Will The Real Miss Lebanon Diaspora Please Stand Up?
August 18, 2010 · Mustapha Hamoui
The two ladies in the picture above can both claim that they were officially elected in 2010 as the prettiest Lebanese woman who lives outside of Lebanon. But the truth of the matter is, there is no such thing as an official “Miss Lebanese Diaspora”.
Miss Taunay Abour Rjeily, left, is “Miss Lebanon Overseas”. She lives in Brazil and was crowned on July 13th in Le Royal hotel, Dbayyeh.
Miss Daniella Rahme, right, is “Miss Lebanon Emigrant”. She lives in Australia and was crowned on August 17th (yesterday), in Casino Du Liban, Adma.
If you add Miss Lebanon and Miss USA Rima Fakih (who is of Lebanese origin) to the mix, we can start suspecting that the Lebanese Ministry of Tourism has an undeclared “the more the merrier” policy when it comes to Lebanese beauties.
