Miss Universe: Vietnam has 1 less strong opponent, but you have to be wary of this girl!

The Miss Universe 2024 race is hotter than ever as potential candidates are gradually revealed. Surprisingly, New Zealand's representative Franki Russell lost the right to participate in the contest due to a conflict between the organizers and the copyright holder.

Accordingly, on July 30, Yugen PR company - the copyright holder of Miss Universe in New Zealand issued a notice that they had been withdrawn by the Miss Universe organization.

"Due to our team's inability to comply with the principles set forth by the Miss Universe organization, we have decided to relinquish the copyright of Miss Universe New Zealand for the 2024 season," the statement read.

Shortly afterwards, Franki Russell - Miss Universe New Zealand 2024 deleted the title on her personal page with more than 520,000 followers. The incident surprised the public and was hotly discussed on the beauty forum. Many people expressed regret when Franki lost the right to compete. Because she is considered one of the outstanding contestants of this season.

Franki Russell is 29 years old, is a hybrid of 2 New Zealand and Filipino b.lood. She is a famous actress in the Philippines, has participated in the reality TV show Pinoy Big Brother and acted in many movies. Her most recent project is "Pabuya", starring alongside her ex-boyfriend Diego Loyzaga.

Franki Russell is also known as an influential beauty on social networks with an Instagram profile with more than 520,000 followers. She builds a modern and charming image on social networks.

Remember in March, Miss Universe New Zealand held a press conference to announce Franki Russell as the national representative at Miss Universe 2024. Previously, the country had vacated a vacant seat at Miss Universe for 4 consecutive years.

Commenting on Franki Russell, the president of Miss Universe New Zealand said: "Recognized as a star and reality TV actress in the Philippines, the beauty of New Zealand-Filipino descent wishes to leverage her platform to address the common concern of young people in New Zealand and around the world - online bullying."

As for Franki Russell, she shared after being appointed: "I've been focusing more on my acting career over the past few years. I think the opportunity is not prepared. And now I know why it led me to this moment. Miss Universe New Zealand is my destiny."

In 2023, Dubai businessman Josh Yugen bought the rights to Miss Universe New Zealand. He is the CEO of Yugen Events Group. Josh is also the copyright holder of Miss Universe in Bahrain and Pakistan.

The last time New Zealand competed in Miss Universe was in 2019. The representative of this country at that year's contest was the beauty Diamond Langi but did not win any achievements.

Although Franki Russell is absent from the "race" to win the Miss Universe crown this season, there is still another equally formidable candidate, that is the representative of Canada - Ashley Callingbull.

Ashley is 34 years old, whose parents are First Nations Aboriginal people living in this country. She is currently a host for the National Hockey League, the National Tennis Federation, and the Canadian Soccer Federation.
