When I think of bridesmaids countries Colombia is always the first that comes to mind. They seem to send out beautiful candidates but always miss the mark. Usually it seems that the Q&A rounds are their weak points. I’m surprised with Luxembourg never placing since they are such a wealthy nation. I would’ve imagined they have the resources to properly prepare their representatives 🤷🏻‍♀️

Actually, Luxembourg did place in pageants, they placed in Miss International twice (1975 and 1993) and Miss Supranational once (2013), but the thing is, Luxembourg never cared about beauty pageant whatsoever, they could afford to go to any international pageant but they couldn't care less if they ever placed in one, another thing is that most Europpean countries don't really care about beauty pageant anymore so when Luxembourg's neighbors don't give a damn about it they decided to do the same and stop caring about beauty pageant, though they're still sending delagates to Miss World.

Thank you for putting this all together. The statistics are indeed very interesting! In terms of performance at the international level, what do you think are the main factors as to why certain countries' representatives never seem to place? Do you think that in some cases it might be political in nature? Or do you think that those contestants might not have the same level of coaching/polish as the pageant powerhouse nations?

@PageantNerd

Жыл бұрын

Thanks very much! So glad you enjoyed all the stats 😊 To answer your questions, I think it’s likely a combination of everything you suggest. For anyone to claim there isn’t politics or favouritism in international pageants I think is foolish. For a multitude of reasons, certain countries may be favoured over others - whether it’s due to where the pageant is held, what country the organisation is based in, a country’s history in the pageant, the popularity of pageantry in a certain country - I think they all have a role to play. But most certainly some countries prepare their queens better than others, and they should be rewarded for those efforts - not purely because of those efforts, however. The queen should still deserve her spot and perform well nonetheless.

I would like that Mexico wins Miss Earth some day but has only won an element title twice. Well, I hope Mexico wins MGI soon because it really deserved it in 2019.

Philippines is unlucky on the Miss World with only 1 crown in 2013. In 1973, Philippines placed 1st Runner Up but crown was not awarded for unknown reason after the dethrone of the 1973 Miss World from USA.

I think it's not so much a case of being unlucky for many of these countries but it's because pageants aren't taken as seriously there and they think it's enough to be beautiful, so their entrants don't prepare enough for the all important interviews.

An interesting video might be on stats on Yugoslavia’s placement in Miss Universe and other alpha pageants when they competed as unified Yugoslavia. Then post fall of Yugoslavia they competed as separate republics like Croatia, Slovenia, Kosovo, Bosnia-Herzegovina, Serbia and Montenegro? And I also remember Bosnia and Herzegovina winning Miss Earth once? Another interesting topic would be USSR placements before former member nations competed separately, like Russia, Estonia, Lithuania, Latvia, Kazakstan, and so on; and how they fared as separate nations

❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

Two fun facts a propos of Denmark's two times 1986 1st runner-up Pia Rosenberg Larsen: that year's Danish (unplaced) representative at Miss Universe was future supermodel Helena Christensen and Pia's son Marcus Rosenberg Jorgensen was top 10 at Mister Supranational 2016.

As a proud Greek-America, I would like to see another Miss Greece become Miss Universe as the last one from Greece to win since 1964.

Colombia needs more Miss Universe

You can not say runner up again as far are some countries are concerned. Every year different contestants

In today's pageantry. The Miss World's popularity and relevance begin to dwindled. In recent years, they often delayed and cancelled now their pageant. They no longer have an ability to stage a competition annually. It's not a surprise If we heard someday in the news that this pageant was no longer owned by Julia Morley.

I don't honestly know why Brazil wastes time taking part in these pageants... Seriously! When we won the 2nd Miss Universe crown, most powerhouses (Venezuela, Puerto Rico, Philippines had won NONE). Time has passed, they've won several titles and we're left just clapping. When Miss Earth was created, we won it twice. No one had won it more than us. Again, time passed, we never won it again and other countries have overtaken us. In 2023, a brand new pageant was created - Miss Charm - and guess what: Brazil won it! Do you want to bet that time will pass and we'll win nothing again? 🙂 In Miss Universe''s case, there seems to be a slight ''non-liking'' towards us. In 1993, people in Mexico were in awe when Leila Schuster wore a brilliant white dress. Everyone thought she would win... She didn't even make it to the top 5. In 2017, Raissa Santana was considered by every pageant blogger I read the frontrunner alongside France's candidate. They were always top 2, with Raissa usually getting the #1 spot on the prediction lists. One blogger said something at the time that struck with me: "Raíssa stands out and is being considered the name to beat. She's got such an overwhelming lead on so many people's list that I have a terrifying feeling that something is going to happen and she won't win''... I guess the guy was a psychic. She was flawless but had to do the swimsuit part of the competition alongside the obese Miss Canada. The difference was startling. That said, Leila Lopes (angolan miss universe, crowned in Brazil!) and Perez Hilton both said that CANADA had stood out... Sorry, but no... It was the beginning of wokeness showing up at the pageants... WHat happened? Gorgeous Raíssa and her killer body didn't make it to the top 9. Canada did. Oh, and France won. At least 1 top 2 prediction was correct. So, honestly, why waste time taking part in these competitions? I honestly don't know. Sorry for the venting! 🙂
