Trivia
- This makes it the first time in the pageant's history that a Miss Nicaragua is NOT crowned by her predecessor, because Nastassja Bolívar got dethroned a month before this pageant.[2] The reason for this dethronement is that Nastassja didn’t agree to the modeling agreement that is part of the contract that competitors have to sign to compete. According to reports, Nastassja backed out before the Miss Universe 2013 but because they were so short on time, the Miss Nicaragua Orzanization let her represent them anyway on the competition in Russia. Now that the competition is over, they are taking the crown away.
- Marline Barberena was crowned by the hostess Valeria Sanchez instead of the 1st runner-up of 2013 or Mrs. Karen Celebertti, National Director of the Miss Nicaragua Orzanization creating widespread controversy.
