Spanking new from their "over the moon" finishes at the recent beauty pageants, Venezuela is set to triumph over at the vibrant city of Tokyo at the 53rd Miss International 2013.

At the Miss Universe 2013 pageant in Moscow, Steven Tyler asked Miss Venezuela: "What is your biggest fear and how do you plan to overcome it?"

María Gabriela Isler replied: "We should overcome all our fears and this in turn would make us stronger. As soon as we overcome our fears, we can face any challenge." And she won the coveted crown and got seventh title for the nation."

In Jakarta, Indonesia, on Nov. 21, Venezuela's Jose Anmer Paredes has won Mister International title. The pageant organizers explained that "his amazing figure, intelligence, and good answers" put him right on the top.

Hence Elian Herrera leads Miss International 2013 Hot Picks. She was the runner-up of Miss Universe 2013 Maria Gabriela Isler at last year's Miss Venezuela pageant. With a height of 184 centimeters, Herrera is the tallest candidate on record among the 77 contestants.

If this statuesque beauty wins the title, she will bring country its seventh Miss International crown.

Miss International picks the most persuasive and socially appealing representative from among the beautiful international delegates who come to compete in the yearly pageant, also dubbed as a "cultural gathering of ambassadors of goodwill."

Herrera has the intrinsic worth and many attributes which fits well in the Miss international criteria.
