Jenaae Jackson, recipient of the Best Figure award in the Miss Jamaica World 2013 contest, says she has no hard feelings towards Dr Dayton Campbell, the member of parliament for North West St Ann, who made an unflattering comment about her on the social networking website, Twitter.

Right now there are many Jamaicans who are struggling to put food on the table thanks to rising costs etc, but instead of focusing on the important issues that affect’s the citizens this fool chooses to spend his days tweeting nonsense.
And to the Miss Jamaica World organisers… ‘Best Figure Award’ … REALLY?? I can’t…

Maybe he was saying that people should be focusing on the economy and not some beauty contestant’s figure. Ask him about the economy instead. It’s obvious her she is in good shape but what good is it for all?
He was trying to be clever rather than offensive, or sarcastic or whatever.
“Maybe he was saying that people should be focusing on the economy and not some beauty contestant’s figure.”
No believe me he wasn’t saying that. He is part of the reason why the Jamaican economy is in turmoil, like many politicians are down there.
I trust he remained saying that persons should be focusing on both the economy but not such beauty contestant’s shape..
