Miss Egypt (2013 – 2021, 2023 – Present) |
Miss Grand Egypt is a national beauty pageant title awarded to Egyptian representatives competing at the Miss Grand International contest. [1] [2] [3] The title was first awarded in 2013 when a Cairo-based pharmacist, Aya Abdallah Ahmed, was assigned by the Miss Grand Egypt licensee, Amal Rezk, to represent Egypt in the inaugural edition of Miss Grand International in Thailand. [4] Amal Rezk is also the director of a national pageant of Miss Egypt, [2] [3] and another international platform, Miss Eco International . [5]
Since the first competition in 2013, Egyptian representatives have never been placed in Miss Grand International. [6] [7] [8] [9] [10]
Egypt joined Miss Grand International for the first time in 2013 and was represented by an appointed representative, Aya Abdallah Ahmed; [4] however, she was unplaced on the international stage held in Thailand. [6] From 2013 to 2021, the right to send Egyptian candidates to compete at Miss Grand International belonged to the director of Miss Egypt pageant, Amal Rezk, [1] [2] [3] and the representatives were either directly hand-picked or determined through such a national contest. [1] [2] [3] [11]
In 2021, one of the Miss Egypt 2021 winners was expected to compete at Miss Grand International 2022 in Indonesia, [12] but no representative was elected, [13] due to the termination of the partnership between Miss Grand International (MGI PLC) and Miss Egypt after the Miss Grand Thailand-affiliated representative, Juthamas Mekseree, who was assigned to compete at the Egypt-based Miss Eco International 2021 which was also managed by Amal Rezk, together with other 8 country representatives were infected by COVID-19 during pageant activities and were left without proper management.
