I am woman of the earth spreading love and joy fun and laughter woman of the earth
making miracles forever after hey guys in the last two weeks I have been
watching the Miss Earth 2019 eco videos of every contestant except that of
Austria and Papua New Guinea which don't have one
the contestants ages range from 18 to 28 I've been following the pageant
activities leading to the finals night which will take place on October 26 in
Manila Philippines based on what has been posted on the internet and on
social media so far like photos videos random comments from pageant fans and on
the girls performance in two preliminary competitions phase and poise and figure
inform I have come up with my efficient list of top 20 favorites for the Miss
Earth 2019 crown and one of these contestants could win the title and that
start now in random order starting at number 20 with Miss Netherlands Nikki
Prein. I almost did not include Nikki on my list because I thought her eco video
was inadequate she does not elaborate on her advocacy and she poses most of the
time. However, since arriving in the Philippines three weeks ago she has
proven herself to be strong earth warrior by endlessly raising awareness
about pollution and gaining the admiration of pageant fans. At number 19
Venezuela - Michell Castellanos. Like the
Netherlands, Venezuela's advocacy is generic to raise awareness and to
educate others about the care and protection of the planet as stated in
her bio, although on her Eco video she focuses on recycling. But coming from
Venezuela which is the second most successful country in Miss Earth do we
really care what exactly her platform is? Isn't it enough that she's Miss Venezuela?
At number 19 - Mongolia, Azzaya Tsogt-Ochir. In
her bio it states Azzaya is an actress having starred in her
first movie when she was 5. DId you know that the most unusual thing she has
ever done is playing the role of a sack in a drama for kids? The role required
her to stay silent and moveless for a long time. She also used her acting
skills in her beautiful cinematic eco video. She believes that children and pregnant
women are the most vulnerable victims of air pollution and therefore we should
take action to protect ourselves and our next generation immediately. At 17 -
Germany, Kristyna Losova. This petite Czech-born 20-year old model, author, life
coach who speaks five languages may be small in stature but big in her advocacy
to reduce consumption of consumer goods and rare resources. According to Kristyna
99 percent of what we consume is toxifying and overwhelming the planet, and
to help diminish this problem she proposes that we purchase high quality
and sustainable products that will last long. There are some girls who join Miss
Earth just to have fun or pretend that they care about the planet. In Kristyna's
case, by watching her extraordinary eco video you can tell she's serious about
saving Mother Earth. At number 16 - Philippines, Janelle Tee. At age 28 Janelle is
the oldest contestant but she is also the most prepared. Ever since she was a
little girl Janelle had always dreamed of being a beauty queen. She competed in
Miss Philippines Earth twice, the first time in 2014 when she was 23 and when
she placed in the top 15. After a few years of hiatus she competed again in
2019 when the age limit was raised to 28 and lo and behold she won! Although I
found her eco video rather dull, she's nevertheless a good communicator and a
fierce competitor. At number 15 - Colombia, Yenny Carrillo. This 25 -year old law
student comes from one of the most biodiversed countries in the world. She
speaks English very well. Her advocacy is the preservation of exotic flora which
are in danger of extinction. During an interview with a vlogger she was asked
what advice she got from last year's Miss Earth Colombia and she replied
that Miss Earth Colombia is not just one former queen but all former queens who
have given her plenty of good advice the most important of which is just to be
herself, Colombia has placed 8 times in Miss
Earth and made the top 4 in 2016, 2017, and 2018. Many
believe that Yenny could bring to Colombia its first Miss Earth crown. At
number 14 - Spain, Sonia Hernandez. This 22 year old Spanish
beauty is a student of administration and marketing her
advocacy is to make the world free of plastic because it kills the planet's
flora and fauna. Sonia speaks English very well.
She's very bubbly and she looks nearly flawless in photos and videos. Spain has
placed seven times since it first competed in 2001. Its highest placement
was two third runner-up positions in 2007 and 2009. Can Sonia finally bring the crown to
Spain this year? We'll just have to find out on the October 26 finals. Att number
13, Czech Republic Klára Vavrušková. 20 year old Klára is a
student of biology and chemistry whose advocacy is the preservation of culture
and nature. What struck me about Klára the most is her sweet disposition. She's
the kind of person who could be your best friend because she's so sincere and
genuine. I find her looks captivating and she would be an ideal model for
Victoria's Secret. Czech girls do quite well in Miss Earth having placed 8
times and winning in 2012. I have a feeling that Klára could easily
make the top four and bring home her country's second Miss Earth crown. At
number 12 - Vietnam, Hoàng Thi Hanh. The first time I saw
Hoang's photos on social media I thought, "Oh well, she looks kind of plain and
Vietnam will not have a back-to-back winner this year." But I judged her too
quickly. Three weeks into the pageant, she has done very well in most of the pre-
pageant activitie. Her eco video is quite substantial and she speaks English
well though not as good as last year's delegate who is the current Miss Earth. And
her bio on the Miss Earth website does not look interesting.
Despite her so-so communication skills I still think she will earn a placement
and who knows perhaps take it all if luck is on her side. At number 11 - Ukraine
Diana Shabas. The first time I saw Ukraine's eco video I said to myself,
"Okay well this girl looks like she's auditioning for a modeling competition
and her advocacy, beauty for environmental cause, sounds
trivial and generic." But do I really care? No. Because the girl is simply gorgeous
and I'm more mesmerized by her looks than her hum-ho advocacy. Ukraine
debuted in Miss Earth in 2003 and has placed three times the last one in 2015.
