Miriam Alexander -"As a little girl with a big dream, I believed in the words no dream is too big and no dreamer too small. To become the next Miss Guyana Culture Queen would be both an honour and a responsibility. I will continue to work towards my goal of inspiring people to become the best version of themselves. To create a movement that helps my fellow Guyanese attain better health and to continue to represent my country with pride and dignity. To show the world what it means to be one people, one nation, with one destiny."
Precious Barrow -“I believe I should be the next Miss Guyana Culture Queen because I recognise the hard work and dedication required to carry the crown and I am fully committed to ensuring that our culture and rich heritage shine brightly on or offstage. It would be an honour to be crowned as your next Queen and to embrace this role with all of my heart.”
Teija Edwards -“When I think of why I want to win the Miss Guyana Culture Queen Title, I think of how it will allow me to explore and understand my country’s and region’s culture more while also allowing me to grow as a person in more ways than one, but also want people to be able to see a different side of me, to know that Teija is more than what they perceive her to be.”
Anika Felicien- “Becoming Miss Guyana Culture Queen would be a journey of personal growth and a profound opportunity to immerse myself in Guyana’s rich heritage. With this crown, I am eager to become a beacon for learning and educating others about the vibrant tapestry of Guyanese culture. As a future ambassador, I am committed to empowering our community through cultural education and preservation.”
Shanae Heber- “I firmly believe that every woman is exceptional in her own way, bringing a unique perspective to the world. However, I am part of a generation of women who are fearlessly shattering the glass ceiling and blazing trails, paving the way for more women and girls to follow. It is my unwavering determination and innate drive to pursue my passions and promote the continuous transfer of knowledge from one generation to the next. That truly sets me apart.
Shequana Holder- “My extensive pageantry experience has honed my leadership, communication, and stage presence skills, which I’m eager to use to showcase Guyanese culture. As a proud Guyanese I’m committed to promoting our heritage and advocating pivotal cultural issues. Winning Miss Guyana Culture Queen in 2024 would give me an even bigger platform to inspire cultural pride and empower the next generation.”
Tiqumba Hunte- “To be Miss Guyana Culture Queen is both an honour and responsibility. If I were to become the next Miss Guyana Culture Queen, I will use my voice to empower youths and I would seek to advocate and raise awareness for youths who struggle with lack of self-confidence and depression. The person who deserves to win and to be crowned Miss Guyana Culture Queen 2024 is the person who has worked hard for it and is willing to do everything to continue the legacy of our nation. She is resilient, committed, confident with personality and I believe, I AM HER.
I believe determination and passion is what truly matters, always be true to who you are, obstacles will come your way but remember to be you. Only if you aspire you can inspire.”
Jahniah Joseph -“Since the age of seven, I developed a passion for pageantry but never had the opportunity to chase it because of my location. Until one day I was randomly scrolling instagram and I came across the Miss Guyana Culture Queen poster, requesting girls who are interested in pageantry.
I thought to myself, this is the moment I have been waiting for and decided to seize it and here I am now a proud contestant.
I also see this as a great opportunity for me to be able to build my confidence, form a sisterhood with other pageant girls and it also gives me the opportunity to come out my comfort zone and try something new and being able to positively impact and inspire others especially my peers.”
Kayla McAllister- “Due to my hard work ethics, I am always thinking about my next goals as well as planning how to best achieve them. Pride is something I take in any work that I do and I strive to ensure I do it to the best of my abilities. I know the responsibilities that come with the title “Miss Guyana Culture Queen” and not only am I willing but excited to face them along with any challenges that it comes with. Lastly I do believe my attributes would make me a great contestant to represent my great nation Guyana on the stage of Miss Caribbean Culture Queen.”
Alicia Walcott- I believe being crowned as a queen should not be determined by beauty but should be about leadership, independence, being compassionate about others and most importantly, confidence. I strongly believe I possess these qualities and being the queen I’d have the opportunity to showcase these qualities not only locally but also regionally and internationally as I wish to meet as many people as I can.”
