We have been working hard and for many hours every day, but everything is fine and worth it. It’s worth the effort. Security is tight.” THE FAVORITES… “Everyone says that Miss Philippines is a sure winner of the pageant, which would not make me unhappy. However, I prefer to see Miss Costa Rica winning. She is incredibly flashy, however, she is not a diva I like it a lot. The semi-finalists from Northern Europe will be Switzerland and England.” YOUR OWN CHANCES… “I have no chance of winning this. They have 10 boxes of designer dresses, hair extensions and most have been surgically enhanced. NATURAL IS GOOD… “I am so surprised to say that my little me made it to the top 5 in the Beach Beauty Contest, completely without silicone or any kind of surgical enhancement! Miss Russia was the winner with her perfect body and 180 cm tall. Tomorrow I have to get up at six, so it’s time to close my eyes.” GETTING READY FOR TONIGHT… “The day has come, tonight a new Miss World will be crowned and I’m part of it. It’s hard to believe that everything is happening. I hope I can make my country proud by presenting myself well. I don’t think I can win and I hope the Icelanders don’t expect my victory”. “The girls think that if Miss Philippines doesn’t win, Miss Russia will, after all, there is talk of Miss World being held in Russia next year. My personal favorite is Miss Mexico. I got close to her in the last few days and I think she is the best combination of beauty, intelligence and personality. I am happy with the visibility that my country and I have obtained in the international press in the last four weeks.” Iceland’s Prime Minister Halldor Asgrimsson joined 10,000 people who braved snow and icy gales to greet Miss World 2005, Unnur Birna Vilhjalmsdottir, as she brought the crown to Iceland on Sunday, December 18. As she was cheered and congratulated, she said, “This is amazing, unbelievable. In Iceland, people don’t usually do this, so I’m really touched that people took the time to come and welcome me home.” Unnur Birna received warm congratulations from her two predecessors, Hófi Karlsdóttir (1985) and Linda Pétursdóttir (1988), who welcomed the new Miss World to their exclusive club. BIOGRAPHY OF UNNUR BIRNA VILHJALMSDÓTTIR.- Unnur Birna Vilhjálmsdóttir was born in Hringbraut hospital in Iceland’s capital, Reykjavík, on May 25, 1984, but grew up in a small town called Seltjarnarnes near the capital. Her mother, Unnur Steinsson, was Miss Iceland 1983 and is said to have competed in Miss World 1983 in London while being three months pregnant with Unnur Birna. Her father is Vilhjálmur Skúlason and she has three brothers, Steinar Torfi (1986), Vilhjálmur Skúli Vilhjálmsson (1992) and Helga Sóley Ásgeirsdóttir (2007). She was president of the university social club, was a professional dancer, and taught dance at the Birna Björnsdóttir dance school. She enjoyed acting, singing, dancing, snowboarding, hiking, camping, horseback riding, and had a special talent for choreography and playing the piano. Unnur Birna, or UB as her loved ones called her, interned as a policewoman at the local airport during her summer vacation while studying anthropology and pursuing a law degree. Her mother divorced and remarried, and she lived with her mother and stepfather, Ásgeir Jón Ásgeirsson. Unnur Birna had a three-year romantic relationship with soccer player Ólafur Ingi Skúlason. She entered the world of beauty pageants to honor the memory of her grandmother, Jórunn Karlsdóttir, who passed away in late 2004. She first competed in and won the Miss Reykjavík pageant held on Friday, April 15, 2005, then she won Miss Iceland on Friday, May 20, and finally Miss World in Sanya, China, on Saturday, December 10 of that same year. Her reign has been the second shortest in the history of Miss World, with 294 days, only surpassed by that of the Venezuelan Ivian Sarcos, winner in 2011, who reigned for 286 days. In 2012, after graduating as a lawyer, she started working as a district court advocate at the Icelandic law firm. On July 26, 2014, Unnur married her longtime partner, Pétur Rúnar Heimisson, the same age as her. They have four children, two girls and two boys: Lilja Karitas (2007, stepdaughter), Erla Rún (2011), Pétur Björn (2014), and Kári Björn (2020).

La mamá de Miss Islandia también participó en Miss Mundo y fue top 7. De hecho al competir estaba embarazada: quien estaba en ese vientre estaba destinada a ser Miss Mundo en 2005
cuando en mi país Perú se deje de elegir "a dedo" o sea por ser la amiguita, conocida o familiar de alguien influyente o realmente se convoque a chicas de todo el Perú tendremos más seguido a una reina de belleza con título mundial, no les parecerá importante pero si lo es, se le hace promoción al país, todo el mundo voltea a mirar al país ganador.
Soy peruana pero QUÉ TAL ROBO LE HICIERON A PUERTO RICO!! Esa niña debió ser coronada en una.. En fin, Morley SIEMPRE preferiere a varias antes que a una latina. Si le robaba a nuestra Maju (Miss Mundo 2004) ya iba a ser demasiado descarado!

Wow. Interesante, afortunadamente a la mamá de Unnur no le retiraron la corona de Miss Islandia
Tambien compitio en Miss Universo 1983
I love Miss Iceland, she's beautiful!

