I’ve compiled my list of the 10 biggest stories in the beauty pageant world for 2021. Who won, who didn’t, drama over where pageants were held, diversity of contestants and many more!

  1. wow u r actually good looking like mr world contestant. I hope you will talk more about pageants especially big 4 and alpha pageants. Goodluck in your pageant youtube channel. But for me the biggest pageant storyline would be miss universe being held in israel and also miss world sudden cancel bcs of covid outbreak. We dont talk about cheap rehearsed made drama of miss gross international.

  2. You always do such good research. Please do a PhD in Pageantry and take over directorship at one of these pageant organizations. I also feel that you should have highlighted Miss Singapore .Nandita Banna , who made into TOP 16 MU 2021. 34 years since the last time Singapore made it .

  3. With regards of being openly gay/lesbian or bisexual is absolutely OK,. As long as they're not artificial..
    Transwomen have their own pageant already and natural born women also have too. And that's already inclusive.. some transwomen misinterpreted the word "Inclusivity" which they protest to be include in a natural born women pageant. Which is also asking for too much already, interfering the pageant of natural born women..

  4. In asia, europe, africa we only have the choice speak english with one another. Again no disrespect to spanish speaking people but they are favored for the past 5 decades.its time for them to adjust as bad as it may sound . Example a lot carrebeans Nation and territories speak and has English as an official language And yet we only chose to focus on a set of islands that dont DR and PR. And PR is debatable . Everytime the topic is brought up in pageants its mainly concerns SPANISH. Im sorry but thats more unfair for countries that speak multiple

  5. I love your factual and respect comments words on pageants, Pageant Nerd, especially some of your past work talking about pageants of the past, being a big time pageant follower (I'm dating myself here, but the first pageant I have ever seen live on TV was Miss Universe 1979, when Martiza Sayalero of Venezuela won, becoming that country's first MU winner, and I was hooked, at 8yrs old more a less, lol.) I started watching them though every year admittedly just Miss Universe, and Miss USA since 1981 (for some reason I didn't watch in 1980 so I missed Shawn Weatherly's dominant wins in both pageants that year, though thanks to You Tube I have seen it since) to the present, and a lot has changed in the years since I have been watching, but a lot still remains the same. Once again though , enjoy your insights and video commentary Pageant Nerd and look forward to more from you in this year 2022.

  6. Love you TPN, what amazing your content is. As a fan, I always found the support you have to every girl you mentioned as well as the countries you listed. However as this video Miss Grand International 2021 Nguyen Thuc Thuy Tien is not mentioned at a part she does deserve to be in, the crossover. She competed at Miss International 2018 before taking home the crown of MGI 2021, and just like her beloved predecessor, she has tried her best since then to make the 2nd victory in big 6 pageants for Vietnam. Just my thoughts for you to know that I was looking for more space for our queens rather than her "looks political" act (which she explained she resembled from her favorite movie), yes bc this victory means so much to us ^^.
    But in the end, the content is great, always supports you from a nerdy pageant fan too !

  7. i love mu , because they always choose the right latinas , asians , europeans and africans as winners , in the end ❤️ , judges can see , what others cannot see . that's why , i love harnaaz , andrea , catriona and zozi , they were humble since , day 1

  8. Oh wow ❗ You finally revealed yourself by showing your gorgeous face behind the great voice. It was nice seeing you for the first time. Are you a past winner of the International male title?

  9. Actually here's a thing about pageant fans… In countries (you know which ones) where pageants are followed like religion , their international bets suddenly become hot favorites even before the international competition even begins. Everyone is talking about them , they stand out because there is so much chatter about them , and because of this the competition becomes kindof unfair , and if these delegates are not placed up to the expectations of the fans ( or even nearer ) , the pageant fans start bashing the international organization online …. which creates a fear among international organizations..so they try to place these delegates at honorable positions….stealing the equality of the competition…

  10. Happy New Year TPN and to your followers. As your unofficial cheerleader I have an idea for your tag line – "lead with love". So, 2022 in a word – SUCKS! My sister fell off her roof and broke her elbow and had surgery. My brother had open heart surgery last week and I am shuttling between her and my brother who is recovering in New York City about 2 hours away for me. This morning I of course was looking for escape and YOU popped up! So, being brief for once I will say AGAIN this is my favorite video (I think I say that all the time, right?) but this was the most INTERESTING episode. Loved your take on my beloved Miss Thailand and of course your ending segment on our responsibility in the community. So, you know what this IS my favorite video (till next time). Happy New Year to you TPN and your merry bunch of followers – I wish you all peace and love and HEALTH. Sending love and friendship – Joseph from the USA (MY MOST CONSICE COMMENT YET!)