I think Diana can easily make the top four or even win if she plays her cards
right and win the judges' votes. That's 10 down and 10 more to go but first I need a coffee
break. I'll be right back. At number 10 - New Zealand Tashan Kapene.I have to say
that Tashan has the most exquisite face in the entire competition. This 19 year-
old beauty's advocacy is to spread awareness of ocean pollution through
youth work, community service, and basic education. On her eco video she says that
she wants to be Miss Earth 2019 because she wants to be a global advocate not
only for New Zealand but also for the world. New Zealand has never placed since
it began competing in 2001. Let's hope that Tashan will break the curse and
become the first Kiwi beauty to place or even win. At number 9, Russia Anna Baksheeva.
This 18-year-old Russian beauty loves animals.
In fact her advocacy is to promote animal welfare and to stop animal abuse.
A student of economics, her dream is to become an actress.
She believes that she deserves the title of Miss Earth 2019 because she would
love to get Mother Earth a wonderful and bright future by taking care of her. She
thinks too that eco tourism provides the traveler the opportunity to make a
lasting impact on communities and destinations to visit. That's Miss Russia!
At number eight, Poland, Krystyna Sokolowska. This 22 year-old
earth warrior queen won the gold medal in the swimsuit competition for the Fire
group and deservingly so. Krystyna has one of the most amazing bodies as well
as one of the most naturally beautiful faces in the pageant. She is a
professional coach for girls' gymnastics and is a student of economics. Poland has
placed eight times in Miss Earth but has never won the crown. Krystyna could well
be the very first woman from her country to be crowned
Miss Earth. At number seven, Nepal Riya Basnet. Nepalese girls have been sending
strong candidates lately to various international pageants.
23 year-old Ria is yet another one of these strong contestants from Nepal
which is sometimes called as "the roof of the world" because of its high elevation
and because of its most famous landmark Mount Everest. Ria is a Business
Administration graduate and her platform is to encourage local participation of
communities in order to create a sustainable future. That's Nepal!
At number 6 - Portugal Bruna Siva. This stunner is one
of the youngest in the group. Despite only being 18, Bruna has proven herself to be
just as strong as the girls older than her. Her eco video contains great content.
She speaks English very well and she's beautiful with or without makeup. Did you
know that she started caring about Mother Earth since she was a 9 year old
girl scout? At number 5 - Belarus Alisa Manenok. the 6-foot tall
24 year-old glamazon is a professional model and former volleyball player. I
love her advocacy - promoting natural beauty natural cosmetics without animal
testing, clothing recycling and separate garbage collection.This year is only the
third time that Belarus has participated in the pageant and with Alisa's strong
environmental advocacy and great natural looks she could bring the first Miss
Earth crown to her country. At number 4 USA - Emanii Davis. To Miss USA fans Emanii looks
very familiar because she competed in Miss USA 2016 where she placed second runner-up.
Now as Miss Earth USA Emanii is winning a lot of admirers because of
her beauty, grace, poise, and eloquence. her eco video is one of the best videos
of any US representative that I've ever seen but she doesn't mention her
specific advocacy on it. Nevertheless she proves to be the
strongest American representative to date and could win her country's first
Miss Earth crown. At number three, Puerto Rico, Nellys Pimentel.
21-year-old Nellys is one of the tallest contestants
at 5 feet 11 inches tall. Because of her height and her beautiful dusky
complexion, you cannot miss her as she stands out everywhere she goes. Her
advocacy is to stop the use of products that harm the environment and to educate
the public. This bright young woman has a bachelor's degree in psychology and
marketing and plans to pursue a master's degree in psychology and use art to
practice psychotherapy. Puerto Rico's best placement so far was winning the
elemental title of Miss Earth Fire in 2010. I believe that Nellys can surpass
that feat and win Puerto Rico's first ever Miss Earth crown. At number 2 - Ghana
Evelyn Appiah. This 26 year-old flight attendant has been causing commotion
since she arrived in Manila. The tall, statuesque African beauty is a pageant
veteran having competed in several pageants which helped her improve her
performance in Miss Earth. She has gained a huge following from Filipino fans who
find her approachable, down-to-earth, charming, and vivacious. She has also won
the most number of medals and preliminary events - a total of five. Her
eco video was uploaded on October 18 and the official Miss Earth Facebook page
and I have just watched it I thought it was a theatrical, scripted, and contrived
but I don't think anyone cares about the video at this point because she's
practically acing the entire competition. Go Ghana! And at number one - my favorite for the
crown is India - Tejaswini Manogna Tejaswini is the only medical doctor
competing in Miss Earth. Ever since this 25-year old beauty was crowned Miss
Earth India over a month ago - Tejaswini or Dr. T as her fans would
address her .quickly became one of the favorites for the crown. A woman of many
talents. Dr. T is also a yoga practitioner who is passionate about
social work and aims to serve people to the best of her ability. From her
excellent eco video to her impressive background Dr. T is here to win it.
In her bio she stated that in her tender age she was a systematic, self-motivated,
and disciplined child who used to cut newspaper articles of eminent
personalities who have contributed to Mother Earth. Little does she know
that she would grow up to become even more systematic, more self motivated, and
more disciplined - three important qualities that would make an ideal Miss
Earth. There are 10 countries that are bubbling under my list and I consider
them as alternates: Belgium, England, Guyana, Armenia, Malta, Nigeria, South Sudan,
Chile, Guatemala, and Indonesia. Any of these countries could pull a surprise.
"loving, caring, working, sharing, teaching, singing, mothering" And there you have it.
