All eyes are on the sunny island of Puerto Rico, as the 70th Miss World pageant officially kicks off. After two years of waiting, more than 100 candidates are set to battle it out for the elusive “blue crown”. As the contestants are busy with arrivals and registrations, our pool of editors and correspondents listed down the most impressive candidates so far for our Third Hot Picks.
Leading our Third Hot Picks is the stunning Alejandra Conde of Venezuela. After years of luckless campaigns, it seems the powerhouse country has found the formula to finally make a return in the Top 5 or even win its seventh Miss World crown. The momentum is on Alejandra’s side as she is one of the most popular candidates at the moment. This 24-year-old medical student has spent the past year polishing herself and working on her her social projects. Alejandra is definitely ready to win it all for Venezuela.
Not far behind is 23-year-old financial information exchange analyst Manasa Varanasi of India, who is already a formidable contender for the crown the moment she landed in Puerto Rico. This girl is eloquent! Manasa speaks with so much passion (which was very evident in her Beauty Talks episode with Missosology). If Miss World is looking for a spokesperson who walks the talk, then Manasa surely fits the bill.
Zooming up to the third spot is Poland’s Karolina Bielawska. Not as popular as the other delegates, but this 22-year-old masters degree in management student will make her a great ambassador given her dedication to her volunteer works. She even organised a pop-up Covid-19 vaccination centre for the homeless! Aside from that, she is also well-spoken and one day hopes to become a motivational speaker.
