Amelia Vega brought the Miss Universe title home to the Dominican Republic back in 2003. She is listed as an actress, singer, model and charity worker these days. At the tender age of 18, she is one of the youngest winners ever. Her beauty, impressive personality and her skills as a musician did her justice in the contest. Vega’s father is a medical practitioner with offices in New York City and Miami while her mom was also a beauty queen, the 1980 representative for the Dominican Republic in the Miss World Pageant. Vega attended and graduated from Barbizon Modeling and Acting School in Santo Domingo to hone her skills.
