Check out the Miss Universe 2024 winner prize money and crown price
Victoria Kjaer Theilvig appeared victorious in the final round of questions last night in Mexico City.
After becoming Miss Universe 2024, Victoria Kjaer Theilvig said, “I stand here today because I wanted to make history, and that’s what I‘m doing tonight, so never give up.”
Victoria Kjaer Theilvig’s gem-encrusted crown was one of the first awards the winner received on stage, but unlike her predecessors, Victoria will not be taking home the $5.5 million Force For Good crown.

Rather, she is the first to don a brand-new piece by the French Filipino jewellery company Jewelmer called Light of Infinity. It is set with diamonds and pearls from the South Sea, and although the precise price is yet unknown, it is estimated to be worth about $5 million.
The Light of Infinity crown was launched by the Miss Universe Organization, led by Mexican mogul Raúl Rocha Cantú and Thai transwoman billionaire Anne Jakkaphong Jakrajutatip.
With 23 South Sea Pearls and diamonds, the crown features wave-like designs inspired by the ocean. Its centerpiece, a golden pearl, is imagined as a sun with brilliant diamond rays and the crown took 5 years and 377 steps to complete.
In addition, Victoria Kjaer Theilvig will get a salary of $250,000 for the upcoming year as she fulfils her duties as Miss Universe but no prize money.

In addition to holding the title, the Miss Universe winner is required to use it effectively throughout the world with a busy schedule that includes social events, charitable endeavours, humanitarian causes, celebrity appearances, and much more. All of these work-related expenses will be paid for, and she will live in an opulent apartment in New York City while doing her tasks.
Additionally, sponsors of the Miss Universe Organization and those who helped the beauty queen herself typically give the winner a lot of expensive presents. Typically, this covers a year’s supply of skincare goods, hair and beauty products, fashion, modelling and photography, and stylists.
Victoria might also get assistance to fulfil her professional ambitions after her reign. Special prizes are also anticipated for the runner-up, Nigeria’s Chidimma Adetshina, as well as other title winners, such as Trinidad & Tobago’s Miss Congeniality Jenelle Thongs.
Victoria Kjaer Theilvig’s career
After participating in Miss Denmark 2021 and finishing as the second runner-up, Kjaer Theilvig started pageantry. She was crowned Miss Grand Denmark the following year and placed in the top twenty while representing Denmark at Miss Grand International 2022 in Indonesia.
Due to inadequate preparation, Emma Heyst, the winner of Miss Denmark 2024, declined to compete at Miss Universe 2024 in September 2024. Later, the Miss Denmark Organization selected and appointed Theilvig to represent Denmark.
