HA NOI –
The pageant, which will run from July 20 to August 18, will be held in Shanghai, Hong Kong, Sanya and Ordos.
My said she was participating in seven subordinate categories – Top Fitness/Sport, Miss Talent, Miss Dance of the World, Beauty with a Purpose, Beach Beauty, Miss World Fashion and Miss World Website Presentation.
My said she spends two hours a day practising gymnastics, swimming and mixed martial arts.
Meanwhile, singer Thao Trang is helping My prepare for the Miss Talent event, where she will be singing I've Never Been to Me by Kenneth William Hirsch and Ron Miller, while playing the piano.
My, 24, will also perform a traditional dance with a magic crossbow for the Miss Dance of the World competition.
My said she felt confident participating in the Miss World Website Presentation because she is a student of multimedia design at RMIT International University in HCM City.
My represented Viet Nam at Miss Universe 2011 in Brazil, but failed to make it into the final round. However, pundits have said she is the most outstanding Vietnamese contestant at the moment, particularly as she is fluent in English and has a number of years' experience competing in beauty contests.
My received a letter of invitation from the Miss World Organisation on June 27. – VNS
