In reply to: Brent 's message, "Great News About Alice Panikian" on 14:58:12 07/24/07 Tue

On the Global Beauties website, there is a picture of Alice being crowned along w/ this blurb:

"TORONTO - 22-year old Alice Panikian will represent Canada at the Miss International 2007 beauty pageant to take place next October in Beijing, China.

At 1.85 m in height, Alice is currently pursuing a major's degree in Communications.

She was crowned by outgoing titleholder, Emily Kiss.

Special thanks to Beauties of Canada Organization"

But in this website:http://www.bconnex.net/~mscanada/
There is the following blurb:

"Stephanie Hiddema, Miss Ottawa 2007 will be representing Canada at a month long pageant in China!!!!
Stephanie competed at the Miss Canada International 2007 pageant August 2006 in Toronto and was selected by Miss Canada International head office as our official representative at this prestigious international event! Many of our titleholders have gone on to compete in international pageants through Miss Canada International's direction, the opportunities for our young ladies don't end pageant night!"

So who is going to China? Is it the same pageant?
I'm very CONFUSED!

And the btw.. when and where was this pageant??

Miss International Canada is the event that ran from 2002-2006 and chose our country's rep for the Miss International (est. 1960) event during that time. That pageant has now folded, and the Beauties of Canada Org'n now owns the rights to send a rep to the same Miss International Contest. The Miss Canada International has been around since 1995 and is a completely separate organization. As a guestimate, there are at least 10 "major" international pageants happening in China on an annual basis, so if the Miss Canada International folks are sending someone to China, it's to participate in one of those other events - not the aforementioned Miss International for which Alice Panikian was appointed. I'm very curious to see which pageant in China it will be, since it's not mentioned on the MCI website. There is one thing in common - both girls were appointed to participate in the international finals. (NT)Jimmy S.00:32:21 07/31/07 Tue
Jimmy is correct. I know Stephanie, and she is competing not in Miss International. She said it is call the Miss Beauty World pageant. I guess they missed it on the website--but either way, I wish both Alice and Stephanie the best of luck at the internationals! (NT):)14:51:06 07/31/07 Tue
