Victoria’s Miss Universe finalists are ready to shine in the state final on Sunday.

Three of our top beauties hoping to contend for the national crown include Annalise Dalins, 21, model partner of Collingwood star Josh Daicos; Sally Kurzke, 26, finance worker and Georgia Caine, 23, model, aspiring singer and law student.

“I’ve loved it so far,’’ Dalins said.

“There’s been so many functions, we’ve made so many friends and it doesn’t feel like we’re competing at all.”

Dalins and Daicos won’t be able to support each other as the final clashes with the Magpies’ blockbuster match against Carlton at the MCG.

“He’s sad to be missing it but I’ll have my family there,’’ she said.

Kurzke has entered the competition for the second time.

“I was in it the year Olivia Rogers won in 2017 and then I went and took some time for myself,’’ she said.

“I was very young mentally and wasn’t ready. Now there’s more I can give to it.”

Caine is the highest charity fundraiser of all the entrants across the country and previously has auditioned on The Voice.

“I started modelling before Covid and signed to Chadwick,’’ she said.

“I sang a Delta song on The Voice and no one turned around but she got up and sang with me. All my worlds are colliding I’m loving it.”

Five Victorians will go through to the national final in September.
