The beauties of group 5 took part in the Head to Head challenge of Miss World 2017. They all were looking lovely and their confidence shined throughout. Let’s see who were best in their introductory video and answers.

The final question in the last segment for this group was, “What are some of the benefits of being with women from 120 nations around the world and what have you learned?”

The introductory of Alanna Matamaru Smith from the Cook Islands seemed the best of the lot with her genuineness and her love for water. She can be called a true water baby, and in the competition, you can see that what she has portrayed in the video is her genuine self.

Her final answer was most impressive where she said –

“Thank you, Frankie. Can I just start by saying it’s such a rare opportunity to have 120 different nations all together as one group. So that alone is just an awesome opportunity to learn about the different cultures which the Miss World competition offers. We were able to see this through the ‘dances of the world’ and to learn about the different issues that each country has. So, learning about the different cultures, issues, beliefs, and religions from around the world, that is what I have most definitely learned from being in this competition.”

Jodie Garcia Miss World Gibraltar 2017 was a calming factor in this lot of contestants. She had the perfect poise and elegance in her conduct. Through her video and answer, she came across as a very passionate person. Her answer to the final question was -

“Well thanks to Miss World bringing so many countries, it’s given us a chance to learn so much about different cultures, different religions and apart from learning a lot of interesting facts about these countries I have learned personally. Even though there were language barriers, I have made friends for life.”

Paola Oberladstatter from Paraguay touched our hearts by sharing her childhood photos in the introductory video and she also spoke about her passion for dancing which she derived from her family. Her answer in the last segment was as follows -

“As Colombia said, not only do we get to have friends worldwide, it’s emotional to see how each country has its own culture and traditions, and this for me is an incredible experience.”

Vanity Girigori from Curacao mentioned her special talent of speaking Mandarin in her video and expressed how excited she is to test her skills in China. María Beatriz Daza Nuñez Miss World Colombia 2017 talked about women being the centre of the family in Colombia. Filipa Barroso from Portugal talked about her love of animals.
