According to this unit, the decision was made after a thorough consideration process, based on the general strategic orientation in 2026.
In a press release, Sen Vang said that the temporary suspension of participating in Miss Grand International All Stars is to maximize resources for key projects that have been planned, and at the same time ensure comprehensive and meticulous preparation for upcoming activities. The company also expressed its appreciation for the audience's interest and expectations for this international beauty contest.
We hope to have the opportunity to accompany Miss Grand International All Stars in the following seasons, when conditions are suitable. Although not directly sending representatives to participate in the first season, Sen Vang hopes that the audience will continue to cheer and support the contestants who will participate in Miss Grand International All Stars this year," Sen Vang's announcement stated clearly.
The above move quickly attracted attention and created many discussions in the beauty fan community. This is also a rare time Sen Vang has not sent a representative of Vietnam to participate in the Miss Grand International arena, after many years of continuously accompanying this competition.
The most recent representative of Vietnam at Miss Grand International is Yen Nhi - Miss Grand Vietnam 2025. At the competition, Yen Nhi did not enter the top 20 overall.
Miss Grand International All Stars is a special edition gathering beauties who have competed in international beauty pageants, not for "newcomers".
Previously, audiences predicted many contestants. Notably, Nguyen Le Ngoc Thao, 2nd runner-up of Miss Vietnam 2020, who once represented Vietnam at Miss Grand International 2020. Although not achieving high rankings, Ngoc Thao possesses advantages in international experience, foreign language skills and stable image, suitable for the All Stars' "returning to enhance image" criteria.
Another face is Doan Thien An, Miss Grand Vietnam 2022, Top 20 Miss Grand International 2022. Thien An scored points with her inspiring story and calm demeanor, but she once expressed that she was not interested in returning to beauty contests, making the possibility of reappearing not high.
Meanwhile, Le Hoang Phuong - 4th runner-up of Miss Grand International 2023 - has impressive international achievements and strong media influence. However, having just competed internationally not long ago, her ability to participate in All Stars at this time is still uncertain.
