Jamaica’s Sanneta Myrie Finishes in Top 5 of Miss World 2015
Jamaica’s representative at the 65th Miss World Competition today finished in the top 5 at the event in Sanya, China.
Spain won the competition, with Russia placing second, Indonesia third, Lebanon fourth, and Jamaica fifth.
After earning a spot in the final five, Dr Myrie was asked why she should be Miss World 2015.
She responded by stating that she was already grateful for the opportunity to be in China representing her country.
“My story is one of a little girl whose life was transformed with charity and love and my quest in life is to give that back to as many people as I can, and to inspire the world with my story, that no matter where you are from, your skin type your hair colour, your situation — your dreams are valid.
“And I believe that beauty with a purpose embodies my quest and if I was blessed with the crown tonight, I would dedicate my essence to give back to the world in a purposeful and beautiful way with charity and love,” she said.
Myrie finished in the final five from a total of more than 120 contestants.
