In the next few hours, the new Miss International will be crowned and majority of beauty pageant observers hope that history will be made. Indeed, the prospect of having the first African beauty queen to be crowned as Miss International is at its all time high. If this is the case, we are looking at Miss Nigeria Perpertual Ukadike as the winner but unfortunately, our beauty experts see it differently. They ranked her on the 5th place in the final Hot Picks.
Miss Czech Republic Alina Dementjeva tops this final Hot Picks thanks to her beauty that can be best described as the Miss International template. She’s a sizzling hot blonde bombshell with a lithe figure and a head-turning beauty. Her country is yet to win the crown but Miss International is known to favor European beauties and Alina is the strongest from the continent. If Miss International – known for its obstinacy despite the pressure to keep abreast with the times – decides to follow its proclivities, Alina has a pretty good shot at the crown.
If anyone can spoil the prospect of an Czech victory, that will be Miss Mexico Valeria Villanueva. Her Latina beauty is hard to miss and she caught the attention of beauty experts even before the competition started. In fact, she topped the Miss International 2024 Pre-Arrival Hot Picks.
Miss Australia Selina McCloskey settled at third place but she is a heavy favorite in the competition. Her beauty is ethereal and her interview skills are exceptional. She simply stands out in the crowd. Her country has a strong record at the pageant and if she will win today, she will be the fourth Australian Miss International. She also has the wind behind her back as her country is fresh from winning the Miss Earth title.
Another Latina beauty that is creating a lot of buzz is Miss Colombia Juanita Urrea. Don’t be surprised if she will walk away with the crown. She has been consistently strong in competition and she aced her preliminaries especially during the swimsuit segment. Her country has an excellent sash weight with 4 titles already on its kitty.
