- Story Text: Venezuelan beauty Irene Esser told a new conference in Caracas on Sunday (October 16) that the weight of the crown was not easy to bear.
The 20-year-old Esser was born in Puerto Ordaz and raised in Rio Caribe. She was crowned as Miss Venezuela 2011 on Saturday.
"I want to put the Irene Esser seal on Miss Venezuela 2011," she said during a new conference.
Also present was Gabriela Ferrari, runner up in the pageant and who will go on to compete in Miss Venezuela World.
"We are here and we are going to give our best this year, both at Miss Universe and Miss World. Venezuela will be represented very well," Ferrari said.
Esser said that she and Ferrari had their work cut out for them for the next year as the two will go on to compete in international competitions.
"We have to prepare ourselves for one of the most important events in the world like the Miss Universe pageant and Miss World. We have only been crowned hours ago so that way we can define what our weak points are. We have to improve in every aspect so we can go to the international contests well prepared," Esser said.
She added: "Carrying the weight of this crown is not easy but it is divine, it's magical, it is a beautiful experience."
