The newly crowned Miss Universe 2016 Iris Mittenaere has made France proud by winning the coveted crown of Miss Universe for France, after a hiatus of 64 years. It’s been less than a week since the beauty has been crowned, and people are going crazy searching more about her. The dental student of France is already making an impact. The newly crowned beauty queen is rumoured to be a lesbian.

If rumours are to be believed, Iris could be the first openly gay titleholder. Her sexuality should not bring any change as such to her title, if at all, it will only be an advancement to have an LGBT icon advancing equality. This could probably be the first step to bring in a huge change to the society.
