Trivia It will be the first ever competition produced by the new license holder Rodrigo Ferro. Businessman, he also told the Brazilian press that he hopes to inject 50 million into the contest. For the first time, not only states, but other regions of the country will be able to compete with candidates. The pageant will also have the help of Natália Guimarães (Vice-Miss Universe 2007) and Julia Gama (Vice-Miss Universe 2020) as directors. Gama left the competition in May saying that she wants to prioritize environments and projects aligned with your personal and professional values. For the first time since 2019 the national beauty pageant will be televised by a free-to-air TV channel. Only the states of Paraíba, Rondônia and Sergipe will not join the national pageant this year. This will be the first time since 1991 that both states will not compete in the national pageant. This is the second consecutive year that the event has failed to finalize the list with all state representatives. Olivia Quido, Vice President for Global Partnerships of the Miss Universe Organization visited the brazilian headquarters during the preliminary, in March.
