(Dan Tri) - In 1996, Mr. Donald Trump bought the Miss Universe pageant and turned it into a luxury entertainment program with a large audience. Misses under Mr. Trump possess impressive beauty.


Miss Universe is one of the oldest and most prestigious beauty pageants along with Miss World and Miss International. Miss Universe was first held in 1952 under the management of an American swimsuit company.

The pageant was owned by Kayser-Roth, then Gulf and Western Industries before being sold to Donald Trump in 1996.

In addition to Miss Universe, Mr. Donald Trump is also associated with two other famous American beauty pageants: Miss USA and Miss Teen USA. All three pageants are managed by the Miss Universe organization that Mr. Trump once bought.

"I love beautiful women and I'm a businessman so owning a beauty pageant was a great idea," Trump explained about buying the Miss Universe organization in 1996.

For nearly two decades, Donald Trump organized many beauty pageants, helping many young girls become famous and find opportunities in the entertainment industry. "I gave young girls a great opportunity when I organized beauty pageants for them," Trump said on Primetime Live in 1994.

Of the three beauty pageants mentioned above, Miss Universe is considered the most successful and memorable. With his sharp business sense, Mr. Trump has turned the pageant into a beauty pageant and luxury entertainment event, attracting a record number of viewers.

He often changes the format (style) of the contest, changes the rules, adds or removes parts of the contest and even uses many tricks to make the contest more attractive.

In 2015, Donald Trump officially sold the Miss Universe pageant to WME/IMG to focus on his presidential campaign. He has continued to follow and make statements related to beauty pageants.

In the first Miss Universe season after Mr. Trump left the Miss Universe organization, the contest witnessed a "unique" chaos in the final night.

The MC mistakenly announced the winner, naming the Colombian contestant instead of the Philippines’ Pia Alonzo Wurtzbach. The incident became a rare and controversial event in the more than 70-year history of the competition.

After the incident, Mr. Trump commented: "So sad. I sold the contest 6 months ago for a record price. If I did, this would never have happened."

When asked about his past with beauty pageants, Mr. Trump once shared: "I am very happy to own beauty pageants. When I bought the pageants many years ago, they were in great difficulty. I am honored to bring success and see the pageants develop around the world."
