New York (Tadias) – 19-year-old Bewunetwa Abebe, who participated in the recently completed 2009 International Beauty and Model festival in China, has won the title of Model of Africa.

She was the second teenage Ethiopian model from the Ethiopian Millennium pageant to represent Ethiopia at an international beauty competition, which took place in Kunming, the capital of southwest China’s Yunnan province, a primarily agricultural province of 45 million.

The 3-weeks event from April 22 to May 7 gave the
participants an opportunity to display their country’s
attire as well as their posing skills.

  1. Selam dear editors,
    I would like to tell you that today the final decision is made and Germany’s next top model 2009 is Ethiopian! This is unbelievable! A black beauty Sara Nuru (19) is Germany’s next top model. Could you please do some report about the story.

    Thank you!

  2. I believe there is some kind of an inside job going on regarding this pageant. Because her sisters have already been pageant queens before and now she made it just like that. I don’t know…No offense to her beauty, just saying;)

  3. Lulk………….. You sound retarded, the story line is that beauty runs in her family and several of her elder sister have also represent Ethiopia at beauty pageants.

    Somehow that is too hard for you to understand and conspiracy theories spring to mind so the organises in china also conspired to crown her? My My Please get a life, Or visit http://beautiesofafricainc.blogspot.com/ and http://www.missethiopiaworld.com/
    see how they have be promoting several African countries including Ethiopia maybe they should stop promoting Ethiopia I guess that will make you happy?

  4. hi konjo i am so happy for you. Just ignore the haters because you deserve this and everyone is proud of you for representing Ethiopia. Go gurl, much success!!!!!!
