The history of MrWorld

When the MissWorld contest was started in the 1950, a similar event was staged for men in an attempt to offer both sexes equal opportunity. It seemed at the time the cultural climate was not ready for this equivalence. By 1994, the Miss World Organisation felt that if tried again, a contest drawing the most desirable men from around the World might be well received. In 1996, the first MrWorld was held in Turkey with great success. 10 years on, and the Mr World concept of presenting men with, not just great looks, but men with style, charm, intelligence and strength is entertaining millions worldwide. The search is on for the World most desirable man

The History of Miss World

In the last half-century, the world's No. 1 pageant has enjoyed its fair share of ups and downs. It all started way back in 1951 as part of that year's Festival of Britain celebrations. Officially titled the "Festival Bikini Contest," it was the British press who dubbed it "Miss World."

The media frenzy welcomed a global audience bigger than international events like the World Cup and the Olympic Games. Fifty years later, it attracts an annual audience of 2.5 billion people.

Founder Eric Morley, a former bingo hall manager, originally intended the contest to be a one-time event. But when the Miss Universe Pageant entered the equation the following year, he decided to make his show an annual one. For Eric and his wife, Julia, it then became a life's work and passion. The amazing Eric Morley was loved and revered by a great many people, from the most famous to the most humble. He touches all their lives and made a difference to so many.
