Gines added: "It's the same commitment we have today since we started in the 1960s. Times have changed. Our audience has changed. The qualities of contestants changed. Now it's advocacy driven. Its beauty and advocacy intersect.

"So we will continue to do it and produce quality beauty pageants. Because of how we are interconnected, times have changed and we have to roll with the technology as well," he also said.
