  • Resumen

  • Examing Jennifer Hosten's life, focusing on her historic 1970 Miss World win as the first Black woman and its significant impact on pop culture. Hosten's memoir, Miss World 1970: The Craziest Pageant in History and the Rest of My Life, is central to the analysis, chronicling her journey from Grenada to international recognition amidst feminist protests and racial scrutiny. The source explores how her victory challenged prevailing beauty standards and contributed to broader conversations about representation. Beyond the pageant, the text highlights Hosten's subsequent career in broadcasting, diplomacy, and public service, further cementing her influence. Finally, it considers the enduring legacy of her win, including its dramatization in the film Misbehaviour, and her overall contribution to shaping cultural perceptions of beauty, race, and gender.
