son turned out to be gay and you tried and make him do all manly things just so he wont turn out gay and still ends up. Are you going to kill, distroy or neglect your child due to that. LOVE makes a different help the child with love at the same time you can let know the GAY pple you dont agree to their sexuality and it not right to god but you cant hate and point fingures at no one its there life not your god gave all of us choices and so just respect and help pple but bashing at pple like this will just make them retaliate more and provock you cuz they kno it upset you. AND PPLE BE REAL THE SHOW WASNT GAY AND BEHAVE YOU GUYS SELF IT WAS A GOOD SHOW. It have queen show giving the winners at queen show scholarships and to become and ambassador for D/A at least it can help the men of D/A to get the same. Who cares if some of the participants were gay but the show wasnt gay. AT the same time pple we should not promote gay but we must accept them for who they are and even if a gay signs up doesnt make the nature and the goal of the show to be gay. Be real christains and not stressing on only one text phrase in the bible to comfort us and our opinions but watch the bible from all angles, so we wont us key text to make war with others and thats the last thing GOD wants us to do.

Watch out for the guys who are getting all uncomfortable about this show, pointing out which one is the most gay etc, etc. They are the ones who are uncomfortable with their sexuality and are simpley projecting. Hats off to the young men who could brave the close-mindedness of our people and produce a show which I heard was excellent. Why so much interest in the men’s sexual preference? We are a bit more enlightened now. Those bashing the guys are usually the ones with skeletonssss in their closet.

AS A PROGRESSIVE DOMINICAN, I HAVE NEWS FOR YOU THAT WE IN DOMINICA HAVE NO TIME OR PLACE FOR A MENTALITY LIKE YOURS AND YOU’RE CERTAINLY NOT SPEAKING FOR ME AS A DOMINICAN.
A HARMLESS TALENT SHOW WHERE MEN ARE NOT HURTING, RAPING, TAKING DRUGS OR SELLING IT TO OTHERS, NOT STEALING PEOPLE’S STUFF, NOT ABUSING OTHERS AND YET DOMINICANS ARE BEING SO UNJUSTLY MALICIOUS AND CRUEL. THAT IS NOT THE DOMINICA THAT I WANT ANY PART OF!!!!!

Please explore other parts of the world, there are many religious, beliefs, cultures, etc out there.

Hearts of to your girlfriend as well I knw she gave you alot of support. Guys coming out to the show alone proved that you are guys. Also to Bram Sanderson, great job as well reping Wesley 100%..

Dominicans are just small minded no wonder no one knows who we are. I do not support gayism coz as the bible say it is an abomination. But it also indicates fairness and honesty. Give jack his jacket. This was never meant to be a gay show but to include the male population in the development of our beloved island. We are already ignoring the natural beauty of things and soon will no longer be called the nature island, so at least give people something to come to Dominica for.
We are the one who speculates and have our children goring up with this stupid mentality from birth of what society expects to be a man thing and a woman thing. I suppose our mind is just as small as our island, and underdeveloped as well. And we will keep in hearing “Dominica? Where is that? Haven’t heard of it”

I am appalled at some of the comments that I have read. I will not dignify them with a response. However I would like to a draw attention to my observations of the pictorial data provided on the show. Please look closely at the appearance of these gentlemen who I think take pride in their appearance… There are no crusty knees, no hairy armpits, no crusty elbows, no untidy hair and there is not a grain of body hair to be found in the groin, legs or anywhere else that mars their appearance in any way. Their clothing falls perfectly and their bodies are taunt and appealing, a fantasy for the onlooker…..I think that the persons responsible for the presentation of the carnival queen contestants could sure use some pointers….. folks the guys have raised the bar! A tough act to follow given what the presenters of the women have put forward so far……if one is not careful onlookers will be tempted to become tourists to see these tasty morsels as opposed to those put on display as carnival queens……. where has all the feminism gone?

this is the reason why dominica’s development always gets stone walled,even when it’s a good thing for dominica,the people critisize the government, however my observation is,the church seem to have gone dumb all of a sudden,is it really hypocrisy,or sin cannot correct sin,wow this is fantasticaly amazing,skerrit it seem you guys altogether have become abominable,remember skerrit this is on your watch,i wonder if james and the UWP would have supported a gay show on their watch,some say it will help the young men from getting involve in crimes,well i am waiting to see how sin can make sin right,what a joke.

February 11, 2012
@ Bambi – In regards to your last sentence, supposing that person who goes into their private dwelling and lays with a child or animal claims(as do the partakers in the nastiness of homosexuality) that he/she was born that way and hence they have a right to practice their act free of discrimination from society how would you respond? Would you say well bestiality and sexual involvement with children is against the law of society? Isn’t the perversion of homosexuality also against the law in Dominica?
z.......
February 11, 2012
Too bad the perversion of being an idiot isn’t against the law! You’re a complete idiot and you’ve left no space for smarts. I don’t claim to be an expert on homosexuality but I know straight men and women rape, abuse, molest animals and children. Its a fact and it has nothing to do with homosexuality.
You need to educate yourself on subjects before you decided to contribute to a blog which goes viral all over the world, and in the event you end up making a “FOOL” of yourself.
For your information paedophilia and homosexuality are too totally different issues and are in no means linked to the other, contrary to what misguided views like yours echo.
Absolute rubbish in your assertion and cease from spreading un-truths
Channel 1
February 12, 2012
@Empowered1 – Paedophilia, incest and homosexuality all form under the heading of downright nasty, diabolically driven acts!!
Based on the reasons the partakers and supporters of the filth of homosexuality give to justify it, what hinders someone else involved in some other sordid act from using those same mind-warped reasons to justify and call for their rights to practice their acts?

