1st RU again?! The unluckiest countries in the pageant world TPN#60

- As the saying goes, “You win some, you lose some.” But it would appear the winning and the losing varies from person to person, or in the case of international beauty pageants, from country to country.
Defying the law of averages, some nations have a much higher rate of success when they reach the latter stages of pageants, while conversely other countries are often left holding the runner-up bouquet.
This video honours the latter group - the unlucky nations that despite winning some of the time, have experienced much more heartbreak on Big 4 international pageant stages.

Until adulthood and subsequently coming out, I never knew there were so many pageant fans, like myself. I love your videos.
I just love this awesome content! ❤❤❤ I’m a pageant nerd myself! You’re now my Idol! Very informative! Bravo 👏🏼 🎊 🎉🤩👑🇺🇸
Awww such nice comments - thank you! So glad you’re enjoying it 😘😘😘
When I think of bridesmaids countries Colombia is always the first that comes to mind. They seem to send out beautiful candidates but always miss the mark. Usually it seems that the Q&A rounds are their weak points. I’m surprised with Luxembourg never placing since they are such a wealthy nation. I would’ve imagined they have the resources to properly prepare their representatives 🤷🏻♀️
The case of Luxembourg I think it’s a combo of small population + barely no pageant culture
Actually, Luxembourg did place in pageants, they placed in Miss International twice (1975 and 1993) and Miss Supranational once (2013), but the thing is, Luxembourg never cared about beauty pageant whatsoever, they could afford to go to any international pageant but they couldn't care less if they ever placed in one, another thing is that most Europpean countries don't really care about beauty pageant anymore so when Luxembourg's neighbors don't give a damn about it they decided to do the same and stop caring about beauty pageant, though they're still sending delagates to Miss World.
Within the International Miss Earth Elemental Court's History, Colombia 🇨🇴 Only has 4️⃣ Elemental 👸 (aka the Top 3️⃣ Runners-Up) Without Winning the Miss Earth Title at All. 1️⃣ 💛☁️ Queen (aka the 1st Runner-Up) [for the Year of 2016], 2️⃣ 💙💧 Queens (aka the 2nd Runners-Up) [for the Respective Years of 2017 and 2018] and 1️⃣ ❤🔥 Queen (aka the 3rd Runner-Up) [for the Year of 2022 Until the Present Era].
I cant agree more
Let’s not forget Colombia’s 3 year 1st runner up placement in miss universe in the 1990’s
Colombia might have better luck at Miss World's next edition. She's rising to be a frontrunner
The best channel in this area. Thank you for posting
Thanks very much! Really appreciate your kind words - and I’m so glad you enjoy the content 🥰
You have the most amazing knowledge and content about pageants ~ I don’t understand why you’re not at over a million subs already 😢
Thanks very much! Of course I’d like to have more subscribers but sadly I don’t produce content regularly enough to build my audience on a regular basis. But I appreciate every single one of my subs!
But Mr. Pageant Nerd, the content that you produce is informative and very well researched. It's worth the wait when your publications come out because we are receiving superb quality information about the fascinating world of pageantry. Keep up your OUTSTANDING work.
The research is amazing. As always, loved the video.
Excited for your Miss Universe Philippines reaction! Baguio and Makati were my favorites.
I love ur videos. They r kind of stress Busters for me
Thanks very much! They can sometimes be stress inducers for me to produce, but I’m glad you enjoy them! 😘
@@PageantNerd
Thanks a lot for response. I guess someone has to take pain for others
Ur content is amazing.
Love your in-depth and statistics on Miss Universe. Any chance you'd do a video on miss universe height? Tallest/shortest winners and/or tallest contestants? I know Miss Venezuela 1994, Minorka Mercado was 6'2".
I enjoy watching your videos as I consider myself somewhat of a pageant nerd as well. I just want to add that Jamaica has won Miss World four times and was the first runner up in the 2010 edition of Miss Universe.
Amazing research.
Great tally!! Thank you for all the efforts!!! You're so awesome 😘😘😘
You're so welcome!
