A good choice :=p

I don't know how much April has improved from last year, but she is a very pretty girl. She lacked charisma and speaking ability from what I can remember, but I'm not sure how much Miss World takes that into account. Being that she's not a national titleholder I doubt she will win and don't see her equaling Ophély either, but I'd say she's a for-sure placement.

I agree, it's a good choice, although I would have preferred Lara, maybe. I love both so no matter what, I would have been happy. lol

From what I remember, her stage presence is okay, not great but not bad either, and that doesn't matter that much at Miss World anyway. On the other hand, her oral skills leave a little to be desired, but it is not catastrophic either. She has had several media exposure thanks to her title of first runner-up and her trial (against the Islamist individuals who had pronounced anti-Semitic insults against her on the internet) so I hope it will be beneficial for Miss World. The problem is not that she expresses herself badly, it is that she seems to lack a little self-confidence, she speaks well but the tone is not confident.

I also think she won't win, Miss World never crowns the national runners-up but I really think she can reach the Top 5 if she's lucky. She seems to be a very kind and gentle person. Also, her face is really unique, I think it will please... And all the hatred she took in the face will surely please Morley who will want to put a bitchslap to her detractors. lol

She is stunning but is this official? I'm asking because sources had said that MWO had rejected her entry before.

She was announced as Miss World France by her state committee director in the presence of the Miss France leadership tonight. Don't know why she would have been rejected since Miss France runners-up often go to Miss World.

On what grounds would April be disqualified? I would be curious to know, especially since we are used to sending our runners-up to Miss World and we are not the only country to do that. In addition, it's not as if we had a choice, Amandine must crown her successor in December during Miss World, Miss World Org knows how important it is for Miss France Org and French people. Finally, if it were not official, I would not have created this thread, I'm not used to telling lies, eh. It is Estelle Sabathier herself who announced this this evening during the election of Miss Côte d'Azur 2021 and Estelle is Communication Manager at Miss France. :)>-

Not surprised, since she's Amandine's 1st runner-up! As far as I know, she already told her fans via an Instagram video that she already wanted to go to Miss World (given that Amandine wanted to go to Miss Universe) months ago, and finally, it's confirmed. Congratulations! I wish her the best of luck in Miss World.
No more bashers in 2022, please.

I agree with Thomas, I'm pretty sure the trial she went through (she was the one suing haters/antisemists on social media) will be of good use, she might even advocate on that for her BWAP. The fact that Sylvie attended the trial with her was very strong too.
As far as I know, she's been the most exposed 1st runner-up in decades. She went to Fort-Boyard alone, that is a huge thing, usely only the current Miss France goes (former ones don't count, they all come back again at it at some point, but runner-ups, that's a new thing).

Strategically speaking as a ND I would have sent April to Miss Universe in Israel this year. Not only is she half Israeli and Miss Universe caliber but her anti Sémitism backstory could not be anymore perfect for this occasion. She would have been a huge favorite for the Miss Universe crown.

And I would have convinced Clémence to do MW instead, since Julia likes National winners. It’s a win win.

Yeah April at an Israeli Miss Universe would have been a statement but if Miss France shafted a former titleholder to prioritize a runner-up just to make a statement then I think that wouldn't have been okay.

I’m sure a lot of crown hungry countries would have seized this golden chance.

And since Julia prefers National winners it’s a win win situation.

Yeah but France isn't like that. International titles aren't the goal, strong national titleholders are.

Clemence’s dream is to compete at Miss Universe. She waited 2 years for this opportunity. There is no way you can convince her to switch to MW.

As far as I know, she's been the most exposed 1st runner-up in decades. She went to Fort-Boyard alone, that is a huge thing, usely only the current Miss France goes (former ones don't count, they all come back again at it at some point, but runner-ups, that's a new thing).


Strategically speaking as a ND I would have sent April to Miss Universe in Israel this year. Not only is she half Israeli and Miss Universe caliber but her anti Sémitism backstory could not be anymore perfect for this occasion. She would have been a huge favorite for the Miss Universe crown.

And I would have convinced Clémence to do MW instead, since Julia likes National winners. It’s a win win.


Clemence’s dream is to compete at Miss Universe. She waited 2 years for this opportunity. There is no way you can convince her to switch to MW.


It’s not like MW is a minor pageant. I feel like a ND should have the right to switch their international reps sometimes based on strategy. This of course would have been inappropriate if Clémence was the winner of a “Miss Universe France” title. Which isn’t the case here.

I agree with Jonathan. Of course, Miss World is not a minor contest at all but Miss Universe is more popular than Miss World in France and young women prefer to compete in Miss Universe rather than Miss World. We can't push Clémence to go compete in Miss World if she doesn't really want to, I even think that it would be counterproductive to do that because Clémence would have no motivation at Miss World and, without motivation, she would have a 99% chance of clapping at Miss World. Besides, I don't think Morley will crown two black Caribbean women in a row.

Clemence is a Miss Universe prototype. While the sweetness and the elegance of April are suited for Miss World.

To be honest, I think directors should listen to their contestants on where they will go. Sure, April might be a good fit for Miss Universe given that her Israeli/Jewish heritage might help, but Clemence, being the winner of Miss France herself, should definitely live her dream to go to Miss Universe, since that is what she wants. Sending a contestant to a pageant that they do not even want to go to might even harm the chances of the country to even place at such pageant. Plus, April's story on dealing with antisemitism in France would definitely be a story that can be featured well in the Beauty With A Purpose advocacy that Miss World has always enshrined.
No more bashers in 2022, please.

Also, watch Dani Walker's video to know more on how bashers can kill with their words.

MWO always prefer winners of a national pageant than runner ups. Mama julya doesnt like crossovers or runner ups. MUO doesnt have this issue.
April is a stunner. She might place in top 30 or top 10 but crown, 0 chance :)>-

MUO hasn't crowned any runner-up either so we always say Morley doesn't crown runners-up but she isn't the only one.

I am saying this every year, but I think the MFO would get more recognition from the MWO if they could announce and promote their MWF choice sooner during the year. We could even go farther and hold and actual crowning of the appointed girl.

Imagine the impact if April had attended the trial as Miss World France?

The choosen girl should advocate sooner during her year. Aurore could do it and see the result, same goes with Ophely (although her advocacy was going on for a long time even before her Miss France 1st runner-up time).

This, should be an interesting topic for Mrs Laroche-Joubert ;) She wants us to hear what the girls have to say, well here goes your chance.
