Miss and Mister Supranational have also been postponed

Gerhard Parzutka von Lipinski, President of the Miss and Mister Supranational Organization, announced today that the next editions of Miss Supranational and Mister Supranational have been postponed. The 12th edition of Miss Supranational and 5th edition of Mister Supranational will place in 2021.

“Having our competitions during a global pandemic was never an option for us. It is not a risk that we are prepared to take and we do not feel 2020 is a good time for an international event with so many participating countries. Our number one priority is the health, safety, and well-being of our contestants, therefore, it was an easy decision to make. During the coming months, we will evaluate the situation in the world and consult with our broadcast partner to determine the best date for our next competitions”, said Lipinski.

The reigning Miss Supranational, Anntonia Porsild from Thailand, and Mister Supranational, Nate Crnkovich from the United States, will continue being the official ambassadors of the organization as their reigns will be extended until the next competitions take place.

“As some candidates have already been selected and more will be chosen in the coming months, we will use the extra time to highlight and feature the journey of each one of them in the running for the next Miss and Mister Supranational titles,” added Miss and Mister Supranational Creative Director, Andre Sleigh.

Among the Grand Slam pageants, at this point, Miss International, Miss Supranational, and Miss World have made official statements about postponing their pageants as a result of the global coronavirus pandemic. Hopefully Miss Grand International and Miss Universe will follow through.
