Nevaeh Allen, a 19-year-old business administration student at the University of the Commonwealth Caribbean (UCC), has been named Miss Jamaica World 2025. Allen, who hails from Linstead, St Catherine, was crowned by outgoing queen Tahje Bennett on Sunday night at the Karl Hendrickson Auditorium at Jamaica College in St Andrew. Rounding out the top three were first runner-up Asia Wright, who also received the title Miss International Jamaica, and second runner-up Brianna Foster, who was named Miss Earth Jamaica.

Allen wore the Miss Reggae Jamaica Village sash and was also awarded Most Congenial. Wright, who wore the Miss Knutsford Express sash, received the Most Poised award, while Foster, who competed as Miss Jergens, copped Best Personality.

The Miss Jamaica World grand coronation, originally scheduled for November 2 last year, was postponed following Hurricane Melissa, resulting in the 2025 title being awarded this year.
