The announcement of her win was shared on the Miss Universe YouTube channel, where Xarmina expressed her vision:
“I want to be an agent for positive change in two respects. The first is for our country. Pakistan is scarcely represented internationally across so many industries and I want to enhance our representation on an international stage. In the second respect, I want to have change for women in our country. Pakistan needs strong female leaders that can mobilize its women and empower them to create positive change in society.”
The official Instagram page of Miss Universe Pakistan highlighted her background, stating: “Noor hails from the capital city, Islamabad. She grew up in 9 different countries across 4 continents and studied biology for her bachelor’s and business for her master’s degree. She worked as a venture capital investor in London before deciding to pursue acting and now full-time modeling. In her free time, she enjoys running as it gives her mental clarity and discipline. She feels that there is a lack of Pakistani representation in the international entertainment industry, and as an aspiring actress, hopes to change the status quo and put Pakistan on the map.”
Noor Xarmina is only the second Miss Universe Pakistan, following Erica Rabin who was crowned in 2023.
