She walked like she owned the stage. She exhibited the natural grace and poise deserving of royalty and captured the hearts of both judges and audience.
And when the time came for the judges to make their decision, there was no doubt that 20-year-old Tasia Floissac from Atkinson deserved the title of 2013 Miss Wob Dwiyet.
Representing the east, Floissac captured the coveted title at the Old Mill cultural center on Thursday night from a field of seven young ladies from across the island.
Floissac won awards for Best Talent and Best in Wob.
She told reporters that her victory is a great achievement.
“I feel very rewarding, I mean I have been to so many pageants and just finally winning I think it’s a great achievement for me right now,” she said.
She mentioned that being Miss Wob is all about having “poise and elegance and I worked really hard …and I think that is all about consistency having the wob on and creative wear and the talent and everything, I think consistency just top it off for me”.
Floissac said she may try her hand at the national pageant and she will also be seeking to further her studies, and describe the achievement as ‘wonderful’ for her community.
She is also a member of the sisserou singers.
Second place went to Zethra Baron who represented the South, who also captured an award for Best in Spectacular Wear.
Marissa Thomas of the Northern district took third place while Germiamah Junkere of the South West placed fourth.
The show was judged in three areas: Talent, Creole Spectacular Wear and Wob dwiyet.
Each participant were given a participation trophy and a gift basket.
There were appearances from the Madam Wob Dwiyet 2013 Veronique Nicholas, as well as the Toronto and USA Madam Wob dwiyet.
The pageant was one of the highlights of Dominica’s Independence celebrations.
to all the haters that’s my cousin and i truly believe she deserves it especially since we have some rough corners in our live so congrats Tasia
Winner: Zethra Baron, First runner up: Marissa. Tasia Flosiac wasn’t even supposed to be placed. or at least third. They could have just given Tasia her crown for the three rounds since they came with a preset winner. But they know that giving Marissa best talent would have automatically put Zethra with the crown, so long live unfair judgement in all queen shows in Dominica.
lol lol lol llool this individual you should be so ashame to speak so tasia all the wayyy clearly you were not at the show none of the girls point could be close to level set my tasia
loooooool so now allu trying to do like queen show and say there was a preset winner….and i dont know since when just talkin is a talent… Tasia’s Talent was creative, made a statement and she sang well. and you’re right they should’ve given her her trophy for best costume too. but they wanted to give someone else alil sumfing…thats how i c it!
I was at the show,and it wasn’t. Judged fairly,the young lady that won knew she was going to win .because most of the judges in some groups with her which is unfair.the woman just come and sing a song and win talent awa,she was the only one with a fan,why was that ?I thought all was suppose to have the same ?if not correct me.the way I saw it baron. Deserved the crown. The young lady they gave it to suppose to get 2runner up.
were u judging? do you know what the judging criteria was??…the young ladyknew she was going to win because she was confident that she put her best foot fwd….i got an look at the score-sheet…her scores were wayyyyy above the others….it was TASIA….Then the others !!….the judges took a wile to decide who the runner ups were not the winner. Give the girl her credit. She had a fan because she wanted too. they didnt say the other girls could not have fans, cultural division did not provide fans. the other contestants could have had their fans. its so ridiculous how u Dominicans like to bash ppl…a make something out of nothing…A FAN !!!…and its too bad because baron did not get the crown !! it wasnt hers
And i would like to know which judges were in groups with her !!!…since u know her and her extra carricular activities so well. just now allu will say she was loving one or pay one of them …Get Real….the girls did not even know who there judges were until the night of the show
at least u win something finally
she tired look for fame…amen fairwell! you got it , congratz smh
LOL….#TeamTas all the way… c allu….just there with allu fameless selves…. When ppl hve ambition there’s nothing you can do to stop them. so let her be famous eh ! allu making as if is so much fing de grl do . alil QTS fing n allu talkin about fame… TASIA GIRL GET FAMOUS EH . MAKE UR BIG MONEY….and wait for den to pretend to know u wen u make it biig
where the pictures admin
The top performers were Ville case and Fond StJean ,give them their rightful place….
they did get their rightful place …. First and Second place
Tasia had no place in this competition,the competition was between Ms.Baron and Marissa Thomas
your opinion has no place in the judging
it pass already and she have her crown
Peace be onto all who seek guidance from the Most High. Tasia and I worked together; she is an exceptionally talented young lady. I want to extend to her if she reads this all the best in her endeavors in anything which is pleasing to the Most High.
Tasia, as a talented young lady you are invited to keep an equally open mind by exploring http://www.whyislam.org or http://www.islamreligion.com. The invitation is to research information from a different perspective and to seek guidance from the Most High alone in your journey.
all i want to know is who built the skirt we in the diaspora want to hire this individual
Well judged but dre were still a few mix ups cuz I doe see how d young lady wit d fone book pages doe get best spectacular wear.. Very original!! Dey give it to sumting we tired see at shows.. Fishing net!! She should have placed better too.. But dat was my top 4
what do you know about being original? are you blind?
And tell me what do you know about originality??? Did you see the costume!? All the fond st jean grl had was lights.. Maybe dats wat baffled the minds of the naïve like you
agreed to u… her costume looks like she was going for teenage pageant or something what so creative about putting glitter on a dress
True….The news paper costume was nice. Ms barons was too short….and come on..the same fish net?…even Dublanc had a nice costume
and since we’re on the topic of original….the news papers were original…and Ms FLoissac’s was as well..no one ever used news papers before and no one used only straws and foil before
well done my cuz made our community proud.Continue to excel cuz loves u. I know mummy is proud of u too.
Congratulations to Miss Wob Dwiyet. Also the same to the runners up. Each one did her utmost. Have fun for the rest of the entertainment.
