Bellazon’s hottest MOC compe hu tition
Personally I was surprised that Emmanuela made it so high, gorgeous though she is. Overall, I liked the top 10/20, and thought it wasn’t missing too many big “names” (except maybe Jasmine, Yasmin, Naomi...) I wish there had been more South Asian/Amerindian/Asian (non Chinese) and Middle Eastern girls in the final rankings and perhaps a few more classic models (names that were big pre-2005 say) but I loved that girls such as Oluchi and Arlenis did well. In particular, I am also very pleased about Joan and Liu’s rankings. They’ve never been my favourite but they are total icons!

Bellazon’s hottest MOC compe hu tition
First, thank you to everyone who took part. We may not have been many, but your votes were much appreciated. I hope you enjoyed the competition. I loved the idea of celebrating MOC beauties, with the top 20 having girls of origins from South Asia to Africa and the Caribbean via the Middle East to East Asia, all joined by the link of being basically gorgeous. Without further ado, here the top 20 Bellazon MOCs 20 - Cong (7.23) A high score for face, and mid-level scores for career and walk kept this Chinese beauty in the top 20 in spite of a low score for body. And how can you argue with those cheekbones? 19 - Cora (7.25) Cora is an all rounder, scoring reasonably well across all four categories, just missing out in the top twenty for career and face. 18 - Leila (7.27) Another girl with strong, but not exceptional, all round votes, Leila was seen in particular as a strong walker with a great body. 17 - Eden (7.37) Eden had extremely high scores for her looks, with top 10 placing for body and top 5 for face. However, very low scores for walk and career kept her from going higher in the ranking. Clearly, people want to see more of this girl though! 16 - Gizele (7.56) Gizele's face gave her her strongest, but her body and walk were much appreciated too. Her career may not be as visible as others, but she was well liked and scored a lot of votes across all rounds. 15 - Arlenis (7.66) Towards the upper end of an all-rounder, Dominican Arlenis made the top 10 with her walk, and top 20 for body and career. 14 - Riley (7.68) Riley was ranked in the lower end of career, top-10 in walk, and was considered as ranked the second best face, however a low average for body keeps her outside the top 10 overall. 13 - Kelly (7.69) Kelly's body was recognised for being a knockout, with a top 5 placement, however her career was also recognised for being impressive and she missed out by 0.05 from being in the face ranking. 12 - Ming (7.77) A top 10 pacing for her career, and number 12 placings for face and walk mean Ming was a sure-thing for the top 20 overall! 11 - Oluchi (7.82) Oluchi ranked solidly in all categories and placed in the top 20 for every one. You can see why she was such a VS favourite in the early 00's with such broad appeal! Were you surprised with the rankings? Anyone that you felt was missing (in career and walk for me, Naomi, but she was knocked out in the first round of the competition)? Anyone wronged? Any recommendations on running a competition if there is a next time? Thank you for taking part!
