Not to be mean, but uh... She's not exactly what I would consider to be beauty pageant material.

She's the only one who did not answer the 'what do you want' question with the request for world peace. (Though I am sure she wants world peace. There are also much better photos of her.)

She's kinda a fuggo though. Nobody is going to look at that and go "wow, I wish my gf was that hot."

I wasn't even aware there were any black people in Ireland. I'm sure she deserves it though, and this isn't some kind of meaningless token victory given to her strictly because of her skin color to make the people in charge of such things feel better about themselves and their devotion to "progress."

There's a joke that when the church was raising money for all the starving Africans in the 1980s people were really pleased to help out and give but they didn't expect the Africans to turn up in person to thank them.
