At the casting it became clear there will be dancing, singing, a fashion show and even poetry. The organizers kept encouraging the new Miss AUBG participants to be brave and original, in order to show who they are and what makes them unique. Most of participants said main reason they wanted to participate in the contest was to get the new experience. “I don’t want to become Miss AUBG so much. […] I just want to have fun, and share what I am with the others,” said Azaliya Zaripova from Russia.
