MISS JAMAICA WORLD 2010

Jamaica Observer, 23-aug-2010: The second time seems to be the charm for Chantal Raymond, 24. After a previous attempt at the Miss Jamaica World title in 2008, she decided to give it a shot this year, and on Saturday night, walked away with the title, prizes and the opportunity to represent Jamaica at Miss World in Sanya, China, later this year. Raymond, a graduate of the prestigious Harvard Law School, was definitely among the night's favourites inside the ballroom of the Jamaica Pegasus Hotel. First runner-up was 23-year-old student Kerry Moxam, while architecture student, Amanda-Lee McCreath, 23, was second runner-up.

PICK FIVE

Today's Pick of the Day is, well, impossible. With the presentation show last night, today is a Pick Five day, sort of like the lottery! We'll do pick five from A-L today; we'll pick five from M-Z tomorrow. Today's Pick Five from A-L are: Miss Albania; Miss Angola; Miss Ireland; Miss Jamaica; and Miss Kosovo. The Universe shimmered and shined last night, thanks to them! Dean Harris could even see this year's universal battle coming down to Ireland and Jamaica - he has declared that there may be no real need to Pick Five M-Z, because it will come down to I and J!
