Miss World

The Miss World pageant is the oldest surviving major international beauty pageant. It was created in the United Kingdom by Eric Morley in 1951. Since his death in 2000, Morley's widow, Julia Morley, has co-chaired the pageant. Alongside with its rival, the Miss Universe and Miss Earth contests, Miss World pageant is one of the three most publicised beauty contests in the world.

The current Miss World is Mireia Lalaguna of Spain who was crowned on 19 December 2015 in Sanya, China PR.

20th century

In 1951, Eric Morley organised a bikini contest as part of the Festival of Britain celebrations which he called the Festival Bikini Contest. The event was popular with the press, and was dubbed "Miss World" by the media. The swimsuit competition was intended as a promotion for the bikini which had only recently been introduced onto the market, and which was still widely regarded as immodest. When the 1951 Miss World pageant winner, Kerstin "Kiki" Hakansson from Sweden, was crowned in a bikini, it added to the controversy.

    This time
    I know it's gonna be for real
    This time
    I know it's gonna be for real
    Full stand still
    I miss the chemistry of your kiss
    This time
    I know it's gonna be for real
    Full stand still

    And it's for real
    Oh full stand still
    Alone
    And it's for real
    I feel so totally happy, and it's all so real
    I could surf the earth on a banana peel
    I'm so totally into this
    The chemistry of your kiss
    The way you lose yourself at night
    The way you look in the morning light
    You're so pretty
    Makes me wanna burn this city down
    I walk the streets with a frown
    The size of a playground merry-go-round
    This time (this time)
    I know it's gonna be for real
    You are Miss World
    I miss
    The chemistry of your kiss
    Full stand still
    Alone
    And it's for real
    Ah full stand still
    This time
    I know it's gonna be for real
    Full stand still
    Alone
    And it's for real
    I feel so totally happy, and it's all so real
    I could surf the earth on a banana peel
    I'm so totally into this
    The chemistry of your kiss
    The way you lose yourself at night
    The way you look in the morning light
    You're so pretty
    Makes me wanna burn this city down
    I walk the streets with a frown
    The size of a playground merry-go-round
    This time (this time)
    I know it's gonna be for real
    You are Miss World
    I miss
    The chemistry of your kiss
    Alone...
    The chemistry of your kiss
    You are Miss World
    I miss
