Miss World 2013 Megan Young with Julia Morley (middle) and Dr. Ben Friedricks in Haiti last March, 2014
Below are quotes from the last interview (reporter unnamed in the MW website) Megan Young gave as the reigning Miss World. I took the liberty of sharing three of the more memorable answers she gave in the same.
You can read the full text of the said interview HERE.
Megan, you have been an amazing Miss World and a true representative of Beauty with a Purpose, what has been the highlight of your year as Miss World?
“The highlights of my year as Miss World can be narrowed down to two things. From a Beauty with a Purpose perspective, it would have to be helping out with the Typhoon relief in the Philippines. I was able to help out my countrymen in ways I never thought possible, because of my Miss World title.”
What is one trait you would like the next Miss World to possess?
“I hope that the next Miss World, whoever she is, is genuine. It is a competition but her authenticity is what will win the judges over and carry her throughout her reign. The work that a Miss World does is not just about the beauty and the glamour but a lot of it is really behind the scenes and about getting your feet dirty without your heels and without the make up.”
Back-to-back with Valerie Weigmann or not, Megan will give her full support to the next Miss World.
What do you think will be the hardest thing to say goodbye to as your reign comes to an end?
“I think the hardest thing to say goodbye to will have to be the fame I have now as Miss World. Going to events around the world and being recognized as Miss World- there is something very sentimental about it, and I am certainly going to miss that.”
