Miss Universe 2012, the 61st Miss Universe pageant, was held on 19 December 2012 at PH Live at Planet Hollywood Resort & Casino, Las Vegas, Nevada, United States. Leila Lopes of Angola crowned her successor Olivia Culpo of the United States at the end of the event. 89 contestants competed in this year's pageant, same as last year.

Organization

The Dominican Republic negotiated with the Miss Universe Organization to organize the pageant in Punta Cana but was not granted the hosting rights due to the country not being able to fulfill the requirements asked by the Miss Universe Organization. The backing out of the Dominican Republic caused the Miss Universe Organization to host the pageant in Las Vegas, Nevada in December deviating from the customary mid-year scheduling of the pageant.[1]

Host city

Planet Hollywood Resort and Casino, Las Vegas, Nevada, Miss Universe 2012 official venue

Miss Universe had been struggling to find a venue for this year's pageant. In March 2012, it was announced that the pageant would be moved to December because the broadcaster, NBC, could not broadcast the pageant at the same time as the 2012 Summer Olympics and the United States presidential election.

In April 2012, it was announced that Bangladesh would host the pageant on 13 December. In July 2012, the Bangladeshi president announced that they will not host the pageant because of financial constraints.

It was rumored that Guadalajara of Mexico, Isla Margarita of Venezuela, Sun City of South Africa, and Jakarta of Indonesia were to host the competition. But, in August 2012, the Dominican government received a proposal from the Miss Universe Organization to host the competition on 11 December. The Dominican Republic had once hosted the Miss Universe pageant in 1977 in Santo Domingo. The Miss Universe Organization was considering hosting the final night at the Hard Rock Resort and Casino in Punta Cana. However, The Dominican government said that the country was not able to provide any kind of financial assistance to the pageant.

Finally, in September 2012, it was confirmed by the Miss Universe Organization that the 2012 Miss Universe pageant would take place at the Planet Hollywood Resort & Casino in Las Vegas, Nevada, on 19 December. It was the fourth time the Miss Universe pageant was held in Las Vegas, the other three times being in 1991, 1996, and 2010.[177]
