Miss Israel (Hebrew: מַלְכַּת הַיֹּפִי, Malkat HaYōfî, lit. 'The Beauty Queen') was a national beauty pageant in Israel. The pageant was founded in 1950, where the winners were sent to Miss Universe.
History
[edit]In the late 1920s, a "Queen Esther Beauty Pageant" was held in Tel Aviv, centred on the holiday of Purim. The first Miss Israel took place in 1950, two years after Israel's independence.[1]
From then onwards, Miss Israel was the national franchise holder for Miss Universe, Miss World, and Miss International. The pageant's official winner represented Israel at Miss Universe and the runners-up at Miss World, Miss International, and Miss Europe. The winner also occasionally competed at other international pageants, such as Miss World in 1953, 1968, 1992, 1996–1998; Miss International in 1963; Miss Asia Pacific International; and Miss Earth.
In 2022, the pageant was cancelled amid controversies over its relevance to modern social standards.[2]
