7/17/04- Miami - Ms Latina Contestants Heat up State lounge.
By Paula Davis
State lounge in South Beach, Miami hosted the Ms Latina Pageant contestants as they prepare for their August 1, Pageant competition. Even the South Beach regulars, who are used to seeing beautiful models, were impressed with this group of Latin Beauties.
Some of the girls arrived with parents at hand because they were under 18.
Outside the lounge, management had the girls sign waivers before they could
enter. In the meantime, a crowd gathered to view some of the best the Latin
Community has to offer.
As the pageant approaches, several contestants
reach the end of their reign.
Carla Guzman
Ms Teen Latina
International |
Carla Guzman is the reigning Ms Teen Latina International. She told us " It's
hard giving up the crown. But I will be working with Angela Posillico, the
Pageant Owner, and the Ms Latina International organization in marketing so I
really won't be missing them too much." The time she spent as reigning Teen
Latina was wonderful she said. "I got to do so many things I would have never
been able to do without them."
Most of the contestants are anxious to
attend the pageant. To get ready for the pageant competition, many have worked
hard training, exercising and practicing their communication skills. They didn't
seem to have any problem working the crowd as they enjoyed the dance floor and
the music.
Tito Puentes Jr. was the special guest star for the
evening. His recently released album, "In my Father Shoe's", is being well
received by the press. Tito Puentes Jr. has been following his father footsteps
in his own self styled manner and making a strong impact on the recording
industry. He had his birthday party last month where he said the album is a
celebration of his father's music.
Jennifer Rosario
Ms Latina
International |
Another reigning contestant is Jennifer Rosario. We asked her what she plans
to do after her reign as Ms Latina International. " I'm currently a business
major and am active in modeling and television." - "I plan on pursuing my acting
career and am now working on a theatre project in pursuit of that
goal."
Some of the opportunities she was able to obtain because of
her Ms Latina title include:
A Photo shoot campaign for AT&T, Television
and print commercials, special appearances and more.
The Ms Latina International Pageant is a leading talent and model search
organization that helps in the development of individuals as a future
contributor to the Latin and American community with scholarship, grants and
prizes.
One thing we know for sure, the judges are going to have a
hard time picking just one of these beautiful ladies to become the next Ms
Latina International. Good luck to all the contestants. - ArtsyStuff