Congratulations to all those who took part! You stood up against the hypocrites and haters and gave us all a great show.I suppose it would be OK with those haters and narrow minded idiots if you all were drug dealers.
The fact is that you will encourage others to display their talents and creativity which will make young men bold enough to achieve their full potential. Thanks again.
CONGRATULATIONS
February 11, 2012
The organizers of the first Mr. Dominica Pageant must be congratulated for a job well done. You will go down in history as the first to organize such a show in Dominica and I am sure this will be an annual event to look forward to at Carnival time.
I believe it is not to early to already begin to consider a regional event that could be staged in Dominica. THE MISTER CARIBBEAN PAGEANT.
To all the haters who hate people because of their sexual preference, my question is WHY? and a possible answer… inferior complex, insecurity, jealousy… a lot of these haters are jealous of these guys and wish they could openly express themselves. and yes they get involved in the closet but while play heterosexual in the public. STOP BEING HYPOCRETE… and MYOB because many of you out there know it’s only time before you are found out.
Some of you use the bible to preach damnation and you damn yourselves first.
So Mora and company keep up the good work started… if these guys were involved in drugs that what some people would have liked… to see them in the gutter. CONGRATULATIONS every one , you were all WINNERS…

February 11, 2012
there was a mr montserrat show for montserrat festival last year and there was nothing gay about it one does not have to be gay to take part in a pagent
I believe that idea is a great one for having the “Mr Caribbean” or even “Mr West Indies” pageant in DA right around the carnival festivities in DA, but someone pointed out on here that another island has already began to host it but that shouldn’t stop the organisers from researching this to see whether that is true.
In the event that it is true another island already host such a pageant annually, then my suggestion would be to host the “Mr O.E.C.S” in Dominica annually. That’d be nice for DA.
While on the subject I remember those fun old days when Dominica hosted the “Miss O.E.C.S” pageant which became among the top regional pageants in the Caribbean and was held in high esteem, and the COC/Festivals Committee should look at reviving this, and perhaps do a collaboration with Da Young Rising Starts to host all of the above pageants mentioned.
I never understood why both the “Miss O.E.C.S” and “Mr Teen Dominica” pageants were ever discontinued in the first place, as those shows were of such good standard.
Look into into it COC/Festivals Committees as you can do it!

This was a fantastic show! But what was up with the host Kamala and Franklin? This went a little bit beyond cordial and Alex bruno song was very tacky and uncalled for. What a shame the men both were. But other that I hope we’re able to see a queen show of this caliber .

TO ALL YOU HOMOPHOBICS OUT THERE….. There are many, many, whose perception of you is that your FEAR comes from WHAT YOU KNOW rather than WHAT YOU DON’T KNOW.

Dominicans need to be a more positive! This was a show of high calibre with Superb performance by every one of these men. These men are talented and brilliant. Definitely a show of high standard and one which should be done annually. there was never a dull moment at this show, not in the men being feminine, but rather the amazement of their energy,talent and brilliance. Their ability to answer questions in a comfortable fluent manner leaves one to question the ability of many queen contestants to measure up. I applaud Ms Mora and her team, the sponsors, the audience who encouraged the young men and most importantly the young men.
Let us look at these men for the great individuals they are. Let us not continue to bring them down but see them as a person. Dominicans are best at bringing down their own…and by this we can never move forward. Judge not lest ye be judged!
Nigel Shanna Kester Ghandi Bram Augustus Lennard, take a bow and congratulations!

Anyway i am sure that for the most part, the show must have been very entertaining.

Pappy show! Who is organizing the science fair or small business idea competition?
Instead of you doing the typical Dominican action, sitting on the sidelines running your mouth and then asking, “who organising the science fair and small business idea” competition, why don’t you propose these ideas to the communities on the island, and collectively do the ground work research before trying to acquire sponsorship for this?
If you have an idea which you believe will be beneficial to the island’s development in whatever way, just as the pageant’s organisers came together with their hearts and minds, then run with it and go for it, instead of sitting asking ridiculous questions.
After all, it is your island as well, and you should be a proactive member and “put your money where your mouth is”, instead of spectacularly adhering to the stereo-typical “crab-in-the-barrel” behaviour/mentality, that sadly so many Dominicans subscribe to so well!
I didn’t get to listen to the show as it wasn’t carried on any of the radio stations as I’d hoped, but by all accounts from people who attended in DA, the pageant was of a very high standard, lots of fun and laughter , fused with high intellect and ability to converse on topical issues, resulted in patrons leaving inspired and encouraged that their ticket money was well spent, witnessing Dominican men being portrayed in a very positive light as opposed to the norm we often see or hear about.
Wish I was there to attend but hopefully it is made into an annual segment on the carnival festivities calendar in Dominica.
FAB JOB DOMINICAN MEN!

