A key interview last week
It is during this trip that several parades and interviews take place for each miss with the organizers. Wednesday, December 14, the Miss have participated in the individual interview before the pre-selection jury. The goal: to parade and express herself so that the experts at Miss France can determine if the candidate would make a good national ambassador. At the end of these orals, the jurors each voted for the 15 candidates they wish to see among the finalists. It was also during this almost initiatory journey that the famous general knowledge test, also counting for the first selection, passed through all the contenders.
If you support your regional miss or fall in love with a favorite in the first part of the show tonight, beware. The fate of half of the Miss France 2023 candidates is therefore already decided. Once the 15 finalists have been revealed – their identity will only be revealed in the middle of the evening – the real match can finally begin. These will be submitted to the question by Jean-Pierre Foucault then to the vote of the public and the jury of celebrities. And the direct will resume its rights.
