Miss World 2024 Finals

One day before the final, the organizers announced that Vietnamese contestant Mai Phuong had made it into the top 40 of Miss World thanks to winning the "Multimedia Challenge," voted on by the audience. The Multimedia Challenge began before the competition in February, where contestants demonstrated their personal influence across various social media platforms.

In the early stages, Mai Phuong attracted attention from the media and international beauty websites. However, the beauty queen caused concern among viewers when she repeatedly failed important preliminary rounds and experienced health problems. Mai Phuong said she was not discouraged and maintained good energy.

The winner, whose full name is Huynh Nguyen Mai Phuong, is 24 years old and was crowned Miss World Vietnam 2022, receiving widespread support from the audience. She is 1.7m tall, with measurements of 82-63-92 cm, an IELTS score of 8.0, and is currently studying at the University of Social Sciences and Humanities in Ho Chi Minh City. The beauty queen traveled to India on February 17th after more than a year of preparation, longer than previous Vietnamese contestants due to the competition's multiple postponements and location changes.

Besides Mai Phuong, 17 other beauties have been confirmed to automatically advance to the top 40 thanks to winning the preliminary competitions, including: Martinique (winner of Top Model), Croatia (Miss Sport ), Botswana, England, Lebanon, Nigeria, Zimbabwe (Head to Head Challenge), Tunisia (Miss Talent), Indonesia, Nepal, Turkey, Czech Republic, Ukraine, Tanzania, Uganda, Brazil, Trinidad & Tobago (Miss Charity). The final top 40 results will be announced at the grand finale.
