Miss Scotland named Miss UK; heads to Miss International 2011

DELIGHTED Miss Scotland Nicola Mimnagh yesterday celebrated being the best of British – as she was officially crowned Miss UK.

The gorgeous brunette earned the coveted title after finishing ahead of the other home nations girls at the recent Miss World contest in China. To mark the honour, the 24-year-old beauty queen, of Kilbarchan, Renfrewshire, posed in a tiny Saltire bikini under a giant Union Jack. Nicola said: “I’m delighted to fly the flag for Britain – but this skimpy Saltire bikini shows the sexiest side of me will always be Scottish.”

Nicola – who was in the top 25 at Miss World last month – follows a proud tradition of seven other Miss Scotlands to win the UK title. And Miss World organiser Steven Morley reckons that’s all down to The Scottish Sun’s hunt to unearth stunners year after year.

He said: “Miss Scotland always does well because The Scottish Sun finds the best girls in the land. Nicola is so bubbly and will make a great Miss UK.”

Nicola – who was crowned Miss Scotland in June – can expect lucrative modelling deals and is attracting interest from top jewellers Cartier. But good causes are also close to her heart and she attended a lunch for kids’ charity CHAS yesterday. Caring Nicola said: “It’s a responsibility I take very seriously.”

    Please confirm if it’s true! I heard that the representative for United Kingdom at Miss International is the one who have the best placement in four countries: English, Scotland, Northern Ireland, and Wales at Miss Word? Is it right? (If it’s true, then what one of the four representatives win the competition then who will head to Miss International?)

    Was Miss Scotland a miss world 2010 semi-finalist? I thought Miss Northern Ireland was the best place home contestant?

    Hey all, it’s true. Miss Scotland was in the top 25 of Miss World therefore automatically becomes Miss UK as she was the highest placed girl from the United Kingdom. Miss Northern Ireland was also in the top 25 of Miss World, but she was only there because she had won a fast track event (sport). Miss Scotland was a judges choice to be in top 25 and therefore placed higher than Miss Northern Ireland.

    miss scotland 2001 was 2nd runner-up in miss world. she represented the united kingdom in miss international 2002 but didnt place. if ever one of the three uk beauties would win miss world, then out of respect to the miss world title, one of the three non-winners will represent the bristish kingdom.
