It’s no surprise to VL readers that Puerto Rican Miss Universe, Zuleyka Rivera, has issues with weight and her body. Right after her win Jennifer questioned if her fainting spell was just nerves or the result of dangerous dieting. Well question no more. The belleza herself admits that she was extreme dieting.
Los entrenamientos y la dieta que llevaba Zuleyka Rivera antes de convertirse en Miss Universo fueron tan extremos que no podÃa evitar desmayarse continuamente.
What is even more disturbing is the response Zuleyka received when she started to gain weight after her win.

La flaca mas bella del Universo aka Puerto Rican Zuleyka Rivera is using the power of her crown to represent the Latino community for a very worthy cause. Today she was appointed the International Ambassador for the Latino Commission on AIDS. In that role she will support local, regional, national and international initiatives in the areas of HIV/AIDS prevention, health education, capacity building and advocacy. The 18 year old Salinas native said:
I want to encourage HIV/AIDS awareness and education for my peers, but more importantly, I want to be an example for everyone who is afraid of being tested. Together we can all work toward the mutual goal of protecting our loved ones and our communities.
