Miss Universe China stripped of crown

On the evening of April 10, the organizing committee Miss Miss Universe China announced that beauty Xinying Zhu - crowned Miss Universe China in December 2024 - has been stripped of her crown. The highest position of the contest has been transferred to the first runner-up - Zhao Na.

Xinying Zhu - crowned Miss Universe China in December 2024 - was stripped of her crown.

The reason given by the Organizing Committee is that Xinying Zhu could not fulfill her role as Miss during her term.

“Due to the age limit, Xinying Zhu - who was crowned last December - could not continue to hold the title of Miss and was dethroned. Therefore, Zhao Na - the first runner-up - was the successor and became the new representative of Chinese beauty in the international arena.

We eagerly follow Zhao Na's journey with the belief that Chinese women can absolutely become leadership icons anywhere in the world" - Miss Universe China Organizing Committee informed.

Zhao Na - the new Miss Universe 2024 - is model famous fashion, has aesthetic taste, has walked on prestigious catwalks of many international designers around the world.

Standing at 1.83 m tall, Zhao Na is not only a prominent model but also a professional dancer and music enthusiast. She has been learning the pipa and guzheng, and has been familiar with traditional dances such as Xinjiang dance and classical dance since she was a child.

Zhao Na - 1st runner-up of Miss Universe China 2024 - becomes the new Miss, competing in Miss Universe 2026.

In 2024, China made headlines when it crowned two beauties representing the country at the Miss Universe pageant in the same year, after holding two separate competitions.

Xinying Zhu from Anhui Province was crowned Miss Universe China in Zhangjiajie. She majored in flight attendant at Suzhou Aviation College. The 18-year-old beauty was originally to represent China at the Miss Universe 2026 pageant.

Xinying Zhu was crowned by Xue Hou - Miss Universe 2024. Xue is China's representative at Miss Universe 2025.
