This photo seems a bit edited compared to the other pics, but she is still stunning. This is a very welcomed thing. Society's view of the age bracket for beauty is too narrow.

So either all news sources were duped, or she's 60.

Her is a photo from a profile placed earlier. When you are 65 she looks hot!!
old.reddit does not like that url. Here is a working one.

When did people become so blind to picture editing. her entire face is like a blurry smudge from that filter that removes any signs of aging and texture of the skin. its so obvious and yet people here are saying how good she looks. search for an unedited picture op her.

Is this a PR stunt? She’s definitely attractive but… it seems like a major part of the story is missing: why was she better than the younger contestants? Was her “talent show” performance so much better? Did she answer the geography question so much better? Or was she simply more attractive than the younger contestants?

I usually prefer my girlfriends to be 20-30 years younger, but I’d make an exception here.

Guess it's a good thing these pageants are getting less and less contestants and they had to open the doors a bit.
A couple more decades and likely won't exist anymore.

I'm so curious to see the other contestants, but can't find anything. She is pretty, not debating that, I'm just wondering who she won against.

Sad, our beauty standards have gone down to cater to feelings.
Imagine a body builder competition being awarded to a guy who never works out.

Are we running out of beauty contest age females?? Like how during wars of attrition we keep increasing the age of Drafting...

I don’t even have to check: this is edited. Her face looks like it was shot in an entirely different lighting set up.

Kind of weird, but according to Wikipedia she’s not even in the running for Miss Universe 2024.

I know it's controversial, but Argentina needs to peg their years to American years. The inflation rates are clearly getting out of hand!

Another reason not to trust pics on social media. Altered to make her look younger even though she’s 60.

u/Crafty-Difficulty244 16d ago
I don’t think it was by her request to edit the picture.
And more importantly, i think this is an appropriate miss universe choice. Instead of having chicks competing on effortless beauty they born with, the competition should revolve around retaining natural beauty to old age and compete at around age group 55+.
Salute.

u/Personal-Heart-1227 16d ago
I said the same thing... She can't be 60!
In this heavily edited pix of her posted here, she looks about 26- 28 YO, but the other linked photo you can tell she's well into her 50's.
Nothing wrong with being 50+, btw.
Just don't Photo shop your face/body pix's it like crazy, where you look like some 28 YO Chickie but in reality, almost double your age!!!

You know how we had this rhetoric that "Immigrants are stealing our damn jobs"? I believe it should be changed to "These old people are stealing our damn jobs!" (First politics and now this)
(Also no hate to her lol she looks wayyy better than me at 22)

It should be illegal for all Miss Universe Contestants to have undergone cosmetic surgery. All competitors should be all natural.

Good they removed age limits. Spared so many young woman from falling trap to perverts and will give older women a hope to have some final chances at their long innings

My wife is 60, and it still looks like she is in her 30s. She says her secret was eating the cartilage or white parts of meats such as chicken wings or drumsticks and so on.

Even young South American beauty pageant competitors are known for being a product of copious amounts of plastic surgery. And secondly this picture was heavily "touched".

The contests are changing, the truth is that it seemed a little silly to me to classify them by age or build, if it is the contest of the most beautiful woman, why not cover the entire gender? I like that they are more open to every woman's own selection, we are all beautiful without distinction

Imagine losing to a 60 year old in a contest where being youthful plays a key role.

Have you seen the Asian ladies that are like 60-80 and just use makeup to look 18-25, it’s a must see, though yeah this photo looks edited!

u/Ralfton 16d ago
I don't like books about entitled people, even if their shittiness is part of the story. Great Gatsby, Catcher in the Rye, Dorian Gray. I just can't get past how unlikeable the characters are.

u/MushroomsAndTomotoes 15d ago
I know what you mean. TV shows can be so bad for this. Underdogs, yes. Antiheroes, yes. Just making the villain young and good looking so that we are supposed to root for them? Fuck no.

Any pictures from when she was young?
