A Ginger Shall Inherit The World...

Miss Ireland 2013 has been chosen folks and we're totally stoked. Not only because this year's Irish entrant into Miss World hails from County Tipperary and exudes all the class & poise you'd expect. But, she's also a natural ginger top. It really is about time Ireland sent a redhead out to conquer the world...

Aoife Walsh - Miss Ireland 2013

When we spotted Aoife Walsh among the cast of this year's Miss Ireland hopefuls we really hoped the judges would opt for the Tipperary lass. For the longest time we've been sending beautiful girls to Miss World but very few of them really had that 'Irish' look. Okay, we know the whole ginger thing is a stereotype, but what a way to stand-out at Miss World.

Last weekend our very own Aoife Walsh became Miss Ireland 2013 at The Ballsbridge Hotel. Runners-up were Kate Monahan & Emma Cronin. Hard luck to those two gals and all the rest of them lovely ladies but we're thinking this year's winner has the best hope of taking home the title since Rozanna Davison stole the show.

So there you have it folks, Aoife Walsh is Miss Ireland 2013. Hats-off to the organisers & judges, a great show and a great result... We can just see it now, as they pop the Miss World tiara on Aoife's ginger crown as It's A Long Way To Tipperary plays in the background. Nice.
