Background
History
Paraguay made its debutant at Miss Grand International in 2013, with the representation of a Asunción-based fashion model Sendy Cáceres, followed by Giselle Sotomayor in 2014, but both of them finished as non-placement. After the country had no licensee in 2015, Gabriel Roman of MGM Productions, the Asunción organizer company, acquired the franchise in the following year,[1][3] and subsequently appointed Cindy Nordmann Arias to represent the country at Miss Grand International 2016, held in Las Vegas of the United States,[10] unfortunately, also went unplaced.[11]
Under the management of MGM Productions, the first contest of Miss Grand Paraguay finally happened in 2017, featuring 16 national finalists who were selected by various local licensees as well as the national organizer.[12][10] Its final coronation event was broadcast on La Tele,[12][13][10] in which Lía Duarte Ashmore of Guairá won the main title, she was also placed among the top 20 finalists after participating in the 5th edition of Miss Grand International in Vietnam.[14][7] Since then, the pageant has been held annually to determine the country representatives for such an international contest.[15][16]
The pageant, originally scheduled to be held on 15 March, was canceled for the first time in 2020, resulting from the spike of SARS-CoV-2 Delta variant positive cases in Paraguay. The organizer decided to appoint Daisy Lezcano of Isla Pucú, one of the pageant candidates, to participate at the international stage.[17][18] Meanwhile, the remainder of delegates goes to compete in the 2021 edition instead.[17]
In 2022, Kendal Hirschfeld, also known as La Comadre on social media, became the first openly transgender to compete for the Miss Grand Paraguay title.[19][20][21]
