This is how Colombia did at Miss World 2021

One of the events that was canceled due to the covid-19 pandemic was the coronation of the Miss World 2021 beauty contest, which was to be held in December of that year, but had to be postponed to March 2022. Finally, it took place this week in San Juan, Puerto Rico, and Poland's representative Karolina Bielawska took the crown.

On the other hand, Miss World United States, Shree Saini, and Ivory Coast, Olivia Yace, came in second and third place, respectively. One of the aspects that should be highlighted in the 70th edition of the contest is that it is the first time that it has moved to a Spanish-speaking place throughout its history as a beauty contest. For this reason, criticism was generated at the event because a better positioning of Latina representatives was expected.

“When I heard my name it surprised me, I still can't believe it. I am honored,” said the winner, according to the EFE agency, after being crowned the most beautiful woman in the world. She received the crown of Toni-Ann Singh, the Jamaican who wore the Miss World crown from 2019 until now, all because of covid-19.

Miss World Colombia is called Andrea Aguilera, she performed at the national pageant by the department of Antioquia and represented the country in Miss World, a pageant that took place in Puerto Rico.

The contest was attended by 98 contestants who fought for a place in the top 40 who will be competing for the crown and who were previously chosen to win the title of women's beauty that takes place every year. Among those 40 contestants, Colombia was among the 12 semifinalists, along with Vietnam, Mexico, Northern Ireland, the Philippines. Poland, Somalia, United States, Czech Republic, France, India, Indonesia and Ivory Coast.

However, it did not make it among the finalists. In her official profile, the beauty queen thanked the Colombians who were there for the support of the Colombians who were there and those who were watching in the distance, “thank you for all those messages, congratulations and love, for having been part of this whole process. I'm happy because we got that 12th place, thank you, I love you. I'm still here, enjoying the beach in Puerto Rico,” he added that he will be back in the country very soon.

The Antioquia and current Miss World Colombia, Andrea Aguilera Arroyave, is a social communicator with a diploma in neurolinguistic programming and a technique in early childhood care. In addition, she has gained experience as a television presenter and has made a career in the modeling field.

She is passionate about traveling and getting to know new cultures, among her favorite plans are sharing with her loved ones and as part of her social function she likes to help the disadvantaged. He has a great gift for people and a very special sensitivity for music, art and children's happiness.

As the representative for Colombia, Andrea Aguilera, has repeatedly indicated, being in the pageant is one of her dreams come true, something she always longed for.

“I would use this crown to make a social impact not only in my country but in the world and show that Colombians are resilient, hardworking, capable people,” Andrea Aguilera said through her social networks, just before her departure for Puerto Rico.
