The "Nuestra Belleza Latina" VIP finale is just around the corner! For those who were not aware, NBL kicked off 2016 with "Nuestra Belleza Latina VIP" with 12 former finalists returning to the show for a second shot at the coveted title. During the semi-finals, where the girls were joined by J Balvin, Gente De Zona and Calibre 50, the judges and audience said goodbye to fifth finalist and Mexican contestant Ligia Uriarte, leaving Barbara Turbay, Clarissa Molina, Catherine Castro and Setareh Khatibi in the final four.

The special edition, which is in celebration of the show's 10th season, included new challenges and a new concept. Almost 100 finalists from previous seasons auditioned and only 12 had another chance to walk down the catwalk and battle it out for the crown. The new season was also charged with more excitement, as it was the first time that participants would have access to their social media platforms and stay in touch with fans throughout the competition.

The show is hosted by Chiquinquira Delgado and Javier Poza with 2015 NBL winner Francisca Lachapel as social media presenter. Former crowned winners, such as Alejandra Espinoza, Marisela Demontecristo and Nastassja Bolivar, also jumped on board the new season. Without further ado, here's a bit more of information on the four finalists.
