Sunday saw the first staging of the Mr and Teen Universe International Jamaica pageant, hosted in Kingston, Jamaica, where 10 young men between the ages of 16 and 30 competed for the chance to represent the island against dozens of men from across the world in Panama later this year.
The pageant was patronised by members of the local pageant community, including contestants in the upcoming Miss Universe Jamaica pageants and Miss Jamaica Festival Queen 2025 Brithney Clarke, who also hosted. Also in attendance was Mr Universe International 2025 Brayan Mendoza, a Venezuelan native, who served as judge for the evening.
At the end of the evening, it was Rajae Graham, a 26-year-old corporate professional from Manchester, who walked away with the inaugural Mr Universe International Jamaica 2026 title. Sharing some words with the Zee post-crowning, he spoke of his immediate feelings after winning and some of his goals for his 1-year reign.
Mr Teen Universe International 2026 Raheim Edwards, currently a UWI student, will follow in the footsteps of Bradley Clarke, the 2025 title holder who came second internationally and walked away with the title of Mr Teen Tourism.
