National pageant notes

Returning countries and territories

  • Namibia, Northern Marianas, St. Vincent & Grenadines and Sweden last competed in 2006.
  • Bulgaria, Lebanon, and Zambia last competed in 2007.

Replacement

  •  Bulgaria: Elitsa Lubenova was the official delegate to Miss Universe 2009, however she and Miss Bulgaria World, Antonia Petrova switched their positions. Elitsa will compete in Miss World 2009 and Antonia in Miss Universe 2009. The scandal started because Antonia Petrova had breast implants, and the Miss Bulgaria Organization said that "Breast implants were more accepted in Miss Universe than in Miss World".
  •  Serbia: Dragana Atlija, Miss Serbia 2007 will not compete in Miss Universe 2009. The 1st runner-up, Miss Serbia 2007, Zorana Tasovac will take over.
  •  Vietnam: According to the new rules of hosting beauty pageants in Vietnam, the Miss Universe Vietnam contest have been postponed in 2009. But Vietnam will send one former winner or runner-up to Bahamas, two possible choices are Vo Hoang Yen, Miss Universe Vietnam 2008 first runner-up and Phan Thi Ngoc Diem, Miss Tourism Vietnam 2008. The name of the delegate would be announced in April.[74] Finally, Vo Hoang Yen became the official nominee to compete in Miss Universe 2009.
