She was the sweetest Rosemary of them all.
From early Sunday evening, Rosemary Forde set herself apart from the six other contestants to take the Miss Teen Barbados Universal pageant for 2014. The 15th edition of the competition was held at the Lloyd Erskine Sandiford Centre under the theme: Flowers In Bloom.
The talented teen was a clear crowd favourite and was loudly cheered on by an intimate crowd of supporters, some of whom waved banners and signs to show their love.
Forde also took Miss Congeniality and Best Talent for her dramatisation of the horrors of racism, and shone in the question and answer segment.
First runner-up went to Miss Photogenic, Talisha Harding, while Tennille Graham was third. Graham also won Best Project and Best Gown. Shanea Waithe, Tia Murray, Zaria Worrell and Sonja Waithe also participated in the near four-hour show organised by Sparkles International.
