Miss Universe Ghana 2018 launched

Malz Promotions, organizers of the prestigious Miss Universe pageant has officially launched the 2018 edition of the beauty pageant. The launch was held at the La Villa Boutique Hotel in Accra on Thursday, July 5. Present at the launch included Film Producer/Director Shirley Frimpong Manso, who will serve as a judge this year and husband, Ken Attoh.

The pageant, which is in its 26th season this year was taken over by Malz Promotions under the supervision of  Miss Universe Ghana 2004, Menaye Donkor last year. In her second year of organizing the event Menaye expressed her excitement for this year’s pageant.

“As Miss Universe Ghana 2004, a successful entrepreneur, philanthropist and model, I am proud to be part of the Miss Universe Ghana brand and help pave the way for other young Ghanaian women to achieve their goals.” Menaye further added, that Malz Promotions under her watch has rebranded the image of Miss Universe Ghana within a short time and successfully organized a star studded finale during last year’s competition.

This year’s pageant is in collaboration with the Multimedia Group and under the auspices of Ministry of Tourism and the Ghana Tourism Authority. Mr. Santoh Singh, Managing Director of the Multimedia Group speaking at the press launch expressed his delight for partnering with the organization and pushed for the need for Ghanaians to do away with the notion that beautiful women cannot be intelligent.

“It’s time we eradicate the belief that beautiful women cannot be intelligent. We support Miss Universe Ghana for what they stand for and represent and it’s time we empower young women to live their dreams. The plan is to rope in international standards of production to all stages of the pageant, and prospectively encourage a positive vibe about Ghana among governments an investors – particularly those in the tourism industry, which is largely underdeveloped in Ghana”.

Menaye assured guests seated at the launch that this year’s pageant will be bigger and better. Last year’s winner and reigning Queen, Ruth Quarshie  made it to the top 16 at the international stage in November last year, Las Vegas – USA.

Applications are open to Ghanaian women living in Ghana and throughout the diaspora between the ages of 18 and 25 years with a minimum height of 5’8ft with no criminal records, no children or pregnancy and not married. Applicants must also possess a minimum of SHS certificate.

Application form is available on the Miss Universe Ghana website, www.missuniverseghanaorg.com beginning July 6 -August 3, 2018.
