hungary will be represented by actress reka lukacs, as what i have said in my previous post, it is a new franchise holder for 2018 as the previous franchise holder was unable to complete the requirements. miss earth does not wait on anyone, so let us welcome reka and the new franchise holder to the miss earth family.
cameroon is gunning for a back to back placement with the statuesque model audrey monkam represent this african country at miss earth 2018.
curacao will come back for 2018 after missing for almost four years. this paradise carribbean nation will be represented curvaceous beauty alexandra atalita.she is a certified earth advocate and a woman who knows what she wants and makes them a reality. she has been a nature lover and has worked a lot of projects that benefit the environment.
miss earth colombia happened few weeks ago, their prepageant activities were good. environmental activities as well as eco tourism were highlighted throughout the pageant. several international beauty queens were also invited to grace the pageant including miss earth 2017 karen ibasco.national directors paul marsell from mexico and cesar anel were also present .
kudos to miss earth colombia 2017 juliana franco for working so hard in trying to spread the message of environmental protection in her country and the whole latin america.she really did a splendid job during her whole reign.
in my humble opinion , the final show was a let down, it needed major improvement. it felt like a small town pageant rather than a national pageant.considering how big pageants are in colombia, that means the market has not been properly tapped. i think partnering with a tv station will work wonders on growing the miss earth brand in colombia.i hope the miss earth colombia team can do this,market the pageant to tv channels, i support them in making the miss earth brand known in colombia. the new miss earth colombia is valeria ayos.
on september 7, three baltic countries will crown their earth goddess for 2018. miss earth bosnia and herzigovina, miss earth croatia and the debut of miss earth montenegro. im excited to see because bosnia and croatia always send very competitive girls to miss earth and i know this year will be no exception.
miss earth poland will also stage their inaugural pageant under new director francys sudnicka. she is doing a fantastic job with a tv network broadcast, lots of sponsor support and what a stunning group of girls competing for the crown.
the miss earth poland has become a full fledged thriving pageant with fun filled activities as well as tv appearances for the girls.so proud of francys and her partner lukas szarnecki , and this is just their first year. looking forward for miss earth poland to expand its reach in the coming years, i am very positive it will.my top two favorites are aleksandra grysz who has a very sunny aura and bubbly personality perfect for miss earth and patrycja sobolewska who has the face of a goddess, she is without a doubt the most beautiful of the girls this year.
another miss earth stronghold in europe is miss earth slovenia, its one of its most established exclusive pageant. it has been steadily fluorishing throughout the years and is the most established beauty pageant in slovenia.they have activities that go for almost 6 months and the winner receives robust amount of prizes.the new slovenian earth goddess will be crowned on september 15th, my favorite for the crown is danijela burjan.
now let us go into the tidbits miss earth fans come here for, the miss earth 2018 host will still be james deakin. let us all hope boracay island will be ready in time for miss earth, the construction is full blast but we will see if it will be ready for the girls to go at the end of october.
as for the semifinalists, a production meeting is going to be happening soon where it will be decided if it will be a top 16 or top 18 to be called on the finals night. the semifinalists will be chosen by continental judging , let us hope they bring back the 2016 selection , where the top 8 scorers make the semifinalists and the rest of the 8 were chosen via continents.let us voice our opinions to carousel as this for me is the fairest way of choosing the top 16.but as of now, it will be via continental judging, i still think 2016 has the best set of semifinalists due to the fact the strongest 8 girls really made it and not cut off prematurely due to the limited spots in the continental judging.remember if the full continental judging was applied in 2016, the eventual winner katherine espin would have not made the top 16 and one other elemental winner which im not going to mention.
many of you earthlings have always wondered when will the candidates reach over 90 or even over 100, well there is a reason why it has not reached those numbers. carousel limits the amount of candidates they accept every year. the maximum they accept is 90 and nothing over that. i hope they will make adjustments this year but apparently it will still remain the same for 2018, so expect the number of candidates to be 80 plus for 2018.
