Beauty website Missosology currently lists Daniella Alvarez as second in their list of favorites giving her an overall score of 9.2 out of 10.
Missosology goes on to say “she’s beautiful, she’s got a heaven-sent body and an aura of a Latina goddess.” The website does, however, note that “Colombia is not really consistent in the pageant for some reason and neither is Daniella. She looks great in some photos but she fails at times in some of her candids.”
Miss Alvarez, known for her love of the color yellow, surprised judges by sporting the color, which some said was “tacky.” When asked why she chose it, she simply claimed it is the color of success.
Alvarez can only hope she is right.
The 88 other contestants and the rest of the world will have to wait until December 19 to find out if her bold choices paid off.
