“Miss Red” competition hits stage on Saturday

pageantFor the first time in the history of pageantry in Dominica, 21 beauties from every constituency in Dominica will vie for the title of Miss Red at the Krazy Kokonuts from 8:00 pm on Saturday.

The show is an initiative of the Labour Youth Organization and Chairperson of the Technical Committee Kamala Jno Baptiste-Aaron, said it intends to create an avenue for growth in the pageantry arena.

“The idea behind this show was basically to give young women, an opportunity to  get experience, get some expertise, get a platform to show in serious areas; and to understand what it feels like to be in that kind of environment,” she explained.

Jno Baptiste-Aaron pointed out that many of the participants are showing interest in taking part in other pageants and show will provide an avenue in understanding procedures in the pageant  industry.

“Several of them have really expressed an interest in participating in other shows like the Miss Dominica Competition, Miss Wob Dwyiet and we think that this is an excellent avenue to understand how this procedure, process, as this business of pageantry, fashion and beauty works,” she noted.

She said the idea of the show was presented to the Dominica Labour Party national executive by Labor Youth Organization, and it was agreed and decided that it was a good one.

To be in the show participants had to be between the ages of 16-30, be of sound character, be a high school graduate, and single.

There will be four appearances: an opening dance and introduction, artistic wear (representing the party color), high fashion red and evening wear.

All 21 will compete in the first two rounds. After the second round the top 11 will be selected to compete in the evening wear round.

From the evening wear round the top five will be selected from which the 2013 Miss Red will be crowned.

    the show is a beauty pageant ,while i may strongly agree but beauty goes with intelligence. the show should have a question and answer round. you cant be a queen with no intelligence if this is a foundation for national queen show. think and consider for the next time around. Mrs Aaron the main organizer you should know that

    I hope when they say “RED” they are not suggesting Red China you know Skerrit is selling the island to China soon they may make it mandatory that all school children learn to speak and write Chinese so they will be prepared when Dominica becomes a colony.

    This is completely off-topic but, could somebody clarify the correct pronunciation of “Waitukubuli” for me?
    I always heard it pronounced as “whitey”-kubuli but then I noticed the spelling is “why-too”-kubuli so I’m a bit confused. :-?
    Thanks in advance :-D

    I am feeling the hatred of those wearing blue.It is just not fair that there are soooo many negative comments.What money Labour wants from a show? I find that low.Maybe Blue can do a ting too and have a pageant.My blue people are letting me down slowly.I am straight forward and support any and every supportive move for and by young people.Let us bury colors.Constructive talk now.

    Boy, I really wonder sometimes if some Dominicans are sane. So the pagent is only open for labourites? What about if a young lady supports another party? Shame, Shame on the organizers. Kamala just looking for publicity. I hope she is not the one to give tips on dressing… Poor initiative. Miss Labour Party? I really would like to know the person who would be so proud of that title!!! Mercy Lord.

Are you telling us that a confirmed member of another political party has a chance of winning first prize or that it could possibly be held at a venue other than Krazy Kokonuts? Next thing you telling us that Labour party is sponsoring the event. Wel, well Labour party must be desperate.
