🚨🎤💎 HUGE ANNOUNCEMENT - MEET YOUR 2026 MC! 💎🎤🚨
If you have been around the Australian pageant world, chances are SUZI DENT is a name you already know.
And if you don't know Suzi yet... you're about to. ❤️
As Miss & Mr Diamond International celebrates 10 YEARS OF DIAMOND, we wanted someone very special holding the microphone and leading us through our biggest celebration yet.
Someone with personality. Someone with presence. Someone who knows the stage. And someone with one incredible life story.
So we are absolutely delighted to announce...
🎤💎 SUZI DENT - OFFICIAL MC OF MISS & MR DIAMOND INTERNATIONAL 2026! 💎🎤
And what a woman we have joining us.
Suzi has spent more than four decades in Australian television, media and entertainment, building an extraordinary career as an award-winning Hair & Makeup Artist, Special Effects Artist, stylist, entrepreneur, author, international speaker and presenter.
Behind the scenes, Suzi has worked across television, film, commercials, advertising, fashion and media, working alongside actors, celebrities, sporting legends and some of Australia's best-known talent.
In the 1990s, she also founded and built her own successful Sydney hair and makeup agency, creating opportunities for other artists within the industry.
But after decades spent largely behind the camera, at 55 years of age, Suzi decided to do something completely outside her comfort zone.
She entered a pageant.
And she didn't just enter...
👑 SHE WON.
Suzi was crowned Mrs Earth Australia 2017, earning the opportunity to represent Australia internationally in Las Vegas. and received the international title Mrs Earth Health 2017. 🇦🇺👑
It became another chapter in a life that has been anything but ordinary.
Suzi is also an author, international speaker and survivor advocate who has become known internationally for having the courage to use her own experiences to speak about resilience, justice, consent and the importance of finding your voice.
Her story has reached millions of people around the world, with Suzi appearing in major television documentaries, news and current-affairs programs, interviews, podcasts and print media across Australia and internationally.
Rather than allowing some of the most difficult chapters of her life to define her, Suzi has used them to help others find the confidence to speak, be heard and create change.
Today she speaks to audiences about courage, resilience, confidence, reinvention and finding your voice when it matters most.
And perhaps that's what we love most about Suzi.
She isn't just someone who can stand on a stage and hold a microphone.
She has lived.
She has built businesses.
She has worked behind the camera.
She has stepped in front of it.
She has represented Australia.
She has won titles.
She has told her story on an international stage.
She has used her voice when it mattered.
And she knows firsthand that sometimes the most extraordinary things happen when you have the courage to step outside the box people expect you to stay in.
That feels very Diamond to us. 💎
So for our 10th anniversary, we couldn't think of a more fitting person to help guide us through what is going to be an incredibly special night.
Suzi will be there to bring the energy, the humour, the warmth and the personality, while helping us celebrate every contestant who steps onto that Diamond stage.
🎤 SUZI DENT, WE ARE ABSOLUTELY DELIGHTED TO HAVE YOU AS OUR 2026 MC.
Welcome to the Diamond family. ❤️💎
We cannot wait to have you with us on the night.
👑 MISS & MR DIAMOND INTERNATIONAL 2026 👑
💎 CELEBRATING 10 YEARS OF DIAMOND 💎
