Alicia Machado
Alicia Machado, the beauty queen, actress, as well as model, was born as Yoseph Alicia Machado Fajardo on December 6, 1976, located in Maracay, Venezuela. Alicia comes from a wide heritage with her father being Spanish as well as her mother who is from Cuban descendance. Through her entire life she's made an impact in the field of beauty pageants, TV, as well as film. Alicia Machado began her rise to the top of the list when at 19, she won her title as Miss Venezuela representing Yaracuy. Machado was crowned Miss Universe 1996 one year following her crowning Miss Venezuela. This made her four-time Venezuelan contestant to win the title. In her time during her time as Miss Universe, however, was fraught with controversy and negative attention from the media because of her weight gain throughout her time as Miss Universe. Donald Trump, who owned the Miss Universe Organization at the moment, publicly mocked her about her weight gain, saying she was "Miss Piggy" and forcing her to work out in front of the media. The incident led to a heated conflict among Alicia Trump with Donald Trump.
