ABOUT MRS. UNIVERSE
MRS. UNIVERSE doesn't mind much about the age of the delegate/candidate as long as you have a nice and pleasing personality and good character and you are not 60 years old. So it's 59 and below (middle age, 30's and 20's) and you should be married, of course. Though it's a beauty competition, MRS. UNIVERSE doesn't mind very much about physical beauty (not that so vain) as they are mature and responsible women.
In MRS. UNIVERSE, BEAUTY or BEAUTIFUL means not only just physical beauty (of face and body which is the very common concept of beauty of so many people in the world) but IT IS the TOTALITY OF PERSONALITY OF THE WOMAN (INTELLIGENCE, GOOD CHARACTER OR THE SO-CALLED "INNER BEAUTY" AND, YES, PHYSICAL BEAUTY). As you would see, in their swimsuit competition, they wear only 1-piece swimsuit (not that skimpy bikini!) and even with a scarf-like cloth wrapped around their waists (not showing too much skin) for modesty.
The purpose of the wimsuit competition is to show and reveal that even if they are already married women, wives or mothers, they can still maintain their good looks, trimmed figures, still physicaly fit and healthy. Thus, they serve as good inspiration and encouragement to others to take good care of their body and health.
MRS. UNIVERSE is looking for the Woman of the Universe who is more than a wife and a mother, the Woman of the Universe who is the epitome of the modern married woman of today, with the important roles that she does and plays in the global society and in the universe.

Through its annual contest-event, the aim and objective of Mrs. Universe is to foster friendly relations and international understanding among the nations of the world.
MRS. UNIVERSE was organized for these worthy, universal cause and purpose:
"To celebrate, honor, and uplift the image of today's women of the universe who are responsible for the home and family, and who play important roles not only in the family (as wives and mothers) but also in the society and global community (as career women in different fields), and to promote and uphold worldwide the significance of marriage, parenthood and family, and good family values as well."
The Mrs. Universe Theme and Motto this year is "Women of the World--against Violence and Human Trafficking."
VAIDA RAGENAITE, 36, of Lithuania, is the reigning MRS. UNIVERSE 2009. "This contest has a higher aim than only showing your beauty," Ragenaite said. The pageant paves the way for the candidates to take part in various charity auctions.
