Miss France pageant accused of going ‘woke’ for crowning beauty queen with short hair

They weren’t feeling like Miss Congeniality. 

A bizarre argument broke out at the Miss France beauty pageant, after an “androgynous” contestant with short hair won for the first time on Sunday night.

Eve Gilles, 20, from Nord-Pas-de-Calais in France was crowned by previous winner Indira Ampiot as 7.5 million TV viewers tuned in over the weekend.

The Dunkirk-born Gillies made history as the first winner in the pageant’s 103-year history who does not have long hair, since she sports a pixie cut.  

However, not all viewers agreed with this choice. 

After the judges chose Gilles as Miss France 2024, there was an uproar. 

“Miss France is no longer a beauty contest but a woke contest which is based on inclusiveness,” one user wrote on X, formerly known as Twitter.

“She doesn’t look anything like a Miss France,” another angry viewer slammed, according to the Daily Mail.

“We don’t care about her haircut but the ­androgynous body is obviously there to serve as woke,” another person said.
