Miss Photogenic at Miss World : From Time to Time

Long before the Fast Track awards emerged in 2003, Miss World has actually had its own version of Miss Photogenic award. The award was first presented in 1969 and continued to be presented at most editions until in 2001, when it was awarded for the last time. Overall there are 27 women who has won this award, mostly from Venezuela. Now you can see all of them here, starting from the latest winner of 2001 edition to the very first winner of the 1969 edition!

So which one of these photogenic women is the most beautiful one? If you ask me, my answer would be, of course, Aishwarya Rai, whom considered by many as the most beautiful Beauty Queen ever lived. But my sentimental favorite would be Kayonga Mureka Tete, not only because she won the award on the same year as I was born, but also because African women barely won Miss Photogenic award at international stage. So how about yourself? Which one is your favorite among this long and historical list of beautiful women?
