Saturday May 11 2019 was a night of beauty, elegance, extravagance and love as Supa stylistics hosted their annual Guyana Mother Daughter Pageant at the National Cultural Centre. The spectacular event began with a red-Carpet affair hosted by popular media personalities Gordon Moseley and Felize Roberts who interacted with the many who turned out to witness the event. The theme of the event was the celebration of women and the role of mothers in our society.

The Pageant featured pairs of mothers and daughters competing for top honors displaying their beauty, talent, creativity and that special and deniable bond between mothers and their Daughters. This year’s Contestants obviously came to perform. They made for an absolutely brilliant and exciting show and a nearly impossible task for the hard working judges.  As is customary the pageant was contested in three categories; the junior, Always Middle and senior Categories. Each category could be described as “nail biters “as close margins separated the contestants.

 

 

In the end the night belonged to the big winners namely: former Miss Guyana Jenel Cox-Greeves and her Daughter Trinity for the junior Category, Sabrina Marcus and Nashavia for the Always middle Category and Alicia Brown- Deeges and Aleria for the Senior Category…

The programme featured many of Guyana’s most acclaimed entertainment acts which added to the night’s ambiance. These included The National Dance Company and many musical acts including the Heat Wave band and many more. However, the Vocal spectacle provide by lead vocalists Tenecia DeFrietas and Carlvin Burnett took a life of its own and earned many ovations from the enthralled audience. Calvin Burnett would again take the stage to serenade the contestants and provide them each with roses.  In a surprise twist, Burnett gave a rose to Guyana’s First lady Sandra Granger who caused an uproar from the stunned audience as she took the mic from the Burnett and treated us to her smooth and tantalizing vocals.
