The 59th Miss World pageant, Miss World 2009, held on December 12, 2009 at the Gallagher Convention Centre in Johannesburg, South Africa crowned Kaiane Aldorino of Gibraltar the new Miss World. Aldorino had to compete with 111 other beauties from all around the world.

This year, Miss Nepal Zenisha Moktan participated in the event and as expected, she couldn’t win any titles. But, participation in itself was an achievement when compared to the last minute cancelation of last year’s Miss Nepal event.

In the event, the first runner-up was Miss Mexico, Perla Beltrán, second runner-up was Miss South Africa Tatum Keshwar, third runner-up was Miss France, Chole Mortaud and fourth runner-up was Miss Canada Lena Ma. Details on the event and participants can be found in this Wikipedia page.
