Miss St. Lucia Aiasha Gustave is getting stronger as Miss World 2010 bet

From #8 on the previous list, Miss St. Lucia Aiasha Tierra Rebecca Gustave is now ranked 3rd on Mykiru's 3rd list of favorites for Miss
World 2010. Is she the next on top?

The 18-year-old student who is of British-Guyanese mixture is among
those candidates who have sustained their momentum ever since they land on China 2 weeks ago.

Aiasha's chance of winning the first Miss World title for her country is also getting stronger especially after she was chosen as one of the 10 speakers in the Shanghai Forum and after being included in the Top 40 Beach Beauty semi-finalists.

Expect Miss St. Lucia to perform so well in the Beach Beauty finals and also in the Top Model and Talent Fast-Track events.

Miss Venezuela Adriana Vasini leads list of favorites for Miss World 2010

Miss Venezuela Adriana Vasini tops Mykiru's first list of favorites for the Miss World 2010 title.

Adriana is a 22-year-old model and a student of Medicine in Venezuela. She was also the Reina Hispanoamericana 2009 titleholder.

And since it's only the 1st list of favorites, expect more changes on future lists since the "fast track" competitions haven't started yet.
But expect Miss Venezuela to rock the Beach Beauty finals.

Here's a video of Adriana and watch how he presented herself in the swimsuit round of Miss Venezuela 2009:
