“Life goes on even if you don’t win,” says malaysia's own Deborah Henry on her miss world experience. Henry said it would have been good if the judges had given clear instructions to the participants. “They wanted somebody who was graceful, elegant and a good communicator, but it would have been nicer if they had given clearer instructions on what they wanted.”

Miss Malaysia was hot favorite to bring home miss world tiara. globalbeauties.com named her superwoman for her personal achievements & she was described as the perfect example on what a miss world title-holder should be. thanks GB! she's definitely qualified

viva venezuela

venezuela (no. 1 in GB's grand slam) is most well-represented country of the year. here's the dream team :

ms venezuela/universe : ly jonaitis (2nd runner up)
ms venezuela/world : claudia paola suarez (top 16)
ms venezuela/earth : silvana santaela (miss water)
ms venezuela/international : vanessa peretti (top 15)

if only claudia suarez wore this black mermaid dress for miss world, she would have been noticed to make it to the final. this mermaid dress is certainly more fashion forward than the mermaid on the winner. LOVE that silhouette on her hip

absolute-LY fabulous

Lidymar "Ly" Carolina Jonaitis Escalona of Venezuela is GB's '07 Sexiest Woman Alive. miss greece/universe '07 Doukissa Nomikou should thank globalbeauties.com for their endless support, they put her on the runner-up (surprisingly). miss brazil/universe finished 3rd.
