Miss Grand Slam is a poll on Global Beauties, a famous website on international
beauty pageants, to choose the beauty queens of beauty queens in the world.

Global Beauties selected the 87 contestants of Miss Grand Slam from winners or
contestants from the finals of five largest beauty pageants in the world: Miss
World, Miss Universe, Miss Earth, Miss International and Miss Tourism Queen
International. However, Miss Tourism Queen International was canceled this year
so contestants from the Miss Super-national pageant replaced them.

From 87 contestants, Global Beauties will select the top 50, the top 20 and
finally the winner.

The winner will receive a campaign medal named Yulia, designed by Greg Borowski
in 1999. The medal is named after Russian beauty queen Yulia Lemigova, who was
voted as the Most beautiful girl in the Grand Slam in the 20th century.

Last year the Miss Grand Slam went to the first runner up of the Miss World
pageant, Perla Beltran from Mexico.
