A Cree Woman From Alberta Just Won Mrs. Universe 2015
Ashley Burnham is from Enoch Cree Nation in Alberta.
Ashley Burnham, a member of Enoch Cree Nation in Alberta, was just crowned Mrs. Universe 2015 at an event held in Minsk, Belarus. She is the first First Nations woman and the first Canadian to win.
Burnham, whose maiden name is Callingbull, is a model and actress.
She posted about the win on her Instagram account: "I'm so proud to say I am now the new @mrsuniverse2015 !!! I am the first First Nations woman to win this title! I am also the first Canadian Delegate to win as well!! Sooooooo happy right now!"
The Mrs. Universe pageant, for married women, is not to be confused with the Miss Universe Pageant. That pageant is held in January.
