Number 1 – Tonga and Macedonia: queens without a crown
They did not win MGI 2015. As a matter of fact, they were not even among the Top 20 quarter-finalists. However, they left their mark in pageant history, we risk to say, after being noticed for different reasons. Miss Tonga won GB’s special award “Woman of Substance” for the fantastic human being that she is. If her type of beauty is not the usual doll-like to succeed in pageants, she showed that beauty truly goes beyond it. Miss Tonga is smart, charismatic, confident. By the end of the competition, she had thousands of faithful followers and supporters.
Also on a league of her own, Miss Macedonia delighted all of us with her unique and unforgettable diva performance in swimsuit and evening gown in the preliminary competition. When covering the preliminary round of interviews, we saw Miss Macedonia being asked the following question: “What do you want to be 5 years from now?”, to which she answered: “I don’t want to be. I AM… Beauty has always been in my family, I’ve won many trophies and awards, so I AM now…”. Indeed YOU ARE! Thank you Misses Tonga and Macedonia for making this year’s MGI even more special!
