With grand finale of Miss Universe 2013 pageant just a few days away, Miss USA Erin Brady And Miss Spain Patricia Rodriguez are emerging as the hottest bet for the crown. According to the Bet365.com, Erin Brady and Patricia Rodriguez both stand at 6.5 and in all probability one of them will win the Miss Universe title this year.

Brady and Rodriguez with 6.5 rating have surpassed once the most popular contestant, Ariella Arida (who now stands at 3.0). In spite of bagging the Ice Princess title, Arida has witnessed a decline in popularity due to her imprudent choice of gown and national costume.

One of her fans wrote on the Missosology Facebook page. "Seriously????There are only 3 or 4 gowns that really standsout for me...but i was so disappointed with miss philippines gown...it seems like, ughh!!!!!There should be better that fits her perfectly and can define her as beauty extraordinary...pls change it!!!!i still love miss philippines though."

Ariella Arida is a chemistry graduate and aspires to become an entrepreneur. The Filipino beauty is a sports enthusiast and has worked hard on herself to stand out in the Miss Universe competition.

Meanwhile, Erin Brady was a financial accountant with Prudent Retirement before winning the Miss USA title. Brady belongs to East Hampton and she graduated from Central Connecticut State University with a degree in finance and criminal justice. The 25-year-old beauty belongs to a family of alcoholics and wishes to help the children who belong to the family like hers. She is a spokesperson for breast and ovarian cancer education, prevention and awareness and works closely with organizations such as Gilda's Club, Susan G. Komen and the National Ovarian Cancer Alliance.

Miss Spain Patricia Rodriguez was one of the Miss World semi finalists in 2008. The Spanish beauty is being hailed by Russian media and she aspires to become an actor.
