I remember that
the first time I saw her was in the contest " The Model of the
Year ". I remember that in this contest there were 2 Elsas,
Elsa Benítez since then had to use her complete name. I remember
that she was not my favourite and I was surprised when Ms. Ford
chose her as the winner, no wonder Ms.Ford has the most important
model agency worldwide.
Back
then, Martha Cristiana (Miss Puebla 85), Natalia Esperón and
Maria Luisa Perez Mitre (Miss Baja California 92) participated.
Luisa abdicated to enter this contest where she was left out
, later she participated Our Beauty BC 94 and again was left
out.
Later
Elsa took part in a models contest worldwide. Elsa was one
of the 14 semifinalists. In this occasion the winner was Canada.
But since then Elsa has given much
to talk about and nowadays is one of our prides.
Complementary Information:
Before taking part in the model
of the year Elsa won in the nineties her first contest, "
Model of the Cortes sea".
In 1996 her debut was in the magazine
Vogue
with an orange bathing suit. The
beauty of the Mexican woman has been admired in publications
as Marie Claire, Cosmopolitan, Elle, Glamour, Harper's Bazaar,
Mademoiselle, Vogue Italy, where she has appeared in the front
page.
Elsa Benítez has conquered audiences
worldwide. She had several contracts to film a movie which
she refused to reveal, since she assures that she is preparing
herself to give the great jump to the big screen, though already
in 1994 she took part in a French television production “Requins
a La Havane” (Requins to The Havane).
An anecdote from the proper In
1996, Elsa was about to board a flight that exploded in the
air. "she was going to board flight 800 TWA, Boeing 747, to
Paris that exploted soon after taking off JFK's airport in
July, 1996. " I left the airport because I has a bad feeling.
I began to cry and could not stop. I called to my husband
and told him: ' I feel that something is going to happen'.
He said that I should wait 10 minutes and if I still had the
same feeling, that I should change my flight. Then I noticed
that "Life is a gift ", indicated Elsa Benítez. |
