Alejandra Marisa Rodriguez, a 60-year-old Argentine, defied expectations and made history when she won the prestigious Miss Universe title for the Buenos Aires province.
Her triumph, which was revealed on Wednesday, not only honours her incredible journey but also highlights how committed the Miss Universe beauty contest is to promoting inclusivity and diversity.
Rodriguez, who is from La Plata, the provincial capital of Buenos Aires, Argentina, is not only a beauty queen but also an accomplished journalist and lawyer who exemplifies the complexity of modern beauty.
Her success is evidence of her tenacity as she broke through barriers and redefined expectations of age and beauty.
She becomes the first female in her age group to win an outstanding beauty award in this kind. Her grace, elegance, and contagious grin won over judges and viewers alike, touching people all over the world.
"I am thrilled to be representing this new paradigm in beauty pageants because we are inaugurating a new stage in which women are not only physical beauty but another set of values," she told the media after her win.
Notably, last year, the Miss Universe organisation announced that it would no longer require a specific young age for pageant contestants.
