Miss Universe 2021: ‘I made my country & myself proud’ - VI’s Xaria Penn
In the three-hour live show held last evening, December 12, 2021, contestants modeled in swimsuits and evening gowns amongst other competitions, however, although she did not get the crown, Miss Universe BVI Xaria Penn still managed to stun the audiences on the Miss Universe stage.
In a statement ahead of last evening's pageant on the Miss Universe BVI Page, the organization said “We can not express how proud we are of Queen Xaria’s performance thus far! And no matter the outcome we are absolutely pleased with her representation of the British Virgin Islands.”

Thank you for representing Ms Penn.
be curious andesearched the internet for info about these beautiful Islands. What they found, unfortunately,was the face of a 4 year local prison escapee, a foreigner, living his best life in full view while conducting his established profession as purveyor of ammunition, guns and unidentified contraband described as the largest amount in BVI history. Yes, evidence that our prison gates and our ports, are wide open to one and all. They would have also found reports of a gun homicide and a death ride by scooter. Victims and perpetrator are a BLack young men,so consideration of visiting should not be daunted. It is simply the usual Black Lives and love. The Sand and sea is amazing.
Many who are criticizing cannot do what you did so skip pass the negative comments. BVI people are so dangerous that its no joke. Had you made it to the top 10 or 5 they would have been asking for a national holiday. That's life. Take all of the negativity to build your ladder and keep soaring.
Most of these negative comments are coming from Haters who doesn't really represent Virgin Islanders. They have no ounce of regards for anything Positive in the Virgin Islands much less for the People. #VIRGINISLANDSMYISLANDSMYPRIDEMYLIFE
Well Done Xaria!!!
Thanks Xaria
Congratulations xaria ! You made us proud indeed .
If I'm not mistaken the Black women who won this competition many moons ago, wore their hair in it's natural lengths of relaxed or natural styles !
Black women have gotta learn to respect themselves through their hair representations.
Anything else always yields losers.
I am of the view that the win of Ms. India was political, since Vice Presidents Harris' mother was of Indian origin, giving a nod to the South Asian country.
Only the willingness of ALL Black women in these competitions
wearing their hair in it's natural lengths, as a group,will they ever gain global respect!
It will never be any other way, extensions, wigs, and other "added" pieces, notwithstanding!
You disgusting people should be ashamed of yourselves for throwing shade at a 18 year old. You damn people is always trying to bring someone down with your jealous salty nasty a**s.
