Harry who is a nurse at the West Demerara Regional Hospital (WDRH) and of Utivlugt, West Coast Demerara (WCD) also copped the awards for best talent and best fantasy wear.
However, Aliya Wong sponsored by Miss Sleepy Trading was adjudged the first runner-up at the pageant that showcased physical beauty, talent, grace, poise, and intelligence followed by Shequana Holder, Miss Hard Rock Café as the 2nd runner-up.
Prior to the pageant, Harry told the Guyana Times that she would use her confidence as an advantage on pageant night, and without a doubt, she rocked the stage. Her fantasy wear, designed by Guyanese designer, Randy Madray was captivating to the eyes of the packed to-capacity audience and the judges.
The specular piece comprised the most vibrant hues of slithering red, with tinges of fiery orange, yellow, and black titled ‘Coils of Guyana”.
The stunning beauty did justice to the piece that celebrates the unmatched beauty of our snakes as a symbol of economic transformation. The long-sleeved ensemble displays a 3D rhinestone snake on my tall curvaceous body, complemented by jewels of the Rain Forest, home of the Giants.
After the pageant, she praised Madray for the piece while adding that he went over and beyond to create a masterpiece that wow everyone who was at the pageant.
It is worth noting that Harry stumbled on stage during the quarter-final competition at the Marriott Parking Lot. She went on to be selected as the top nine vying for the title and ultimately the crown. This, however, did not come easy since she had to balance work and rehearsals.
“I know how hard I have been working for this… I have been pushing by working hard and it entailed sleepless nights. All the cries, sweat, and tears paid off… I am forever thankful to my sponsor, AJM Enterprises.”
The newly crowned queen was confident of winning the pageant after she responded to her final question about Guyana. I simply stated where Guyana was located and what it is famous for… Obviously, we are located in South America and we are famous for producing oil… that is what actually put us on the world map.”
Without a doubt, she captivated the crowd with her personality and stage presence. She won herself a new car and other prizes while the 1st runner-up walked away with $500,000 and the 2nd runner-up copped $250,000.
