    Smh, how could the organisers even think of having a show with only 2 contestants? This is just a waste of money. So if I didn't win, I can walk around saying I got 1st Runner Up position? In the whole of BVI they only have 2 people ?????
    This show should be shelved until they find persons to enter and make this an economic success or else we the laughing stock of the Caribbean.

      I agree. As much as it isn't the 2 young ladies fault that other interests weren't there, the committee in charge should not have allowed this to come to this point with only two contestants. It just makes sense to table the competition until another contestant comes, or not have it due to lack of interest.

    Come on, We Black People, let's get it together!

    Are we able to invest in competitions that are truly important to society, like seeing who can set up the best business model while still being ethical?