I love your videos, I’m always shocked that Iceland 🇮🇸 hasn’t done better at Miss Universe in the 30 years I’ve watched all pageants Icelands only placed twice in 2009 an 2019 I thought for sure miss universe Iceland 2020 Elisabet snorradottir would place or even win she was STUNNING ! Iceland has done well at miss world winning in 1985, 1988 and 2005 though but I definitely prefer miss Universe over Miss World 🤗😀😀
Because it’s likely rigged
Hello TPN. I hope you can feature these please...
- First to be called in semifinals who became title winners
- Last spot to be called in semifinals who became title winners.
Thank you TPN! I really love your stats and lists! 🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰
Thank you so much for all of your efforts 🤗
Haiti 🇭🇹 is one country too of the unlucky country in world pageantry, with two 1st runners up in MU (1975 and 2016).
Great analysis! Sending love from Malaysia!
Wonderful trip to the past..totally enjoyed
Love the content, but why does that background music sound like an episode of Beyond 2000 hehe
I always anxiously wait for your posts. They're always great and well thought out. Love this channel!!!
You deserve Millions of subscribers!!!
Nice video, you forgot Jamaica which if I’m not wrong, has 4 MW crowns but hasn’t get the MU crown yet
Yes, silly mistake to miss Jamaica!
Yes… a MU crown is long overdue. They have consistently placed in the top 10 or 5 for in recent years. I think 2010 or 2017 should have been that year
A special mention to Curaçao, certainly not as unlucky as many others, but considered a shoo-in winner twice in Miss Universe only to end up empty-handed, both in 1968 and 1997.
I actually thought Gabriella from 2022 could do it until Q&A
Ms. Curacao 1997 was a frontrunner. However, her QandA performance in the top 6 was not impressive. The reason why she failed to make it to Top 3.
Miss Curacao in MU'68 outperformed the eventual winner Brazil in all aspects. Anne Marie Braafheid was really more deserving of the crown.
Awesome. I love your videos. Thx
Thanks very much! ❤️
You are missed ! Hope you're doing well ❤🎉
Luxembourg has been serious about collecting big Ls 27 at Miss Universe and 25 at Miss World. The lack of successful references is probably what keeps morale down in those countries.
I didn’t understand this comment at all.
Very informative regarding pageantry... Salute on you
A long time ago, it was Senegal. Now they've stopped joining the pageant. Findland is not unlucky as there are a lot of countries in which none of all pageants they won , even runner-ups, they failed.
The first country that came to mind when I saw the title was Colombia (especially, at Universe). From the three b2b 1st RU placements to the mess that was Pia's crowning, poor Colombia.
Exactly. I had the same thought.

WELCOME BACK
MAY OUR LORD JESUS CHRIST PROTECT YOU ALL AND BLESS YOU ALL ABUNDANTLY ❤
thanks for covering up the Miss Universe Thailand 2023 live shows 😉😉 TPN
Hahah my pleasure… good to see the TPN brand getting out there, even if it’s not mine in that instance!
It feels good to be crazy with TPN's mindblowing pageant statistics!!! I couldn't ask for more!!!
I mean, the level of research and excellent attention to detail is unmatched TPN.
A typical pageant fan or even the avid ones know only the winners or the controversies. You go beyond nerdy IMO. A pageant fountain of knowledge perhaps? 😅
Thank you, thank you, thank you! Very sweet words - and I’m so glad you enjoy the fruits of my labour! All the best to you 🥰❤️
Hi There… Congrats on your 3rd year and wishing u more years and success to come.
Anyway, would love to hear your thoughts and honest opinion on the changes in the Miss Universe org and it’s qualifications. Thank u
Thanks very much! Really appreciate it. My next video is actually touching on that subject to an extent as part of my MU preview series, but I’ll cover the age limit removal in more detail after this year’s competition 😎
@@PageantNerd Sounds great. Thanks a lot. Will look forward to that. TAke Care. 👼❤️🙏🏽🙏🏽😘🥂
Ariadna's runner up finish and accidental crowning is extra hurtful. No wonder the uproar that surrounded the incident was that bad.
Ariadna was one step closer to the crown until the final word where she made rude against her translator along with her self-centered response about Latina beauty.
She never won butch
They always seem to crumble in Q&A. Colombia was also the favourite for Miss Earth 2022 and was heavily supported by ME fans but again crumbled in Q&A.
