Miss Universe Canada 2006 Alice Panikian is 3/4 Bulgarian and 1/4 Armenian, but associates with both cultures. Her mother is Bulgarian, and her father is half Bulgarian and half Armenian. Her Armenian last name comes from her paternal grandfather. Alice and both of her parents were born in Bulgaria. She has many Bulgarian and Armenian relatives who still live in Bulgaria. She is also proud to be a Canadian. She came to Canada when she was 5. Alice Panikian has dual Bulgarian and Canadian citizenship.

You can go to the link below to see that she is 3/4 Bulgarian and only 1/4 Armenian. Then I don't think it is accurate to call her "Armenian Miss Universe"???? She is the Canadian Miss Universe who was born in Bulgaria.

She is mostly a Bulgarian and representing Canada, that’s the beauty of the whole situation; just having an Armenian last name may have given only media support to Armenian Diaspora, that they are desperate for it other than nothing at all.

Alice is very modern and very international!

Her father has always considered himself Armenian. Her mother is Bulgarian, a woman with exceptional beauty. Alice grew up in Canada; hence she has spent most of her life as Canadian.

Alice and her mother, being immigrants, are another example of the strength of the human spirit. Alice can be a role model and inspiration for many displaced kids.
Good luck and all the best to you, Alice Panician!
