Miss Chinese (Vancouver) Pageant

Miss Chinese (Vancouver) Pageant (Chinese: 溫哥華華裔小姐競選) or MCV for short is an annual beauty pageant organized by Fairchild TV that selects Vancouver's representative for the annual Miss Chinese International Pageant that is held in Hong Kong, organized by TVB. The pageant replaced the Miss Vancouver Chinatown Pageant, which selected Vancouver's representatives to the Miss Chinese International Pageant from 1988 to 1995.

History

The pageant began in 1995. Contestants must be of at least partial Chinese descent and have resided in Canada for continuous period of 6 months on the day the application form is signed. The age requirement is 17-27 (expanded in 2011). The contestants must have never been married or pregnant or committed a crime.[1] The pageant is held at the Vancouver Convention Centre in December of every year. However, in 2009 the location was moved to the River Rock Casino Resort in Richmond, British Columbia due to the media currently taking place at the Vancouver Convention Centre for the Vancouver 2010 Winter Games.[2]

MCV at Miss Chinese International Pageant

Vancouver has generally been fairly successful at the Miss Chinese International Pageant (MCI) despite not placing in the top 3 until 1993, when Miss Vancouver Chinatown 1992, Elaine Barbara Der finished as 2nd runner up. In 2001, Miss Chinese Vancouver produced Vancouver's first MCI winner, Bernice Liu. Liu later joined TVB and is currently an actress. She was succeeded by Shirley Zhou in 2002. Linda Chung and Leanne Li then both won the Miss Chinese International 2004 and 2005 titles, represectively. Vancouver has produced 7 winners and including two back-to-back wins (2001 and 2002; 2004 and 2005), a record no other city has yet to break.

Note: The winners from 1987 to 1994 (competing at Miss Chinese International 1988 to 1995) are Miss Vancouver Chinatown, the pageant that was replaced by MCV.
