The next decade....what's in store?
Musings of a yamfooted traveller still trying to shake off those last 20 pounds as she treks across the Caribbean
I just went on the internet and saw that Terri Karelle Griffith placed in the top 15 out of 105 contestants. She was one of two chosen from the Caribbean region. The other was Miss Puerto Rico who went on to win the MIss World Caribbean crown. There was another Caribbean beauty in the top 15 - Miss US Virgin Islands who got a fast track into the final 15 by winning the talent competition.
See......I told y'all, Miss Griffith was going to make her mark. Coming in the top 15% is no easy feat for a real black beauty, when beauty seems more and more to be defined by the European standard.
Go dey Terri Karelle! I'm sorry I wasn't able to see it on TV.

Can't see why they think beauty is this european look when the obvious beauty is an exotic black woman, especially caribbean woman.
