Yes, the Miss France contest is changing.

So what ?

This is essentially the words of Jean-Pierre Foucault, on the eve of the 2022 ceremony which will be held tomorrow evening.

The 75-year-old cult host was asked about the new rules put in place by the organization of the event, led by Alexia Laroche-Joubert.

Transgender people are now accepted, tattoos are no longer prohibited, and the maximum age, previously set at 24, has been removed.

So many changes that are positive, according to the historical presenter of the beauty contest.



“Miss France is the reflection of life.

These are not upheavals, it is the logical evolution of the period in which we are.

If you look at the first Miss France show that I hosted, which was 27 years ago, you will find it very dated.

Including the one I presented ten years ago, ”he explains to TV Magazine.

The Miss France election must be alive, therefore evolving at the same time as society.

And for him, the account is there, since the competition remains "the same great show" with "the same values" while following "a logical evolution of life".

“The Miss France society has been making changes in homeopathic doses for many years and I must say that it has been quite successful for her,” he added.

Passing of the torch

As for knowing when he will stop presenting the ceremony, Jean-Pierre Foucault does not think about it.

And he accepts without problem to co-host the evening.

This year, Sylvie Tellier will be at his side, but everything can still evolve for the next editions.

“It's not a first, we have already done it three or four years ago for two years in a row.

We will share the tasks.

This is her last participation in the Miss France society, it is good that she is in the spotlight.

Which proves that all the tintouin that has been made around is not necessary.

It was she who decided to leave, to lead a new life, she will pass the baton in good intelligence to Cindy Fabre, ”said the host.
