Julia Gama was appointed Miss Universe Brazil 2020 and will now represent the country at Miss Universe 2020 stage. Julia’s name was revealed directly from New York by Miss Universe 2019 Zozibini Tunzi via a live channel ‘U Miss Brasil’. She succeeds Miss Universe Brazil 2019 Júlia Horta.

Born in Porto Alegre, Julia is 27-years-old and stands 177 cm tall who has studied up to the third year of her Chemical Engineering degree at the Federal University of Rio Grande do Sul but she decided to give her artistic skills a little more attention. She is not new to the pageantry as she won the title of Miss Brasil Mundo 2014 and represented the country at Miss World 2014 and was placed at the Top 11 at the end of the event finale.

Julia was hopeful that her victory would serve as an encouragement to many other Brazilians and she wanted to use the platform to encourage people to believe in themselves, in the power of work and dedication. She is an ambassador for ‘Smile Train’ in Brazil, an organization providing corrective surgery for children with cleft lips and palates. She has also been an ambassador for the fight against Hanse’s Disease for the last six years. She wants to raise awareness about it, break the stigma and prejudice the society has.
