A BEAMING Zhang Zi Lin was busy plotting her travels round the globe after the Chinese beauty wowed the home crowd to become China's first-ever Miss World.
The statuesque 23-year-old pipped her rival finalists from Angola and Mexico to take the crown on at the 57th edition of the beauty pageant – which organisers said was watched by a global television audience of two billion people.
The model-thin Zhang, who nevertheless says her favourite foods are chocolate and ice cream, was the tallest of the 106 contestants at 182cm – and was standing even taller after Saturday's win.
“I'm the first Chinese to win the title and more importantly I won in my own country,” said Zhang, resplendent in a sparkling, pale pink dress as she addressed the media on her first full day on the job as Miss World 2007.
