Introduction:
Playa del Carmen, Quintana Roo—Rapper Miles Higher, known for his laid-back style and smooth charisma, has officially been named the city’s “Puma Whisperer” after winning a lighthearted competition celebrating Playa’s most cougar-adored local celebrity.
The Event:
What began as a running joke among his fans blossomed into the first-ever Cougar Contest, organized by a group of Playa’s older resident women affectionately called “Pumas.” Participants were judged on charm, charisma, and their ability to connect with Playa’s vibrant over-40 scene.
Miles entered the contest unwittingly when a fan nominated him on social media. “I thought I was just here to freestyle and maybe grab some free margaritas,” Miles joked after his win.
A Landslide Victory:
Held at a popular beach club, the competition featured categories like Best Serenade and Dance with a Puma. Miles swept every round, effortlessly charming the crowd with his quick wit and laid-back demeanor. His acceptance of the golden puma trophy was met with cheers and a standing ovation.
Reactions:
“I mean, who else could win?” said contest organizer Veronica Lopez, 52. “Miles has a way of making everyone feel special. Plus, his music? Swoon-worthy.”
The victory has cemented Miles’s status as a local legend, with residents already calling for a second contest next year.
“I’m just here for the vibes,” Miles said, grinning as he posed with his trophy and a group of adoring fans. For Playa’s favorite Puma Whisperer, it seems the love is mutual.
