The Hilton Post Oak in Houston played host to the international search for the most outstanding teenager in the world. This past August, 24 contestants from all over the globe vied for the opportunity to be Miss Teen World 2010 and a Greek, Anastasia Sidiropoulou, beat them all!

Anastasia, 17 years old, comes from the Thrakomakedones Mountains in Athens, Greece. She is a recent high school graduate who will go on to university to become a doctor. In addition, Anastasia has aspirations to become a model. Beautiful inside and out, she loves painting, playing the guitar and sketching political cartoons for her father’s, Nikos Sidiropoulos’, newspaper. Anastasia will spend her year promoting the Miss Teen World Pageant and their motto “Be Your Own Kind of Beautiful”.

After a week of rehearsals, social functions and making friends from all over the world, 24 young ladies took part first to a preliminary round of competition in swimsuit and evening. The following day, the distinguished group of international judges spent some time getting to know each of the ladies in a panel-style interview where business-style dresses or suits were worn by the contestants.

Then, 12 semi-finalists were announced and they were: Miss Teen Canada-World Channing Smendziuk, Miss Teen India-World Shreya Ishita, Miss Teen New Zealand-World Chane Berghorst, Miss Teen Siberia-World Osodoeva Oyuna, Miss Teen South Pacific-World Cassie Sumimoto, Miss Teen Mexico-World Dora Molina, Miss Teen South Africa-World Ti-Amore’ Fourie, Miss Teen Greece-World Anastasia Sidiropoulou, Miss Teen Guyana-World Candace Charles, Miss Teen United States-World Belle Owen, Miss Teen Aruba-World Sara Thornton and Miss Teen Namibia-World Marisa Maloney. The 12 were narrowed down to five and each of them was asked an on-stage question. The final results were as follows: the 4th runner up was Miss Teen South Pacific-World Cassie Sumimoto, 3rd runner up Miss Teen Guyana-World Candace Charles, 2nd runner up was Miss Teen South Africa-World Ti-Amore’ Fourie and 1st runner up was Miss Teen Canada-World Channing Smendziuk.

Crowned by the outgoing Miss Teen World 2009, Tayla Robinson of South Africa, Anastasia won a prize package valued over $30,000 including a $5,000 educational scholarship. The crown, cash, wardrobe, jewelry, media training and travel opportunities are just some of the luxuries she will experience during her year. She receives several photo shoots from official photographer See What Develops in Houston. The participating sponsors included Crown Couture, XOXO clothing company, Frederico Leone Shoes and Gaspar Cruz Cosmetics. But most importantly, Miss Teen World receives an once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to be a representative of teenagers all over the world.
