The other Miss Europe
The unofficial Miss Europe
pageants, run by the Comite Officiel et International Miss Europe. has not
been fully documented. It was established in 1950 by Jean Raibaut,
with headquarters in Paris, France. He unsuccessfully tried to
make his pageant more prestigious than the official Miss Europe contests (run by Mondial Events Organization,
also headquartered in Paris, France).
Mondial Events Organisation sued Comite Officiel et International Miss
Europe in 2000 to stop them from using the title Miss Europe. The 2004
event seems to have been the last unofficial Miss Europe pageant. |
