Saudi Arabia breaks tradition by sending Rumy Alqahtani as its first-ever contestant to the Miss Universe pageant, signaling a significant shift in the country's conservative stance towards beauty pageants.
Alqahtani, a 27-year-old content creator from Riyadh, boasts a remarkable academic background with a Bachelor's degree in dentistry and fluency in multiple languages.
Her numerous crowns in national and international pageants underscore her versatility and achievements.
The Miss Universe 2024 pageant not only marks Saudi Arabia's debut but also features Iran's first appearance.
This reflects a broader trend of increasing inclusivity and diversity within the prestigious beauty competition, as seen in recent years with the inclusion of transgender and plus-size contestants.
