Lupita Jones was Mexico's first Miss Universe, q dispute between Jones and the pageant organizers, led to a break between the pageant and the broadcast network Televisa. When the pageant moved to TV Azteca network, a competing pageant called "Nuestra Belleza México" was created, later directed by Miss Jones with the sponsorship of Televisa TV Network.[1][2]
In 1994, Señorita México fail to gain the rights to Nuestra Belleza México, to be the official pageant for Miss Universe. Later Nuestra Belleza México obtained the rights to send Mexico's contestants to Miss World and Miss International.[3][4]