I was just saying the same thing. Why she/he don’t step up and organize the Science Fair
Many congratulations young man and may you continue to grow and evolve for the better during and beyond your reign.
Enjoy your (13 months) as “Mr Dominica”, seek to broaden your horizons and at all times keep your eyes and ears open to capitalise on any opportunity that may rise to showcase and highlight your island to the world.
Get involved in ventures taking place both in your community and the rest of the island, and give back whatever you can to help enrich Dominica.
Always remember to stay grounded as with “humility, respect for your fellow human beings, fused with confidence,(Remember not conceitedness)”, the skies the limit and you’ll continue soar to new heights.
Unfortunately, I didn’t get to listen the show as DBS or any of the other stations as they didn’t broadcast it, and I am all the way in Manchester, England, but hopefully the organisers will have the sense to produce and sell a quality DVD which I’ll purchase.
Should you get the opportunity to participate in any similar regional and international pageants, always remember you are carrying Dominica on your head and must always put a positive effort forward. Good luck!
Well, best wishes and may the good lord continue to bless and keep you safe.

From the beginning i said this was so GAY show, ..seems like the acceptance of homosexuality is slowly being introduced into our Dominican society, A GOD FEARING NATION.
We as Dominican need to let them know that we will not stand for this!!!!

Are you serious? Stop being such a hypocrite. In Leviticus it is stated that you will die if you wear clothing of a combination of polyester and cotton. Do any of you idiots even OBEY that? No. If you’re going to obey the god damn Bible, then obey ALL OF IT.
Whose business is it if they sleep with a man or a woman? Certainly not ours. If you want to be a homophobic, slander-spewing idiot, then fine by me – but DO NOT think that the entire country is going to agree with your unbelievably hypocritic ways.

No, I am not gay; a supporter of the LBGT community, yes, but I am heterosexual, thank you.
It IS okay to be gay, and I don’t believe that it is your business what the men and women of Dominica do in their beds on Friday nights. What’s so wrong about being gay? A gay person can do manual labour, a gay person can go into politics – a gay person can be a responsible parent. Sexuality has nothing to do with personality and capability. A homosexual person is just as human as you and I both are.
Hear, hear and you tell enlighten this fool Silence.
Too many Dominicans want to choose which sin is by which sin is good. It doesn’t work that way and as you rightly stated if one is going to be draconian about the specifics of the bible then it needs to be done to a ‘T’ and not leave any sin out.
Which would mean that we are all sinners and should leave any judging to the lord above and know our damn places and our cat’s position. Stop trying to be GOD as you will never, ever be him and only he can judge us as and how he see fit.
BLOODY HYPOCRITES IN THE NAME OF RELIGION & GOD FEARING EXCUSES IN ORDER TO DISCRIMINATE AGAINST OTHERS!!!!!

Progress I am not gay and a God fearing person. This is not promoting gayism in any way. If it was does it say that the princess show is promoting child porn? And are the teen and queen shows promoting gayism as well. Stop being bias, what is good for the goose is good for the gander. All of those so called religious fanatics, think before you speak.

‘We will not stand for this’ you wrote, but we will stand for incest, adultery, fornication, theft, lies and any other sin.
I didnot go to the show, but wished I had. If the pictures and most of the comments are anything to go by, then I surely missed a good night out.
These young men have nothing to be ashamed of (gay or not). They all appear to be comfortable in themselves, and they all looked good.
I always wonder what would homophobics do if one of their sons turned out to be gay (especially the so called God fearing ones).
Hope there is a show next year, and if I’m around, I’ll have a front row seat.

