A 60-year-old Argentinian lawyer is hoping to make history by becoming the oldest Miss Universe contestant.
Alejandra Rodriguez proved that age really is just a number after being crowned Miss Buenos Aires earlier this month.
The win marks a huge milestone as it propels her into the nationwide competition where she will represent her province in May.
The originally rules for the Miss Universe pageant meant that only women who were childless, unmarried and aged between 18 to 28 years old could enter - but that all changed as of September last year.

Texan R'Bonney Gabriel was the oldest contestant to win the international title back in 2022 at the age of 28.
But when the rules changed in 2023 to allow women up to 73 years old to take part, Alejandra seized her chance.
The fearless legal advisor, who works at a hospital, told Hola!: 'I am thrilled to be representing this new paradigm in beauty pageants, because we are inaugurating a new stage in which women are not only physical beauty, but another set of values.
'I am the first of this generation to start with this.'
She credits her lifestyle for helping her maintain her ever-youthful looks.
'The basic thing is to have a healthy life, eat well, do physical activity,' she told the outlet. 'Normal care, nothing too extraordinary and a little genetics.'
Speaking about her diet, Alejandra shared: 'What I try to do is intermittent fasting - I think that helps a lot.
'Then I try to eat organic foods, a lot of fruit, a lot of vegetables, and use good creams.'
