After a long year in which, since the last edition – number 70 – in December 2021 had actually passed a little more than the time allotted for this type of event, the event returns on February 14th with quite a strong competition.
There are only a few hours left until the most important beauty pageant in the world, where the most beautiful women will vie to succeed the title bestowed by Miss Universe India Winners 2021.

The Colombian candidate has been preparing for a long time to win the title, and a seer decided to announce what will happen tomorrow, January 14, in the final of the beauty pageant.
It was in the Lo Sé Todo program that Juliana Suaza predicted the future of María Fernanda Aristizábal in Miss Universe 2023. The prediction wasn’t what many Colombians were expecting as it hinted at it “She will be chosen from a good group of queens, but she won’t be Miss Universe.”
However, it did not go unnoticed that the 25-year-old from Quindiana can achieve his goal after taking part in this important event.
María Fernanda’s journey to becoming Queen began in 2019 when she won the title of Miss Colombia through the National Beauty Pageant, where she represented her department, Quindío, thereby giving her her first crown as no representative from there had ever won the competition.
That triumph earned Aristizábal the Miss Universe 2020 ticket, but there were two specific issues that kept her from dreaming of becoming the most beautiful woman in the world. The first was the Covid-19 pandemic, which restricted all public events for most of the year, forcing this year’s competition to take place in 2021.when the restrictions were more flexible.

This finalized her contract with the CNB and thus she was free to be chosen by Miss Universe Colombia as a contestant selected by decree to represent Colombia in Miss Universe 2022. which will be held in New Orleans, USA, and whose Coronation Gala will be held next Saturday, January 14th.
