MIAMI, Nov. 13, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- The well-known journalist, author and international speaker Ismael Cala has been invited to sit on the official Selection Committee for Miss Universe 2025, which is to be held in Thailand. His selection represents a further move towards a more conscious and humanist view of beauty, in line with the cultural transformation driving organization of the contest.
In recent decades, Miss Universe has been moving towards a platform of diversity and empowerment, allowing married women, mothers and transgender women to take part, and lifting age restrictions. Cala's presence on the committee reinforces this spirit of change, where beauty is measured more by stories, cohesion and purpose than measurements or appearance.
As Ismael Cala puts it: "This won't be the parading of looks, but a space for expression, integrity and legacy. Because on this stage, I want to reward not just a particular face or a particular height, but a story that inspires. Real beauty blossoms when we accept our scars, celebrate our identity and use our story as a platform to make an impact. Beauty on its own is no longer enough, it is something that's actually lived."
Cala's involvement underlies his commitment to an integral vision of leadership and communication, values he has been promoting for over 15 years through Cala Enterprises and the Ismael Cala Foundation, organizations that develop emotional education and human development in America.
The international Selection Committee for Miss Universe 2025 will bring together influential individuals from various sectors, consolidating a historic pageant this year that promises to redefine modern beauty standards.
