113 of the world’s most beautiful women touched down in Johannesburg today, with a warm African welcome from singers and dancers, for the start of the Miss World Festival culminating in a not-to-be-missed extravaganza at Gallagher Convention Centre on December 12 when one woman will be crowned Miss World 2009.
Also in the entourage is the reigning Miss World, (Russian) Kseniya Sukhinova, who will be handing over her title and many South Africans hoping that Tatum Keshwar will be in the running to take the crown.
Miss World is the benchmark for beauty across cultures. To date the most titles awarded to a country are India and Venezuela (5); United Kingdom (4); Iceland, Jamaica and Sweden (3) and South Africa joining seven other countries who have won the title twice.
The City of Gold will be hosting this spectacle for the second year running and will be showcasing its charms as well as those of the 113 represented countries.
The contestants have a busy month-long schedule before the finale. Jozi residents will be able to get a good look at the gorgeous contestants when the pay visits to various events across the city including trips to Soweto and Soccer City as well as the Johannesburg Zoo for the Miss World Children’s Christmas Party.
It’s not only the City of Gold who will be exposed to their charms. They take an extensive nationwide tour including a visit to the Eastern Cape from November 16 to 18 where they will participate in the Miss World Sport Final before returning to Joahnnesburg for the Miss World World Talent Final on November 22. They travel to Kwa-Zulu Natal from November 23 to 25 for the Miss World Beach Beauty Final and then are back in Johannesburg for the Miss World Fashion final on 28 November.
Then the attention shifts to the Miss World contest itself – now in its 59th year –which is a live two hour broadcast on SABC 3 from Gallagher Estate starting at 17h00 on Saturday December 12.