anyway anyway shanna is my Mr.Dominica fine young black man.makes u see there is still fine ass men in dominica
I really don’t understand Dominican lol they are so funny……….If a young man go to a queen show he is gay….now if a young man go to Mr Dominican show is gay…..on drugs you want them to go? It have so much abuse going on………….father abusing their daughters and mother cannot say anything, who spoiling people children because they work hard in school etc tooo muchhhhhhh to talk about.
I want to say congratulations to the young men who took part in the show. We always say that the place has no entertainment, and when we get entertained, some of us are not satisfied.
The show was not a gay show, regardless to who was or was not gay….. Just remember it is our straight husbands, sons and brothers etc that hooks up with gays. So when we say gay, are we sure which of our men sleep with them…. please d your homework and investigate to see which straight man is their partner…. alot of us would be suprised. I do not support homosexual lifestyle, but I am God to judge them either…. There are many sins we commit everyday under the pretense of holy life and we are so spiritually dead. God bless us and our country Dominica, may we clean up our own mistakes before condemning others.
AMEN!!!!
the person who is accepting these comments for the article could you please make sure you read everything even though these are the views of ppl there shouldnt be comments calling ppl gay and who looking gayer thats wrong!! how dare you accept such edit it dont leave it so i’m so ashamed of dno and what it is turning out to be anywy congrats to these men the show was great
Pple I understand all those who dont believe or is agaisnt gay but at the same time are you going to judge others which is also a sin and which is one of the biggest thing stressed by god dont judge and he shall not be judged,leave all judgement for the father. i dont expect for pple to like the show but all those who do thats their opinion and you need to learn to respect that. homosexuality as we all know it is an abormination and we all know it but compearing it to other sins to make it look good its not right its wrong its wrong but we cannot hate or make war with pple that is GAY cuz they havent done anything to you. you may nevver know who you meet down in life and may have to help you and what is the person is gay? would you put up a front for all you care they’re not sexually active with you that is just not your business. What if your son turned out to be gay and you tried and make him do all manly things just so he wont turn out gay and still ends up. Are you going to kill, distroy or neglect your child due to that. LOVE makes a different help the child with love at the same time you can let know the GAY pple you dont agree to their sexuality and it not right to god but you cant hate and point fingures at no one its there life not your god gave all of us choices and so just respect and help pple but bashing at pple like this will just make them retaliate more and provock you cuz they kno it upset you. AND PPLE BE REAL THE SHOW WASNT GAY AND BEHAVE YOU GUYS SELF IT WAS A GOOD SHOW. It have queen show giving the winners at queen show scholarships and to become and ambassador for D/A at least it can help the men of D/A to get the same. Who cares if some of the participants were gay but the show wasnt gay. AT the same time pple we should not promote gay but we must accept them for who they are and even if a gay signs up doesnt make the nature and the goal of the show to be gay. Be real christains and not stressing on only one text phrase in the bible to comfort us and our opinions but watch the bible from all angles, so we wont us key text to make war with others and thats the last thing GOD wants us to do.
Watch out for the guys who are getting all uncomfortable about this show, pointing out which one is the most gay etc, etc. They are the ones who are uncomfortable with their sexuality and are simpley projecting. Hats off to the young men who could brave the close-mindedness of our people and produce a show which I heard was excellent. Why so much interest in the men’s sexual preference? We are a bit more enlightened now. Those bashing the guys are usually the ones with skeletonssss in their closet.
Aye no lie some of them really do look amazing in their costumes, especially ..hmmm lemme hush, but anyways the black short one, could he be ANY GAYER omgosh, i don’t mean it to discriminate, i just find it amazing and brave that he ain’t hiding it.
dont cast the first stone. you sit here and say that this is an abomination but u committing adultry, fornication, lying, stealing, selling drugs that kill other humans, ripping off people, raping, incest. shut ur damn mouths people and accept the talents of our fellow dominicans and be proud of them. congratulations to the winner.dont let them keep u down, and always remember to put god first
but its still wrong other sins dont make it right. So just admit its wrong too
Mora, Syl you take entertainment in DA to D next (higher) level. Keep it up.
I’m look at the men in their tux and thinking these men are very handsome then I look at them in the swim wear and I was like “My goodness, who told those men they look good in that”…SMH. All in all I can’t judge so congratulations to all the men for having the courage to do this Dominica people can be cruel!!!!
what did they win?
repent repent stop bringing more curse on our land.
what about this represents abomination? Please explain what the bible says if you know so much about abomination. Does this also mean that the queen show/calypso are an abomination too? I suppose u have no sins yourself.
hope your life right when you quick to shout ‘repent’ …hypocrite
Usually not!!! When they fast to make them comments, they are the ones that have skeleton in their closets. Not sure where that comment was coming from.
YOU REPENT AND STOP BRINGING MORE CURSE ON OUR LAND WITH YOUR DUMB, FOOLISH, PREJUDICE ATTITUDE AND HATRED OF OTHER MEMBERS OF THE HUMAN RACE FOR NO REASON WHATSOEVER, OTHER THAN YOUR PRECONCEIVED DISCRIMINATORY VIEWS.
AS A PROGRESSIVE DOMINICAN, I HAVE NEWS FOR YOU THAT WE IN DOMINICA HAVE NO TIME OR PLACE FOR A MENTALITY LIKE YOURS AND YOU’RE CERTAINLY NOT SPEAKING FOR ME AS A DOMINICAN.
A HARMLESS TALENT SHOW WHERE MEN ARE NOT HURTING, RAPING, TAKING DRUGS OR SELLING IT TO OTHERS, NOT STEALING PEOPLE’S STUFF, NOT ABUSING OTHERS AND YET DOMINICANS ARE BEING SO UNJUSTLY MALICIOUS AND CRUEL. THAT IS NOT THE DOMINICA THAT I WANT ANY PART OF!!!!!
SHAME ON YOU AND THE LIKES OF YOU!!!!!
some dumbinicans are too bias ,what does mr Dominica have to do with repenting are you too stupid and backward why ayo doh say that about the ladies competing for qu een
