NASSAU, BAHAMAS — Representative from the Office of the Spouse Ann Marie Davis joined former Miss Bahamas pageant winners in paying tribute and offering congratulations to Miss Bahamas Universe, Chantel O’Brian, at Cafe Channing Noelle on Friday in an evening dubbed “A Night with the Queens”.
The consensus during the tributes was that O’Brian, winner of the Spirit of Carnival award at the recent Miss Universe pageant held in Israel, had shattered an important glass ceiling that will change the way small countries like The Bahamas are viewed in international beauty pageants going forward.
Davis told the queens gathered that she will use her office to showcase local pageantry and the quality of queens The Bahamas has produced.
She also encouraged corporate Bahamas to be more supportive of local beauty pageants.
Among the past queens in attendance and paying tributes were Fontella Chipman, Richa Sands and Nakera Symonette.
