To say that Mireia Lalaguna’s victory at Miss World is unexpected is an understatement. The Miss World 2015 pageant has been an open game from the start and with no clear front-runner. It was as if anyone could be crowned as Miss World.

But Mireia gained a upper hand during the Top Model contest. She won this particular challenge and it was evident that her model-like physique earned her a lot of points. Sure, more women are physically beautiful than Mireia but she is a genuine person with a sweet attitude. There’s more about her than one can see on the surface and it’s something that Miss World loves.

How Mireia ended up with the coveted blue crown on her head was a roller coaster ride. From the start she was outside the Top 10. Then as the scores were added, her Top Model win gave her a boost. Then as the scores were reset to zero, the judges saw something special about her. The sincerity in her attitude, the sweetness in her actions, the purity of her heart – all somehow manifested before the eyes of the judges.

In her glittering blue gown, the 23 year-old beauty who hails from the Catalan region gave her nation its first ever Miss World crown. Mireia could even be a unifying figure considering that her region is trying to breakaway from the rest of her country. She is a Catalan woman who is proud to wear the sash of Spain. She is indeed an iconic figure to those who wish to see her country intact.

As unexpected it may be, Mireia Lalaguna’s victory is truly deserving. No one saw her star shining from the beginning. She is always in the dark horse or bubbling-up category. Yet at the finals night she emerged on the top despite the tight competition. Her personality above all else made her win. And as is always the case, personality can sometimes impress us in an unexpected ways.
