Miss Jamaica Universe

Miss Jamaica Universe 2010, Yendi Phillipps, who made Jamaica proud last month by placing second in the Miss Universe 2010 pageant at the Mandalay Bay in Las Vegas, is featured on the cover of the latest issue of Buzzz Magazine. This issue also has an extensive feature on Yendi, looking at ‘success secrets, marriage, babies, family and more.’

BUZZZ Magazine is a bi-monthly magazine that focuses on entertainment, fashion, music and lifestyle topics for Caribbean people at home and abroad. It is available at book stores, pharmacies and other outlets islandwide.


It was a nail-biting finish at the Miss Universe 2010 pageant at the Mandalay Bay in Las Vegas earlier this evening, as Jamaica’s very own, Yendi Phillipps, put the controversy that dogged her Miss Jamaica Universe crowning behind her, and placed 2nd to Miss Mexico, Jimena Navarrete.

Phillipps did well throughout, being front and centre in the dance routine that kicked off the live broadcast on NBC-TV. She polled the most points in the swimsuit contest, and second-most in the evening gown section. She also handled herself very well in the interview section, where she was asked a tough question about capital punishment.

In the end, Yendi Phillipps made herself and all Jamaica proud, as she was named the 1st runner up in the 2010 Miss Universe 2010 pageant. Congratulations and kudos to her!
