Brazil won Colomba’s second most important beauty pageant this weekend, when Mariana Notarangelo was elected Queen of Coffee – an honor inferior only to “Miss Colombia.”
The Brazilian contestant beat Polish Iwona Wyrzykowska, Bolivian Flavia Foianini and Dominican Audris Rijo Gómez to be elected the most beautiful of the international models who competed in the pageant.
Notarangelo studies medicine, and says that her hobbies are reading, dancing, going to the cinema and playing with her pets.
The international beauty pageant was held in Manizales for the 54th time, in one of the highlights of the city’s annual feria.
