Venus Xtravaganza (1965-1988)

American transgender performer.

Venus Xtravaganza (22.05.1965 - 21.12.1988)

She came to national attention after her appearance in Jennie Livingston's 1990 documentary film Paris Is Burning, in which her life as a trans woman forms one of the film's several story arcs.

On Christmas Day in 1988, Xtravaganza was found strangled under a bed at the Duchess Hotel in New York. It was estimated that her body had been there for four days before discovery. Shooting for Paris Is Burning was ongoing, and the film's final minutes include Angie Xtravaganza reacting to her death. Angie Xtravaganza said she felt that Venus was one to take too many chances, that she "was too wild with people in the streets", and that she feared "something going to happen to." Angie Xtravaganza was the first person detectives approached with the news of Xtravaganza's death, and it was she who broke the news to the latter's biological parents.

In Paris Is Burning, Xtravaganza describes a time she narrowly escaped an attack by a man who discovered she was transgender during an intimate encounter, and it is possible her murder occurred during a similar situation. Her killer was never found.I She is buried at Holy Cross Cemetery in North Arlington, New Jersey. She was 23.

Maribel Arrieta (1934-1989)

Salvadoran TV host, model and beauty pageant titleholder who was crowned Miss El Salvador 1955 and represented her country at Miss Universe 1955 in Long Beach, California.

Maribel Arrieta (22.08.1934 - 31.08.1989)

Arrieta is most known for her strong resemblance to Marilyn Monroe, leading people to dub her as "the Marilyn Monroe of El Salvador".

Arrieta ultimately finished as first runner-up, losing to Hillevi Rombin, but not before taking home the title of "Miss Congeniality". She is the first Hispanic woman to become first-runner up in the Miss Universe pageant.