Your time will come Colombia.
2010/2020 - Mexico
2012/2022 - USA
2013/2023 - Venezuela
2014/2024 - Colombia
Hi! I am not sure if someone already pointed this out but at 15:21, I think you accidently put Yasmin Daji's picture above Iona Pinto's name. Yasmin Daji was the 3rd runner up during the Miss Universe 1966 pageant I believe.
Nevertheless, great content and editing! I always make sure to watch every single video :)
Thanks Arnav, yes someone else had pointed out my error - I just wish I could make small edits to my videos without having to delete and reload then!
I am not sure if I missed some parts of your video, but is Jamaica on the video? They have won the Miss World 4 times but despite having strong candidates in the recent years, they are yet to win Miss Universe.
Oh yes, I absolutely should’ve included Jamaica - 1RU in 2010 and other Top 5 finishes. Good spot!
Your voice, diction and accent are awesome - very pleasing to the ears! Your content is very credible and well researched making your trivias interesting, informative and entertaining to watch...Love your channel! Am subscribing now.
Hi Danny, thanks so much for those lovely words. Good to see my TV reporter training many years ago has come in handy! Really thrilled you discovered my little channel and very grateful for your subscription. All the best to you!
Miss 🇨🇼 Curaçao 1st-up MU 1968
Miss 🇨🇼 Curaçao 1st-up MI 2017
I think it's not so much a case of being unlucky for many of these countries but it's because pageants aren't taken as seriously there and they think it's enough to be beautiful, so their entrants don't prepare enough for the all important interviews.
You are a good-looking guy❤. I started watching Miss America in 1991 and miss teen usa 1991 Miss Usa 1992 and Miss Universe 1992 when we got cable in my parents house
I always look forward when you upload. You've got such substancial content!

Which nations have NEVER placed at Miss Universe? (1952-2021) TPN#48
ruclips.net/video/olZzg0bybO8/видео.html
Philippines is unlucky on the Miss World with only 1 crown in 2013. In 1973, Philippines placed 1st Runner Up but crown was not awarded for unknown reason after the dethrone of the 1973 Miss World from USA.
Amazing trivia.....
Thank you for putting this all together. The statistics are indeed very interesting! In terms of performance at the international level, what do you think are the main factors as to why certain countries' representatives never seem to place? Do you think that in some cases it might be political in nature? Or do you think that those contestants might not have the same level of coaching/polish as the pageant powerhouse nations?
Thanks very much! So glad you enjoyed all the stats 😊 To answer your questions, I think it’s likely a combination of everything you suggest. For anyone to claim there isn’t politics or favouritism in international pageants I think is foolish. For a multitude of reasons, certain countries may be favoured over others - whether it’s due to where the pageant is held, what country the organisation is based in, a country’s history in the pageant, the popularity of pageantry in a certain country - I think they all have a role to play. But most certainly some countries prepare their queens better than others, and they should be rewarded for those efforts - not purely because of those efforts, however. The queen should still deserve her spot and perform well nonetheless.
Luckily Mexico won Miss World 2018 after being in top 5 many times, deserving the title in 2005 and 2009. Since 2017 is been in top 5 and top 12 and I hope will win again this year because the Mexican queen has many followers and won another international title already. I would like that Mexico wins Miss Earth some day but has only won an element title twice. Well, I hope Mexico wins MGI soon because it really deserved it in 2019. I'm sure that Mexico is so close to win the second MW crown than other pageant crowns.
Trivia.... did you know the very first Miss Universe Armi Kuusela's husband was a Filipino businessman named Virgilio Hilario. Just wanted to share hehehe =D
It’s ARMI Kuusela’s is Married to Virgilio Hilario and true Pilipino..
I met a Finish (?) Lady in Germany and she knew about Armi Kuusela and her filipino husband Hilario.
What's the point of this comment? You know other fans are mad to philioinos so stop exposing yourself. 🙄
@@Agent-ie3uv Why so triggered I just said a trivia! What is soooo wrong with that? Did not find anything wrong with my comment. You on the other hand are finding something to hate about something. What a loser!
