participation in Miss Universe Malaysia
2013 to balance between her studies and the pageant. However, she has
decided to take a break from her study for one year to chase her dream in Miss Astro Chinese International Pageant.
Besides, one of the other
top 15 finalists, 黄思嘉 currently is a local English radio station
host. She has received English education since young but she hopes to take the
pageant contest as an opportunity to improve her Mandarin. Although she
possesses a pretty complexion with big eyes, she was criticized by the judges
for her body figure. In regard with that, she explained that there were some
family issues lately which caused her to eat a lot to reduce her pressure. In
order to take part in the competition, she has been trying hard to reduce her
body weights in order to regain a better body figure.

quality and potential. They hope that these candidates can be “levelled-up”
through the training, make-over and stylizing in this competition so that they
can shine on stage next time!
When asked about the major
mistakes done by the candidates during audition, the judges stated the major
mistakes is that many contestants chose not to wear high heels during the
audition. Eric mentioned that high
heels is very essential in helping the candidate to present their best
appearance. Although some candidates explained that they didn’t wear high heels
because they wanted to present the natural side of them while some explained
that high heels are not suitable for their talent performance, the judges felt
that they should bring along a pair of high heels for their audition.
