Crown Up ! - International
Miss Universe Bahrain 2022
Evlin Abdullah-Khalifa from Riffa has been crowned the second Miss Universe Bahrain, but the first during a ceremony streamed on Miss Universe Bahrain’s official YouTube page on September 11, 2022. A year after Manar Deyani became the first beauty queen to represent Bahrain at the Miss Universe pageant, Khalifa takes the crown. Khalifa impressed the judges with her answer to the question: “When do you think a woman becomes empowered?“
“I think a woman becomes empowered when she knows herself, when she knows her values and when she knows what she is capable of,” she said. “An empowered woman is a role model of the people and whose actions lead to success. And I’m here to be that woman to lead all the people to success and believe in themselves.”
Khalifa, who was born to a Bahraini father and Russian mother, is a trained pianist, and took courses in dancing and taekwondo. She is passionate about education and believes it is never too late to learn something new in life. A graduate in finance and banking, she is pursuing online classes to master her Arabic and English skills, as well as psychology. She has also done some professional modelling work, having starred in a make-up advertisement for Dior.
She is also outspoken about anorexia, having being diagnosed with it, and is keen to spread awareness and start conversations about the eating disorder, leading a healthy lifestyle and well-being.
