Can we get a loud cheer for Ethiopia’s Hasset Dereje? She just carried Africa into the Top 4 at the 72nd Miss World in India, representing the continent with style and power as Miss Continental Africa.

She rose from a solid lineup of African semi-finalists, including Nigeria’s Joy Mojisola Raimi, who bowed out as a Top 20 finalist after showing up strong throughout the competition. Only two from Africa made it past the semi-final cut—Hasset and Namibia’s Selma Kamanya—and only Hasset carried the continent into the final round.

Also making it to the final four are Martinique’s Aurélie Joachim (Americas and Caribbean), Poland’s Maja Klajda (Europe), and Thailand’s Opal Suchata (Asia and Oceania).

Each continental region winner is now closer to the Miss World crown.
