Daria Zeleneva will not have an easy ride at Miss Earth 2015.  There are many girls who are very competitive and have a good shot at Miss Earth 2015 title.  Recently Estefania Muñoz was chosen as Miss Earth Colombia 2015.  With her stunning looks, she is definitely one of the big favorites at the moment.  Miss Earth Philippines Angelia Ong is also a very strong delegate.  With a lean body and lots of charm, this girl can get a back-to-back for Philippines at Miss Earth this year.  Miss South Sudan Agot Deng Jogaak is one of the strong black delegates this year.  The big favourite for Miss Universe Thailand 2015 who finished as 1st runner-up, Chavika Watrsang will be Thailand’s bet at Miss Earth.  It just seems improbable to keep her out of Top 8!  United States is eyeing their first Miss Earth title this year with a very strong delegate by the name Brittany Ann Payne.  For Daria Zeleneva, the biggest competitor from Europe at the moment may be Miss England Katrina Kendall.  The home-delegate Sophie Totzauer of Austria will also put her best for the crown.

Daria Zeleneva would be the comeback contestant for Crimea in Miss Earth pageant.  The last time Crimea sent a contestant was in 2013.  The biggest success that Crimea has enjoyed in Miss Earth was when Miss Earth Crimea 2011 Nina Astrakhantseva made it to the Top 8 of Miss Earth 2011, that was won by Miss Earth Ecuador 2011 Olga Alava in Quezon city, Philippines.  Like Crimea, other countries that are returning this year to Miss Earth are Argentina, Aruba, Bahamas, Barbados, Belize, Costa Rica, Cuba, Greece, Guadeloupe, Honduras, Ireland, Malta, Norway, Rwanda, Serbia, South Sudan, Trinidad & Tobago, Turkey, Uganda, Uruguay, Vietnam and Wales.  As of now, 123 delegates are expected in the pageant.