Hermosa Puerto Rico, saludos de Perú.
A mi me encantó esta chica... Es tan dulce, tan ingenua... Se ve tan angelical. Tiene algo que la hace brillar... Inocencia tal vez...
Por un momento me olvide del concurso y no podia dejar de ver al presentador tan guapo ese♡♡♡

Que hermosa Miss México.
ME HUBIERA GUSTADO QUÉ MI MAJU MANTILLA CORONE A PUERTO RICO ERA LA INDICADA MUY BELLA
Para mi debió ser coronada como miss word 2005, miss México
The winner was beautiful, but I believe that Tanzania should have won.
I was rooting for Italy in the top 6. One of the best Continental top 6/5 ever.
The last remaining original Beauty pageant ! up to the present!!
Absolutely.
kudos Nancy Sumary
Hande subaşı kostüm güzelı seçılmıstı
La chica de Iceland era muy bella.
la italiana hermosa!! solo con 17 años
Mejor Maju se hubiera quedado con la corona -.-!
Isn't she the cutest.....my childhood crush....
HERMOSAAAA LA GANADORA!!! Nose que dicen
cuando en mi país Perú se deje de elegir "a dedo" o sea por ser la amiguita, conocida o familiar de alguien influyente o realmente se convoque a chicas de todo el Perú tendremos más seguido a una reina de belleza con título mundial, no les parecerá importante pero si lo es, se le hace promoción al país, todo el mundo voltea a mirar al país ganador.
Es verdad. Recuerdo que al otro día del Miss Mundo, Maju Mantilla salió en la portada de un periódico de mi estado (Yucatán).
Soy peruana pero QUÉ TAL ROBO LE HICIERON A PUERTO RICO!! Esa niña debió ser coronada en una.. En fin, Morley SIEMPRE preferiere a varias antes que a una latina. Si le robaba a nuestra Maju (Miss Mundo 2004) ya iba a ser demasiado descarado!
Dowiita asi es ella o la Italiana
The second runner up should’ve won. Puerto Rico was stunning, and those eyes!! The winner was beautiful too.
Es super hermosa y su dulzura lo mejor
Mexico y Puerto Rico. 😘
Miss México es la más Hermosa y bonita y inteligente.
You did us proud Nancy. Hoping and hoping Queen Elizabeth will do us the same. 🇹🇿🇹🇿🇹🇿
Exactly.......!!!! we pray for Queen
miss mundo le da la corona a la mas bella y que reune condiciones no al pais que le da mas rating al concurso como miss universo.
El Miss mundo perdió su esencia despues que murio el dueño y dejaron julia morley; cuando la tenia el marido el eligia a la mas bella y preparada
@@siuled2007 Erick Morley también eligio chicas con belleza no tan occidentales esa es la esencia del Miss Mundo
Feiciddes Angela Bonilla por dejar el nombre Ecuador bien alto viva Ecuador
Unnur Birma Vilyamsdottir, Miss Iceland (Ungfru Island), Miss World 2005. Congratulations!
Why so much hatred??? She's definitely one of the most beautiful miss worlds ever
puerto rico muy linda
Soy de Venezuela. Primera vez que veo un vestido tan feo de una ganadora de Miss Mundo. De verdad que el descaro de Julia Morley hacia las Mexicanas es Evidente. Mexico a enviado excelente candidatas a ese concursos que resaltan por su bellezas. Deberian de tener su Primera miss Mundo desde hace tiempo.
Ms2015 El vestido de la venezolana que ganó en 2011 es horrible
Ya no te quejes,ya ganaron este año.
Por fin la tuvo amigo 2018 gracias!!!!1
No es el vestido lo que se evalua. Tampoco se evalua por lo que sólo ves la noche final.
México al fin le hizo justicia en 2018 vanessa Ponce de leon,después de 3 1as finalistas en 2005,2009 y 2017.
POR ALGO ES EL MISS WORLD BUSCA BELLEZA CON PROPÓSITO Y CON CEREBRO...... NO MANIQUÍES DE PORTADAS DE REVISTA... COMO ES EL MISS UNIVERSO..... AUNQUE SE RESCATAN A ALGUNAS MISS UNIVERSOS.. QUE SI BIEN MERECIDO GANARON SU CORONA
PERU one of the most beautiful Miss World!
ingrid Rivera Miss Puerto Rico años despues en el 2009 salio en Hasta que el dinero nos separe con Itati Cantoral y Pedro Fernandez

Yüksel ak kılpayı dünyagüzelı olmayı kaçırdı çoş uzgünüm
Iceland has a pretty face, but that's it. Puerto Rico and Mexico were far better choices.
Tan insignificante la ganadora, las dos finalistas la opacaron.
ALLI DE NADA SIRVE EL JURADO . JULIA ES LA QUE DECIDE
Pero que vestido tan FEO el de la ganadora!!! XD
Los rincones más recónditos de tu alma. Tienes razón, pero éso no le quita el mal gusto para vestir
Es uno de los vestidos más feos que e visto en una ganadora de miss Mundo. HORRIBLE!
PR debió ganar
Dafne Molina, Miss Mexico was the great favorite to win but
Julia Morley decided she didn't even deserve the crown.
ESA CORONA ERA DE PUERTO RICO SIN DUDA BELLISIMA MUJER
AL IGUAL EL ROBO DESCARADO QUE LE HICIERON A PERLA BELTRAN DE MEXICO
Y NI QUE HABLAR OTRO ROBO A MARINA MORA DE PERÚ 2002
SERIA EL COLMO QUE LE ROBASEN A IVIAN SARCOS Y A LA MAS HERMOSA DE TODAS MAJU

Claro! obviamente que fue robada, Miss puerto Rico era la mejor!
guest Account así es la de Puerto Ríco tenia todo, pero bueno son los jueces los que elijen
+guest Account si era la mejor por qué México quedó en segundo lugar y Puerto Rico en tercero?
