Ahead of the Miss Universe 2024 semi-finals, prestigious beauty sites continuously publish prediction lists for the top 30 and top 20.
Beauty site Missosology also released the third ranking. In the top 30, Miss Nguyen Cao Ky Duyen was not mentioned.
Missosology once predicted that Thanh Thuy of Vietnam would be crowned Miss International 2024 and that has come true.
The fact that Ky Duyen is continuously absent or at the bottom of the top 30 in the rankings makes experts believe that it will be difficult for Ky Duyen to go far in Miss Universe 2024.
In the list evaluated by beauty site Global Beauties, the top 20 also lacks Ky Duyen. She is also not on the additional prediction list.
The fact that Ky Duyen is not highly rated in the world experts' prediction rankings puts her in a difficult position. Although Ky Duyen has shown investment and careful preparation to shine in this international race.
Nguyen Cao Ky Duyen's strengths are catwalk, confident demeanor, performance experience and beautiful fashion style.
Miss Universe Vietnam's homepage announced that Ky Duyen was among the top makeup contestants in the Miss Universe Cosmetics Masterclass.
Vietnam's representative also received great interaction on the Miss Universe homepage. Images and information about Ky Duyen were shared and cheered by the audience.
In the two semi-final and final nights broadcast live, Ky Duyen and the contestants will appear before a global audience, showcasing their skills to compete for the crown.
Ky Duyen also has the strength of having won two major beauty contests in her home country, and has extensive experience in "fighting" and competing in beauty contests.
If she performs well and has a good social project, Ky Duyen can enter the top 20, maybe even the top 10. To go further, many more factors will be needed besides Ky Duyen's efforts.
This year, Miss Universe's crown is called The Light of Infinity, with a white and gold color scheme and pearl accents.
The audience discovered that this crown has many similarities with Ky Duyen's Miss Vietnam 2014 crown, also has similar colors, and is studded with many gold-plated pearls. From this coincidence, fans sent their wishes to Ky Duyen to create a miracle.
Nguyen Cao Ky Duyen was born in 1996, from Nam Dinh, and was crowned Miss Vietnam 2014 while still a student at the Foreign Trade University in Hanoi. After being crowned, Ky Duyen stopped studying at university.
She works as a model, working in the fashion industry. In many performance events, she was chosen as the vedette.
In 2017, Ky Duyen became a coach on The Look - Brand Beauty and a judge on Vietnam Supermodel at the age of 22.
By 2022, Ky Duyen will continue her role as a coach at Miss Fitness - Miss Sports and The Face Brand Face.
