Sheโs 26. And sheโs carrying a nation on her shoulders.
Melanie Shiraz Asor, Miss Universe Israel 2025, will stand on one of the worldโs biggest stages โ representing not just beauty, but resilience, purpose, and the voice of a people who refuse to disappear.
This year marks the first time a Miss Palestine will also compete โ backed by powerful sponsorships, global brands, and media momentum. Meanwhile, Melanie is walking into that same spotlight almost entirely on her own. No corporate team. No luxury budget. Just grit, faith, and a deep sense of responsibility to represent Israel with dignity.
Every dress sheโs worn, every appearance sheโs made, every step sheโs taken โ sheโs done it by sheer will and belief that Israel deserves to be seen with honesty and light.
Behind the glamour, thereโs isolation โ and often, hate. Competing as an Israeli woman right now means waking up to online harassment, death threats, and a level of hostility few could withstand. But Melanie doesnโt back down. She believes this stage isnโt just about beauty โ itโs about truth.
Her dream is to turn this platform into something larger โ a voice for advocacy, connection, and understanding. Because for her, this isnโt about winning a crown. Itโs about showing the world who we really are.
