Over 100 foreign beauties to vie for Miss Earth 2023 title in Vietnam
VOV.VN - More than 100 beauties from across the world are set to arrive in Vietnam for the upcoming Miss Earth 2023 pageant which will be held in Ho Chi Minh City this December.
The contestants will compete in several segments, such as the national costume competition with an outfit made from recycled, environmentally-friendly materials; a swimsuit competition; and a talent contest, among others.
The pageant will be mainly held in Ho Chi Minh City, while sidelines activities will be carried out in nearby localities such as Dong Nai and Ba Ria-Vung Tau, said Truong Ngoc Anh, president of Miss Earth Vietnam 2023.
The final night is scheduled to take place in the southern city on December 22, during which the winners of Miss Earth, Miss Earth Air, Miss Earth Water, and Miss Earth Fire will be announced.
To popularise the beauty pageant, the organising board has released a video clip carrying a message of “Unique Bonds - One Planet”. Notably, the clip features Miss Earth 2023 President Ngoc Anh, Miss Earth 2022 Mina Sue Choi, and Miss Earth Fire 2022 Andrea Aguilera wearing Ao Dai and Non La (conical hat), as well as posing with lotus flowers.
This is the second time that Vietnam has played host to this global pageant, following the 2010 edition.
Miss Earth Vietnam 2023 Do Thi Lan Anh will then represent Vietnam at the contest.
Miss Earth was originally launched in 2001 by Carousel Productions of the Philippines. Along with Miss World, Miss Universe, and Miss International, the contest advocates for environmental awareness, conservation, and social responsibility.
Miss Earth is the fourth largest international beauty pageant in the world and is highly appreciated by the media for its scale, prestige, and humanistic message.
The contest aims to find ambassadors with the responsibility of calling for the protection of the living environment in the world.
