MISS FRANCE COMMITTEE PRESIDENT GENEVIÈVE DE FONTENAY PLANS TO START HER OWN CONTEST TO RIVAL MISS FRANCE MISS France Committee president Geneviève de Fontenay plans to start her own contest
to rival Miss France - claiming the current producers have degraded the pageant’s values. Ms de Fontenay, who organises the regional heats, said a nude photo scandal over Miss Paris, who
then appeared on a reality show filmed by Miss France producers Endemol, was the last straw. It follows a 2008 row when winner Valérie Bègue was allowed to keep her crown despite revelations
she took part in a “sexual and blasphemous” photoshoot, where she licked yoghurt off man’s chest and posed on a crucifix. Endemol which has televised the final since 2002, say Ms de
Fontenay’s contract bans her from starting a rival show.
