The People are Beautiful
It’s no secret that people, especially the women, in Venezuela are very attractive. Beauty is a big deal in Venezuela, and beauty pageants are a huge part of the culture. According to a recent article in Elle, “with six crowns, Venezuela has taken more Miss World titles than any other nation; the country also boasts seven Miss Universes” (as of 2014). Some girls are taught to excel in beauty pageants at a young age, and for many women success in the beauty world can guarantee a good life for them and their families.
