Miss Mexico Andrea Meza was crowned Miss Universe 2021 on Sunday a year after the 2020 pageant was cancelled due to the coronavirus pandemic.

The 26-year-old model-software engineer - who was crowned by 2019 titleholder Zozibini Tunzi - reacted to her triumph on Instagram: 'MISS UNIVERSE IS MÉXICO!', and later: 'MÉXICO ESTO ES PARA TI,' which translates as 'Mexico is for you'.

For the grand finale, Andrea dazzled in a flaming red-fringed gown designed by Ivis Lenin to accept the honor onstage Florida's Seminole Hard Rock Hotel & Casino Hollywood.

Meza - who has 40 cousins and wowed judges in a hot pink mini dress, a yellow bikini and Aztec dragon national costume - is reportedly the third Mexican woman to ever win the crown, following Lupita Jones and Ximena Navarrete. (Daily Mail)

No one participated from Sri Lanka. May be due to infighting.

Did the former Miss. Universe whisper profanities in the new of the newly crowned? That picture looks familiar to a Sri Lankan's eyes.

I heard that Ms Sri Lanka was not allowed anywhere near the winner, for fear of her removing the crown of the winner and putting it on the head of the runner up. Security was tight that is what I heard.
