The highly anticipated election of Miss Nord-Pas-de-Calais 2024 took place this Saturday in Liévin.
It was Miss Villeneuve-d’Ascq Sabah Aib who received her crown from the hands of Ève Gilles, the last Miss France.
Will she succeed him on the charts next December on the Futuroscope stage?
Reading the comments on social networks, she was the clear favorite. And she did not disappoint. Sabah Aib, 18, was named Miss Nord-Pas-de-Calais during an evening which took place in front of 5,000 spectators at the Liévin Arena. This second year law student triumphed over her seventeen rivals after having already won the title of Miss Villeneuve-d’Ascq a few months earlier.
“Unlike other women, I can’t say it was a childhood dream“, declared the winner to France 3.”Before starting, I had prejudices about the Misses and I realized that it was a very open world, with young women like me, with whom I really became friends.”
As tradition dictates, Sabah Aib received her crown from the hands of the previous Miss Nord-Pas-Calais. A certain Ève Gilles, who later became Miss France 2024! What if she succeeded him on the list? Since 2015, this local election has already provided five winners including Camille Cerf and Maëva Coucke, who both appeared on the jury on Saturday.
In 2017, Iris Mittenaere even became the first French woman crowned Miss Universe since 1953. The road is obviously still long for Sabah Aib. Next step? The Miss France election which will take place on December 14 at the Futuroscope amusement park, in Vienne. Previously, the 30 contenders will take a preparation trip to Ivory Coast, a first.
