I attended the show and it was judged fairly. Ayana had no competition. For young girls between 16- 20 i feel dam good. These young girls need to take pride in their bodies and their parents should teach them the value of life and not encourage them to enter shows for scholar ships. It's the... more

Note to Pass Forty.....I agree with your comment to some extent but this show is Government sponsored. Each contestant was given $1,000.00, which in my opinion, is sufficient and if spent wisely, that parent would have had to contribute anything.

I think this was a fair show. This young lady was outstanding in every segment. Her points must have a big margin from the other girls. The show was way too long and boring tho not me next time.

Question
Miss BVI 2011 came out of St. Thomas now Miss East End/Long Look comes out of St. Thomas again! Isn't the reason these young ladies enter into the shows is to win the scholarship to further their education? If this is the case why is the BVI allowing young ladies to come in from St.... more

Contestant #4 got exactly the placement she deserved...1st runner up. The show was fair. I have never met any of the girls and so I can be objective. #4's evening wear was beautiful, but she did not carry the dress well... There was room for improvement in the way she walked and in her... more
