Miss Germany
Miss Germany is a national beauty pageant in Germany. The contest was held for the first time in 1927. History In the past there were several organisations which claimed the title: In the 1920s already, German jurisdiction decided that the title ''Miss Germany'' could not be patented or registered, thus everybody was allowed to run a contest and name the winner ''Miss Germany''. A similar decision followed in 1982. This resulted in having two titleholders in some years (as in 1928, 1931, 1953 and 1982), elected by different associations. In 1953, the new organiser and main sponsor of the pageant, the ''Opal'' stocking industries, acquired the international franchises for Miss Europe, Miss World, and Miss Universe and built up a kind of monopoly: Other promoters could not delegate their winners to international competitions, thus such rival contests became unattractive. The election of Heidi Krüger by the daily newspaper ''Hamburger Morgenpost'' remained an exception for many ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
