Miss Earth Puerto Rico organization is all set to host the 2022 edition of the national pageant on 30th January 2022, as delegates from all over the country will compete for the national crown and to win an opportunity to represent Puerto Rico at Miss Earth 2022.

While this year’s batch consists of stunning delegates from all over the country, some have stood out as strong and potential contenders for the title among the class. Guaynabo’s Karina Marie is one of the most hyped delegates for this year’s edition as the diva is on her path to mark a milestone in the history of Miss Earth Puerto Rico pageant.

“My curves do not define me, nor limit me, they make me unique,” says the plus size model who has been in the limelight ever since the screening. Her appearance shows the variety of beauties that are increasingly being accepted.

Karina is the first-ever plus size beauty queen participating in the national pageant. The diva recently spoke up about the ‘Power of Belonging’ as she wrote, “Powerful, valuable, unstoppable and free. To every limitation that life puts on you, respond with that quality that makes you unique. Recognize your power, recognize your value and show the world that you are much more than a stereotype. Your capacity, essence and beauty are not measured by your physical qualities. Only you choose how you should and want to be. Always remember that YOU DESERVE TO BELONG and that YOU BELONG.”

Talking about the Miss Earth Puerto Rico platform she said, “With each passing day, I see my purpose fulfilled within this platform; make visible what once was not and demonstrate to the whole earth the POWER TO BELONG.”  Advocating body positivity throughout her journey, this diva is definitely a modern queen inspiring young minds all over the country as well as globally. She is breaking barriers, marking history and definitely emerging as a strong contender to represent the country and her advocacy on the international platform.
