Miss Colombia (Concurso Nacional de Belleza de Colombia, "National Beauty Contest of Colombia" in Spanish) is the national beauty pageant organization in Colombia.

The national director for Colombia is Raimundo Angulo Pizarro.

Pageant rules

Colombia has highly strict rules regarding participation of any Miss Universe preliminary: once a contestant registers for the pageant, she is confined to her own Department and cannot move or relocate to other states/provinces.

However, she can participate more than once for the same department. As example, the winner of 2003 had already come in fourth place at the Miss Valle pageant the year before she won and eventually went on to win the national title and crown.

Laura González, Señorita Colombia 2017, 1st runner-up at Miss Universe 2017.

Controversies

David Letterman on Miss Colombia

In May 2001, David Letterman joked about the 'special talent' which the then-reigning Miss Colombia Andrea Noceti possessed – that she was able to "swallow 50 balloons full of heroin" for the (non-existent) talent competition in the Miss Universe 2001 pageant. The remark not only infuriated the beauty queen, but also the people in Colombia.^[6]

Miss Colombia openly threatened to sue Letterman but later withdrawn the statement after Letterman formally apologised to her in the Late Show with David Letterman about the quip made. Letterman had invited the beauty queen to appear on his show as a gesture of appeasement.^[7]
