On a positive note, it seems that the girls are still enjoying themselves in HK, having got more media exposure this year than previous years. My predictions, as usual would list out the potential champions, then the top-shots, followed by one or two contestants that I believe would be black-horses. To be honest, it is very hard to pick this year's top 3 as almost all of the contestants are very strong. It would pretty much depends on how they flare on the final night. But here is my fearful prediction:
Champion Contender
14) Jennifer Coosemans - Vancouver
Jennifer remains strong and stunning since day 1 and I would be thrilled to see her crowned as the Champion. As mentioned, her Chinese is extremely limited but hopefully the 26 judges (I felt so dumb typing this number) can look pass this and can see that she did indeed try hard to learn Chinese and she is the most stunning among the group. If Vancouver wins again, this would be their 7th MCI and 3rd MCI since the 2010s.
12) Tiana Luan - Sydney
Another strong candidate from Sydney. I would say look-wise, she is even better than Mandy Chai last year as she is not only pretty but she is also quite tall. She have the goods to be the Champion although she seems a bit reserved. If she can shine in the question and answer portion tomorrow, she would be definitely up there.
Top Shots
3) Louisa Mak - Hong Kong
Louisa is still sharp but she is just not on the same bar with the Champion materials mentioned above, especially when it is so obviously that she is much shorter than the other contestants. However, since the judging panel consists of SO MANY Miss Hong Kong-s, she would definitely be up there... This is so not fair to the other candidates. In terms of speaking, she is eloquent but I still prefer the way Grace Chan speaks.. that is how a Champion should sound like.. natural and to-the-point.
4) Sophia Wu - Nanjing
Sophia is cute and has been consistent throughout the week. She is one of the stronger mainland Chinese representatives in recent years. She has the teenage-aura of last year's 2nd runner-up Catherine. Even better, she seems more natural when delivering her words. She could be up there.
9) Mary Chen - New York
Well she is one of the favourites of the former MHKs and MCIs, along with her great body figure and eloquence, she would be strong tomorrow night. I think she has a shot in the top 5 but I would be a bit disappointed if she is in the top 3 because look-wise, she is not the strongest in the group. Her look does demand attention though.
Black-horses
11) Sherry Wang - Johannesburg
I originally would like to put her among the Top Shots, but she does not seem to be in the media's attention. There is something appealling about her. Maybe it is her refreshing aura with a sweet-looking face. I would not be surprised if she is in the Top 5, or even the Top 3 if she manages to shine in the final night.

This profile pic of hers doesn't do her justice. She has that sheer elegance in her. With a bit of luck and a good interview, she could be a top contender.
12) Karinne Legare - Montreal
Based on looks alone, she should be at the very top along with Jennifer. However, her styling and body shape is not good enough... I would be thrilled if she could be in the Top 3. She is even more gorgeous than the 2nd runner up in MCI 2014.
5) Janice Choong - KL
I'm putting Janice here as I believe she would be strong in areas such as Q&A and modelling, as can be found in KL representatives. She is the weakest girl from KL since Lenna Lim. Look-wise, she is just average among all of this year's stunning contestants, especially with such a poor styling from TVB. Hope she can crack into the top 10 by utilising her skills well.
My Wish-list / Prediction
Champion: Jennifer Coosemans - Vancuover
1st Runner-up: Louisa Mak - HK
2nd Runner-up: Tiana Luan - Sydney
Top 5: Mary Chen - New York / Sherry Wong - Johannesburg
