MISS UNIVERSE GREAT BRITAIN 2011 CONTESTANT - Emma Machin


Through pageants I have held a variety of titles and through acting I have played parts in Shameless, Britannia High, Blue Murder, and Boy A. I have also performed as an assistant for a world-renowned magician, Andrew Van Buren. This enabled me to travel all over the UK raising money for multiple charities, through a Circus starr winter magic charity tour. I was the first UK resident to train with the Moscow State Circus, my speciality being in Aerial Silk work. I have attained Honours awards in dance, and trained in Modern Jazz, Tap, Freestyle, Rock & Roll, Cheer Leading and Irish dancing. I also studied in Beauty Therapy achieving an NVQ2, this led to me managing my own salon. As I am petite, my aims include breaking the stereotypical view of models seen today and would like to Inspire other young women, by giving them belief in themselves to reach their goals. I also aim to continue to help others through charity work, bringing me closer to new people and their diverse cultures. I am passionate, enthusiastic and would embrace any opportunities that being successful in Miss Universe GB would bring.

MISS UNIVERSE GREAT BRITAIN 2011 CONTESTANT - Hannah Lloyd-Calam


I have a strong academic skill set of which I am very proud; 4 A* grades and 8 A grades for GCSE, 4 A-levels in Maths, English Literature, European History and Dance. I have a passion for dance, which developed from an early age and since I have been awarded a full scholarship for full time study at the prestigious arts school: Italia Conti Academy of Theatre Arts. Currently, I am in my second year of study and hope to leave the school and live my dream of working in the West End! My favourite musical is ‘We will rock you’ and to be involved in the production would be an honour. While studying performing arts I also work at ‘Abercrombie and Fitch’ which has been great to widen my business experience but has also enabled me to socialize with lots of different people and make great friends. I love spending time with my mum and we often do charity work together. Recently, we have raised more than £1,000 for the Variety Club North West through various car-boot sales and sponsorship. I also intend to run the Cancer Research race for life later in the year and raise money for Cancer Research UK in memory of my Grandma. I am ecstatic to have been chosen as one of the finalists for Miss Great Britain and can’t wait to take part in such a fantastic event!
