The new Miss Universe comes from Denmark and is called Victoria Kjær Theilvig. At the 73rd edition of the beauty contest in Mexico City, the 21-year-old was chosen from a total of 127 candidates. 

The tiara was placed on her head by her predecessor Sheynnis Palacios from Nicaragua. 

Oldest "Miss" was 40
For the first time, there was no maximum age limit for participation after this was lifted by the organizers. Previously, only women between the ages of 18 and 28 were allowed to compete for the beauty crown.

More inclusion at beauty pageant
The competition, which has been held since 1952, has taken steps towards more inclusion in recent years.
