MISS FRANCE. While the Miss France 2023 election takes place this Saturday, December 17 in Châteauroux, the fate of the 15 finalists is sealed this Wednesday during the grand oral.
1:10 p.m. – The preselection oral of the 15 Miss France finalists takes place this Wednesday
It’s a decisive day for the candidates of Miss France 2023. The preselection oral for the regional Misses takes place this Wednesday, December 14, 2022 at Chateauroux. The candidates will pass an individual interview in front of a jury. The participants choose their outfit and take care of their make-up and hairstyle themselves before giving a short speech and answering questions from the jury. They finally parade in swimsuits. At the end of these interviews, the pre-selection jury designates the 15 finalists who will be voted on by the public and the jury of celebrities during the evening.
12:37 – Who came first in the Miss France 2023 general culture test?
The candidates of Miss France 2023 tested their knowledge during the general culture questionnaire last November, during their trip to Guadeloupe. If that does not allow the first to be the favorite, it certainly allows it to score points with the preselection jury. This year, Perrine Prunier, representing Normandy, obtained the best mark, a 17.5/20. You too can test your knowledge with the Miss France general knowledge test in clicking here.
12:05 – Images of the reign of Diane Leyre
Diane Leyre will return her crown this Saturday, December 17, 2022, by crowning the future Miss France 2023. The one who represented Île-de-France last year plans to continue her activities as a host thereafter and release a book on his regnal year. Relive the greatest moments of Miss France 2022 in our slideshow below.
11:36 – What are the new rules of the Miss France competition?
New rules have changed the Miss France pageant this year, under the impetus of Alexia Laroche-Joubert, the company’s new president. The selection criteria have indeed been broadened: transgender candidates are accepted on condition that the candidate has a female civil status, and mothers and married women can enter the competition. There is also no longer an age limit to participate. However, we do not find such profiles in the final this Saturday. In addition, tattooed candidates now have the right to participate in the beauty contest.
11:00 – Sylvie Tellier looks back on her relationship with Alexia Laroche-Joubert
Sylvie Tellier left the Miss France organization last August, but she will officially pass the torch during the 2023 election held on Saturday evening. During a review interview with Le Parisien, she returned to her relationship with Alexia Laroche-Joubert and the changes she made: “I suffered too much with Geneviève de Fontenay, I will not judge the new rules. Any change is good. You leave and shut up.” She also confides that she had no say in the choice of her successor, Cindy Fabre. “I’m glad Alexia, with her big-show expertise, is protecting this program.” She also confided about the new boss of the program that “it is not because we do not agree that we are in tension”, in reference to their clash in a press conference.
10:32 – Why Instagram isn’t always reliable for Miss France predictions
The number of subscribers on Instagram is one of the indicators often mentioned to know the favorites before the Miss France evening. But this indicator is not necessarily the one that can predict the winner of the evening. The jury, which decides on the 15 finalists beforehand, may not choose one of the favorites on the social network. In addition, TF1 viewers do not necessarily have the same tastes as Instagram users, and their votes may vary. Thus, last year, Miss Alsace had the most subscribers on Instagram, but ranked third.
10:05 – Are there already favorites for Miss France?
Each year, it is difficult to predict which candidate can win Miss France. There are a few indicators, however, starting with popularity on Instagram: this year, Miss Guyana has the most subscribers, followed by Miss Réunion and Miss Nord-Pas-de-Calais. Conversely, Agathe Cauet, representative of Pas-de-Calais, can create surprise since she looks like Iris Mittenaere and Camille Cerf. Finally, Miss Guadeloupe was also noticed by the media present during the preparation trip. The names of Miss Midi-Pyrénées or Miss Côte d’Azur are also regularly mentioned, but it is always the jury and the viewers of TF1 who give the vote who will have the last word on Saturday evening.
09:31 – Only a few days left before Miss France 2023
The wait before knowing the name of the future Miss France is soon coming to an end. The 2023 election is scheduled for this Saturday, December 17, 2022. It is taking place this year in Châteauroux. Like every year, TF1 is broadcasting the event live: the beauty contest can be followed on the first channel from 9:10 p.m. on Saturday.
