The news that Mai Phuong Thuy will be sitting on the judge's chair is of interest to many audiences, because many years after being crowned, she still maintains her appeal as well as a beautiful image, with little scandal.
Mai Phuong Thuy represented Vietnam in Miss World 2006. She finished in the top 17 as the most popular contestant (most voted) in the Asia-Pacific region. In addition, the black peacock-tailed ao dai with sequins also helped Mai Phuong Thuy enter the top 20 most impressive national costumes.
In recent years, the 8X beauty queen has focused on business and does not regularly participate in entertainment activities, but she still accepts to sit on the judge's chair of several beauty contests.
The preliminary round of Miss World Vietnam 2019 is scheduled to take place on June 1 in Ho Chi Minh City and June 28 in Hanoi. The final round of the Southern and Northern regions will be held on June 22 in Ho Chi Minh City and July 7 in Quang Ninh, respectively. The final round of the awards ceremony will take place in early August in Da Nang City.

This is the first time Vietnam has had an official Miss World Vietnam contest to select representatives for this major international beauty pageant. Up to now, Vietnam's representatives in Miss World have usually been Miss Vietnam (like Tieu Vy, My Linh) and Ao Dai (Lan Khue, Dieu Ngoc) winners.
In 2017 and 2018, Do My Linh and Tieu Vy both scored points thanks to their carefully prepared meaningful charity projects. The two beauties respectively achieved top 40 and top 30 Miss World.
