Miss Earth 2024 is now on full swing and for the 2nd Hot Picks, we asked our correspondents who are on the ground covering various pre-pageant activities to come up with their top choices. Topping their list is Miss USA Bea Millan-Windorski. Bea has shown lots of composure and elegance and she had a great start by bagging a gold during the Best Philippine Heritage Attire Award. Also, as the representative of a beauty superpower nation, she has a lot of sash weight in her favor.
Miss Peru Niva Antezana meanwhile occupies the second spot. She has been a early favorite thanks to her beauty with undeniable Latina flair. She has also won a gold medal during a fashion show. Climbing from the fifth to third spot is Miss Australia Jessica Lane. A blonde barbie, she was bestowed with Darling of the Press award for Asia and Oceania.
Completing the Top 5 of this list is Miss Iceland Hrafnhildur Haraldsdóttir and Miss Russia Ekaterina Romanova. Hrafnhildur is considered as the leading European candidate and was in fact awarded with Darling of the Press for Europe group. Ekaterina on the other hand is yet to win an award but our correspondents claim that is one of the heavy favorites for the crown thanks to her ethereal beauty!
