Migbelis Castellanos, Miss Venezuela 2013, was crowned today as the new queen of the Univisión reality show "Nuestra Belleza Latina."
Migbelis, with 45% of the votes, became the eleventh queen of the competition and the first Venezuelan to win the title, surpassing her competitors: the Dominican, Ceylín Rosario (second runner-up), and the Honduran, Yaritza Owen (first runner-up).
"I am very happy, oh thank you my God! Thank you to all the audience because all of you, and those at home, are part of this beautiful moment. Thank you so much, to my parents who are here," expressed the new queen in tears.
Through her Instagram account, Migbelis showcased her victory and also expressed gratitude to those who supported her throughout the process.
"I still can’t believe it. Thank you to everyone who believed in me and supported me with all the love in the world. Without you, none of this would have been possible. Thank you, I am eternally grateful for this opportunity."
"After weeks of glamour and tough competition, we finally have the new queen of Nuestra Belleza Latina 2018. She is the first Venezuelan to win the title, Migbelis Castellanos, who received the crown from Clarissa Molina, the NBL 2016 queen - the one who has held the title the longest - and host of El Gordo y La Flaca," reported the television network Univisión.
This latest installment of the program began at the end of September and brought together nearly thirty contestants from different regions of Latin America. This year’s panel of judges included Osmel Sousa, Giselle Blondet, Denise Bidot, El Dasa, and Jomari Goyso. Additionally, the show featured performances by Pitbull, Cristian Castro, Christian Nodal, Casper, and Jackie Cruz.
"At the end of the reality show, emotions were running high; it was Alejandra Espinoza who announced that Migbelis had won the competition thanks to the popular vote," added Univisión.
From the beginning of the reality show, the 23-year-old Venezuelan stood out as one of the favorites, following her participation in the 2014 Miss Universe pageant. This involvement sparked significant controversy due to her "alleged" weight gain.
Migbelis Castellanos, upon becoming Nuestra Belleza Latina 2018, receives a cash prize of $100,000 and a one-year contract with Univisión, making her the new face of the show Despierta América.
