Grand Turk natives Clay Seymour and Mauqueita Carter captured
The
Body Show’s contests
over the weekend. The Body Show: Miss Body Beautiful & Mr Best Body TCI contests were a hit
summer sensation with Carter capturing
Miss Body Beautiful TCI 2013
and Seymour being
sashed as the first Mr
Best Body TCI at Brayton Hall in Provo, on
Saturday July 27th.
Mauqueita Carter, a 22-year-old Fire
Fighter stood out from her competitors with her presence, confident
demeanor, dazzling smile, standout physique and charismatic stage presentation.
No stranger to competition, Mauqueita
won Little
Miss Regatta 1997, Little Miss Summer Jam 1997 & 1998, Miss
Regatta 2008, Miss Salt Cay 2008, and now Miss Body Beautiful TCI 2013.
The former track and field star said she
came to Provo to take that crown back home, Grand Turk. Of her win, “I knew that I
would be triumphant over the girls. I prepared well in advance, took the event
seriously, took on board the advice and coaching provided, and went out on that
stage with the knowledge that I am Miss Body Beautiful TCI 2013! And with my
faith and the support of my family and close friends, I knew that crown was
mine,” said
a beaming Mauqueita.
Not only did Mauqueita,
a mother of one - won the contest, but she was also successful at winning the ‘RTC Viewer’s Choice Award” (female) award with 286 votes, winning herself
with an RTC plaque with her photo thereon and a spa treatment to Spa Sanay. What
is more, owning to this, Radio Turks & Caicos (RTC) has invited bubbly Fire
Fighter to do a forth-nightly
show - live on air.

“Being the first of anything is great,
and I’m happy, proud and honored that I am the first Mr Best Body TCI, said
Clay. He went on to add: “I worked hard to achieve this goal; changing my diet,
nutrition, upping my workout routine and being more regimented about the
symmetry and tone of my physique. This was indeed a well deserved
win, one that I will have to defend come next summer,” said the cycling
enthusiast.
As part of the terms of The Body Show Miss Body Beautiful & Mr Best Body TCI contests,
both contest winners are invited back to compete to retain their titles. This
will give them the opportunity to further perfect their physique, fitness
