She also managed to surpass 70 international rivals to win the Miss Intercontinental Asia & Oceania 2024 sub-title.

Khanh Linh, a student of the Vietnam National University of Agriculture, stands at 1.76 metres tall with body measurements of 84-60-96 cm. She first rose to prominence by clinching Top 10 and Top 5 finishes at both Miss World Vietnam 2022 and 2023, respectively.

The 22-year-old beauty then went on to win the first runner-up title of Miss Grand Vietnam 2023, thereby meeting the criteria to compete at the 2024 Miss Intercontinental pageant.

The Miss Intercontinental pageant was first held back in 1971, with this year marking the 52nd edition of the beauty contest. The 2024 edition got underway in Egypt from November 20 to December 8, with the crown eventually going to Maria Cepero of Puerto Rico.

The competition is one of the world’s most prestigious global beauty pageants, alongside Miss World, Miss Universe, and Miss International. Indeed, it has since grown to become the ultimate showcase of female beauty and success.

Previously, Le Nguyen Bao Ngoc of Vietnam was crowned Miss Intercontinental 2022, marking the best result achieved by a local beauty at the global beauty pageant so far.

Last year witnessed Le Nguyen Ngoc Hang bring home the second runner-up title at Miss Intercontinental 2023.
