Congrats, Nicole Colbert, 2008 Miss Indian World!

We are so excited to see an Alaskan win this year. She is Yupik Eskimo, Nichole Colbert of Southwest Alaska. Congratulations from all your friends in Fairbanks, Alaska:)

I saw her get her title on the GON website feed - she's a beautiful ambassador for her people and her state. Congrats!

That is so awesome! It's always so nice to see a fellow Alaskan represent all tribes. I'm excited and look forward to see her at Red Earth.

It looks like she won possibly 3 categories of the competition in addition to the title.

On the live feed she picked up Miss Congeniality, Best Essay and Most Tickets Sold. But then later they said they made a mistake and someone else may have won the Best Essay contest? But it doesnt' matter, she is the new MIW!! Congrats!


Also a BIG shout out to Lena Nells!!! I always got your back, girl!!!

At last summer's World Eskimo-Indian Olympics Nicole won: most traditional, miss congeniality, most talented and of course MISS WEIO 2007. She really is a nice young woman, who knows her stuff.