@Bonbon C You should thanking me for giving you piece of useful advice to not targeted by other pageant fans of other country but you decided to take a massive L on this take 🚮
Brazil & Colombia is always 1st RU 😢
BRAZIL has 2 (two) MUs....
@@isacf2598 yes like Colombia but like Colombia also they have lots of Runner Ups more than Venezuela, USA & Philippines
Colombia & Venezuela are the top 2 countries that send in the Most Gorgeous Delegates - yet somehow fail to excel in the Q& A.
The Countries powerful in.the Q&A are South Africa, India Phillippines & Vietnam.......followed by Thailand & USA.
There's a change in the recent decade - Intelligence is now Recognised as well as Confidence .
Was it the Owner... The Judges .....The Fans....that brought this change about ???
I would think so...especially the Latter
The United Kingdom has won Miss International twice, 1969 and 1972!
Awesome !! 😊
Oh, my goodness. When you use the thanks function you have to do it before the video ends which I did to say thanks for all of this hard work and to congratulate you on 15,000 subscribers! I am so happy for you! And I needed some wonderful content because it has been a month! THEN I nearly fell off my chair when you mentioned me. You continue to bring more joy to now 15,000 subscribers and we are all cognizant of the amount of time and work you put into your content. So, thank you for mentioning me - so humbling and continue to lead with your policy to keep it fresh and light and NEVER hurting anyone. I hope you understand that you are a leader in the pageant community, and we are so lucky to be your subscribers! XO Joseph from the US
It was the absolute least I could do - I’ll be forever grateful for your tireless support and encouragement. And even noticing when I reach subscriber milestones, which I would never expect of anyone but myself! The pageant community needs many more people like you to foster positive dialogue between fans. I’m equally grateful for you!
An interesting video might be on stats on Yugoslavia’s placement in Miss Universe and other alpha pageants when they competed as unified Yugoslavia. Then post fall of Yugoslavia they competed as separate republics like Croatia, Slovenia, Kosovo, Bosnia-Herzegovina, Serbia and Montenegro? And I also remember Bosnia and Herzegovina winning Miss Earth once?
Another interesting topic would be USSR placements before former member nations competed separately, like Russia, Estonia, Lithuania, Latvia, Kazakstan, and so on; and how they fared as separate nations
Jamaica is still waiting for their first miss universe it’s not going to be easy because miss universe is very competitive
Again great video, love your analysis! May be not related to this video directly what are your thoughts about Miss universe 1995 1st Runner up, based on answers and overall performance Manpreet Brar was a better delegate as compare to Miss USA, would love to hear your thoughts!
Preliminaries: USA-1st vs India-9th
Swimsuit: USA-1st vs India-8th
On Stage Interview: USA-3rd vs India-4th
Evening Gown: USA-7th vs India-3rd (but the scores were super tight for the first 7 placements)
Semifinals(overall): USA-1st vs India-6th
Top 6: USA-2nd vs India-3rd
Unfortunately Manpreet's weak body of work were unable to change the judges' mind (except one of them failed to vote Manpreet's first place votes due to run out of time in the final look), in addition to her final look despite she has the strongest response in the final question.
@abiel Joshua sy thanks for that!
I am in your journey TPN! Well done!
the very 1st Miss Universe and Miss International queens married Filipino millionaires...KUUSELA remained married till her husband's death in 1974..and STELLA ARANETA is still very much married to her Filipino husband of 63yrs..Miss EARTH 2004 is also happily married to a Filipino actor
As a proud Greek-America, I would like to see another Miss Greece become Miss Universe as the last one from Greece to win since 1964.
In today's pageantry. The Miss World's popularity and relevance begin to dwindled.
In recent years, they often delayed and cancelled now their pageant.
They no longer have an ability to stage a competition annually.
It's not a surprise If we heard someday in the news that this pageant was no longer owned by Julia Morley.
