Miss Universe is changing. Such was made clear in a recent declaration by the pageant’s new owner. The show was held Saturday, and CEO Anne Jakkaphong Jakrajutatip told the audience it’s a transformative day. At the 71st Miss Universe competition in New Orleans, Anne heralded female dominance. The biological male touted the start of womanly stewardship — and an end to manly ownership:

The crowd bathed its orator in applause.
Anne certainly has power. The Thai billionaire and biggest shareholder of JKN Global Group Public Company Limited bought the Miss Universe Organization from Endeavor’s IMG for $20 million. As for transgenderism, the pageant’s been moving in that direction since at least 2018. That year, Angela Ponce became the first biological male to compete, having won the lower pageant to represent Spain. The transpiration was further notable since, in 2012, a male Canadian hopeful had sued Miss Universe over the right to participate. The organization resultantly relaxed its rules. These days, transgender people are everywhere — in politics, entertainment, education, medicine, and even the military. In traditionally women-dominated realms, change has been the flavor: Biological Male Identifying as Woman Wins Miss Nevada Transgender Model Slams Victoria’s Secret For Bigotry Miss America Organization Crowns Its First Biologically Male Queen New Victoria’s Secret Underwear Angel is Transgendered There’s surely very much more to come. Last October, Anne purchased the Miss Universe, Miss USA, and Miss Teen USA beauty contests. Even so, pageants don’t hold the weight they once did. As reported by the New York Post, “Jakkaphong bought the organization much to the delight of former owner and famed superagent Ari Emanuel, who reportedly had an ugly time trying to find a buyer after refusing to slash the price.” Change is definitely in the air:
