Miss Universe Denmark is a national beauty pageant in Denmark that selects the representative to the Miss Universe. From 2015-2017, Miss Universe Denmark was run by the Face of Denmark organization.
Organization
From 2015 to 2017 The Face of Denmark competition operated as its own production under Anders Hamilton de Voss and his partner John Paul Hamilton de Voss.
Aino Korva, the only Dane to place in the top 5 at Miss Universe, Žaklina Šojić, the last Dane to place in the top 15 at Miss Universe in 2007, are directly involved with the fundamentals of the new "Face of Denmark" competition.[1][2]
History
From 2015 to 2017 The Face of Denmark competition operated as its own production under Anders Hamilton de Voss and his partner John Paul Hamilton de Voss.
Between 1986 and 1995, Bo Andersen handled the Miss Universe Denmark franchise, where such notable Danish icons, who were not Miss Denmark, but competed at Miss Universe, were found, including supermodel Helena Christensen and Danish T.V. personality Maria Hirse.
From 1996 until 2013, Memborg models operated the franchise.[3]
Miss Universe Denmark
Denmark did not compete at Miss Universe in the following years: 1954–57, 1962, 1971, 1974, 1991, 1997–99, 2001–2003, 2009, 2014.
NotesSupermodel Helena Christensen began her career in 1986 as Miss Universe Denmark. In the same year, Pia Rosenberg Larsen won Miss Denmark and competed at Miss International, where she placed as first runner-up. In 1993, T.V. personality and actress Maria Hirse won Miss Universe Denmark, but like Helena Christensen, failed to place at Miss Universe.[4][5] This contest is unrelated to the Miss Denmark pageant.
