Zi Lin Zhang A Chinese Miss World Contestant, a stunning 23-year-old business administration graduate from the People’s Republic of China, bested 105 other global beauties to win the 57th annual Miss World contest. Zhang’s victory makes history in more ways than one. She is now the first international Grand Slam titleholder from her country, and more importantly, the first Asian woman NOT from India to capture the elusive Miss World title. 1st Runner-Up is Angola’s Micaela Reis, a Miss Universe 2007 semi-finalist who overcame the odds and outdid her previous placing, while 2nd Runner-Up is Mexico’s Carolina Moran Gordillo, whose elegance and quiet competitiveness placed her high in the Beach Beauty and Top Model events prior to the finals.
Rounding up the five finalists are Trinidad and Tobago’s Valene Maharaj and a surprise finish from Sweden’s Annie Oliv. It is interesting to note that although the Continental Queens of Beauty weren’t announced this year, the top five was still diversely represented by five different regions: Asia, Africa, Americas, Europe and the Caribbean.
