Pageant information

The slogan to this year's pageant was "The Soul of Eternal Beauty, Displaying the Features of a Thousand Colours" 「絕美靈魂 流露千色面貌」. Aside from the top 3 placements, Miss Friendship was also awarded. [3] The masters of ceremony this year were Carol Cheng, Lawrence Cheng, and Luisa Maria Leitão. There were two judging panels this year, the Diamond Judging Panel of six male actors and singers, and the Elegant Judging Panel, which consists of twenty past Miss Chinese International Pageant and Miss Hong Kong Pageant contestants. Both judging panels selected the winner and runners-up of the pageant, however, after each round of competition, the top current top 3 rankings from the Elegant Judging Panel were revealed. [1]

With 14 delegates competing, this marks the lowest contestant turnout in the history of the pageant. Contestant number four, Sophia Wu was originally introduced as representing Jiangsu at the initial press conference, but was later changed to representing Nanjing in her profile on the official pageant website. [2] [4] With Cooseman's win, she became Vancouver's seventh Miss Chinese International titleholder.
