Miss Universe Thailand: Contestants from all professions, over 1m70 tall, determined to "take revenge"?

The Miss Universe Thailand 2025 contest is entering a vibrant start-up phase, and in just the first days of announcing the contestants, Thai social networks and international beauty forums have "exploded" with the outstanding beauty and charisma of this year's candidates.

From modern sharp beauty to traditional gentleness, this year's beauties bring a colorful picture, reflecting the new and dynamic spirit of the Thai women's generation.

As a country with a strong beauty industry, Thailand always has high expectations for its representative at Miss Universe. Organizing Miss Universe 2025 at home makes the public even more eager to find a representative who is not only beautiful and attractive but also intelligent, has flexible behavior and solid stage presence.

It is not difficult to see that the quality of this year's contestants has been significantly improved. Most of the candidates have standard body shapes, ideal heights of 1m70 or more, and a confident demeanor when standing in front of the camera. Many faces come from different professions such as models, MCs, actors, media specialists, and even beauties who are graduates of prestigious universities.

A particularly noteworthy point is that many contestants have a "mixed" beauty between many cultures such as Thai - European, Thai - Korean, or Thai - Middle Eastern. This creates a richness in body shape and unique beauty for this year's contest. Many beauty experts believe that this could be the season with the most consistent quality of contestants in the history of Miss Universe Thailand.

Notable: Veena Praveenar Singh. She was born on April 16, 1996 in Chiang Mai, Thailand, to Indian parents. Veena graduated with a double major in Russian and Liberal Arts from Thammasat University, and is fluent in English and Russian.

On the evening of May 10, Veena Praveenar Singh was officially crowned the highest position at the Miss Universe Saraburi 2025 contest, a provincial event within the framework of selecting representatives to participate in Miss Universe Thailand 2025. Immediately after winning, Veena quickly attracted attention from the international beauty fan community.

Veena has a sharp face with a modern beauty that is a blend of Thai and Indian, along with a balanced figure and impressive performance. Not only that, the beauty queen also has good communication skills, so she is considered one of the potential candidates for this year's competition.

This is the fourth time the beauty has tried her hand at the Miss Universe Thailand pageant, showing her determination to win the crown. For those who don't know, she has a not-so-good relationship with Anntonia Porsild - 1st Runner-up Miss Universe 2023.

The controversy started when Veena Praveenar Singh unfollowed Anntonia Porsild on Instagram. This incident attracted a lot of attention because both of them attended Miss Universe Thailand 2023, where Anntonia was crowned and Veena was the second runner-up. There were many speculations about why Veena unfollowed Anntonia.

Some people think that the 1996-born beauty queen wants to please Nawat Itsaragrisil - the new president of Miss Universe Thailand (who is also the head of Miss Grand International), because he does not want to be associated with the old copyright holder, TPN Global. Veena Praveenar Singh is also said to have ended her working relationship with the old team to focus on the Miss Universe Thailand 2025 contest.

As for Anntonia Porsild, when asked by the media about this, she said that Veena did it "to get the crown". This statement caused Anntonia to be heavily criticized by Veena's fans, who considered her "ungraceful" and "heartless", affecting Veena's spirit while she was competing. However, there were also opinions defending Anntonia and saying that Veena was "lacking in intelligence" for unfollowing her first.

Previously, Veena Praveenar Singh was also criticized for not showing support for Anntonia Porsild when she represented Thailand at Miss Universe 2023. After the Miss Universe 2023 final, Anntonia only won the 1st runner-up position, Veena posted on her personal Instagram with the caption "The 3rd crown belongs to Veena only", and congratulated Miss Universe 2023 Sheynnis Palacios without mentioning her compatriot. This action caused her to be criticized by Thai beauty fans for not showing the spirit of "national colors".
