The actress was spotted dancing through the streets of the island while her vibrant costume was filling her surroundings with colours. She was on the road with Just 4 Fun Carnival Band, who won several titles during the Parade of the Bands.

Chloe Bailey, who returned to the carnival for a 2nd consecutive year lit up the roads with her energetic performance. The American singer was the center of the attraction as she joined other revellers on the streets. She rocked the carnival in stunning bejeweled costumes with legends carnival band and was the undisputed queen of the carnival.

She danced her way down the parade, having the time of her life, showcasing that the carnival is bigger than just dancing and feathers and having a good time, it is a celebration of freedom from slavery, emancipation and all of these things are attached to why people are celebrating. 

So, what looks like just a good old time and a bunch of adult beverages is actually very deep rooted to history, liberation, emancipation, and of course, a good old time.

This event first happened in 1947, just after World War II. Like other carnival events around the Caribbean, the carnival in Saint Lucia is inspired by an ancient pagan festival rooted in ancient Egypt, Greece, and Rome.