scotland and wales will field candidates this year, it will be a different organization from years past.austria and sweden are still pending, it will depend if there will be back outs if it reaches 90 confirmed then they will have to be cut off. but there are new franchise holders interested to send for austria and sweden. miss austria corporation changed owners and management this year and they decided to send a candidate in 2019 instead.lithuania will possibly send a candidate in 2019, she is very stunning too, she was supposed to compete this year unfortunately she had modelling assignments already booked from months before that will coincide with the dates of miss earth 2018.for india we will know next week as to who will be able to complete the requirements to be franchise holders of miss earth in india for three years. yes the contract offered is for three years. nicole faria miss earth 2010 was approached by carousel and she is interested , nikhil anand the previous franchise holder in 2015 expressed his desire to reacquire the franchise , let us see who carousel will announce next week as the official franchise holder.
as for the panama trip of karen and juliana it was cancelled and the panama director discussed it with karen as well as colombia director when he was in bogota for miss earth colombia finals. he said he will invite karen instead in mid september with two other international beauty queens. let us just wait if this will really happen and not expect too much.
bulgaria will also come back this year, as for iceland two directors actually contacted carousel to send a candidate this year, but it was miss universe iceland org .who confirmed and completed requirements first so they got the franchise. the original girl they were supposed to send felt she was not ready for a big international pageant with the limited time , so expect another candidate from iceland.
everyone is already excited, its about a month until arrivals yet it is already the most talked about pageant in social media. no matter what bashers do, miss earth will always be a pageant to watch out for every year and you cannot pay your way or sabotage your way into making that happen in your pageant. miss earth hasa very solid strong fan base that is top 2 in the whole world.
the biggest rocket in venezuelan pageantry has soared into unbelievable height and it will stay up there for as long as miss earth pageant exists.miss earth venezuela has just sealed its status as the number 1 pageant in venezuela nowadays. while other pageants are embroiled in controversy after controversy, miss earth venezuela is reaing success after success, fluorishing despite the economic crisis happening in their country.miss earth venezuela 2018 again made histroy being the number one social media topic in venezuela and number 2 in the whole world. record breaking views on tv as well as online via youtube and other social media sites. everything miss earth venezuela touches, turn into gold and diamonds.
opening number is dazzling ,dramatic and nothing short of spectacular . venezuela talent was on display to the maximum with modern lighting, great stage, marvelous choreography ,splendid concept and sensational presentation. makes you nostalgic about what beauty and pageantry really means , beautiful, exciting, celebrations and a feeling of being up there in the stars for one night.
for 2018 the pageant veered away from the usual, this time they chose 12 semifinalists plus one voted by social media . the pageant was really fast paced which made every moment thrilling .
the fiery swimsuit competition always brings a lot of frenzy and fanfare. aran one performed his latest hit" pecar contigo" accompanying the sexy sassy pasarela of the girls. swimsuits were provided by world swimsuits , and as usual wardrobe malfunction happened again this year. though it was more subtle as miss vargas top was accidentally off exposing her breasts ,due to miss barinas stepping on her cape. but it was barely seen from the telecast as she was on her way exiting the stage , as with any live show , unexpected things can happen.the girls handled it with grace like the pro they are.
top 8 finalists announcement
after the top 8 was selected the ladies paraded in their exquisite evening gowns from the newest collection of famed venezuelan designer hugo espina. the ladies sashayed with elegance ,finesse and impeccable style. accompanied by patricia zavala with her hit song "un beso", i cant get anough of this part the music is so perfect background for the finalists to showcase their gracefulness and poise wearing alluring evening gowns.
after parading in evening gowns the top 8 were asked to speak about a #hashtag they have chose from a bowl. this is a unique feature only miss earth has started and an innovation unique to miss earth. remember in 2017 all the stunning favorites for miss earth 2017 buckled in this round thus prevented them to enter the top 4.
after two round of competition the top 8 were whittled down to the top 4 where they answered the same question. only miss earth venezuela has ever done this in venezuelan pageantry. other venezuelan pageants have stuck to their format for 50 years. miss earth venezuela is never afraid to be different and to try something new . thats why they are so successful, they have modern progressive minds, similar to the miss earth pageant who always creates new innovations in pageantry.
sponsors gave special awards to the rightful girls they think reepresent their brands the best way.
miss apure luisana hernandez awarded most glamorous by the official stylist of miss earth venezuela 2018.
miss zulia lediannys bello best talent and is given an exclusive contract to start in different tv shows and news porgrams of globovision for a whole year.
miss guarico gabriella vasquez awarded best smile by official odontologist of miss earth venezuela 2018 tomas seif.
miss lara awarded most integral by revista magazine ,official media partner of miss earth venezuela 2018.
miss tachira sarile gonzales awarded best figure by official cosmetic surgeon of miss earth venezuela sharon cimolino and miss photogenic chosen by the photographers represented by alfonso lopez.
the final moment of the night , the pinnacle of months of hardwork, the new miss earth venezuela is diana silva from lara. back to back win for the state of lara as miss earth venezuela 2017 ninoska vasquez also come from the state of lara. diana deserves the crown, she performed the best the whole night and she is absolutely stunning and will be a major contender come miss earth 2018 goddess pageant.
the elemetal court included miss aire sarile gonzalez representing tachira, i correctly predicted the top 2. sarile is very beautiful too, she has angelic sweet features and is also a worthy queen. miss agua went to miss carabobo katherine rodriguez, she was the most polished queen of the night and really was remarkable onstage. miss fuego is the face of the pageant, the most beautiful face for miss miss falcon veronica araque. i would say this top 4 is the most beautiful set of queens venezuela has produced in a long time in all pageants.
after alyz won in 2013 , diana silva is the strongest venezuelan candidate sent to miss earth. diana is a complete woman, she is beautiful, she has one of the best bodies for 2018 , has the perfect height, amazing stage presence. she also speaks english , is smart , well spoken ,intelligent and cunning in the way she carries herself in pageant activities as well as onstage. there is a difference between a mere catwalk queen between a winning stage presence, diana knows how to execute the winning aura during coronation night.she is the most cognizant of all the recent winners of miss earth venezuela on what it takes to win the crown. she is humble and has an easy going personality which is the perfect fit for a miss earth queen , as she has to face different people from all walks of life and all economic orientations during the pageant as well as during her reign when she wins.watch out for this girl, as she might be the one who could finally take the third crown for venezuela in miss earth.there is no facet of pageant armory she is lacking, in fact she excels in all of them.
miss earth should be very proud of what alyz henrich and prince julio cesar as well as their media partner globovision is doing in venezuela. they have been making the miss earth brand the premiere pageant in venezuela. they were able to stage a spectacular show and production ,where other pageants are struggling, they are porsperous and successful.the best miss earth franchise for sure and i know it will continue to do so for many years.
miss earth queens are stepping up and creating their own history in their country and to the world of pageantry. one of the most promising is miss earth 2016 katherine espin who is currently making waves in ecuador as the new national director. we have not seen the miss earth brand promoted and organized so professionally ever until katherin espin. she has formed a formidable team that would make miss earth a solid substantial clout in ecuadorian pageantry and society.
katherine espin with director of production and marketing poleth velasco ,official cosmetic surgeon dr. juan carlos estrada, official odontology surgeon sandra garcia moscoso and oscar salinas official trainor for miss earth ecuador winner.
katherine espin with the regional directors of the different pageants in various regions of ecuador. katherine espin made possible regional contests as well as tv partnership on her first year in charge, amazing.
another miss earth queen who is gaining momentum in europe is miss earth poland 2006 francys sudnicka who will stage her very first miss earth poland pageant in spetember. together with her partner lucas czarnecki , they have attracted one of the loveliest bunch of earth goddesses in poland giving lots of miss earth fans all over headache in choosing who is the most beautiful goddess to represent oland at miss earth 2018.
francys with lucas szarnecki during miss earth 2017 pageant where the deal was sealed for the change in directorship in poland for 2018.

air - patrycja sobolewska
water- kaja klimkiewicz
fire - zuzanna kuchajewicz

miss earth puerto rico 2005 and top 8 finalist vanessa de roide is the new national director for miss earth puerto rico. i think this time miss earth has found the best director that can make the miss earth brand develop and build a strong base in puerto rico. vanessa has wanted the franchise for a long time as miss earth is very close to her heart . now it has finally happened , i know we will only see great things coming up in puerto rico with vanessa holding the franchise.vanessa is a well established celebrity in latin america , she has been on several tv shows and won nuestra belleza latina in 2012. she also has a modelling agency , owns a model search and runs several pageants so she knows the ins and outs of the pageant industry.
