Miss World 2004 presenta su revista "Maju"
La siempre regia María Julia Mantilla se encuentra emocionada con su nuevo proyecto. La revista “Maju” nace para ella como una oportunidad de resaltar aquellos valores nacionales de la moda y el modelaje que aún no se conocen tanto.
Vistiendo un espectacular vestido marrón, nuestra ex Miss Mundo sostuvo: “Tenemos una edición de verano, tenemos temas de ropa, diseño, modas, cuidados del cuerpo para mujer y hasta gastronomía. También contamos con temas de responsabilidad social”.
“Queremos que modelos que muchos no conocen estén en esta revista. Yo conozco a muchas chicas muy jóvenes que recién empiezan y no sabes lo profesionales que son. Se van a Suiza, Nueva York como Juanita Burga, pero aquí no las conocemos”, explica Maju.
La publicación de María Julia Mantilla lleva por nombre “Maju” y saldrá a partir de hoy, viernes 12 de febrero, para todos los suscriptores de El Comercio. No tendrá ningún precio adicional y en un primer momento se editará trimestralmente.
Samantha Tshuma Crowned Miss Tourism Zimbabwe 2010
If it had been up to the crowd, Bulawayo beauty Samantha Tshuma, would have been crowned the winner during the very first round of the Miss Tourism Zimbabwe pageant last night (6 Feb 2010). She had the packed auditorium of the Harare International Conference Centre cheering for her from the very beginning of the evening. The judges agreed with them it seems and Samantha was unanimously crowned Miss Tourism Zimbabwe 2010.
I First Princess was Chido Mashaya from Harare and Second Princess was Tafadzwa Mugambizi of Masvingo. Nyaradzo Muchemenyi from Manicaland was crowned Miss Personality while Bulawayo girl Michelle Gonah was selected through SMS voting as Miss Face of Zimbabwe.
But the night belonged to Samantha Tshuma. The tall and graceful 21 year-old beauty from the City of Kings attracted loud cheers each time she took to the ramp stood out with her poise and confidence.
The high powered judges panel included CEO of Rainbow Tourism Group Ms Chipo Mutasa, CEO of ZBC Holdings Mr Happyson Muchechetere, Vice Chancellor of the Women’s University in Africa Dr Hope Sadza, Internationally renowned Sculptor Dominic Benhura and Director of the National Arts Council of Zimbabwe, Mr Elvas Mari.
Zimbabweans came out en masse, and in style, for the pageant. Over 4000 people packed into the HICC. People kept on streaming in during the show and for those who came late it was standing room only.
The crowd was kept entertained by an impressive line-up of urban artists who included Cindy Munyavi, Leonard Mapfumo, Madiz and Stunner. Hosts for the evening were Bridget Gavanga and Tich Mataz.

Organizer backs out of 2010 Miss World contest
The authorized organizer of the 2010 Miss World pageant in Vietnam on Friday made a surprise withdrawal from the event, claiming it did not want to get embroiled in an inter-provincial dispute.
Chairman of US-based Rare Antibody Antigen Supply (RAAS), Hoang Kieu, said his company would not organize this year’s pageant as it does not want to “hurt the relationship between Khanh Hoa and Tien Giang,” the provinces caught in a dispute over the official venue for the event.
Both the government and the Miss World Organization have authorized RAAS as the organizer of the event in Vietnam.
At first, the company planned to hold the pageant in the central coastal province of Khanh Hoa and intended to build a resort there as the event venue.
But the resort project was criticized by experts on concerns it would destroy the environment of the Nha Trang Bay, causing RAAS to drop the plan in November 2008.
About a year later RAAS said it would shift the event to Tien Giang Province in the Mekong Delta and would construct a five-star ecotourism resort for the pageant.
The administration of Khanh Hoa Province, however, said the central government has granted the right for Khanh Hoa to host the event and that a venue change could not be decided unilaterally by RAAS. The province had already hosted the Miss Universe contest in August 2008.
Now that RAAS has withdrawn from the beauty pageant, Khanh Hoa Province will have to confirm with the Miss World Organization that it has the US$10 million needed to organize the event itself by February 12.
Le Xuan Than, deputy chairman of Khanh Hoa People’s Committee, said Friday that provincial authorities would decide whether to hold the event next week.
The Performing Arts Department, under the Ministry of Culture, Sports and Tourism, said the government will not allocate state budget for the pageant, suggesting Khanh Hoa should raise funds from both foreign and domestic sponsors to organize the event.

Gibraltar ganó Miss World 2009
La representante de Gibraltar, Kaiane Aldorino, fue proclamada hoy Miss World 2009 en Johannesburgo tras el tradicional desfile de 16 finalistas, elegidas de entre 112 concursantes procedentes de todos los continentes.
Aldorino, que recibió además el premio "Miss Belleza Playera", tuvo a la mexicana Perla Beltrán Acosta y a la sudafricana Tatum Keshwar como primera y segunda dama de honor, respectivamente.
El espectáculo de luces, colores y sonrisas deslumbrantes que caracterizan al famoso concurso de belleza femenina -propiedad de Miss World Limited- se celebró este año en el Centro de Convenciones Gallagher, a las afueras de Johannesburgo.
Las jóvenes, que llegaron el 14 de noviembre a Johannesburgo, participaron antes de la final en concursos previos que eligieron a "Miss Mundo Deportista" 2009, que ganó Miss Japón; "Miss Belleza Playera", que recayó en la gibraltareña; "Mejor modelo", en el que se impuso la representante mexicana, y "Mejor talento", en la que compartieron el primer puesto las de Canadá y de Sierra Leona.
El último evento especial antes de la elección de Miss Mundo fue el premio a la "Mejor belleza con un propósito", que recayó en la representante de India.
Sudáfrica ha sido el país anfitrión de Miss Mundo en nueve ocasiones y este es el segundo año consecutivo que el evento es organizado en Johannesburgo.
Pese a todo el esplendor de la gala final, esta edición se ha visto empañada por dos historias, con visos de escándalo, publicadas por el semanario Mail and Guardian, al que Miss World Ltd. trató de silenciar mediante un recurso de amparo, que no prosperó.
Una se refería al vínculo de Miss Indonesia, Kerenina Sunny Halim, con "La Familia Internacional" (anteriormente llamado "Los Niños de Dios"), controvertido culto de corte integrista evangélico involucrado en supuestos actos de pederastia.
La otra son las críticas recibidas por las autoridades de Johannesburgo por gastar 90 millones de rand (12 millones de dólares) en las festividades de Miss Mundo cuando la municipalidad ha tenido que reducir su presupuesto anual debido a la difícil situación económica.
Miss World Limited ha puntualizado que las concursantes participan en actividades sociales, culturales y humanitarias en línea con el postulado de "Belleza con un propósito" que sostiene la compañía.
