The new owners of Miss Universe
And so it has come to officially pass. WME (William Morris Endeavor) and IMG Models are the new owners of Miss Universe. While the news is no longer new (after it has already been leaked by other individuals prior to the official statements in this post), it still bears a tinge of bittersweet feelings now that everything has been signed, sealed and delivered.
The changes to be implemented in our favorite beauty pageant, including Miss USA and Miss Teen USA, are worth anticipating. Will the innovations sit well with fans and followers worldwide? Or will it be – as many individuals think – downhill from this point? I would like to cut the new owners some slack. Who knows? It could be a blessing in disguise that Donald Trump (left photo) is no longer part of it all.
WME/IMG is now looking at negotiating with new domestic TV partners. I just hope that there will be renewed enthusiasm all around.
Here’s wishing WME/IMG all the best. :-)
