It’s Girl Power once again at the 71st Miss Universe Competition.
After having Steve Harvey for five years, this year’s Miss Universe welcomes new hosts.
Miss Universe 2012 Olivia Culpo and Jeannie Mai Jenkins will join forces as the new hosts for the upcoming pageant.
While Miss Universe 2018 Catriona Gray and “Emmy award-winning television personality, “American Ninja Warrior” co-host and “Access Hollywood” correspondent Zuri Hall will serve as the backstage commentators.
In an exclusive report from Variety, Olivia shared how honored she is to be part of the event.
“I have so much respect for the continuous evolution of the Miss Universe Organization, including the new female ownership for the first time in the company’s history,” Olivia said.
Olivia was crowned the Miss Universe 2012 in Las Vegas, Nevada. The Philippines representative then was Janine Tugonon, who won first runner-up in the same competition.
The competition is the latest TV event making a move to streaming, as The Roku Channel sealed a one-year deal to be the official English-language U.S. home for Miss Universe. The event also airs here in Spanish on Telemundo.
This year’s Miss Universe will be held at the Ernest N. Morial Convention Center, New Orleans, Louisiana, USA, on Jan. 14. (Jan. 15 in Manila).
