Two more nights before the Miss Universe 2014 coronation night and it could not be helped, but think if another Latina beauty will grab the title.
After being rescheduled, the Miss Universe 2014 competition is taking place on Sunday in Doral, Florida. Miss Venezuela Gabriela Isler, Miss Universe 2013, will be there to hand down the crown to another exceptional beauty.
This year, there is a bigger chance for the Latinas to win the crown naming 22 of them out of the 88 contestants, adding Nina Sanchez who is bringing the name of the United States.
Nina Sanchez, a Nevada beauty, was crowned Miss USA in 2014. Back then, Sanchez revealed that her half-Mexican heritage was made an issue.
"I do not think that I have ever told anybody this, but someone actually told me that It would be better if I change my family name. The 'Sanchez' name should, at least, be hidden away and just use a stage name because I will have a better chance of winning the crown," Sanchez told the Hufftington Post. "You know, I am proud of myself and the family I belong to. I did not, and will never, follow the advice," she added.
Together with Sanchez, 24, plenty of other Latina beauties will be there. They are Miss Argentina Valentina Ferrer, 23, Miss Bolivia Claudia Tavel, 25, Miss Brazil Melissa Gurgel, 25, Miss Chile Hellen Marlene Toncio, 20, Miss Colombia Paulina Vega, 21, Miss Costa Rica Karina Ramos, 21, Miss Ecuador Alejandra Argudo, 22, Miss El Salvador, Patricia Murillo, 21, Miss Spain Desiré Ferrer Cordero, 21, Miss Guatemala Ana Montúfar Urrutia, 21, Miss Honduras Gabriela Ordoñez, 22, Miss Mexico Josselyn Garciglia, 24, Miss Nicaragua Marline Barberena, 27, Miss Panama Yomatzy Hazlewood, 23, Miss Paraguay Sally Jar, 20, Miss Peru Jimena Rumini Espinosa Vecco, 26, Miss Puerto Rico Gabriela Berríos, 24, Miss Dominican Republic Kimberly Castillo, 26, Miss Uruguay Johana Riva, 24, and Miss Venezuela Migbelis Lynette Castellanos, 19.
