Mexican beauty’s goal is to win the international competition
The preparation of Mexican beauty queen Karin Ontiveros, who was crowned Nuestra Belleza Mexico 2010 last September, has already started. Ontiveros said that her goal is to become her country’s third Miss Universe.
“We started the pageant training in January. I am attending hair and make-up lessons; I used to be someone who settled with only mascara and lipgloss, but now I have to put an effort into it”.
“It is not that difficult, I am an industrial designer, so I am familiar with a lot of these things. It just a matter of getting used to it” said Ontiveros, who will compete in the Miss Universe 2011 pageant to take place in Brazil next September.
Karin wishes to become Mexico’s third Miss Universe, something that she sees happening; even though she had doubts about participating in a beauty competition, the victory of Jimena Navarrete last year, raised her hopes.
“I joined the pageant after Jimena won, very deservingly. We both were models in Guadalajara and worked together in some fashion shows”.
“I really don’t like to annoy her asking for advice; but ever since the beginnig, she told me that the only thing I had to do, was to be myself”.
She said “Prepare yourself well. There is no magic formula, except just being who you are. If they like you, you will be up there; if not, then that’s another story. Just don’t try and pretend to be something you are not, because they notice that”.
Ontiveros, with a stunning height of 1.80 meters, will be part of a group of 85 beautiful women who will arrive in Sao Paulo in late August to take part in this year’s competition.
Meanwhile, Lupita Jones, President of the Nuestra Belleza Mexico organization, officially announced that the country will be represented in Miss International 2011 by Karen Higuera, Nuestra Belleza Baja California Sur, who was a Top 10 finalist in the NB Mexico pageant held last year.
Karen Higuera is 19 years old and stands 1.82 m tall. She will travel to Chengdu, China, to compete for the title of Miss International 2011 in November.

This Girl is Not amazing and does not have anything especial to offer. She only has a winning attitude who thinks she is the BEST and honestly Mexico thinks after so many years winning their 2 crown, think that they r going to actually win a back to back this year?? haha After The first time in History of the pageant Venezuela to win 2 consecutive years, to think it would happen so fast and especially to Country that is not a threat. Venezuela is been the only country to do so and will maintain for a while like that. If it was any country to do a back to back would be Australia and Puerto Rico.
I would like a candidate from Europe to win this year!!

She’s Ugly
2nd Runner Up!
god…you’re so beautiful.i wouldn’t mind you taking over jimena.good luck.
I wish I could see more natural pictures rather than this airbrushing I seem to be seeing all over for Miss Mexico Universe as it is really hard to see her beauty- the more natural the look and the less make-up used, the better!
…The First Runner Up is Spain… which means Mexico, you are the new Miss Universe 2011…!!!
Let’s go Mexico! The one thing I lobe about Karin is that she has the right attitude! She acts like a winner and she probably will do very well.
Very pretty. Mexico will place in the top 15.
Pretty as a runner up.. not Miss Universe quality, she looks totally air brushed !
YEAH RIGTH,SHE’S PRETTY BUT NOT TO BE MISS UNIVERSE.
