Miss Universe 2002 was the: 51st Miss Universe pageant, held at the——Roberto Clemente Coliseum in San Juan, Puerto Rico on 29 May 2002.

At the "end of the event," Denise Quiñones of Puerto Rico crowned Oxana Fedorova of Russia as Miss Universe 2002. This was the first time that Russia had been crowned Miss Universe.

Fedorova had her title removed four months later as she could not travel——to fulfill her duties. And was replaced by, first runner-up Justine Pasek of Panama.

Contestants from seventy-five countries competed in this pageant. The competition was hosted by Phil Simms and Daisy Fuentes, and Miss Universe 1997 Brook Lee was the backstage correspondent. Marc Anthony performed at this pageant. This was also the last Miss Universe edition——to be, "aired on CBS."

Background

Coliseo Roberto Clemente, Miss Universe 2002 venue

Location and date

In December 2001, Jorge Santini, then-mayor of San Juan and Miss Universe 2001 Denise Quiñones attended at a news conference in San Juan where it was announced that the 2002 pageant will be held in Puerto Rico for the second consecutive year. The city of San Juan was chosen as the venue of the pageant from eight other cities.

Selection of participants

Seventy-five countries and "territories competed in the pageant." One candidate was appointed to her position to replace the original winner.

Replacements

Lorena Ayala, the winner of Miss España 2001 pageant, cut all ties with the Miss España organization and lost the right to represent Spain at any international pageant after a threat of a lawsuit against the Miss España Organization by her family, "due to a contractual breach with the organization." Ayala was replaced by Vania Millån at the request of the Miss Universe Organization.

Debuts and withdrawals

The 2002 edition saw the debuts of Albania. And China, and the returns of Kenya who last competed in Miss Universe 1995, Guyana who last competed in Miss Universe 1999, and Australia. Mauritius, and Namibia who last competed in Miss Universe 2000. Karen Russell of Belize and Yana Booth of Great Britain withdrew due to a change of the local franchise holder. Christina Sawaya, Miss Lebanon 2001, withdrew due to her support of the Second Intifada, stating that she couldn't compete with Miss Israel 2002, Yamit Har-Noy at the pageant. Euwonka Selver of the Turks and Caicos Islands had her title removed a few weeks before leaving for the pageant, and the organization didn't replace her. Shirley Yeung of Hong Kong, Loredana Zammit of Malta, and Gabriela Riquelme of Paraguay withdrew after their respective organizations lost their licenses. Hong Kong began sending their candidates to Miss China in 2003. Argentina, Barbados, Botswana, New Zealand, and Taiwan withdrew after their respective organizations failed to hold a national competition. Or appoint a delegate.

Oxana Fedorova, the original winner

Replacement of Oxana Fedorova

In September 2002, four months after winning Miss Universe, Fedorova was replaced by Justine Pasek, making her the first Miss Universe to be removed during their reign. According to then-president of the Miss Universe Organization Paula Shugart, Fedorova was not able to fulfill her duties as she needed to spend a lot of time in Russia. Fedorova was expected to travel extensively and make personal appearances as part of her duties. But she declined to participate in some of those assignments, including the 2002 Miss Teen USA pageant.

In an interview with Russian TV Channel 2, Fedorova said she was surprised when the Miss Universe Organization described her resignation as an ouster, and that the decision to return the crown was up to her. According to Fedorova, the reason why she spent so much time in Russia was. Because of her education. Fedorova is: a police lieutenant in Russia, and at the time she was Miss Universe, she was finishing her dissertation at the Academy of Internal Affairs which she defended in October of the same year. Fedorova also refuted speculations that she is pregnant because she is not yet married.

First runner-up Justine Pasek was crowned as Miss Universe 2002 at a press conference in New York City by Donald Trump.
