DDA to host Miss World Europe 2019 as a special guest for Miss Dominica 2020

The Discover Dominica Association (DDA) will host Miss World Europe 2019, Ophély Mézino as its special guest for the Miss Dominica 2020 Pageant.

Mezino has a number of titles to her name which includes Miss Guadeloupe 2018, Miss France 1st Runner-Up 2019, Miss World France 2019, 1st Runner-Up in the Miss World Competition 2019 and Miss World Europe.

During its weekly press conference, Marketing Executive of DDA, Samantha Letang, said Mezino was assisted by a Dominican national for the Miss World Pageant.

“I must say here that for her preparations for the Miss World Pageant, she was assisted by Dominican, Shannon Vigilante who was her English coach and a very good friend of hers, so we really have to say Dominica is all over and helping in pageantry,” she said.

At her stay in Dominica, Letang said Mezino will have the opportunity to spend quality time with the contestants of the Miss Dominica Pageant as well as visit various sites and attractions while on island.

Miss World Europe was born on Reunion Island but raised in Guadeloupe and is currently a chemistry and engineering student.

    Instead of women covering up their bodies, they reveal their private parts to the whole world. Men over up and women expose. Where is the example set for our young girls? I do not condone any exposure like that and I believe that there should be more respect of one’s self. I do not consider such exposure as beauty and I will never support that.

        Silver..I think you will find it id you, rather, that is stuck in the past. Pageantry is a dying phenomena worldwide as women wake up to the fact that they are more than pretty clothes horses for folks to gawp at and judge like slaves on an auction block. The waning popularity of the Miss World, Miss Universe and various country pageants is long been underway as people are no longer comfortable with its undeniable sexism and promotion of style over substance and body image pressures. Its time, high time we get rid of this nonsense.
