I am a Miss Universe Fan! Like allof us here, what do you think are the strong and weak points that the new management can look into
TRUMP MISS UNIVERSE:
Good:
1. Candidates are really pretty and modelesque
2. Fashionable approach on photos - inclusion of Fadil
3. Trump knows how to put the pageant on the headlines
Bad:
1. Candidates are your stereotypical beauty queens
2. focus too much on scandals
IMG MISS UNIVERSE
Good:
1. Pageant is evolving
2. Spectacular show - 2017 edition. It was a cut above the rest
3. Focus is more on the coronation night. It looks very expensive
4. Maximizes the use of social media
Bad:
1. Minimal prepageant coverage
I personally like how IMG is handling Miss Universe. It is making the contest more relevant and appealing to a market but right now it is still undergoing its birth pains and I feel the constant change will benefit the contest in the long run.
i hope this is true too:
Miss Universe sounds strong for the month of September they want the edition to return between the months of June-September. IMG senior managers say that the first 3 years was to adapt and they have already signed contracts with several commercial brands, apparently they are thinking about changing things and the Miss USA and Miss Teen USA winners will be living in the New York department while Miss Universe will live in a kind of "Mansion". They say that they listen to their "fans" because they made changes that they themselves asked for such as taking swimsuit / evening gown outfits in groups, bringing the Mikimoto Crown back, among other things. From the last edition they say that there was a lot of disagreement and blame the venue for the problems in the preliminary. The management team (in charge of closing contracts and getting Miss Universe promoted) was disengaged in its entirety 3 weeks ago and a new team was hired. Those who were now in charge with IMG close deals with very important brands and with a lot of $$$. One of the brands is an airline and hotel network and they want Miss Universe to travel on average to 20 countries, they also say that the stage will be renewed and it will be something spectacular.
