It’s difficult to comment on this one.
Well I watch the show on YouTube and I realize they only choose two people the queen and first runner up
Let’s just appreciate the fact that she grateful to the people that made her participation possible. At least she not ungrateful
Just participating is already a great achievement.
Agreed
What’s all these about despite not winning the woman won two segments and a tie she did great. If you get that link and watch it on YouTube you will see how the show went and who should get first runner up or second they only place to persons. Which show has two winners only as a queen show
I agree to this comment. on like two of the ministers that she went to for sponsors turn her down she still represent Antigua with the help of her little sponsors and family .Mostly I should say she did it on her own all alone. If she have gotten all that she needed just knowing she’s very talented you probably would have won.
Also. Girl you are beautiful I watch the show on YouTube your dress is more like a queen dress than all the other dresses your work is a Queens walk I saw the show people go on YouTube find that link or message that woman so you can get the link I’ll watch the show for yourself the only thing I think a question and answer the person who got it deserve it but resort wear and evening wear yes
