Ximena Navarrete Wants to Focus on Modeling in 2015, Will be Moving to New York

Ximena Navarrete is ready to get back to her roots.

The beauty queen wants to take on modeling in 2015, according to Univision's "Hoy."

"I'm actually negotiating [projects in New York] with my agency, which I kind of let fall by the wayside when I started working on the novela and other things" she said. "We're working on that again."

She does add that she doesn't know if it's going to work out, but it is her plan. She further explained that people always make plans, but that things can change as time goes by.

"We'll see what 2015 has in store, but I'm sure it'll be very good," she said.

Navarrete wouldn't talk about whether or not she's landed certain fashion campaigns, but she did tease that there were cool things in the works.

The former Miss Universe also talked about wanting to work with those who most need help in Mexico. But just like most of her other projects, it's something she's still working on.

Navarrete said that she is not ready to step back into another telenovela role. She is instead working on improving as an actress.

"Well, yes, they have approached me to [take on some roles]," she said. "But we'll see. I'd love to have something interesting to do on television. I would love to return. I am preparing for that."

Navarrete expressed how thankful she was that her parents were healthy, and that her grandmother was around. She said that even though her grandmother is about 86, she is still strong.

The 26-year-old Latina star recently posted a throwback picture of herself onto her Instagram account. Navarrete is 5 years old in the black-and-white snap, but even then, the model's signature bold eyebrows can be seen.