Congratulations guys! Some of us complain that there is no social life and entertainment and yet we criticize creativity and courage among our youth who find an outlet to express their talent and inner qualities. Why are we so negative and primitive? We have no respect for humanity……….Grow up my people, the world is moving on while we rot in our ignorance, naivety and stupidity!!!!!!!!!!
HUH? Repent? Repent about what?
I expect that you to be the first to begin to repent…
Sometimes i wish DNO could only be read in Dominica. cant believe one country have so much small minded people. i could imagine people out there reading those comments. I mean if it was only one person being small minded i would understand. but almost half of the comments is rather alarming. domininicans really need exposure. and really need to travel and broaden their horizons.OMG i am so embarassed.
Good show. Looking forward to next year’s!
YOU PEOPLE ARE DISTROYING OUR COUNTRY WITH YOUR IMMORALITY
Why is that we accept unfaithfulness and homosexuality we scorn are they not both just has bad…
a a…I should have well go show instead of queen show next week…. congrats guys! great job!
Its funny how some people reffer to to Bible,yet know nothing about it.
Marco polo. whoy yo yoih
What an illiterate, stone age, primitive comment! Is that the best your 2pint size2 intellect can muster? What a crying shame if that’s all the school system thought you.
I was lead to believe that Dominicans were meant to be educated and civilised individuals, but I am beginning to think again, after reading some of your utter hateful gabbage.
POOR THINGS!!!!!
true say
Child….LOL! Whew, Jesus take the wheel cause baby. This website is killing me. I really don’t get it. I mean, it is a small island, so, its hard to “think outside the box” Get it! LOL!. No for real, I agree with you Observant. This is obviously a small island and people don’t get out much. Its only a pageant and them dudes was fine!
Someone help me and say fruit cake, some of you Dominicans acting like you all aint know that.
abomination
Uuuuh, at what point did this become a religious topic?
The Bible says judge not that he may be judged……So who are we to judge others…..You people seriously need to stop discriminating
OMG!!! I enjoyed that show to the max, I lol from the introduction until the end, the production was of first class…en bien look it!!!I cah wait for next year, we should have a show like that in Lucia man..
As a christian nation we should protest against this. We even promoting being fat/ plus size. Its all down hill from here. The ones who are not gay should be ashamed of themselves. Most people came to laugh at you all!!!!
So because we are a christian nation we cannot encourage plus sized women in the same way that we encourage the slim chicks? Is being plus-sized un-Godly? Some people don’t think before they type.
WELL SAID
WE IN DOMINICA PAY LIP SERVICE TO OUR CHRISTIAN IDENTITY…WHAT IS LEFT OF IT
But you can’t push Christianity OFF on other people. More over you cant FORCE YOUR BELIEFS on other people. Now, its cool to have your own opinion, but its it one thing to down someone because they don’t think they way that you do. Traveling is FUNDAMENTAL Baby. Please explore other parts of the world, there are many religious, beliefs, cultures, etc out there. I respect ya gangsta and being down for your island, but uuuuh, like yall acting like this is some primitive lil island in the caribbean. Then again, Ive never been here….I don’t know.
Ok something wrong now being fat? Or plus sized? What idiocy? By that comment I sincerely hope you are not calling yourself a Christian?
As a Christian, you should know that we are made in God’s image and likeness. Who are you to judge fool.
well if u went to laugh…as u said..the world just went a lil more downhill no thanks to you. im a plus sized individual, and im still healthy and sexy, does that mean that im not loved by God? you need to check urself and ur surroundings, i suggest u lock urself in hybernation untill ur mind grows up to match ur body and its surroundings…….nonsence.!
I can now conclude how small minded Domincans are…. And most of you commenting that this show is is gay blah blah blah… hmmmm I see, we have more gay pll acting straight. while you are talking about someone else, ur father, brother, cousin well getting their groove on… think beyond that, the show was great and I would Like to say hearts of to all the guys Especially Lennard, I know you got some good goals ahead, maybe in the next few years you might be a millionaire who knows, you are so bright. Hearts of to your girlfriend as well I knw she gave you alot of support. Guys coming out to the show alone proved that you are guys. Also to Bram Sanderson, great job as well reping Wesley 100%..
Great Job! But I hope that happy meal is part of the prize giving, the guys are really skinny.
you expect them to be fat, slim and trim, that’s model material the guys are perfect in size. We need to stop discriminating who ever is gay that’s their problem God will judge, but looking i the photos the show must have been great, congratulations to all the young men.
Dominicans are just small minded no wonder no one knows who we are. I do not support gayism coz as the bible say it is an abomination. But it also indicates fairness and honesty. Give jack his jacket. This was never meant to be a gay show but to include the male population in the development of our beloved island. We are already ignoring the natural beauty of things and soon will no longer be called the nature island, so at least give people something to come to Dominica for.
We are the one who speculates and have our children goring up with this stupid mentality from birth of what society expects to be a man thing and a woman thing. I suppose our mind is just as small as our island, and underdeveloped as well. And we will keep in hearing “Dominica? Where is that? Haven’t heard of it”
tipcaly dummies wud say it wz a gay show……IF U WERE HERE TO WITNESSED U WUD HV KNOW BETTER… actually it takes one to know one….foolishe people. THIS SHOW WZ THE BEST EVER CREATED…..NEXT YR COME SEE 4 URSELF
I support the idea for a MR Caribbean Pagaent to be hosted here! Antoinette Mora and whoever else is interested–Please consider this!
Would like to hear of a second annual Mr Dominica. Wishing the best to those who took part this time around!
congrats to the boys well done
CONGRATULATIONS TO ALL THE GUYS. HAPPY TO HEAR THE SHOW WENT WELL AND WAS
GREAT. GOOD LUCK MR. DOMINICA.
