#4 Patricia hopes that audiences will remember her as an outgoing and bubbly contestant. She enjoys meeting new people and trying new things. Not only did Patricia want to challenge herself with new experiences (like, signing up for the 2019 Miss Chinese Toronto Pageant and all the firsts that come along with the competition), but she also wanted to show the Chinese traditions that she grew up with, including language and culture. If Patricia were to be crowned this year’s champion, she would make sure that her voice is heard as she shares Chinese-Canadian culture with people from all over the world.

After competing on The Voice China, Shuhei Nagasawa hit a roadblock in his songwriting process. As he struggled with his next steps, he wrote down how he felt in the moment and turned it into a song. Shortly after, he released his first single "Crimson Love", which skyrocketed his presence in the music industry. Since then, his career in music has not slowed down. In 2016, he released two more singles “I Think” and “My Only Dream”, and his EP “Hide My Tears”. Since then, he has signed with famous Japanese entertainment label Amuse, and has also participated in the Japanese production of “Romeo & Juliet” (produced in partner with Johnny & Associates). As he prepares to take the Miss Chinese Toronto Pageant stage as a guest performer, he is excited to return to his roots and the city where his dream first became true.

Two generations of music lovers collide, as they often explored the techniques of lyrical composition and discussed performance techniques of different singers from varying genres.Whenever Zhou writes a new song, he turns to his father for opinions on how to improve on all levels. During his time on Sing My Song, he wrote a touching song dedicated to his father, which became a huge hit with judges and fans alike. Zhou is currently active in the music industry,writing music with icons like Lala Hsu, Yan Kun, Tia Ray and more, and continuing to advance his singing career.

As the saying goes: Women are pleasing to others. But the truth is, makeup is often a girls' best friend. #1 Elaine prefers a colour palette consisting of white, light purple and blue. This simple, yet popping, mix suits her best. #2 Serena believes that it is normal for girls to love all things beauty. For her, it is easy to find an outfit that matches perfectly, and a handbag that can make said outfit pop. Serena loves red, because to her, it symbolizes enthusiasm. The change of an angle can bring a whole new view of the world.

Part of the pageant process is doing due diligence by emphasizing the importance of giving back to the community. On October 25th,our finalists paid a visit to the Daily Bread Food Bank and spent the morning giving back to the less fortunate.

Their tour of one of Canada’s largest food banks started with food sorting, where they had the opportunity to get hands-on and go through donations. Through teamwork, they made sure that all donations had not passed their 'best before' date and separated them into their corresponding categories.

The Daily Bread Food Bank is also a provider of hot meals for the less fortunate. The finalists had the opportunity to assist in potato-preparation in the kitchen. Their nimble peeling-skills and determination, as they pared through 15lbs of potatoes, garnered praise from both staff and volunteers present.

To be able to help those less fortunate than ourselves is an experience that surely would not be forgotten by all anytime soon.

‍

Part of the pageant process is doing due diligence by emphasizing the importance of giving back to the community. On October 25th,our finalists paid a visit to the Mon Sheong Long-Term Care Facility in Richmond Hill and spent the afternoon with residents and staff. 

The Miss Chinese Toronto Pageant is entering its milestone 25th year. To celebrate, residents and finalists teamed up to tackle an art project: design a sculpture that incorporates Mon Sheong and MCTP’s 25th anniversary. As the countdown timer reached zero, excitement and satisfaction could be heard from the teams of 2 as they completed their creations and prepared to show them off.

Finalists also serenaded long-term care residents with musical performances. From singing to the piano to flute, and a little dancing in-between, the golden oldie songs performed surely brought a blast from the past for the audience.

The joyous laughter that filled the room ensured that today's experience left a mark in the hearts of all.
