Miss Grand International 2017: Global Beauties First Leaderboard

After more than two weeks of watching the girls up close and from afar, our panel of judges have cast their votes and we are ready to share our first leaderboard with you. Of course, it's not all over yet. This Monday, we will watch the preliminary competition and bring you all our thoughts and opinions after that. We will announce our final leaderboard on Wednesday the 25th. And now, we present to you Global Beauties first leaderboard for Miss Grand International 2017: 

Leading the way at the moment is Venezuela, who has been doing everything right in the competition. She reminds us of the good old days of pageantry in Venezuela and we think she is currently the one to beat. Hot on her heals is Peru. Following her sizzling performance in the swimsuit competition, she has been getting major buzz. Jamaica is currently in third place, for us, and we think she is just absolutely beautiful and statuesque. The lovely Miss Netherlands, one of our best surprises, of the pageant is currently in our fourth spot. Not only is she extremely beautiful, but her kindness radiates through her eyes and smile. Rounding out the top 5 at the moment is the host contestant, Vietnam, who is very popular here and is bombarded with requests for photos and selfies wherever she goes. 

Special thanks to our judges from the Philippines, Brazil, Panama, Chile, Vietnam, South Africa and Thailand!
