Cuba returns to participate in Miss Universe after 57 years of absence, and the process to find out who will be the representative of the island in the international beauty pageant couldn't be more exciting.
There are 24 Cuban women aspiring to be crowned as the queen of beauty and travel to Mexico in November for the contest, and one of them is actress Alina Robert, who is excited and proud to be one of the candidates for Miss Universo Cuba 2024.
Alina Robert, 37 years old, represents Havana, where she lived for 21 years before moving to the United States, where she has been living for 16 years. The actress and presenter expressed how proud she feels to wear the sash with the name of the capital of Cuba.
She herself expressed it in a post, in which she celebrated her candidacy in the beauty contest. "I am truly excited to remember the city where I was born, where I spent 21 years of my life and which represents my identity. I am from Havana and I have the honor of representing Havana, how proud I am to see myself with this sash!!!"
"I arrived in Miami crossing the border. I have lived in Miami for almost half of my life, but all my childhood, adolescence, and the formation of my character took place in Cuba. My modified positive version of freedom, democracy, values, opportunities, and rights I discovered here in Miami. That's why I am from Havana and Miami is my home," said the actress in a story, who rose to popularity after participating in Nuestra Belleza Latina on Univisión in 2014, where she finished as the fourth finalist.
