Nuestra Belleza Latina (abbreviated as NBL since 2018) is a Spanish-speaking reality competition & beauty pageant series where 12 females are being selected from among thousands after casting in six major U.S. cities and Puerto Rico to become "Nuestra Belleza Latina" for a year.
Premise[]
Auditions are held in cities throughout the US and Puerto Rico for Hispanic and Latino American women. Judges then select anywhere from 12 to 14 finalists to move into the mansion in Miami, Florida where the contestants reside for the duration of the competition. The finalists receive training in dance, catwalk, speaking, teleprompter reading and physical fitness and compete in weekly challenges against each other. Following each episode, the viewing public is allowed to vote for their favorite contestant. The three contestants with the fewest votes are thus put in danger; one is saved by the other contestants, one is saved by the judges and the third is eliminated from the competition. After a certain number of contestants remain, the audience chooses the winner of the competition. The winner receives various prizes, such as a contract with Univision, a cash prize and the title of Nuestra Belleza Latina.
Trivia[]
The title of the show translates to "Our Latin Beauty".
Current Price model Manuela Arbeláez was a contestant on this show in 2008.