You can not say runner up again as far are some countries are concerned. Every year different contestants
I like your videos
HAPPY ANNIVERSARY 😊 😃 😀 😄 😁 🤣 😊 LOVE YOUR CONTENT, WE ENJOYED BEING NERDS WITH YOU 😂LORD BLESS YOU ✝️ ❤
Instantly though of my country Brazil
PUERTO RICO is the luckiest Country Ever in Beauty Pageantry
Lucky if the pageant was performed in Puerto rico itself 🤣
You sounded like the "slapped ham" youtuber haha
I must admit I had to research who this guy was, but the Aussie accent is certainly unmistakable! I’d be thrilled to have 3M subscribers like him! 🇦🇺❤️
Um,I'm not sure if i can think of any countries that have not been placed in Miss Universe pageant. Miss world or miss international or Miss Earth
Two fun facts a propos of Denmark's two times 1986 1st runner-up Pia Rosenberg Larsen: that year's Danish (unplaced) representative at Miss Universe was future supermodel Helena Christensen and Pia's son Marcus Rosenberg Jorgensen was top 10 at Mister Supranational 2016.
Colombia needs more Miss Universe
Jamaica was not included Four miss whirlwind three top five at miss universe
Yes I most definitely should’ve mentioned Jamaica!
thank you . as the owner of Misters of Canada, I really enjoyed your commentary, Indept analysis as most pageant commentators only speak about recent pageants. It's a breath of fresh air to teach the younger bloggers how it's done. Thank you for making your commentary different and non-biased to any competition.I use your videos in helping to prepare my guys for international competition, showing them how research is done on the competition that they're competing in
when gibraltar has more pagaent wins than italy
Hi there!. I've been waiting your reaction a bout the previous MUP 2023 and i'm sure your happy Michelle Dee won the crown. Remember last year (smile)... what's your thoughts on this thanks...
Hi there back to you! Thanks for your kind words. I’m indeed working on a MUPh review - standby! And yes, my prediction came true, a year later!!!
@@PageantNerd anytime sir!. Ok then i'll wait.
Brazil won Miss Earth in 2004 and 2009.
Im waiting till my country miss canada wins miss world or miss international pageants they have won miss universe twice and miss Earth once.last year miss canada international was on top 8 in 2022. I hope Madison Kaitlin either win miss universe or place in to 16 this year. I hope i can see it on RUclips or tv this year 🎉
Philippines also became runners up consistently from 2011 to 2014.
Love your analyst.
Canada won 2 MU crowns and 1 ME crown, they came close of winning the crown 3 times at Miss World in 1984, 1989 and 2003.
And they’re mentioned in the video
Black to Black
Back to Back

Can you name them in Miss Universe?
Thanks!
Brazil....six times First Runner ups...
What is most prestigious? Miss universe or miss world?
🥰🥰🥰🥰I love Hispanic-Latina looks! Latinas or Hispanic are the most gorgeous women on Earth! The Philippines was a 336th colony of Spain; 5 years Dutch occupation; 5 years British attack; 2 years French invasion, Jewish Diaspora during World War 2 and 52 years American Territory.
Wow 🤩 Thank you for this info! 👍🏼👍🏼😍🤩👑🇵🇭🇺🇸
Will always be a loyal fan ❤ however im sensing youre scared to tackle my request of what you think are the most controversial wins hahahaha but trust me it will explode youtube!!!! You can do this!
I’m not gonna lie, the types of videos where I express an opinion vs merely laying out the facts do frighten me a little! I’ve tried to stick to the cold hard facts as much as possible in my content to date. But I’m willing to take on your challenge 😊 Let me ask you this - how do you define “controversial” in this context? What would be some of your picks?
@@PageantNerd okay. Wait yihhhh im fanboying gimme 2 seconds. Whew. Okay. In my opinion, at first, stay as far away from opinions that are purely objective (swimsuit and evening gown) and instead focus on overall performances that rely heavily on those final crucial moments (final answer, etc.).
And make sure that you gauge if a significant amount of the pageant world shares the same sentiment.
Don't make it a definitive "what you think" but rather, spark the question. Spark the "could it have beem wrong"?
So, more of a “could’ve been the winner instead” kind of situation? I’ve definitely thought about an “alternative Miss Universe” video which proposes another winner instead of the eventual queen. Surely bound to stir up its own controversy!
