Former mayor forced to issue statement over her breasts at World Cup

A former mayor who has been turning the heads of football fans has been forced to issue a statement about the stir her boobs are causing.

A lot of people who have been in close proximity of Sandra Cuevas at revelries for the 2026 World Cup have been more preoccupied with her chest rather than the action on the pitch.

The 40-year-old, from Mexico, has now addressed the attention that her assets have brought her.

Cuevas is the former mayor of the Mexico City borough of Cuauhtemoc, which is a position she held from October 2021 to March 2024.

According to reports, she's no stranger to being the centre of attention, as she adopted quite a flamboyant approach to politics.

El Pais previously reported that she put on an extravagant display for her first day as mayor - which involved a red carpet, fireworks, and butterflies - while she also performed interesting stunts such as throwing balls filled with cash to her supporters from her office balcony.

Frenzy seems to follow the businesswoman wherever she goes, including while she's been out and about celebrating Mexico's success in the World Cup so far.

The team became the first country to advance to the knockout stage after bagging a 1–0 win over South Korea, while they previously thrashed South Africa 2-0.

Cuevas has been sharing snippets of her merrymaking online and a lot of social media users have been passing comment on her cleavage.

Although you should keep your thoughts on other peoples physiques to yourself, the former mayor has said that she takes the chatter around her breasts as a compliment.

She's particularly thrilled with the fact that a lot of folks have been comparing her to Mar Castro too, who is a model who was affectionately dubbed 'La Chiquitibum' after starring in a 1986 World Cup advert.

Cuevas said of the discussion surrounding her bust, as per The Sun: "The Chiquitibum…well, guys, what can I do, I can’t just take them off.

"They had already nicknamed me that and it amuses me, I like it. I don’t take it as an attack, there will be those who think that way and take it in a derogatory way, but that’s how we Mexicans are.”

Social media users seem to think Cuevas is an absolute hoot, as people are leaving tons of compliments under her TikTok posts.

In one clip shared on Friday (19 June), she explained she got right in the mix while celebrating Mexico's victory over South Korea.

She captioned the post: "Here in the front row to celebrate the triumph of the Mexican national team, with the neighbourhood, with the people, enjoying life and our most beautiful!"

One person cheekily commented: "We were hoping for a cleavage shot..."

Another added: "This woman really represents the country. Long live Sandra Cueva!"

A third wrote: "Beautiful as always."

A fourth said: "Just let baddies be baddies omg."

And a fifth chimed in: "We need more politicians like this."

Cuevas has also been sharing other videos showing off her stylish outfits and bold makeup looks, which have also proved to be a hit with her 659,000 followers.

So, it seems like Mexico's players will have to come to terms with sharing the spotlight with the former mayor during the 2026 World Cup.
