A 20-year-old beauty queen from
Rhode Island was crowned the new Miss Universe on Wednesday, beating out 88
other women during a televised competition at the Planet Hollywood casino on
the Las Vegas Strip.
Olivia Culpo took the crown from Leila Lopes of Angola after strutting in a purple and blue bikini and a red velvet gown.
In the final stages of the
competition, she answered a question about her regrets by saying she wished she
hadn't picked on her siblings.
Miss Philippines, Janine Tugonon,
came in second, while Miss Venezuela, Irene Sofia Esser Quintero, placed third.
The winner of the crown receives an
undisclosed salary, a wardrobe fit for a queen, a limitless supply of beauty
products, and a luxury apartment in New York City.
