Since it's inception in 1952, the "Miss Universe Pageant" has given the
world's most beautiful women from more than 80 countries something to
vie for. Usually held in a different city each year, the live event
spotlights contestants' performances in three categories: swimsuit,
evening gown and interview. Along with the coveted title, one lucky
winner wins a contract with the Miss Universe Organisation and the use
of an apartment in Trump Tower in New York City. For one year Miss
Universe travels the world to raise awareness of AIDS, stress the
importance of disease control, and to spread a general message of peace. The 64th Annual Miss Universe Pageant will air this year on FOX TV on Sunday, 20 December 2015.
