Good luck Kamyce
There's something called a CRITERIA! Learn more about it if you desire to critique any show and question why a certain individual or country won it.
Miss St.Kitts won and in my opinion she deserves the crown.Better luck next time.
Miss BVI but she was a little out of key and pitchy at times in her talent. She has potential as a singer but for a competition, she should have trained her voice a little more and work on transitions from key to key and manage her runs and pitch. Her gown was too simple and she carried it just okay. Nothing spectacular. She was okay in the production but didn't stand out. Miss St. Kitts has a great stage persona. I went to their local talented teen pageant and I must say, there will be another strong St. Kitts contestant coming next year. Look out. I just hope our BVI girl comes hard next year. St. Kitts has been doing well in pageants around the caribbean lately, not only in their own country.
Just an unbiased BVI opinion.
