Point in History of the Miss Multiverse International organization
2015-2016 Multiverse Ventures and with Five Time Emmy Award Production company P&L Media, an Emmy award-winning production company renowned for producing groundbreaking TV shows like A Current Affair, Judge Judy, and Last Shot with Judge Gunn. With their expertise in reality TV shows featuring judges, sought to find a fresh approach to the Miss Multiverse International competition. Instead of the traditional format, which relied on expert advice to judge contestants, Miss Multiverse International introduced a new scoring system based on the ‘above the line’ and ‘below the line’ system inspired by the movie Divergent. This scoring system enabled the contestants to demonstrate their diverse range of skills and abilities across multiple challenges, allowing them to be evaluated on a broader set of criteria. The scoring system plays a crucial role in selecting the winner of the competition, who ultimately emerges as the last woman standing. This scoring system is a distinctive aspect of the Miss Multiverse competition, highlighting the parallel between being divergent and the idea of multifaceted women that the competition promotes. Both concepts celebrate the notion that individuals can possess a variety of talents and abilities, making them unique and valuable. Moreover, this scoring system is a new format never used in any other pageant competition, setting it apart from traditional model contests. It is the first of its kind and is known for its transparency, making it a pioneering scoring system in the pageant industry. The system allows the most talented and multifaceted women to rise to the top and become the winner, providing an opportunity to showcase their unique set of skills and abilities.
