Miss Mashramani Queen Pageant 2015

Simpli Royal is pleased to announce that the Miss Mashramani Queen Pageant is here once more after a period of absence. This pageant will serve as an excellent showcase of Guyana’s cultural diversity, multiplicity of talent and aesthetic value in the context of our peoples.

Under the theme “One People, One Culture, One Celebration”, the organisers say they intend to showcase a seven-week reality series capturing the preparation and promotional aspects of the show and things Guyanese, making it a production that punctuates the uniqueness of Mashramani.

The Miss Guyana Mashramani Queen Pageant is billed for February 14, 2015 at the National Cultural Centre and the Mash Queen International is billed for February 22, 2015.

The segments include a sizzling national dress performance where each delegate will showcase her costume concept which will be on a topic of relevance and interest culturally.

The swimsuit segment will emphasise a healthy, attractive feminine figure for the delegate’s body type and top scores would be awarded for confidence, personality and stage presence — this too must be a showcase of things Guyanese.

Next is the individual talent competition which sees each delegate doing a four minute presentation in song, dance and drama or playing of an instrument or a combination of these.

Again, a Guyanese theme will be incorporated and they will be judged on execution, originality, creativity and entertainment factor. Evening elegance is next and is the most glamorous portion of the pageant and will attract scores based on elegance, carriage, poise and stage presence.

Each delegate will be interviewed live on pageant night, giving all of the delegates the opportunity to make a positive impression and to test her communication skills.

She must convey passion and her thoughts and ideas.

Eligible delegates must be between the ages of 18 and 25, never been married, never given birth, born female, good moral character, have not engaged in conduct unbecoming to the Miss Mashramani Queen Pageant, have not been convicted of any crime, and must be familiar with our culture as Guyanese.

During the upcoming weeks, Simpli Royal will be accepting applications and seeking collaboration with the business community to make the pageant a partnership that would be cherished and preserved for the life of the pageant and beyond. It would serve as a marketing tool which will highlight the unique heritage of Guyana, helping to carve our cultural branding, both at home and abroad.
