May 25th Alejandra Marisa Rodríguez will represent the province of the Argentine capital at the competition Miss Universe. Everything was normal if it weren’t for one detail: the splendid winner is 60 years old. It seems incredible looking at her in the photos, but even more incredible in person, given that the judges voted for her without any hesitation, making her win over the other numerous participants who were much younger than her.
His secret
The news, as you can well imagine, went around the world as a sort of revenge for women who are over 40 and who, apparently, now have the same possibilities as younger girls also when it comes to competitions. of beauty. But the most popular question is the secret of such a perfect shape at an age when the body and face are no longer as toned as they were at 20 years old.
It would all be “genetics”, explained Rodriguez, who is a lawyer and journalist for the Argentine broadcaster El Trece, is to “live a healthy life, eat well and do physical activity”. Healthy habits that are now well known but, evidently, do not work in the same way for everyone.
Why participate in the competition
The other question received from journalists from all over the world, but also from the simply curious on social media, is this: what pushed you to participate in the competition. His response, very much in line with the politically correctit was this: “We are ushering in a new phase in which women are not just concerned with physical beauty, but with another set of values“. The pageant in Argentina, which has been under a new organization since 2022, has removed age barriers, allowing contestants to highlight their beauty and talent at every “season of life”.
A huge change compared to the past, taking into account that the previous limit was 28 years.
