Michelle Guy won the title of Miss Universe Australia 2005 on April 1. She beat 22 other contestants at the annual beauty pageant at SkyCity Casino in Darwin, Australia, and now has a right to represent her country in the Miss Universe 2005 contest in Bangkok on May 30.
Born in Western Australia, Michelle Guy is a 19-years-old student at the University of Western Australia, Health Science and Commerce, majoring in public health, management and pathology. New Miss Australia 2005 loves outdoor sports and creative design and hopes to help people to improve their living standards and level of education.
While the title of Miss Australia 2005 was a total shock for her, she understands that her chances to win at the Miss Universe pageant 2005 are really low as reigning Miss Universe 2004 is her compatriot Jennifer Hawkins. "No country has ever won two years in a row, so with Jennifer having won last year the odds are against me," said Michelle.
Yet, Miss Australia 2004 believes that Michelle has all the qualities necessary for the victory: "She is so cute and beautiful - she has the complete package," shared Jennifer Hawkins.
