Miss Samoa contestants unite to support Litara
The sisterhood formed during the Miss Samoa 2024 pageant is united and backs Miss Samoa Litara Ieremia-Allen's chances of bringing the title back home from the Miss Pacific Islands 2025 in the Solomon Islands.
Her 14 sisters have come together to send words of encouragement. This is what they had to say.
Anastasia Pagostar Maiai – “You are already a winner in so many ways - your grace, wisdom, and strength will shine through in all that you do. Trust in God, your preparation, your heart, and your faith, and know that the path ahead is one of purpose and impact. Keep pressing forward with courage! God bless and all the best uso.”
Rayleen Simati - “With a clear vision and unwavering focus, Litara has demonstrated her determination to succeed. This year’s competition is exceptionally strong, with contestants who are highly accomplished in their respective fields. However, I have no doubt that Litara and the Onomea team have thoroughly prepared for this moment. If there is one thing I know about Litara, it is that she is incredibly determined, and I am confident she will excel.”
Alaimālō Joanna Sulusi Vasa – “From the beginning of our journey in the Miss Samoa pageant, you have always been the gentle, intelligent, and humble young lady. I believe you will do great things at the Miss Pacific Islands pageant. The whole of Samoa is rooting for you, and your pageant sisters. God bless you and the Onomea team, all the best. Go with all the blessings of Samoa.”

As you step forward, we uplift you in prayer, knowing you carry the grace, strength, and beauty of our island. To our Pacific sisters, this platform is more than a competition, it is a mission to honour our identity, values, and to glorify God in all that we do.”
Chantelle Tautunuafatasi - “I hope that you allow those around you to catch a glimpse of the beautiful personality you hold, even your sense of humour, like that time we sang the Samoan national anthem during the Miss Samoa journey.

Teuila Emmy Alofipo – “Stand tall and remember the pride of our culture is always with you. No matter the outcome, you embody the true essence of a tamaitai Samoa, strong and resilient.
