Marianela Ancheta was chosen a few minutes ago as Miss Universe Cuba 2024, and she will be the one to represent this beautiful island in the next edition of Miss Universe 2024, which will be held in November in Mexico.
The election and crowning of Marianela is not just any event; the beautiful young woman becomes the first Cuban to be elected for the Miss Universe competition, after 57 years of not having held this event, due to the sociopolitical situation in Cuba.
25 candidates participated in an event that will be part of history for its important meaning for the Cuban community abroad and Cubans on the island. They paraded on a magnificent stage and looked well-prepared to shine, confident, and eloquent for the camera. The pageant was held in Miami, USA.
Who is Miss Universe Cuba 2024?
Marianela Ancheta, representing the Central Region, grew up in a loving home, but with economic deficiencies. When she was only 13 years old, she left Cuba with her mother in search of the American dream. When she arrived in the United States, she helped her mother clean warehouses and offices. When she grew up, she dedicated herself to being a model and managed to get ahead. She describes herself as a brave, compassionate, and genuine girl.
“I want to use the platform to promote important social causes, such as unity, resilience, and empowerment, both in Cuba and globally. I aspire to be an example of strength, courage, and determination, motivating other women to fight for their dreams despite adversity,” said the beautiful young woman while participating in this contest.
I congratulate the Cubans for this important event, for its queen, and for the great effort they have made to put on a quality show. Marianela... congratulations! You did great.
