Miss Universe praises Salman Khan

The reigning Miss Universe finds Salman Khan ''hot'' and thinks he has ''an amazing body,'' a news report said Monday.

Zuleyka Rivera, a Puerto Rican, met the Indian star who gave her a ride on his motorbike😆 in Mumbai, India's financial and entertainment capital, 'The Times of India' newspaper reported.

''Yeah, I met Salman Khan,'' the report quoted her as saying. ''Well, he is hot for sure.''

''He has an amazing body and a great sense of humor,'' said Rivera, who visited India to promote an AIDS awareness campaign.

Rivera also said she has never been in love. ''But I truly believe in it,'' she said. ''May be I will soon find the one for me.''

Rivera said the reality that she won the beauty crown in July is yet to sink in. ''I feel like Miss Universe only when people want to take my pictures,'' she said.

She also said she plans to become an actress ''like Angelina Jolie, who is very good.''

Rivera was taking part in the Miss Universe Foundation's campaign to promote AIDS awareness in India, which is pushing the message ''Get Tested (for AIDS), It's in Fashion.''

Salman Khan is one of the Bollywood actors who supported the campaign.

India, with 5.7 million infections, has the world's largest number of people living with HIV/AIDS. But its population of more than 1.2 billion means the prevalence rate is low.
