Miss World 2008 : Curtain raiser
More than 100 international beauties are primping and preening in the final anxious moments before the Miss World pageant begins tonight. The event this time is 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 participating in the FIFA Confederation Cup, taking place in South Africa in June as a warm-up for the 2010 World Cup, also joined in the draw for their teams.
The event, which begins at 2030 hours (IST), has a special focus on song, dance and music, and includes a high-tech twist with an online competition where viewers can vote for their favourite beauty.
The winner of the online vote will go directly to the semi-final round, where Miss Barbados, Miss Mexico, Miss Russia and Miss Iceland have already secured spots by winning special competitions in the run-up to the big show.
An international jury will decide on the next Miss World, who will succeed China's Zhang Zi Lin, who was crowned last year when the pageant was held in her home country.
