Miss Denmark Victoria Kjær Theilvig waves after winning the 73rd Miss Universe Beauty Pageant in Mexico City, Saturday, Nov. 16, 2024.The glitzy pageant began with contestants being narrowed down to a shortlist of 30, based on the results of Thursday's preliminary event, which included a flamboyant national costume contest. The semi-finalists then paraded in swimwear, before 12 of them advanced to an evening gown contest.
"I stand here today because I want a change, I want to make history, and that's what I'm doing tonight," she said. The age limit's removal came amid growing calls for the pageant to modernize. Ahead of 2023's contest, the Miss Universe Organization also lifted a longstanding ban on pregnant women or mothers, and women who are - or ever have been - married.
