Do You Know Who Is Miss World To Be Crowned?


JOHANNESBURG (AFP) - - More than 100 international beauties were primping and preening in the final anxious moments before the Miss World pageant Saturday, hosted by South Africa for an expected one billion-strong TV audience.

South African and Jamaican designers have created racks of dresses for the women, aged 17 to 25, who have spent a gruelling month in galas, rehearsals and even a safari on the tip of the African continent.

Contestants from the eight countries in the FIFA Confederations Cup, which takes place in South Africa in June as a warm-up for the 2010 World Cup, also joined in the draw for their teams.
