Apameh Schönauer, 39, was crowned Miss Germany 2024 on February 24. She became the target of hateful and racist comments on social networks.

The mother of two children, an architect by profession, breaks the usual beauty clichés of miss competitions. Apameh embodies the face of a major reform of the Miss competition in Germany dating from 2019, the criteria of which are now focused less on looks and beauty and more about personality and commitment. A change that is not yet to everyone's taste.
