No more reality TV; this year Miss Jamzone Guyana returns to “its roots as a beach oriented pageant,” organisers say and it is billed for HJ Water World, Providence on July 5.
The event will see Radiante Frank, Cardella Hamilton, Eksi Edwards, Treasure James, Carlene Waithe and Onica Rose contesting for the crown and the opportunity to represent Guyana in the international leg of the Miss Jamzone Pageant, which is usually held in August.
HJ Entertainment introduced the contestants via a press release issued on Thursday.
