Spanish entrant wins Miss World contest in China
Print Edition
SPAIN’S Lalaguna Royo has been named Miss World 2015 after winning the title in Sanya on the island province of Hainan in South China.
Sofia Nikitchuk of Russia was the runner-up and Indonesia’s Maria Harfanti took third place in the Saturday night final following a lengthy competition featuring 114 women.
Each had won the right to represent their country in a series of local and regional competitions.
The victory marked the first ever win for a Spanish contestant.
“I think this is a good decision, because Miss World is not looking for our body, they are looking for a soul,” said Lalaguna, a 23-year-old model from Barcelona with a degree in pharmacology who plans to pursue a master’s degree in nutrition.
She placed first in the competition’s top model contest and appeared to impress the judges with her public speaking.
“I think it’s important that they don’t want to see only our bodies, they are looking for moral things,” she said.
China has hosted the competition seven times, starting in 2003.
