Miss World 2012 grand coronation night happened tonight, August 18 at the Dongsheng Fitness Center Stadium in Ordos, Inner Mongolia, China and Miss China PR was hailed as Miss World 2012 in the 62nd edition of the Miss World pageant held in her home country.
Miss World China, Wen Xia Yu was crowned by Miss World 2011 Ivian Sarcos. She bested 115 of the most beautiful women in the world who represented their respective countries.
Miss World Philippines Queenierich Rehman made it to the Top 15 semifinalists but failed to make it to the next round. However, Queenierich made that mark as the very first Miss World candidate in history to showcase her very unique talent (beatboxing) and made world headlines (and for that, she should have won Miss Talent but...).
