Most of you reading this interview right now, might have a doubt – is she Sri Lankan? Yes, she is Sri Lankan. In fact, she won 3rd place at the recently concluded Siyatha Lux Miss Sri Lanka for Miss World 2013. Sharon Ruth Iresha Huyghebaert is very outgoing and humble. And I discovered that she is also very talented in many ways. Occasionally she works as a fashion model and has worked with many fashion designers and photographers as well.

Sharon, here is a question I ask all 2nd or 3rd place winners in a beauty pageant. What made you number 3 and not number 1?
The overall competition was a superb experience for me. And I learned many things and it also boosted my confidence. Even though I came third in the competition, I don’t believe I had a losing point. I strongly believe that I learned so many new things while also gaining a lot of experience in the pageant field. I don’t have any regrets about the place I won.
Are you happy to have your lovely “fair” skin complexion?
Every girl in the world has her own unique skin colour. That’s what makes them a beautiful individual in their own way. I am happy about my skin colour, but having fair skin doesn’t play a big role, as every skin tone is beautiful. I strongly believe that personality plays a bigger role.
Do you have any plans to try new avenues such as acting or singing?
I love to try new things in life. It will test my limits and also give me an opportunity to show my talent. During the pageant, I looked up to Jacqueline Fernandez who is doing so well in Bollywood right now. Looking at her success and where she’s come today, I do want to try out acting.
Will you try your luck in any more pageants?
Maybe in another 2 or 3 years, yes I definitely will try again. This experience was such learning curve for so many new things. I meet lovely people. It was really amazing. I wouldn’t mind going through it all again.
Do you believe you were well prepared for the pageant?
I do believe that I was prepared. I was confident. I’m still young as it was my first experience, I did make a few mistakes. But once again I have no regrets.
Since you are a social bee, did your social life improve after the pageant?
The reception I gained was invaluable. I met new people who will help me in my future. Hopefully it will help me with my future and career. It’s up to me to use them for my own benefit.
Share a tip with our readers on looking good?
I just have just a few simple tips which is to drink plenty of water and eat healthy. Many youngsters don’t give priority to plain water, they instead indulge in drinking soft drinks, shakes etc. And even food they like fast food like burgers, fried food. Just need to make it a point to eat healthy. Also, you need to keep fit with some simple everyday exercises.

Aug 23, 2013 at 12:00 am@Hoona, whats wrong with you,thats why I said I am racist, why did you have to include Israel.
Hilarious says:
Aug 23, 2013 at 12:00 amHa ha ... to the Hoona, and anyone who is replying to mr Huyghebaert comment are fools, all you do is watch lifeonline page and to start an argument brilliant plan is working, see Hoona, Gemba, Ikrams will join in and all other wasting their time. what bunch lazy Sri Lankans
Observer says:
Aug 23, 2013 at 12:00 amYou are correct. Skin color does not matter, what matters is a great personality and good brains. Most Sri Lankans are not happy with their own skin color. A person should be happy and feel comfortable in their own skin and the inner beauty will radiate. Good luck in your future ventures!

Aug 23, 2013 at 12:00 amSo father or mother been Belgium means we call everyone is Sri Lanka a Sri Lankan??? wow I am very racists
Hoona says:
Aug 23, 2013 at 12:00 am#Huyghebaert, You Oaf, Any citizen of Sri Lanka is a Sri Lankan. It does apply to any country in the world except Israel. Any Jewish person living anywhere in the world is considered Israeli. Sri Lankan is the nationality of this young lady. But her ethnicity may be different.

Aug 23, 2013 at 12:00 amWhat a beautiful gal, with a captivating SMILE. First I thought she must be from a foreign country. I am really glad Sri Lankan girls are so pretty
Gemba says:
Aug 23, 2013 at 12:00 am# Hilarious. The whole idea of these blogs are for open discussion and to air one's views, if you do not like any of it, then shut your trap and do not read them. Do not try to take the moral high ground
Hoona says:
Aug 23, 2013 at 12:00 am#Hilariious. You are the village idiot who is wasting your time with an asinine comment, while others like Gemba et. al. make constructive comments to keep the blog interesting
Hoona says:
Aug 24, 2013 at 12:00 am@Hilarious: So you have taken it upon yourself to be the arbiter of who is a fool

Aug 24, 2013 at 12:00 amWhat she got is charming bubbling beauty with innocence smile. She is gifted with figure of symmetric curves and curvatures which is artiste's dream of putting into canvas with sensuality.as hallmark.
