Through my career, I have experienced the highs and lows of social media. I know what a powerful and amazing tool it can be, but I also know how important it is that we do all we can to keep our children safe online.” Said Mahira Khan.

Ramina Ashfaque Miss Pakistan Charity International 2015 (Runner Up 2 Miss Pakistan World)

Latest Interview of Ramina Ashfaque   Miss Pakistan Charity International 2015 (Runner Up 2 Miss Pakistan World) How was the overall experience in the Miss Pakistan World 2015 pageant and what did you place? It was a unique experience to meet other Pakistani women that have been raised in other cultures and in other parts of the world. It was refreshing to be reminded that no matter where we live we can still represent our own culture. I have always had a passion for dancing and performing and I had so much fun working with the choreographer and learning the choreography with everyone there. As with every pageant you meet new people, but it was even more special to meet other Pakistani girls who share the same obstacles in our journey to be where we are.

Exclusive Interview of ANZHELIKA TAHIR – MISS PAKISTAN WORLD 2015

 Standing tall, with a physique like a mannequin, this half Pakistani and half Ukrainian beauty is the first girl to be of mixed races representing Pakistan. Anzhelika’s father belongs to Sheikhupura , Punjab , Pakistan and her mother is Ukrainian from Kiev , Ukraine . Anzhelika Tahir is Pakistan’s 13th Miss Pakistan World to be crowned on the 31st of October, 2015 in Toronto, Canada. Tell us about yourself! First of all, I want to say, that I never thought that I could be a beauty queen titleholder. I grow up in Kiev, Ukraine as my mother is Ukrainian and my father is Pakistani. Since my childhood I’d always been an outsider. During my elementary school days I didn’t have friends. Because of my skin color no one wanted to sit with me at the desk. I remember clearly the moments when I used to come home and take showers with a super hard sponge because somebody told me that if I take a good shower I could become a white-skinned girl. I don’t remember exactly whe...
