Colombian Beauty Queen Stripped of Title After Rival Leaks Racy Bikini Photo Online

A racy photo posted to social media by the rival of the reigning Miss Antioquia is causing quite a stir among pageant judges in Colombia. Paola Builes Aristizabal, he 21-year-old beauty queen in question, was stripped of her title after leaked photos of the pageant contestant donning a risqué suit were too much for the judges to handle.

The regional beauty queen was stripped of her crown after old photos of the then-teenage model with a serious amount of under-boob showing emerged, and judges ruled them inappropriate. Builes Aristizabal said she felt "discriminated" against in light of the punishment, and claimed the photographs had been online for "at least two years.

"There are other candidates that have pictures of themselves in lingerie, in tiny clothing, so I feel there’s discrimination," she said, according to bluradio. “I’m still in shock about the dismissal. On Sunday I was queen of all Antioqueños and (on Tuesday) there was a new queen."

Builes Aristizabal was a front-runner to win the upcoming Miss Colombia competition, but is unable to compete now that she's lost her title over the photos. 

The pageant favorite won her ticket to the Miss Colombia competition on Sunday after taking home the crown for the regional pageant, but according to reports, a rival contestant leaked the racy photos of her online the following morning. It is then that the beauty queen lost her chance at the bigger competition. 

Pageant organizers are calling the photo “inappropriate,” and are also claiming that it is a breach of competition rules, as there are regulations in place that prohibit contestants from being pictured in bikinis smaller than a certain size. 

Builes Aristizabal claims that she turned down a "lucrative" modeling work in order to compete in the pageant.
