Carey Ng, National Director of MUMO explained, “The web series highlights the journey of 14 beautiful finalists who will be trained in their first week on all aspects of becoming a beauty queen before they enter the challenge round where they are put to the test, emulating the journey to become Miss Universe internationally. They will be judged based on their beauty and physique, charisma and communication skills, modelling, wellness and aptitude for success. The journey brings a bittersweet touch to the girls as they bond as friends but compete under pressure to secure their spot in the finals.”

She added, “This year, I want all 14 girls to have the same amount of time and motivation to give their best self in the finals and therefore, there will be no eliminations. Their performance throughout will be scored until the final day where the Top 8 shall be revealed. This journey gives an insight into what it takes to be a beauty queen, and it beats public misconception as the girls keep it real, failing sometimes but always getting back on their feet better than before! Now that we are going digital, we hope to have more eyes on them in their journey as one of the 14 wins her crown to the Miss Universe pageant next year.”
