The Renowned Television Personality Will Share Her Pageant Experience to Support the Contestants Vying for the Prestigious Miss Universe\u00ae Latina Crown<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Miami, FL \u2013 June 19, 2025<\/strong> \u2013 Telemundo<\/a> announced that Miss Universe\u00ae 2020 and acclaimed TV personality Andrea Meza<\/strong><\/a> will join Miss Universe\u00ae Latina, El Reality<\/em><\/strong> as the new captain for Team Ruby, with exciting live galas airing weeknights and Sundays at 7pm\/6c. Meza, who made history as the third Mexican woman to win the Miss Universe\u00ae crown, brings her international pageant experience, empowering voice, and unique charisma to the most ambitious reality competition on Spanish-language television.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Alongside Alicia Machado<\/a>,  Team Emerald captain, Meza will serve as a mentor and leader for Team Ruby, guiding the contestants as they compete for the first-ever Miss Universe\u00ae Latina crown and the chance to represent U.S. Latinos during the 74th<\/sup> edition of Miss Universe\u00ae later this year.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Born and raised in Chihuahua, Mexico, Meza is currently a host on Telemundo\u2019s morning show Hoy D\u00eda<\/em>. She began her career with the network following her reign, appearing on En Casa con Telemundo<\/em>, and has participated in numerous network specials, including the Billboard Latin Music Awards<\/em> and the Macy\u2019s Thanksgiving Day Parade<\/em>. Throughout her career, she has been celebrated for her talent, intelligence, and activism, especially her advocacy for women\u2019s rights and gender equality. During her reign as Miss Universe\u00ae, Meza also collaborated with Smile Train\u2019s Cleft Leadership Centers (CLCs), which provide comprehensive care for individuals with cleft lip and palate. These services include medical treatment, education, research, surgeries, speech therapy, nutritional support, orthodontics, and more.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The contestants who are still in the competition on Andrea Meza\u2019s Team Ruby are: Andrea Aguilar, Andrea Bazarte, Ashley Flete, Azalia Arredondo, Gemmy Quelliz, G\u00e9nesis D\u00e1vila, Joseline Rodr\u00edguez, Laura P\u00e9rez, Marcela Delgado, Nathalia Tasama, and Skarxi Marte.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Miss Universe\u00ae Latina, El Reality <\/em>is a multiplatform format that features a group of contestants selected through a rigorous audition process, following the standards of the Miss Universe\u00ae Organization. Hosted by Jacqueline Bracamontes<\/a>, the show follows talented Latinas competing for the title of Miss Universe\u00ae Latina and the opportunity to represent the U.S. Latino community at Miss Universe\u00ae to be held in Thailand later this year. While Alicia Machado and Andrea Meza contribute their expertise to the growth of the contestants on their respective teams, Emerald and Ruby, the judges Aracely Ar\u00e1mbula, David Salom\u00f3n, and Fabi\u00e1n R\u00edos, combined with the audience vote, will decide who advances in the competition. Each episode showcases moments of bonding, training, and challenges, both at the Mansion and the Miss Universe\u00ae Latina School, as well as behind-the-scenes action hosted by Sebasti\u00e1n Villalobos. In the end, only one will be crowned Miss Universe\u00ae Latina, earning the right to compete in Miss Universe\u00ae.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
