Viktória Podmanická was adjudged the first runner-up at the finale of Miss Slovensko 2020 as she earned the title of Miss International Slovakia 2020 and the right to represent her country at Miss International 2020. She succeeds Miss International Slovakia 2019 Alica Ondrášová. The finale of Miss Slovensko 2020 was held on 14th August 2020 at DoubleTree by Hilton, Slovakia.
Viktória Podmanická was a total stunner at the national competition. She also won the Miss Sympatia 2020 title and received the largest number of SMS votes. Miss Slovensko organization also took to their official social media just hours ago as they talked about her participation, “Our-your EVA Miss Sympathy 2020 @viktoria.podm. She received the largest number of SMS votes and later also the I.vicemiss 2020 crown. Photographer @lukaskimlickashe was called Betka in the first photo shoot and since we had two Victoria in the competition, Betka is still calling her. She is like Elizabeth of Perinbaba. Others say like Meghan Markle or Pocahontas. In any case, she is a beauty with a good heart, worldview and charity has been helping for years. She really deserved the title.”
The 18-year-old student of the JG Tajovský grammar school in Banská Bystrica is not just beautiful physically but also spiritually. She also volunteers for the disabled children and is also within the framework of PONS (Assistance to Persons Incapable of Independence).
Viktória Podmanická also took to her official social media to thank everyone for their wishes on her win as she wrote, “Thank You. Thank you all very much for your support and incredible energy! My little one in the final 12 was already a huge success for me. I was happy, I enjoyed every single day all those months. Came the final evening, I stood in the wings completely without stage fright and I was just waiting for when it all off! The moment you announced my name for the title Miss Sympathy EVA 2020 I was the happiest person on planet. The 1st Vicemiss Slovakia 2020 title was announced. When they said my name, I looked at @alica_ondrasovathat whether it really is me. By placing the crown on my head I could no longer express such a lot of joy, so I cried. I still can't believe that I will be the one to represent our beautiful country at the world competition @missinternationalofficial. Thank you all very much again.”
Last year, Alica Ondrášová Miss International Slovakia 2019 represented her country at Miss International 2019 but unfortunately failed to place in the Top 15. The country is yet to pioneer its win in Miss International.
