Tereza Fajksová (born 17 May 1989 in Ivančice) is a Czech model, public administration specialist, environmentalist, and an international beauty pageant titleholder. She competed in and won the Miss Earth 2012 beauty pageant. Fajksová is the first delegate from the Czech Republic to win the Miss Earth title. She is also the first European delegate since 2002 and the third European to be crowned Miss Earth.
Biography
Fajksová comes from a small town in the south of Ivančice in the Czech Republic, where she spent her childhood with her grandparents, parents and brother. She has natural blonde hair and blue eyes. She attended elementary school at TG Masaryk in Ivančice and graduated from high school at the Louis Danka Sports Gymnasium in Brno. She has lived in Brno since her high school years.
Fajksova is a Public Administration graduate and hopes to pursue a second degree in Economics. Before she started her modeling career, she was a volleyball player. As captain of the team from Brno (Brno Kralovopolska Extraliga Volleyball Team), her team won three junior national championships in Czech Republic. Her career in volleyball ended when she had an injury which paved her way in the world of fashion and modeling.
Pageantry
Prior to being crowned Miss Earth Czech Republic 2012 and Miss Earth 2012, Fajksová previously placed second runner-up in Miss Tourism Queen of the Year International 2010 and placed in the Top 24 of Miss Bikini International 2011.
Czech Miss 2012
Fajksova competed in the 2012 edition of the annual Czech Miss beauty pageant which was held on 31 March 2012 at the Karlin Musical Theatre, Prague. She emerged as one of the three winners and bagged the title "Czech Miss Earth 2012" which earned her the right to represent the Czech Republic in the Miss Earth 2012 international pageant.
Miss Earth 2012
At the age of 23, Fajksová was crowned Miss Earth 2012, during the 12th Miss Earth coronation night held at the Versailles Palace in Alabang, Muntinlupa City, Philippines. She beat 79 other international delegates in a competition that took sustainable energy as its central theme, following the United Nations General Assembly’s declaration of 2012 International Year of Sustainable Energy for All.
The top four delegates were asked one question prior to the conclusion of the pageant, “What is your defining moment as a woman?” Fajksová, without the assistance of an interpreter, acknowledged her disfluency in the English language, and replied: “I’m so sorry but I don’t understand the question. I will try to send this message: We have to protect Mother Earth. She gives us everything we need in our lives. So let’s respect her so she’ll respect us.” Even though she did not understand the final question, she was confident and delivered an improvised answer through a meaningful message about protecting the environment and the earth which brought her the title of Miss Earth 2012.
She fell to the ground after being crowned by her predecessor, the Ecuadorian Olga Alava and suffered an ankle injury.
Media and environmental activism
Fajksová regaled the kids with the story of “Amansinaya,” a story about a fishing community where nearly a thousand children from all over Metro Manila listened to stories about biodiversity and the riches of the planet during the two-day Inquirer Read-Along Festival at the Ninoy Aquino Parks and Wildlife Center on 26 November 2012.
