JAMAICA’S  TONI-ANN SINGH IS MISS WORLD 2019

Miss World 2019 Toni-Ann Singh takes in the moment after being crowned. France was second and India, third.

LONDON, England, December 14, 2019 – Twenty-three-year old Jamaican Toni-Ann Singh is the Miss World 2019. The St Thomas native radiated with charm and purpose as she glided across the Excel Arena stage in London, England.

It’s a repeat of the 1976 feat when Cindy Breakspeare was crowned Miss World in the British capital.

For her first moments on the international stage, Singh offered an inarguably cultural presentation, free of controversy, with a seamless merger of charm, historical homage and contemporary flair.

Dressed in a bandana-inspired costume, Singh introduced herself to the world with the island’s 2019 anthem, Toast by reggae music’s 19-year-old global sensation, Koffee.

But toeing the line of acceptability was not enough for the aspiring doctor to bring the blue Miss World crown home. See full story in Jamaica Gleaner at http://jamaica-gleaner.com/article/lead-stories/20191214/jamaicas-toni-ann-singh-miss-world-2019
