The Miss Globe is an international beauty pageant held annually since 1925. Initially known as Dream Girl International, the contest was rebranded as Miss Globe in 1975. There are three Miss Globe pageants, which are spin-offs from the original Miss Globe founded by Charlie See. The founder and coordinator of these trademarks is Mr. Alien Mouradian, also known as Charlie See. Miss Globe was registered with the Bureau of Patents and Trademarks in Washington, D.C., in 1975. As The Miss Globe, organized by the Deliart Association, the pageant is now officially headquartered in Albania.

The current titleholder, Chayathanus Saradatta from Thailand, was crowned on 15 October 2025, at the Palace of Congresses in Tirana, Albania. She succeeded Miss Globe 2024, Diana Moreno of Colombia.

History

The Miss Globe pageant originated in 1925 with a competition held at Emek Cinema in the Beyoğlu district of Istanbul, Turkey. It was conceived by Alien Mouradian, a director at the cinema, as a way to attract audiences. Originally named Dream Girl International, the pageant reportedly crowned Alma F. Cavagnaro from the United States as its first winner, although Arak Çetin from Turkey has also been cited as the inaugural titleholder. Some contemporary reports, however, suggested that the competition was unfairly judged, leading the cinema operators to announce its discontinuation shortly after its launch.[1]

Following this controversy, Mouradian relocated to the United States, where he continued organizing the Miss Globe contest, including an event held at a models' ball in Winnipesaukee, where Alma Cavagnaro was crowned.[1]

Initially, names like Miss Globe Beauty, Miss Globe Beauty Pageant, and Miss Globe were not registered trademarks. In subsequent years, Mouradian registered these names under the pseudonym Charlie See, a name he was widely known by in Hollywood. Under this pseudonym, he established a film company, "Charlie See Pictures," gaining recognition in the industry. Due to illness, Mouradian sold his shares in 1948 to RCA Global Company to fund his treatment, but he soon died. After his death, the pageant's organization was taken over by Mr. Li Sun, a former stagehand in the production company. Under RCA Global, the pageant grew into a significant recurring event, with Li Sun also adopting the Charlie See pseudonym, gaining recognition in the industry under this name.[1]

The first official trademark registration for the Miss Globe Beauty Contest was made in Turkey in 1950, under the auspices of RCA. The pageant became a tradition and, in 1975, was acquired by Charlie See after Mouradian's death.[1]

Under See's leadership, the Miss Globe International contest expanded significantly. The final competition in Turkey was chaired by Süha Özgermi and held at the Halikarnas stage in Bodrum, Muğla, marking a pivotal moment as the pageant grew into a global event with national competitions in various countries.[1]

In 2003, due to retirement, Mr. Süha Özgermi passed the chairmanship to Mr. Rasim Aydin, a fellow RCA board member, who assumed legal ownership of the Miss Globe Organization. Consequently, the international finals, held in Turkey for 16 years, were relocated to Tirana, Albania. This change was announced at a press conference by Mr. Li Sun, honorary president of Charlie See Pictures, and Mr. Petri Bozo, chairman of Deliart Associate. Initially, the agreement to host the pageant in Albania was for one year, later extended to five years at Deliart's request. The Albania chapter concluded with the Miss Globe International 2009 event.[1][2]

In 2023, Manvin Khera from Malaysia won its first crown after sending a representative for over a decade.[3][4][5] Making history for her country as the first Malaysian who won the title.[6]
