Jahmea Bent is preparing for her biggest stage yet, representing Belize at the Miss Caribbean Culture Queen Pageant in Nevis in August of this year. Bent is described by the organisation as a multi-talented Belizean-American beauty queen whose roots run deep in the Jewel.
The 25-year-old, born in Los Angeles to Belizean parents, is no stranger to excellence, according to the organisers. She was crowned Miss Caribbean Los Angeles 2024, sweeping top awards in talent, interview, and fitness.
Now, she’s preparing to compete on the international stage on August 4th as part of Nevis’ annual Culturama celebrations.
Though based in the U.S., Bent maintains strong ties to Belize. The organisers noted that she frequently returns home, mentors young people, champions local causes, and proudly carries Belizean culture with her all the time.
Ahead of the pageant, she will appear in a pre-show interview in July and is expected to engage with local media virtually.
Her journey can be followed on Facebook at Miss Caribbean Culture Belize.
