The Miss Universe 2025 contest is heating up as beauties from around the world have flocked to Thailand, considered "the most fierce beauty contest on the planet".
The host country's representative attracted attention when releasing a new photo set in a gold strapless dress, showing off her charming demeanor and strong support from her home audience and Mr. Nawat - who is in charge of running the organization. However, the media spotlight was suddenly focused on the Vietnamese representative - Huong Giang.
As soon as she left for Thailand, Huong Giang was warmly welcomed by her domestic fans at the airport. As soon as she arrived in the Land of the Golden Temple, she quickly scored points when she changed her style, wearing an elegant and sophisticated black and white outfit. The shirt was stylized from the traditional Thai costume, and in her hand she held a wreath bearing the national symbol. This action was praised by Thai and international audiences, seen as a gentle but respectful condolence when the neighboring country was in national mourning.
Amidst the media storm caused by Huong Giang, President of Miss Universe Vietnam - Mr. Valentin Tran - exclusively shared the reason why the Organizing Committee decided to handpick Huong Giang to become Vietnam's representative at Miss Universe 2025.
According to Mr. Valentin, the organizing committee originally planned to hold a domestic contest to select the official representative, with all preparations being carried out for 6 months. However, due to objective reasons, the organization license was delayed, making it impossible to implement the plan as planned. "Although the contest is not held domestically, the goal and criteria for selecting international contestants remain unchanged. We hope to find a worthy girl who will bring the best results for Vietnamese beauty," he said.
The decision to choose Huong Giang was considered by Mr. Valentin as a historic milestone for Vietnamese beauty: "She is the first transgender person in Asia to compete in Miss Universe. The values that Miss Universe aims for are very similar to the journey that Huong Giang has built over the past 10 years." He also affirmed that before the announcement, the organization worked directly with Miss Universe International and the Vietnamese Department of Culture to ensure full legal documents, there was no "ban" or problem.
When asked about the selection criteria, he said the organizers considered many names but Huong Giang was the one who was most highly appreciated. "She has strong media influence, is smart, has a story and positive energy. What Huong Giang has done for more than a decade is the community project that she will bring to Miss Universe - we do not need to create anything new."
When asked about expected results, Mr. Valentin said: "I do not compare Huong Giang and Ky Duyen - who reached the Top 30 last year. But certainly, when investing in the competition, everyone hopes for better results. I hope Huong Giang can enter the Top 5."
Regarding the controversy surrounding Huong Giang's past, he affirmed: "No one is perfect. It is important that we look at her positive side and her potential to inspire. Miss Universe is not only a beauty pageant but also an opportunity to tell the world that Vietnam is an open country, respecting women and gender diversity."
In response to rumors of "secret deals" or "borrowing the media" to smooth over the decision to not hold a domestic contest, Mr. Valentin denied: "Absolutely not. This decision does not come from any relationship or arrangement. Huong Giang was chosen because of her own ability and story."
He also revealed that since April, the Organizing Committee has prepared all plans to organize Miss Universe Vietnam in the country, but the final result was not as expected. "We are sorry, but that does not mean we choose a representative carelessly. When everything is done properly and transparently, we are completely confident in our choice."
With the strong support of Vietnamese audiences, along with her stage experience, communication skills and courage, Huong Giang is becoming one of the most notable contestants of Miss Universe 2025. She brings a message of confidence, courage and gender equality - something that this year's contest especially emphasizes.
Huong Giang sent her profile photo to Miss Universe, crushed her opponent, and immediately entered the Top 13.
