And The Winner is............

Good night to everyone. Hope your weekend was good..Mine wasnt so nice but anyway onto tonight's topic.
Now unless you were living under a rock for the past two or three weeks you would have known that last night was the much anticipated 1st annual MISS SVGCC TEEN HERITAGE pageant and I must say after all the hype it did not disappoint.
The night started off much too late for my liking but once the ball got rolling everything flowed smoothly. The contestants came out for their introductory appearance and it was clear that the audience had their favourites, one particular contestant's posse even went as far as to make signs in support of her. This did not go unnoticed by the audience or said contestant I'm sure.
The ambassadorial speeches were well delivered, there was an old GHS girl, a skeletal Earl Kirby, even parnell campbell..it was absolutely wonderful.
There were highs and lows in the talent portion. Shavsha did a wonderful rendition of mama culture by anita franklyn. Ronika's talent was not as memorable. She did a monologue but sad to say its not much too mention.
Shanice however delivered a powerful speech of what it is to be a woman and she did nothing but stand in one spot on the stage yet she captivated the audience.
Austinsha also did a dramatization as a dying culture. I thought it was very clever that she used the death announcement from NBC radio as a part of her act but there was not much substance other wise.
Ashee, had that crowd from the moment she stepped on stage dressed as an old man. "Grandpa Ole Foot". Her performance was very comedic and she used many slangs that teens use. The crowd was roaring from laughter and she still managed to highlight history of the leaders of the past that made this country great.
The cultural wear/evening gown section saw some beautifully made dresses. My personal favourites were Ashee's and Shavsha's. Austinsha's fit very nicely also but I think the design could have been better but thats just my personal opinion. The concept of Ronika's dress was good but the actual outfit was not flattering at all. The huge fake flowers did nothing to accentuate her body but i think she tried her hardest to pull it off. Shanice had a lovely concept also but i think it could have fit nicer.
The interviews were overall quite well done, a few stumbles here and there but nothing as terrible as "Miss Global Warming".You all know who i'm talking about.
Before i get to the results, let me mention the guest artistes and there were many. We had Luta,Tabia and Skarpyon perform and although they were a bit long, they still had the crowd going. A job well done by the models and dancers and the PAS drama.
