| 21-year old Miss Russia, Ksenia Sukhinova, was crowned Miss World 2008 at the conclusion of a spectacular event televised live to over 2 billion people in 130 countries. Sukhinova, 1.78 m student and model from the Tyumen region in Russia, will spend her year making appearances for various charity and social causes and attending high-end events and shows.
The 1st runner-up was Miss India, Parvathy Onamakuttan; and the 2nd runner-up was Miss Trinidad & Tobago, Gabrielle Walcott, who also won the "Beauty with a Purpose" fast-track for her work with children suffering from cancer.
Also in the top 5 were the contestants from Angola (Brigith dos Santos) and South Africa (Tansey Coetzee).
It was announced the day before that the Miss World 2009 pageant will take place again in Johannesburg, next December.
109 contestants competed in the 58th edition of the Miss World pageant, the largest number ever.
The event also had performances by Alesha Dixon and popular rock band McFly who moved the audience with their catchy music.
