Miss Universe 2025: H'Hen Nie's copycat competes with Thailand, Vietnam sends Le Hoang Phuong?

Beauty Eve Gilles has been announced as the representative of France at Miss Universe 2025 held in Thailand in November. She has a unique pixie cut and has been criticized for her appearance.

On August 27, the Miss France organization announced that beauty Eve Gilles - Miss France 2024 - has been appointed to represent France at the Miss Universe 2025 pageant held in Thailand in November.

"Eve Gilles will go to Thailand in November to compete and wear the French flag on the international stage," said the Miss France organizers.

The news of Eve Gilles competing in Miss Universe 2025 has received positive reactions from international beauty fans. Many people expressed their belief that Eve Gilles will help France shine in the Miss Universe arena.

Meanwhile, many Vietnamese fans think that Eve Gilles's short, stylish hair and healthy brown skin remind them of H'Hen Nie at the 2018 Miss Universe pageant, also held in Thailand.

"Such a unique beauty", "This short hair and modern, healthy beauty will definitely make a splash at Miss Universe", "She reminds me of H'Hen Niê"... netizens commented.

Eve Gilles was crowned Miss France 2024. With this title, she can choose to compete in Miss Universe, Miss World or focus on her term as Miss France.

Eve Gilles is 22 years old, a student of Mathematics at the University of Lille. She is the only contestant with short hair at the Miss France 2023 pageant. The appearance of a beauty with short hair at the oldest beauty pageant in France has caused controversy.

After the final night, Eve Gilles did not receive support from the home audience. A large number of Twitter users made memes of her, comparing her to cartoon characters to mock the beauty.

Unlike French audiences, social media users in the UK have been full of praise for Eve Gilles. They commented that she has a unique and cinematic beauty.

Eve Gilles, whose parents are from Réunion, an island in the Indian Ocean, represents the Nord-Pas-de-Calais region. She has been outspoken about the need to diversify beauty standards and modernize pageants, which have been criticized for being sexist.

"I want to prove that the pageant and society are developing, and that women's representation is also very diverse. In my opinion, beauty is not limited to hairstyle or body shape," she shared.

Last year, France's representative at Miss Universe in Mexico, Indira Ampiot, made it into the top 30. France has won Miss Universe twice, in 1953 (Christiane Martel) and 2016 (Iris Mittenaere).

It can be said that this year's Miss Universe race is quite exciting. Recently, the representative of Thailand has also appeared, the beauty Veena . She has a lot of experience in domestic beauty contests. She has two bloodlines: Indian and Thai.

Many viewers praised Veena for her sweet and charming beauty. According to Vietnamnet, Veena graduated from the Liberal Arts Department at Thammasat University.

In addition to Thai, the beauty is fluent in English and Russian.

The beauty once said that Miss Universe Thailand 2023 was the last beauty pageant she would participate in. Therefore, when she competed in Miss Universe Thailand 2025, many viewers were surprised.

In June 2021, Veena was proposed to by her boyfriend. She later postponed the wedding because she wanted to compete in Miss Universe Thailand 2023. Before competing in Miss Universe Thailand 2025, the beauty broke up with her boyfriend.

Meanwhile, until now, Vietnam has still left open the identity of the beauty representing Miss Universe this year.

Mr. Valentin Tran - representative of Miss Universe Vietnam organization - wishes to elevate Vietnamese beauty on the world map.

He has a dream that Miss Universe Vietnam will once again reach the pinnacle of Miss Universe achievement like H'Hen Nie did 8 years ago.

Previously, there was information that runner-up Quynh Anh would compete, but according to the new regulations, she would have little chance of going further.

Accordingly, Miss Universe regulations do not accept runners-up to participate, only Misses of countries are allowed to register. Therefore, if Quynh Anh wants to compete in Miss Universe 2025, she will have to return to the Miss Universe Vietnam 2025 race to win the crown.

However, recently, people were stirred up by rumors that Le Hoang Phuong would compete in Miss Universe just because of a photo posted of a dress with a pattern similar to the contest's logo.

Miss Universe 2025 has not yet competed in the pageant but has already been revealed. Vietnam has no representative yet, who will compete?