I am appalled at some of the comments that I have read. I will not dignify them with a response. However I would like to a draw attention to my observations of the pictorial data provided on the show. Please look closely at the appearance of these gentlemen who I think take pride in their appearance…
There are no crusty knees, no hairy armpits, no crusty elbows, no untidy hair and there is not a grain of body hair to be found in the groin, legs or anywhere else that mars their appearance in any way. Their clothing falls perfectly and their bodies are taunt and appealing, a fantasy for the onlooker…..I think that the persons responsible for the presentation of the carnival queen contestants could sure use some pointers….. folks the guys have raised the bar! A tough act to follow given what the presenters of the women have put forward so far……if one is not careful onlookers will be tempted to become tourists to see these tasty morsels as opposed to those put on display as carnival queens……. where has all the feminism gone?
this is the reason why dominica’s development always gets stone walled,even when it’s a good thing for dominica,the people critisize the government, however my observation is,the church seem to have gone dumb all of a sudden,is it really hypocrisy,or sin cannot correct sin,wow this is fantasticaly amazing,skerrit it seem you guys altogether have become abominable,remember skerrit this is on your watch,i wonder if james and the UWP would have supported a gay show on their watch,some say it will help the young men from getting involve in crimes,well i am waiting to see how sin can make sin right,what a joke.
you so so stupid…smh..
It was not a gay show!!!! u Idiot!!!
OK and if the PM had put a stop to the show, get you’d be
the first to shout.
You would have the cheek to ask what happened to freedom of expression, and claim that this proves that we now have a dictator as our leader.
Idiot what makes them gay? Are u gay?
TOTAL IDIOT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
lennard would’ve won the queen show for sure. lol
excuse me…. AT least u clarified that he is a winner… I am sure that his goal and ambitions surpassed yours so stay on DNO and Comment like an ass as usual… One day he will be the psychiatrist that heals your mental sickness 5 yrs down the line..
DUDE LEAVE THE YOUNG MAN ALONE… IS LIKE YOU WANT HIM. JUST SAYING IS A REAL JACASS…THE SHOW WAS GREAT AND THERE WILL CERTAINLY BE MORE LIKE IT. ALTHOUGH THERE WAS CALYPSO AND THE COMMENTATORS CRITICIZED THE MR. DOMINICA COMPETITION…FOR A MAGIC STAKE OSSIE MOUZI LOOK LIKE A
CUNOUMOUNOU
Ossie’s comments at the Calypso show last week were so unfortunate. Well, a decade ago or so, the Mr Dominica show was a body-building contest. But that seems to be a thing of the past, if you ask me. The commentator certainly sounded a bit homophobic!!!
and you will remain where you are in your small minded world
Ghandi Robin you look outstanding in your swim wear…………..you must go into the model world
If we all swept infront of our doors, we would all get along.
GAY OR NO GAY THIS WAS A DAM GOOD SHOW BETTER THAN ANY OF THE CARINVAL SHOW I HAVE EVER BEEN TO WELL DONE GUYS HOPE TO SEE MORE OF IT IN THE FURTURE
Congrats Nigel. U deserved that crown.
boy,that was a hell of a shown,nigel really,really impressed me,congrats,u deserve that crown.
People it was a FANTASTIC Show! Roseau must have trembled with all the laughter. Forget who’s gay or straight – People enjoyed themselves, each contestant had a talent unique and expressive of themselves, they did there best and it showed. So to all those people hating on anyone who are different – Sa ki pa bon pou zwa pa bon pou kan na – doe do to others what you doe want done to you. Those men showed courage –
I bet more men going to sign up for next yr Mr Dominica. all who that was calling them gay going to sign up…… this show is a great opportunity for Dominican young men to show case their talent. the same way it can have a miss Dominica is the same way it can have a Mr. Dominica….
urging young men to take part in these activities it will help you in the long run…………..you never know where you might fall in life…………..maybe Mr universe etc
Dominicans are just small minded no wonder no one knows who we are.
Stupppppesssssssssssssss only in dominica
I want this one on tape hope they sell it like the queen show
Why are dcans against homosexuality when dcans are the same ines who stsy with there husbands when he have a yung woman on the side,, so many married men in dca make children outside theur marriagr. We tolerate and accept infidelity, it has become part of the trend….i could not care less who a grown man or woman choose yo sleep with, as long its not a child or an animal
@ Bambi – In regards to your last sentence, supposing that person who goes into their private dwelling and lays with a child or animal claims(as do the partakers in the nastiness of homosexuality) that he/she was born that way and hence they have a right to practice their act free of discrimination from society how would you respond? Would you say well bestiality and sexual involvement with children is against the law of society? Isn’t the perversion of homosexuality also against the law in Dominica?
Too bad the perversion of being an idiot isn’t against the law! You’re a complete idiot and you’ve left no space for smarts. I don’t claim to be an expert on homosexuality but I know straight men and women rape, abuse, molest animals and children. Its a fact and it has nothing to do with homosexuality.
You need to educate yourself on subjects before you decided to contribute to a blog which goes viral all over the world, and in the event you end up making a “FOOL” of yourself.
For your information paedophilia and homosexuality are too totally different issues and are in no means linked to the other, contrary to what misguided views like yours echo.
Absolute rubbish in your assertion and cease from spreading un-truths
@Empowered1 – Paedophilia, incest and homosexuality all form under the heading of downright nasty, diabolically driven acts!!
Based on the reasons the partakers and supporters of the filth of homosexuality give to justify it, what hinders someone else involved in some other sordid act from using those same mind-warped reasons to justify and call for their rights to practice their acts?
WISH THEY WERE CARRYING THE SHOW LIVE! FOR THOSE OF US WHO DON’T LIVE IN DA WE WOULD REALLY APPRECIATE A LIVE BROADCAST..
AND FOR ALL THE CRITICISM, LOOKING AT THE PICS I DONT SEE ANYTHING GAY ABOUT THE SHOW..
They were carrying it live but u had to pay 26 EC to watch it ……………i was very disappointed that DBS did not carry it live isn’t it part of the carnival programs? they need to stop that cause there are other caribbean countries that have a mr.what ever the country is show ……………..Antigua have a mr.&miss teen show we to some mindede in D/A
