Black Woman Wins Miss Universe 2011

Leila Lopes of Angola has been crowned Miss Universe 2011. Lopes is hopeful that her win will help her to represent her home country of Angola in its quest to counter the country's history of war and poverty. She also wants to fight HIV around the world. 

Below is the answer she provided the judges which likely gave her victory.  When asked which of her physical trait she would like to change, Laila Lopes said: "Thank God I’m very satisfied with the way God created me and I wouldn’t change a thing…I consider myself a woman endowed with inner beauty. I have acquired many wonderful principles from my family and I intend to follow these for the rest of my life." 

What a brilliant girl, a true African queen!
