Case Unclosed:Germany's clapping streak at MW (1981-present)

Prior to Gabriella Brum's resignation at Miss World 1980 after almost a day since she won, there were 15 German girls who made the 1st cut during the 1st 29 editions of the pageant. But after her resignation, Germany went into a 3 decade clapping streak until 2010 when they placed again at the pageant. Since the Top 25 finish at Miss World 2010 there were no German beauties have every place with the eventual withdrawal from the competition in 2019.

Do you think Gabriella Brum was the reason why Germany only placed once in the last 39 editions of the pageant? Do you think she was the one who discouraged beautiful German girls from competing at Miss World pageant although some German beauties went to place in other pageants like Iris Klien who won the Miss International 1989 or entered in modelling field like Heidi Klum?

Julia takes everything personal.
relating this to Ph, when in 1973, Evangeline Pascual refused to perform the duties offered to her, Ph never won.
2013 is different because Megan Young was Liliana's only choice for the crown and Julia cannot defy.

Miss World NEVER offered the crown to Evangeline Pascual nor offered her to perform the duties of Miss World. That was all in Evangeline's crazy head.

Until in 1974 that the rule of succession finally took place if winner unable to fulfill her duties. Aside from Marjorie there were few titleholders did not attend the finals the following year due to sickness yet they were not stripped of the title. Anneline Kriel was the 1st "runner up to Miss World" to inherit the title because of Helen Morgan's involvement with a popular celebrity couple's love triangle-divorce scandal (not because she is a single mom).

HOW COULD THAT BE SEEN AS JULIA TAKING THINGS PERSONAL? SHE DIDN'T BECOME THE BOSS NOR CHIEF JUDGE UNTIL 2001.
I CAN'T THINK OF A MISS GERMANY WHO I'D SAY STOOD OUT OR WAS MISSED WHEN THEY CLAPPED SINCE 1980. GABRIELLA BRUM WAS THE LAST REAL CONTENDER FROM GERMANY BEFORE THEY BECAME THIS PROGRESSIVE COUNTRY THAT DIDN'T CARE ABOUT BEAUTY PAGEANTS ANYMORE.

EVANGELINE PASCUAL DID SAY HER DECISION NOT TO TAKE THE TITLE WAS PERSONAL BECAUSE SHE THOUGHT SHE WAS SUPPOSED TO WIN IN THE FIRST PLACE AND HER FATHER ADVISED HER NOT TO TAKE ON THE DUTIES AND STAY HOME.

Possible reason but other European countries have more placements than Germany since 1981.
1st 30 editions where Germany placed 16 times but after Gabriela's resignation, Germany only placed once in 2010.

From 1981 to 2009, Germany faced the clapping streak. It ended the placement drought in 2010 where their candidate placed in the Top 25 and that was their only placement after Gabriela resigned from Miss World.

AND I GUESS YOU ALSO BELIEVE THAT GERMAN GIRLS WHERE BLACKLISTED SUBSEQUENTLY BECAUSE ONE GERMAN WINNER RESIGNED ABRUPTLY?

Not until the following year that MWO started to promote the 1st Runner Up to Miss World titleholder if the titleholder resigned or dethroned. They learned their lesson from this experience.

Yet Filipinos have actively spread a lie that she was offered the crown or offered to carry out duties and turned it down. They worked the narrative that MW was biased against Filipino queens until Megan Young won 4 decades later.

It seemed Pascual was bitter about not being offered the title for the remaining 9 months of the reign. How could her father discourage her from accepting something that was never even offered to her? @-)

WRONG!!!!!!!!!!!! SHE SPOKE ABOUT IT!!! It's all on video https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=j2ghVix1x1g

"Once after I was asked to take home the title but I refused because that night, that crown, think of it as a lollipop. That lollipop belongs to the Philippines and you took the lollipop and when you after tasting it, holding it, and then you didn't want it anymore you returned the lollipop so it is going to be stupid to know for the country if I did. And out of self-respect as well as us also as per the advice of my later father just stay here and continue on serving the country..."

So yeah, it was all in her crazy head. lol

Now focus on this Miss World 1980 issue:
https://rodriguezmatute.home.blog/2020/ ... orld-1980/

Do you still think that Germany was a "progressive country" or German beauties lacked of passion due to Gabriela's resignation caused Germany to clap at Miss World for the next 30 years?

I don't think anyone in Germany would have blamed the Morley's! It was after all, Gabriella's decision to step down. If anything MWO handled it all gracefully and never commented in a disparaging way on her behavior in public or made the switch hard.

As for Germany and your original question - I don't think MWO holds grudges against individual girls based on an organization. Germany just started to unravel in general in pageants, a lot of Euorpean countries did in the. 80s. And their decline was not just at MW, but also at Miss Universe. Ok, they placed 81-84, but since 1984, they have only placed TWICE - once in 1989 (also a long time ago, almost concurrent with 80) and once in the 2000s with Natasha Borger, who was basically a Miss Venezuela.

I think really the point is that German candidates entered into a spiral of poor preparation and poor results and worse and worse candidates. Not a single girl coming for pageants in Germany recently is of the caliber of girls we know Germany can produce.

Thanks for the insight. But I still think her resignation created a huge impact on the declining performance of Germany and other Western European nations in the world of pageantry recently.
