Wenika Ewing
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Weniecka Ewing (sometimes spelled as Wenika Ewing) is a fashion model from the Caribbean Turks and Caicos Islands.
A native of the town of Cockburn, Ewing's family members and friends noticed her looks and suggested a future in modeling.
Ewing first won the 2004 Miss Cockburn contest, and finally, the Miss Turks & Caicos contest. Winning this contest guaranteed her right to compete in Miss Universe.
Ewing arrived in May of 2005 at Thailand to compete for the Miss Universe crown of that year. The contest's finale was held on May 30.
While in Bangkok for the international competition, Ewing won Thailand's Ministry of Tourism and Sports Award during the national costume competition. At 5'3", Ewing was the shortest delegate in the contest and could not beat the overwhelming odds in the highly competitive final. Canada's Natalie Glebova won the title.
Ewing, who just graduated high school, would like to become the Turks and Caicos' first maritime lawyer.
