    1. “The song I sang is by my band. It’s my job, my life.”

      Ignacia Fernández, 27, model, vocalist, and founder of Chilean progressive death metal outfit Decessus, turned the Miss World Chile 2025 semifinal on its head last Sunday, November 2, by unleashing a death metal performance on the pageant stage.

      Representing Las Condes in this year’s competition — and aiming ultimately for a place at Miss Universe — Fernández chose not to dilute who she is. For the talent segment, she appeared in an elegant ball gown and delivered an original Decessus track, joined onstage by guitarist Carlos Palma.

      first, both judges and attendees seemed stunned by the contrast between brutal vocals and pageant glamour. Within moments, shock gave way to enthusiasm, culminating in a standing ovation; one judge even remarked he had never witnessed anything like it in such a contest. The bold decision paid off: Fernández secured a spot among the top 20 contestants and advanced to the final, scheduled for Sunday, November 9.

      metal band.

    6. The dress and the voice aren’t synching.
      Sje did take a big risk, which is awesome!
      The audience immovable,quietly applauding 😳😬
      Noy a mosh pit, to be had for miles!!

    7. Sure as shit that’s someone who is more into death metal than they are being a beauty pageant contestant. 

      Cuz that could have gone over like a lead balloon.

    8. You know she wants to headbang between lyrics so bad but can’t mess up her beautiful hair. I love this so much and hope she wins!

    9. Finally someone brings something actually interesting to these pageants instead of another boring piano cover
