Missosology selected the candidates that made it into the semifinals of the three competitions: beach fashion, talent, and top model. Because each contest carry a weight in selecting the semifinalists, one can be forgiven for deducing that these contestants are currently leading in the race to the Miss World crown.

Miss Australia Jessica Kahawaty - the Lebanese-Australian can bank on her experience to help her through the challenge. She is beautiful, confident and has vastly improved.

Miss Brazil Mariana Notarangelo - She was grossly underestimated but this Brazilian beauty is gaining traction. An article was recently written by Missosology urging fans not to ignore.

Miss China PR Wen Xia Yu - The host delegate is strongest we've seen since 2007. She is in by her own merits and not for being the local girl.

Miss Israel Shani Hazan - Thought to be just overhyped but this girl proved many doubters wrong. She is consistent and she is a possible leader in many of the contests.

Miss Jamaica Deanna Robins - She is also underestimated and her placements in many contests will now give justice to her qualities. Jamaica is a historically strong country in the pageant so Deanna has the "sash factor" to back her up.

Miss Kazakhstan Evgeniya Klishina - she appeared to be begging for attention which irks many conservative beauty observers. But whatever she is doing is working. She is beautiful and whether is should tone down her antics or not will largely on the results of pending contests.

Miss Mongolia Bayarmaa Huselbaatar - Her World Designer Dress was considered as ridiculous by a lot of people but her cultural, demographic and geographic affiliation with the host city is paying off. She got the attention of the organization, that's for sure!

Miss Philippines Queenierich Rehman - Philippines should have a Miss World crown by now and if Miss World really wants to have the affection of the world's most fanatic beauty fans, she should give this country the title. Other than that, Queenierich is beautiful, sexy and has the aloof personality and goody-goody image that Miss World Org truly adores.
