The Miss Universe competition concluded Sunday night in Miami where Miss Colombia, Paulina Vega was crowned Miss Universe.
Vega beat 88 other countries in the competition. Miss USA's Nia Sanchez of Las Vegas and Miss Ukraine, Diana Harkusha were the runner-ups.
A little background on the newly crowned Miss Universe -- Paulina Vega, 22, is from Barranquilla, Colombia and is currently studying business administration. She says she's eager to return to her studies in school. Earlier this week Vega told reporters, "It will be a dream come true to represent the women of today. A woman that not only cares about being beautiful and being glamorous, but also cares about being a professional, intelligent, hard-working person."
