Early years

Miss Earth 2014
"Respect the Earth, our home that's welcoming us for so many years – this should be the watchword of all its inhabitants."
—Laëtizia Penmellen's message for Miss Earth.
By obtaining Miss Earth France, Laëtizia flew to the Philippines in November to compete with almost 100 other candidates to be Alyz Henrich's[1][2] successor as Miss Earth.
As a Miss Earth delegate, an environmental advocacy is must. When she was asked about her advocacy for the pageant, she mentioned climate change as her choice of topic. She continued answering by saying, "But I will talk about several topics such as those below because everything is interconnected."
About what she can promote about her country, Laëtizia replied, "I know that French people are not known to be the most warmhearted people in this world but France is worth a visit for its landscapes as varied as its people, cooking terroirs in respect of the environment, and culture in every region of France."
She was one of the favourite but she left the competition 3 days before the show because of a virus. The Miss Earth 2014 was won by Jamie Herrell of the Philippines.[3][4][5]
