Beauty Contestant

The Resume

    (January 15, 1993- )
    Born in Barranquilla, Colombia
    Birth name is Paulina Vega Dieppa
    Miss Colombia (2013)
    Miss Universe (2014)
    Of no relation to Miss Universe 2003, Amelia Vega of the Dominican Republic
    One of only two Colombian women to be crowned Miss Universe, the other being Luz Marina Zuluaga, in 1958
    Crowned in Doral, USA (Jan. 25, 2015)

Why she might be annoying:

    She allowed Mika Brzezinski to try on her Miss Universe crown during her appearance on 'Morning Joe.'
    She was roommate to Miss Puerto Rico Gabriela Berrios, but didn't even try to find out what happened to her after she collapsed on stage during the competition.
    She was given a gift of several parkas by Donald Trump, all of them reading 'Trump Tower' on the back.
    She frequently warrants comparisons with Shakira and Sofia Vergara usually just because they're the only other Colombian women people are familiar with (otherwise the three have virtually nothing in common...)
    Her victory over Miss Jamaica Kaci Fennell, drew outrage and cries of racism from some corners, inspiring the Twitter hashtag, #MissJamaicaShouldHaveWon.
    She gave Farrell a backhanded compliment when addressing the controversy, stating that while Farrell's bobbed hairstyle was 'elegant' it wasn't something she was ready to try herself (fighting words in 'beauty pageant-speak').

Why she might not be annoying:

    She is assertive but also has a playful sense of humor.
    She is fluent in Spanish, English, German, and French.
    She beat out contestants from 87 other countries in the competition.
    She admitted to having a crush on Bradley Cooper after seeing him in 'The Hangover.'
    She majored in business administration at the Universidad Javeriana in Bogota.
    She is only the second Colombian to be crowned Miss Universe, creating the longest crowning gap for a country in the pageant's history (57 years).
    She said, 'I want to demonstrate that it is not the most important thing to be beautiful and have a glamorous life. It's about FEELING beautiful.'
