Of course they put on their best smiles for the cameras, and their coiffure and make-up was perfect. Their poise in red or green knee-length asymmetrical dresses immaculate.
And on Friday evening at the Serena Kampala Hotel, the 22 girls that will fight for the coveted Redd's Miss Uganda 2013/14 were presented to the press and a few invited guests.
It wasn't a night for them to hit the runway with their best gaits, that's why some of them like the Northern beauty queen Judith Acayo seemed to run through her walk, but they looked exceptional in their dresses. They accessorized the dresses with either thin or large buckled belts that matched the colour of their shoes.
They were supposed to be 20 finalists, but according to organizer Brenda Nanyonjo, they were overwhelmed by the quality of girls that turned up at the national pre-selection prelims held last Wednesday at Garden City, Rooftop. But it seems crowds had eyes for the Miss Western beauty queen Anita Kyarimpa, judging by the screams that rent the air when she strutted the runway.

But then there were other girls who oozed that runway attitude and killed it. That girl Jaylor Burungi was one of them. We will wait and see what she will do considering a lot is noted before one becomes Miss Uganda, and not only the external hotness.
The night's host Crystal Newman, herself salacious in her green dress, had announced two would be eliminated so that they remained 20, but it wasn't the case. It will be the 22 who will go for a three-week stay in the boot camp on 22nd June at Ndere Cultural Centre, Ntinda.
The search for 2013/14 Miss Uganda, partly sponsored by Vision Group's Kampala Sun and Kezzi Entertainment, has been on for the past two months with the scouts scouring the Northern, Western, Central and Eastern region for the queens. In Judith Acayo (Northern) Anita Kyarimpa (Western), Stella Nantumbwe (Central) and Margaret Ilwanu (Eastern), they got the regional queens who won the first four slots of the top 20 finalists.
The final will be held on July 13th at Serena Kampala Hotel.
SMS One announced the public fans will also be able to vote for their favourite contestant, and the winner of that vote will be crowned Miss Popularity. They will be voting through text by typing Miss Popularity and then contestant's name and sending to 8888.