Congratulations to all those who took part! You stood up against the hypocrites and haters and gave us all a great show.I suppose it would be OK with those haters and narrow minded idiots if you all were drug dealers.
The fact is that you will encourage others to display their talents and creativity which will make young men bold enough to achieve their full potential. Thanks again.
The organizers of the first Mr. Dominica Pageant must be congratulated for a job well done. You will go down in history as the first to organize such a show in Dominica and I am sure this will be an annual event to look forward to at Carnival time.
I believe it is not to early to already begin to consider a regional event that could be staged in Dominica. THE MISTER CARIBBEAN PAGEANT.
To all the haters who hate people because of their sexual preference, my question is WHY? and a possible answer… inferior complex, insecurity, jealousy… a lot of these haters are jealous of these guys and wish they could openly express themselves. and yes they get involved in the closet but while play heterosexual in the public. STOP BEING HYPOCRETE… and MYOB because many of you out there know it’s only time before you are found out.
Some of you use the bible to preach damnation and you damn yourselves first.
So Mora and company keep up the good work started… if these guys were involved in drugs that what some people would have liked… to see them in the gutter. CONGRATULATIONS every one , you were all WINNERS…
there was a mr montserrat show for montserrat festival last year and there was nothing gay about it one does not have to be gay to take part in a pagent
I believe that idea is a great one for having the “Mr Caribbean” or even “Mr West Indies” pageant in DA right around the carnival festivities in DA, but someone pointed out on here that another island has already began to host it but that shouldn’t stop the organisers from researching this to see whether that is true.
In the event that it is true another island already host such a pageant annually, then my suggestion would be to host the “Mr O.E.C.S” in Dominica annually. That’d be nice for DA.
While on the subject I remember those fun old days when Dominica hosted the “Miss O.E.C.S” pageant which became among the top regional pageants in the Caribbean and was held in high esteem, and the COC/Festivals Committee should look at reviving this, and perhaps do a collaboration with Da Young Rising Starts to host all of the above pageants mentioned.
I never understood why both the “Miss O.E.C.S” and “Mr Teen Dominica” pageants were ever discontinued in the first place, as those shows were of such good standard.
Look into into it COC/Festivals Committees as you can do it!
This was a fantastic show! But what was up with the host Kamala and Franklin? This went a little bit beyond cordial and Alex bruno song was very tacky and uncalled for. What a shame the men both were. But other that I hope we’re able to see a queen show of this caliber .
TO ALL YOU HOMOPHOBICS OUT THERE….. There are many, many, whose perception of you is that your FEAR comes from WHAT YOU KNOW rather than WHAT YOU DON’T KNOW. The show was great; the contestants went all out to put on a wonderful show which was very well received by those who attended. Please do not try to save the soul of others when yours is in jeopardy.
Most homophobes are closet homosexuals. They are just trying to distract attention from thier own personal conflict with this “afliction”.
I must take time off to complement all the brave young men who stepped up to the plate and gave tyhe patrons top class entertainment. The cowards remained in a corner just hailing cheap insults and idiocy.
Dno slideshow view please……
but this was the show of the year
Dominicans need to be a more positive! This was a show of high calibre with Superb performance by every one of these men. These men are talented and brilliant. Definitely a show of high standard and one which should be done annually. there was never a dull moment at this show, not in the men being feminine, but rather the amazement of their energy,talent and brilliance. Their ability to answer questions in a comfortable fluent manner leaves one to question the ability of many queen contestants to measure up. I applaud Ms Mora and her team, the sponsors, the audience who encouraged the young men and most importantly the young men.
Let us look at these men for the great individuals they are. Let us not continue to bring them down but see them as a person. Dominicans are best at bringing down their own…and by this we can never move forward. Judge not lest ye be judged!
Nigel Shanna Kester Ghandi Bram Augustus Lennard, take a bow and congratulations!
i agree.well said.
Very well said! We’ve had far too much negativity in this country nowadays.
congrats!! all the best Mr. Dominica!! some people are too negative, i don’t find anything gay about that show!! some people need 2 stop trying to bring down people!! everything they have to complain! aa
then you definitely wasnt at the awarak lastnight
dont BUG HER
I am very sure that you in the closet too.. and not only that you are maybe jobless and have no goals in life.
Well done guys. some Dominicans seem to be to homophobic, they are so unsure of their own sexuality they passing it out on young men wanting to share their talents.
Congrats Nigel and great job Lennard!
where are the haters? guess you are on silencer.good job guys,and nothing there seems to be feminin,and even there were,you showed strength,and determination inspite of what critics said.good job to the organizers,and am glag you did not giv in in those negative minded people in dominica,who are the minority with lots of issues hidden in their closets.keep up the good works,and lets have it greater in 2013.
WELL DONE SORRY I WASNT IN DOMINICA I WOULD ATTEND THAT SHOW. YOU ALL DID A GREAT JOB AND I HOPE IT CONTINUES. CONGRATS ALL COMING FROM SXM FRENCHISDE
Did they really have to include a swim wear segment? Look at the flamboyance portrayed by some of the fellaz nah.
Anyway i am sure that for the most part, the show must have been very entertaining.
Trust me…it was better than any QUEEN show lololol!!!
hahahahahahahahahahhahahahahahahaha
Pappy show! Who is organizing the science fair or small business idea competition?
Instead of you doing the typical Dominican action, sitting on the sidelines running your mouth and then asking, “who organising the science fair and small business idea” competition, why don’t you propose these ideas to the communities on the island, and collectively do the ground work research before trying to acquire sponsorship for this?