@@PageantNerd it sure will! Just remember not to sugar coat hehehehe
🇧🇷🇧🇷🇧🇷🇧🇷
I don't honestly know why Brazil wastes time taking part in these pageants... Seriously! When we won the 2nd Miss Universe crown, most powerhouses (Venezuela, Puerto Rico, Philippines had won NONE). Time has passed, they've won several titles and we're left just clapping.
When Miss Earth was created, we won it twice. No one had won it more than us. Again, time passed, we never won it again and other countries have overtaken us.
In 2023, a brand new pageant was created - Miss Charm - and guess what: Brazil won it! Do you want to bet that time will pass and we'll win nothing again? 🙂
In Miss Universe''s case, there seems to be a slight ''non-liking'' towards us. In 1993, people in Mexico were in awe when Leila Schuster wore a brilliant white dress. Everyone thought she would win... She didn't even make it to the top 5.
In 2017, Raissa Santana was considered by every pageant blogger I read the frontrunner alongside France's candidate. They were always top 2, with Raissa usually getting the #1 spot on the prediction lists. One blogger said something at the time that struck with me: "Raíssa stands out and is being considered the name to beat. She's got such an overwhelming lead on so many people's list that I have a terrifying feeling that something is going to happen and she won't win''... I guess the guy was a psychic. She was flawless but had to do the swimsuit part of the competition alongside the obese Miss Canada. The difference was startling. That said, Leila Lopes (angolan miss universe, crowned in Brazil!) and Perez Hilton both said that CANADA had stood out... Sorry, but no... It was the beginning of wokeness showing up at the pageants... WHat happened? Gorgeous Raíssa and her killer body didn't make it to the top 9. Canada did. Oh, and France won. At least 1 top 2 prediction was correct.
So, honestly, why waste time taking part in these competitions? I honestly don't know. Sorry for the venting! 🙂
USA rules for wins at MISS UNIVERSE!
Miss earth is timely relevant pageant and with best pageant advocacy ever❤❤❤
In what category mexico would be in?
the lukewarm candidates, they won for now and lose miserably the next day 🤣
Unlike VENEZUELAN women, I've always loved COLOMBIA and it's beautifully non-surgically enhanced women (my wife is Colombian and gorgeous without any surgeries...like me!!!). However, in the PAST, COLOMBIA has always had to compete with neighboring VENEZUELA's wealthy oil/gas image...and the fact that VENEZUELA always performed PLASTIC SURGERY on their contestants (something VENEZUELA always DENIED until technology/Internet exposed their blatant lies). Today, COLOMBIA is one of the wealthier SOUTH AMERICAN/LATIN countries with an incredible economy and an awesome health-care system (better than the USA, Australia and Germany) while VENEZUELA is dirt POOR and many of it's citizens live in COLOMBIA (6 Million/20% of Venezuela's population lives in COLOMBIA). Had pageant judges been better informed, COLOMBIA would have won over "PLASTIC/FAKE" Venezuela. To me, natural beauty speaks for itself and plastic surgery is CHEATING!!!
at 6:01 it is should be 2009
Oh yes, so it should! For once I thought I’d made a mistake-free video… Hopefully next time! Thanks for letting me know 😊
❤❤
On 03:28 Philippines has more titles than South Africa :)
It’s ranked in order of most Top 3 finishes
Philippines has four Miss Universe titles and South Africa only has three
Well first country with very bad luck that comes to mind and you neglected to mention is the Dominican Republic with only four placements overall (1 per decade) since 1977 when they hosted the MU and got their first placement in the top ten until 2003 when finally the DR with Amelia Vega won the crown which apparently you think was undeserved since you listed it in your top 5 controversial wins video
From 2003 to 2023 the DR made it seven times in the top with Ada Aimé de la cruz being the one who went the furthest among them when she lost the crown to an underwhelming Venezuelan contestant
To be clear I don’t think Amelia’s win was undeserved - merely by having these wins featured in that video does in no way imply I think they were undeserved. I thought I made it clear in the video the controversy was over the fact she was trained (briefly) in Venezuela, and then beat a Venezuelan in the Top 2. And with respect to DR and their placements, that could be said for a lot of countries - the scope of the “unluckiest” countries had more to do with countries that have come close to winning more times than they actually won.
Portugal?

Hola
