Martine Andraos Miss Lebanon 2009
Lebanon treats its pageant royalty very well, indeed.
The winner receives more than $500,000 and can not only compete in the Miss Universe pageant, but the Miss World pageants, as well.
This year’s winner is Martine Andrawos.
Upon her victory announcement on Friday, there were fireworks, shouts and overall pride in Lebanon’s new miss.
The new lovely beauty queen Martine will represent her country at the Miss Universe 2009 dan Miss World 2009 Contest in Johannesburg, South Africa on December.
Out of 16 girls, Martine Andraos, 18, won the Miss Lebanon 2009 title at one of the most anticipated events of the year. Hosted by Malik Maktabi and sponsored by the Lebanese Broadcasting Channel, the event featured two of Lebanon’s best singers Nancy Ajram and Wael Kfoury. Both looked fabulous and sang their latest hits.
Nine judges of different fields worked with a grading scale for each girl in terms of bathing suit wear, night wear and questions from the judges to decided on the final five. Judges included the Lebanese director and actress Nadine Labaki and plastic surgeon specialist Nader Saab.
The final question for the final five was, let’s test our pageant skills,’ what does the cedar of Lebanon mean to you?’ The judges were impressed by Andraos’s answer which sealed the deal and gave her the winning points.
Andraos’s mission will revolve around a natural resource and that is water and her message will be centered on preserving such a resource.
Congrats Martine! Make us proud!
