It was hardly a surprise to most, when it was announced last night that Yendi Phillips was Miss Jamaica Universe 2010. The 24 year old, 5′ 10″ tall former Miss Jamaica, was a clear stand out from long before the grand coronation show last night at the Chinese Benevolent Society in Kingston. She has now done what only two other Jamaican beauty queens (Sandra Foster and Christine Straw) have managed to do – copping both the Miss Jamaica Universe and Miss Jamaica titles. During the coronation show last night, Phillips also copped the prize for ‘Most Aware’.
Here are the official Miss Jamaica Universe 2010 results:
1st place – Yendi Phillips
2nd place – Chantel Davis
3rd place – Shari-Dee Barker
4th place – Phillipa Hogarth
5th place – Michelle Daley

Congrats to Yendi. You have “IT” to win the Miss Universe title.
However, two tips: please do not speak carelessly and resort to slang during the interviews for the international contest. This I believe was your major downfall in the Miss World contest.
And, for heaven sakes, do let them give you a decent gown and not one of those awfully cheap Uzuri (or whatever it’s called) “rags”!!!!
