are you the next Miss Universe Jamaica?

I really do like pageants...and I honestly believe that for a young woman, pageants can teach you a lot about yourself and present you with the excellent opportunity to represent your country at an international level.

Of course there is also the fact that throughout the competition (and your reign if you win) you get the chance to meet amazing people who can help you to achieve other goals you may have for your life.

So!

If you're a beautiful Jamaican young woman between the ages of 18 and 27; you have confidence, grace and a great personality; and you wish to have a great pageant experience....then you need to check out what's going on with Miss Universe Jamaica 2012.

Check out the website (http://www.missuniversejamaica.com/) for information on the three casting across the island as well as more info on the plans and ideas for this year's competition.You can also keep up with their Facebook (https://www.facebook.com/pages/Miss-Universe-Jamaica/148487865264121) for up to the minute updates.

For more info you can also check out my TEENage Observer interview that was done with the team. I asked them about the new team, the plans for 2012, what they will be looking for in this year's winner and of course for info on the prizes that the lucky winner can hope for.

If you dream of being an ambassador for your country or for a cause that you really believe in.....then this may just be the thing for you.

You really have nothing to lose!
