Representative as Miss France 2008

Following the controversy which arose on 21 December 2007, triggered by the publication of private photos of Valérie Bègue in the magazine Entrevue, somewhat doubtful of the newly-elected Miss France, chairwoman of Miss France Committee, Geneviève de Fontenay, called for the resignation and dismissal of Bègue, two weeks after her reign as Miss France 2008.

After an agreement, Bègue was able to retain her title, but was adjudicated that she will not participate in any future Miss France contest, Miss Universe 2008, nor any contest in the presence of Geneviève de Fontenay.

On 6 January 2008, the President of the Miss France committee proclaimed Laura Tanguy, second runner-up of Valérie Bègue, as the successor of the title, alongside a mandate to represent France in the higher levels of the Miss World and Miss Universe pageants, and to accompany Geneviève de Fontenay to other regional elections (first runner-up, Miss New Caledonia, did not wish to hold the post for reasons relating to her studies).
