Substance Triumphs Over Glamour

 

The Miss Universe Egypt competition consisted of four hard rounds: a personal interview, a swimwear round, an evening gown round, and a final question. Tantawy's depth of understanding and compassion shone through at the final Q&A. When asked about the persistence of poverty in many areas around the world, her response was perceptive.

Tantawy identified the core cause of world poverty as a lack of key resources, particularly education and economic possibilities. Her proposed solution, which focuses on building a micro-funding environment through partnership with local and international groups, displayed not only her awareness of the issues, but also her determination to make a concrete difference.

The panel of judges, which included Egyptian actress Mai Omar, Filipino actress Arci Munoz, and Miss Universe Philippines 2022 Celeste Cortesi, had a difficult assignment in selecting the winner. Tantawy's grace, poise, and vision distinguished her as a remarkable candidate who merited the crown.

Tantawy, who will represent Egypt at the global Miss Universe competition in El Salvador on November 18, bears not only a nation's hopes but also the opportunity to create a lasting impression on the world stage. Her story illustrates the power of substance above appearance and is an encouragement to young women everywhere.
