An ICON because...
Venezuelan football freestyler Laura Biondo has proved time and again that she's a superstar.
The footballer started playing when she was 10 years old, encouraged by her older brother, and quickly rose to international fame as she collected multiple world records and international titles.
To this day, Laura is the only Latin American to be crowned world champion and the best-ranked Latin American in the history of freestyle. As of 2023, the pro athlete has collected 15 record titles... and we're still counting!
The multi-talented athlete has also performed for Cirque du Soleil's acclaimed show Luzia, and she proudly encourages girls to pursue football, working hard to bring this increasingly popular discipline to the masses while wowing the crowd with her amazing football tricks.
