Get Pageant Questions Written By A Miss Universe Judge








(15 Nov 2018) As thousands of people leave Venezuela each day to escape food shortages and an inflation rate that is expected to reach 1 million percent, dozens of beauty queens are also taking flight and finding work as models and media personalities overseas.
Some are also representing their adopted homelands in international beauty pageants that include Miss Earth, Miss World and the Miss Universe pageant that will take place in Thailand in December.
At Giselle’s Beauty School in Caracas, young women learn to sway their hips and glide gracefully down a corridor, that is lined with photographs of the country’s famous pageant winners.
Many of the women there want to become models and beauty queens. But increasingly they are finding that they must leave the country in order to pursue their dreams.
Giselle Reyes is the school’s director. She estimates that over the past decade, 70 percent of her graduates have left the country.
One beauty queen that recently left Venezuela is 22-year-old Jessica Russo who moved to Peru a year ago with her family. Recently she represented her new homeland at the Miss World Pageant in the Philippines, where she was joined by Carolina Jane, a Venezuelan model who represented Spain.
Venezuela has long been a world leader in beauty pageants.
The South American country has seven Miss Universe crowns and Six Miss World titles, and many people here follow pageants closely, as if they were a popular sport.
But the country’s economic crisis is stripping its beauty queens of job opportunities at home, as fashion shows and ad campaigns grind to a halt.
Many of the Venezuelan beauty queens who have gone abroad credit their rigid preparation in Venezuela with their success abroad.
But some say that they are also relieved to be free of the cookie-cutter beauty standards imposed by pageant organisers in Venezuela.
Andrea Diaz moved to Chile three years ago, from Venezuela.
Now, she will be representing her new home at the upcoming Miss Universe Pageant.

  1. EUROPEANS ARE MUSLIMS IN FACT

    Jesus is only a prophet of Almighty Allah. He was a Muslim and preached Islam.
    Jesus is not begotten son or God/Lord. Jesus never claimed the dignity/that he is God?

    Shouting and negative propaganda does not matter. Europeans must know that it is not in their broader interests at all.
    A man can't be a God/Lord. The attributes of Almighty Allah are mentioned in detail in Holy Qur'an.

    Almighty Allah is the Originator of the universe and Creator of Mankind
    Jesus never claimed that he originated the universe and created the Mankind. But Almighty Allah did
    in Holy Qur'an
    Believe that proohet Mohammad
    (pbuh)is the last messenger as Jesus is a messenger before him.

    Proohet Mohammad(pbuh) clerly admitted that he is a comman man like others but Almighty Allah revealed His book Qur'an to him.

    Prophet Mohammad(pbuh) taught
    to worship Almighty Allah only. Never worship any one but Allah only. When Jesus will come the Chrustians will revert to Islam.

    Don't mislead the slaves– the Mankind– of Allah. It is very big sin
    and it will lead to the fire of Jahannam which is very bad destination.
    Almighty Allah bless all of us.

  2. It is so bad what is happening in Latin America, mostly when they have some of the most beautiful woman. I met a Salvadorian woman one time I went to Germany, she was so beautiful and she spoke German just like any German Native, she was merry to a German, but what a beautiful woman. Since then, I have been interested in Latin America beauty.

  3. They are beautiful women. Beauty is not easy. Not a good-looking woman gets a guy with lost hair and she is happy. What about this beautiful woman, what she can get? How they can find somebody comparable? That's why usually they are ending up. with depression.

  4. One thing is for sure. Venezuela has definitively solved their obesity issue.

    Well, exception made for one person at the top of their food chain:

    that dear president-for-life (benevolent dictator) Nicolas Maduro, of course.

  5. Have to admit, South American countries are having critical times….. Look how messed up Bolivia, venezuela, and Chile are right now…. Messed up..
