BIOGRAPHY:

Desiree Van den Berg was crowned Miss Nederland 2010 or Miss Netherlands 2010 at the Finale held yesterday at the Theatre De Efteling. Desiree is the 23 year old beauty from Santpoortis and stands 1.76m tall. She will represent Netherlands both in Miss World 2010 in China later this year and Miss Universe 2010 in Las Vegas this August.

She was named “Desiree” by her parents because of their ‘desire’ of having a baby (“Desiree is a French name which means “desire”). She started walking when she was 1 year old and started speaking at 1 and a half year old. She couldn’t pronounced her name properly and always called herself “Jeejee.” When she was 3 years old, their family was invited in a house party (house is said to be adjoined with Loosdrecht Lakes). She was amazed and jumped in the water with her clothes on. She thought she could swim but actually she cannot. The most beautiful woman in Netherlands was saved by an eleven year-old boy and without the help of that boy she’s gone forever.

Desiree was born in Santpoort-Noord, a Dutch province of North Holland. She did a lot of sports like swimming, tennis, hockey, and ballet. She’s fond of travelling. When she was young, their family went to Israel where she was almost choked by the fleshy fruit she ate.

She spent her three years of high school at Ichthus College in Driehuis and finished highschool in the United States because her family moved to New Jersey in 2002. She went back to Netherlands in 2005 because she wanted to take medicine course at University of Amsterdam. She wanted to be a doctor someday. She wanted to help people in Africa and she wanted to stay there for at least a year.

Aside from the Miss Universe 2010 pageant, Desiree will also compete for the 2010 Miss World title on October and 2010 Miss Earth title on December.
