            On Thursday, December 1, Prague’s Roxy Club hosted the first ever Miss Charles University 
            The event brought up a lot of emotions and split the academic community into its opponents
            It also attracted a lot of visitors and proved that Charles University female students are

            beautiful and smartest of all.

            The finalists were selected at an audition which took place a month earlier. Overall eight

            chosen whom we had a chance to see at the grand finale. The door of the Roxy opened at aro

            with two live concerts by the Moow and Nano bands. Those of you who attended the after-par
            Rouge after the student fair will be familiar with the latter at least. As is often the ca
            of events, the Miss Charles University programme was a little delayed, so the beauty conte

            underway a few moments later than scheduled.
            The show was opened by an evening gown competition, with dresses provided by the Krakora d
            followed by a show of skirts by AKARI and speeches delivered by the finalists. It was obvi

            their introductory cameo in her own unique way. But what they shared in common was charm, 
            the rest of the evening continued in this spirit. The contest also included a special disc

            girls performing different and often quite difficult tasks. All of them managed that perfe
            would expect no less from Charles University students. The closing discipline, which at le
            of the audience would not want to miss, was a swimsuit competition.

            The evening also included an accompanying programme. Visitors could try out Nintendo Wii g
            the cloakroom. They could play different sports on one while the other one featured a danc
            where the players had to dance according to what appeared on the screen. In the VIP zone t

            The evening culminated at around 11 pm with the announcement of the results. The first tit

            later. However it was by mistake. An error had occurred and Lenka had to pass her sash to 
                                                                                                      
            announcement of the overall winner was all the more surprising. The title of the first eve
            spectators looked somewhat confused, perhaps wondering whether it was for real this time. 
            After the ending of the official programme and the announcement of the winners, all the fi
                                                                                                      
            cords and omnipresent cameramen we managed to conduct a short interview with the winner.  
            Is this your first beauty contest? What prompted you to apply?                            
            I had taken part in one such contest before. I applied because this was the first year and
                                                                                                      
            Last week, an email message was sent to all the organizers and university representatives 
            equality, linking the name of a prestigious institution with commercial entertainment. Wha
                                                                                                      
                                                                                                      
                                                                                                      

            I had expected something like that to happen but I believe if the university leadership ha
            favour of the idea, nothing like that would have taken place. The leadership was represent
            jury. Our university organizes a lot of cultural events, so why not a Miss contest? There 

            student among the candidates at the audition, so there was no inequality.
            I’m not going to ask what you felt like when your crown was being taken away from you. Whe
            announced, weren’t you afraid that it was again some kind of mistake? What were your thoug

            To tell you the truth I don’t really remember. When I handed the crown over to Markéta, an
            right afterwards so I didn’t have time to even process it. It was a surprise both times. I
            is going to stay with me

            What would you tell the girls who would like to apply next year?
            To definitely give it a try. This is a contest with a great potential. This was the first 
            believe the upcoming ones will be even better.