If you have an idea which you believe will be beneficial to the island’s development in whatever way, just as the pageant’s organisers came together with their hearts and minds, then run with it and go for it, instead of sitting asking ridiculous questions.
After all, it is your island as well, and you should be a proactive member and “put your money where your mouth is”, instead of spectacularly adhering to the stereo-typical “crab-in-the-barrel” behaviour/mentality, that sadly so many Dominicans subscribe to so well!
I didn’t get to listen to the show as it wasn’t carried on any of the radio stations as I’d hoped, but by all accounts from people who attended in DA, the pageant was of a very high standard, lots of fun and laughter , fused with high intellect and ability to converse on topical issues, resulted in patrons leaving inspired and encouraged that their ticket money was well spent, witnessing Dominican men being portrayed in a very positive light as opposed to the norm we often see or hear about.
Wish I was there to attend but hopefully it is made into an annual segment on the carnival festivities calendar in Dominica.
FAB JOB DOMINICAN MEN!
I was just saying the same thing. Why she/he don’t step up and organize the Science Fair
Many congratulations young man and may you continue to grow and evolve for the better during and beyond your reign.
Enjoy your (13 months) as “Mr Dominica”, seek to broaden your horizons and at all times keep your eyes and ears open to capitalise on any opportunity that may rise to showcase and highlight your island to the world.
Get involved in ventures taking place both in your community and the rest of the island, and give back whatever you can to help enrich Dominica.
Always remember to stay grounded as with “humility, respect for your fellow human beings, fused with confidence,(Remember not conceitedness)”, the skies the limit and you’ll continue soar to new heights.
Unfortunately, I didn’t get to listen the show as DBS or any of the other stations as they didn’t broadcast it, and I am all the way in Manchester, England, but hopefully the organisers will have the sense to produce and sell a quality DVD which I’ll purchase.
Should you get the opportunity to participate in any similar regional and international pageants, always remember you are carrying Dominica on your head and must always put a positive effort forward. Good luck!
Well, best wishes and may the good lord continue to bless and keep you safe.
congrat nigel. I love Nigel formal wear
From the beginning i said this was so GAY show, ..seems like the acceptance of homosexuality is slowly being introduced into our Dominican society, A GOD FEARING NATION.
We as Dominican need to let them know that we will not stand for this!!!!
Are you serious? Stop being such a hypocrite. In Leviticus it is stated that you will die if you wear clothing of a combination of polyester and cotton. Do any of you idiots even OBEY that? No. If you’re going to obey the god damn Bible, then obey ALL OF IT.
Whose business is it if they sleep with a man or a woman? Certainly not ours. If you want to be a homophobic, slander-spewing idiot, then fine by me – but DO NOT think that the entire country is going to agree with your unbelievably hypocritic ways.
its my business…wen the making others think that its ok to be gay!!!! i think u are speaking like that cause u are gay!!!!
No, I am not gay; a supporter of the LBGT community, yes, but I am heterosexual, thank you.
It IS okay to be gay, and I don’t believe that it is your business what the men and women of Dominica do in their beds on Friday nights. What’s so wrong about being gay? A gay person can do manual labour, a gay person can go into politics – a gay person can be a responsible parent. Sexuality has nothing to do with personality and capability. A homosexual person is just as human as you and I both are.
LOL.
Hear, hear and you tell enlighten this fool Silence.
Too many Dominicans want to choose which sin is by which sin is good. It doesn’t work that way and as you rightly stated if one is going to be draconian about the specifics of the bible then it needs to be done to a ‘T’ and not leave any sin out.
Which would mean that we are all sinners and should leave any judging to the lord above and know our damn places and our cat’s position. Stop trying to be GOD as you will never, ever be him and only he can judge us as and how he see fit.
BLOODY HYPOCRITES IN THE NAME OF RELIGION & GOD FEARING EXCUSES IN ORDER TO DISCRIMINATE AGAINST OTHERS!!!!!
Progress I am not gay and a God fearing person. This is not promoting gayism in any way. If it was does it say that the princess show is promoting child porn? And are the teen and queen shows promoting gayism as well. Stop being bias, what is good for the goose is good for the gander. All of those so called religious fanatics, think before you speak.
As a god fear person why you think you’re bigger than him to judge people? It don’t seem you fear god at all infact you seem to think you on his level.
oh shut up u probably gay too
maybe he wanted one of those guys and they did not take him on ,,stupid
‘We will not stand for this’ you wrote, but we will stand for incest, adultery, fornication, theft, lies and any other sin.
I didnot go to the show, but wished I had. If the pictures and most of the
comments are anything to go by, then I surely missed a good night out.
These young men have nothing to be ashamed of (gay or not). They all appear to be comfortable in themselves, and they all looked good.
I always wonder what would homophobics do if one of their sons turned out to be gay (especially the so called God fearing ones).
Hope there is a show next year, and if I’m around, I’ll have a front row seat.
some of them that are having all this gay talk and bashing,they are the closeted queens and need to come out and be comfortable in their skin.for all have sinned and come short of the glory of god.he who has no sins cast the first stones.i just cannot understand these idiots and macho men with that gay bashing.
God has given us the free will to choose … and it is up to us to choose right in His (God’s) eyes. Notice that gay people are talented and intelligent etc just as everyone else….
….just saying ….
HOW IS DOMINICA A GOD FEARING NATION? WHAT DOES GOD FEARING MEAN? DOES IT MEAN, HYPOCRITE? OR MANY CHURCHES AND CHURCH GOERS? SO MANY ILLEGITIMATE CHILDREN IN DOMINICA, SO MANY CASES OF INCEST, CARNAL KNOWLEDGE, ADULTERY, RAPE,MURDER, THIEVERY WE HAVE HOW DOES THIS COME FROMM A GOD FEARING NATION? WHO ARE THE GOD FEARING ONES, 2%? GIMME A BREAK, STUPESSSSSSS
Tell dem!
EVERYTHING IS UPSIDE DOWN… EVERYTHING IS BACK TO FRONT!!!
Yeah like you…fou
And the best body goes toooooo Ghandi and Bram. Have a look at the six pack guys.
