Huong Giang is suspected of having paperwork problems, Luong Thuy Linh took her place to compete in MU?

The news that Huong Giang was announced as Vietnam's representative at Miss Universe 2025 has caused a stir on social media in recent days.

The fact that a transgender beauty queen takes on such a big responsibility not only attracts media attention but also raises many questions related to legal aspects and regulations for licensing international competitions.

After the announcement, rumors spread that Huong Giang had not been officially licensed by the authorities, leading to the possibility that she would not be able to participate in Miss Universe.

Many international beauty sites such as Missosology also expressed doubts about whether Huong Giang's legal documents are valid, especially regarding the gender on her passport and identity documents.

At the same time, Miss Luong Thuy Linh suddenly posted a series of new photos with the status "Road to...".

Not stopping there, Ms. Pham Kim Dung also shared a private message from Luong Thuy Linh with the content: "Mom, I've thought about it. I don't want to stop." This made netizens question whether Luong Thuy Linh was the one chosen to replace Huong Giang at the last minute?

Faced with the wave of rumors, fans are divided into two opinions. One side believes that with the prestige of the copyright holder of Miss Universe Vietnam, the announcement of the national representative must be done after completing all necessary legal procedures.

The other side believes that, in the context of Miss Universe's increasingly expanding criteria, transgender participation needs to be transparent in terms of documents to avoid future controversies.

According to current regulations, individuals who go abroad to compete in beauty pageants or model contests must be confirmed in writing by the cultural management agency, and must also ensure the conditions of personal identity, background, and an official invitation from the international organization. Therefore, the big question is whether Huong Giang has been granted this confirmation document or not.

Amidst the rumors, on Facebook, Huong Giang posted a video of herself diligently working out with her personal trainer, along with the caption: "Sprint stage, focus all your energy." This move is seen as an implicit affirmation that she is still keeping her spirit strong and preparing carefully for Miss Universe.

Meanwhile, the information about Luong Thuy Linh replacing her was denied by her. The beauty queen said she has absolutely no plans to compete internationally this year and affirmed that the rumor was a misunderstanding.

A representative of the Miss Universe Vietnam organizing committee also said that there will be an official response to all public inquiries during the event held at the end of October.

Mr. Valentin Tran said that Huong Giang is preparing everything to be ready to compete at Miss Universe 2025. Regarding the professional ability and experience of this representative, Mr. Valentin Tran is not worried, even affirming: "My goal is to find the strongest candidate to go to Bangkok to compete.

Since I took over the copyright and organized Miss Universe Vietnam, I have always set the goal that Vietnam will have the highest results in the international competition. I am very happy to have chosen Huong Giang."

From 2023, the Miss Universe contest will make a breakthrough by allowing married women, mothers and transgender women to register and compete equally with any other contestants.

That means Huong Giang's presence does not go against the rules of this international competition, but on the contrary, is in line with the spirit of innovation, diversity and openness that Miss Universe is pursuing.
