Miss Universe Pakistan 2024 is Noor Xarmina


Noor Xarmina was revealed as the winner of Miss Universe Pakistan 2024 on Saturday, July 20 during the pageant's broadcast on the official Miss Universe YouTube channel.

The 29-year-old venture capitalist, model and actress hailing from Islamabad will represent Pakistan at Miss Universe 2024 in Mexico this November.

She succeeds Erica Robin, the first-ever Miss Universe Pakistan and a Top 20 semifinalist at Miss Universe 2023 last November in El Salvador.

Nimra Jacob was named first runner-up, while Karen Pinto, Anzela Abbasi, Hoor Mahaveera, and Zainad Raza were the second, third, and fourth runners-up, respectively.

"I think balancing humility and confidence is best showcased at a pageant because, you learn to work as a team, this pageant feels more like a team sport than an individual competitive beauty contest," said the new Miss Universe Pakistan.

"I have learned so much about my weaknesses and strengths by learning around my colleagues and these girls that I'm going to remember for the rest of my life. I tried to stay humbled and show humility myself by just being grateful for the experience," she added.
