**Miss Universe 1957** was the sixth [Miss Universe](/source/Miss_Universe) pageant, held at the [Long Beach Municipal Auditorium](/source/Long_Beach_Convention_and_Entertainment_Center) in [Long Beach](/source/Long_Beach%2C_California), California, on 19 July 1957.

[Gladys Zender](/source/Gladys_Zender) of Peru won the contest, and was crowned by [Carol Morris](/source/Carol_Morris) of the United States. Zender was the first representative of Peru to win the contest.

After her win, it was revealed that Zender was only seventeen years old, five months under the contest's minimum age requirement of eighteen. Pageant officials decided that she could keep the crown after they were told she was considered to be eighteen in her country due to an old custom explained to them by the then-Peruvian ambassador to the United States, [Fernando Berckemeyer Pazos](/source/List_of_ambassadors_of_Peru_to_the_United_States).[1]

Contestants from thirty-two countries and territories competed in the pageant. It was hosted by [Bob Russell](/source/Bob_Russell_(television_presenter)) for the sixth time.

## Background

Long Beach Municipal Auditorium, the venue of Miss Universe 1957

### Selection of participants

Contestants from thirty-two countries and territories were selected to compete in the pageant. It was the first where women who were married and had children could not compete, which in turn became the reason why one candidate was disqualified after the preliminary competition.[2] One contestant was selected to replace the original winner.

#### Debuts, returns, and withdrawals

This edition saw the debuts of Martinique, Morocco, and Paraguay, and the returns of Austria, Ceylon, Hawaii, and South Korea. Austria and Hawaii last competed in [1953](/source/Miss_Universe_1953), while Ceylon and South Korea last competed in [1955](/source/Miss_Universe_1955). The British Guiana, Chile, the Dominican Republic, and the United States withdrew after their respective organizations failed to hold a national competition or appoint a delegate.[2] [Corine Rottschäfer](/source/Corine_Rottsch%C3%A4fer) of Holland was set to compete, however she had just won another international contest that barred her entry. Rottschäfer competed the following year.[3]

#### Disqualification of Miss USA

[Leona Gage](/source/Mary_Leona_Gage), [Miss USA 1957](/source/Miss_USA_1957), was announced as one of the fifteen semi-finalists, but was removed from the contest on the afternoon before the final after it was discovered that she was married and the mother of two young children.[4][5] Miss Argentina, Mónica Lamas, who was sixteenth in the preliminary competition, replaced Gage.[2] Gage was also stripped of her Miss USA title, and was replaced by [Charlotte Sheffield](/source/Charlotte_Sheffield) of Utah. Sheffield was unable to compete because the preliminary competition had already taken place.[6][7] Sheffield competed at [Miss World 1957](/source/Miss_World_1957), and was unplaced.[8]
