Miss Belize represents at Miss Universe

by Tony Rath....

Arrived Manila 4am. By 10am had my press pass but no way to photograph our Miss Belize. Closest I could get was about 100m thru hundreds of police, military and private security. The MOU pwople were kind enough to extend an invitation to the National Gift Auction gala, and Bex absolutely shined during the fashion show. You know there are 86 beautiful women in the Miss Universe Competition, what the judges are looking for is anyones guess. Bex is making Belize stand out at the least, and if the judges are looking for an authentic, friendly, confident woman, the we have a good chance. Remeber to vote for Miss Belize!

Miss Belize Placed 9th On Glam Shot

For several days we've been showing you highlights of Rebecca Rath's journey to the Miss Universe crown in Manila, Philippines. Since her arrival in Manila, Rath along with eighty nine other contestants have been participating in a number of activities leading up to the pageant scheduled for this Sunday.

Rath who has undoubtedly won over the hearts of all Belizeans, has been putting our tiny tropical Paradise in the Pageantry map with her undeniable charm, beauty and self-confidence. The latest demonstration to Rath's growing international popularity was seen today as she was given special mention on the popular Pageantry website: Missosology as being among contestants with the best Glam shots of the 65th Miss Universe Pageant.

Of the eighty nine contestants 15 were selected as the very best who gave the most memorable and breathtaking shots. Rath was placed ninth with this gorgeous shot which highlights her natural beauty.

While this ranking only serves to validate Rath's growing popularity and has no weight on the actual placement of contestants in the pageant on Sunday, Belizeans have the opportunity to ensure that our beauty queen makes it to the top by voting for her in the following ways:

First, you can vote on the Miss Universe website which can be found at vote.missuniverse.com, secondly, you can download the Miss U app found on Google Play Store or the Apple app store then register and vote. Thirdly, you can also download the VODI app and log in with your phone number in order to cast your vote. Lastly you can vote through a registered twitter account by using #Missuniverse #Belize and by sharing other tweets that have the above mentioned hashtags.

Individuals are allowed to vote ten times per day in each of the options mentioned and all Belizeans are encouraged to show support and vote.

Video: Miss Belize Universe was LIVE on Miss Universe Fanatic!!! Here's that video....



I was in the rehersal hall with 90 of the most beautiful women in the world. Being a photographer who has photographed beautiful women my whole career, you would think I 'd be like a baby in a candy store. Yet I left that practice realizing that I only saw one face the whole time, Miss Belize; the other girls were just the faceless crowd.

Miss Universe competition 2017
From swimsuits to evening gowns and everything in between, here are some must-see moments from the 65th Miss Universe competition preliminaries. The pageant aired live on FOX Sunday, Jan. 29, 2017 from the Philippines.

Miss France's journey to Miss Universe crown
Iris Mittenaere of France was crowned the 65th Miss Universe on Monday in Manila, beating other heavily favored candidates to win the prestigious beauty title. Mittenaere participated in prepageant activities throughout the Philippines and hurdled preliminary long gown and swimsuit competitions, interviews, and the national costume show. She succeeded the host country's Pia Alonzo Wurtzbach. Here's a look back at the newly crowned Miss Universe's journey to her coronation. All photos are from the Miss Universe Organization.

As I step on to that stage in a few hours and they announce the top 13 finalists, I just want to let you all know that I left my heart on that stage at preliminaries and that I am a better person than I was before September 10th. No matter what happens, I truly learnt so much from this experience. I used to think miss universe was about prancing on stage with a pretty face and a nice body, but it honestly is so much more. I have met some of the most amazing women that are different colors, from different countries, cultures, and religions, and EVERYDAY they wake up, shape up and go out and get to work to win this title. It is a competition but these women are here together and in one place supporting each other. This has been a life changing experience for me. I feel so honored to be a Belizean and to be wearing this sash! You all honestly keep me going and make me feel like I already won. BELIZE I LOVE YOU AND I AM DOING THIS FOR YOU! LETS GET IT! BELIIIIIZZZZEEEEEEE!!

Miss Belize Universe Speaks Before Final Cut on Sunday



There are no words to describe how I feel right now. Being able to wear this sash on the world stage was an incredible experience. I might not have walked away with the crown, but I met some phenomenal women and experienced a world I once knew nothing about. Belize, thank you all so much for your support. I hope I made you all proud. Miss France is such a sweet woman and I believe she deserved that crown as did all the women in the top 13 deserved to place. Miss Universe is a competition with judges and they chose her for good reasons - She is beautiful, intelligent, kind and confident. Thank you Belize for giving me this opportunity and for the tremendous online support! Everyone of the messages, comments, "likes" and votes energized me throughout the competition. I did my very best to represent Belize and though it hurt not to do better, I have no regrets.

Now I will take a few days off to recuperate and enjoy the Filipino hospitality before returning to my beloved Belize to fulfill the remainder of my time as your Miss Belize. With much love - your Bex
