The Miss Universe organization has announced that beginning next year, there will be no age limit on potential contestants.
R’Bonney Gabriel, the winner of the 2022 pageant, made the announcement during a show at New York Fashion Week fittingly titled “Beauty Pageant,” according to Women’s Wear Daily.
Gabriel, who was the first Filipino-American woman to win Miss USA and America’s first Miss Universe winner in a decade, is now 29 years old and had advocated for the rule change during last year’s competition. “My favorite quote is ‘If not now, then when?’ Because I believe age should not define us,” Gabriel said at the time. “It’s not tomorrow, it’s not yesterday, but it’s now — the time is now that you can go after what you want.”
