The moment Le Hoang Phuong was crowned Miss Grand Vietnam 2023
Age has never been a barrier
On the evening of August 27, the beauty from Khanh Hoa - Le Hoang Phuong won Miss Grand Vietnam 2023.
The fact that Le Hoang Phuong won the highest title in a national beauty contest at the age of 28 is quite rare.
Le Hoang Phuong was crowned Miss Grand Vietnam 2023 at the age of 28.
Talking about this decision, Ms. Pham Kim Dung - Head of the Organizing Committee (OC) of Miss Grand Vietnam 2023 affirmed: "Up to now, we have never considered age as a barrier for a contestant to reach the crown.
I affirmed this in the preliminary round of Miss Grand Vietnam 2023: The contest only has "beauty queens, no queens". We have a requirement for contestants to be between 18 and 28 years old, so the opportunities for girls in that age group are equal.
This year, Hoang Phuong is the contestant who tries the hardest and is the most balanced in all aspects, so Hoang Phuong's coronation is completely convincing."
Head judge - Miss Ha Kieu Anh said that Hoang Phuong is probably one of the few beauty queens in Vietnam to be crowned at a fairly old age, 28 years old.
However, this also shows Hoang Phuong's great effort and strong heart.
“Judging Le Hoang Phuong was a very long process for the judges. We followed Phuong from the day she entered the competition until the day she shone on stage. It was not an easy journey.
Moreover, Phuong also received great support from the public. To keep the audience's love for you from beginning to end like that is not a simple thing. Therefore, the judges need to judge with their hearts, impartiality and fairness.
"We cannot, just because she is old, not let her be crowned, not give her a position worthy of her recent efforts," said Miss Ha Kieu Anh.

Former Miss Grand International 2022 Nguyen Thuc Thuy Tien also said that there were many older contestants in a beauty contest who had registered to compete. However, they did not achieve high results. That also depends on the quality of the contestants of that year's season.
Thuy Tien thinks that Hoang Phuong is the most brilliant contestant this year. She entered the contest at an age when she was mature in terms of experience and her interviews were more sincere.
"Hoang Phuong maintains her energy throughout. Moreover, she is sociable and behaves well with people around her, which is an outstanding advantage for the judges to choose," Thuy Tien explained.
Meanwhile, judge Do Long affirmed that Le Hoang Phuong has all the qualities to become Miss Grand Vietnam.
"She has all 4Bs that Miss Grand International is looking for - Beauty, Body, Brain, Business. However, the new beauty queen also has many years of experience working in showbiz, good English skills, and a friendly, sociable personality to represent Vietnam to welcome international delegations," said designer Do Long.

For two minutes, she trembled, constantly holding her chest and unable to fully express what she wanted to say.
In front of the audience's cheers, the 23-year-old beauty tried to stay calm and answered: "Maybe today I am not the contestant with the best response. However, everyone's applause and encouragement are already tolerance and forgiveness for me."
