Withdrawals
Liberia's entry to Miss World 2010 has been removed from the official Miss World website due to undisclosed reasons. It is very possible that Liberia will not compete in Miss World 2010 as Miss Liberia pageant is not scheduled to be held this year.[2]
Swaziland will not compete in Miss World 2010 as the contest has been rescheduled to October. On the other hand, Miss Swaziland committee is fighting a legal battle with Swaziland National Culture and Arts Council over the ban on beauty pageants imposed earlier this year.
