Miss Universe Candidates at the Jockey Club in São Paulo |
Most of us know that beauty contests in this part of the world are a comparatively popular event but earlier this month São Paulo hosted one that surprised me on a number of counts:
1. It was publicy funded and officially organised by the state of São Paulo government
2. It included categories such as: Mister Sorriso (best smile), Mister Timidez (shyness), ou Mister Elegância (elegance) as well as the obligatory Mr Belleza (beauty)
3. It was for retired pensioners only
I´ve never heard of an over-60 beauty contest and definitely not a state-sponsored one but here are the photos of the 2011 winners to prove it:

It's a long long way from Flic en Flac to São Paulo.
Dad - if you're reading this you know who to cheer for in this year's competition!!
I'm not surprised that different kinds of beauty pageants come from this side of the globe. People can't seem to get enough! I like the idea of a senior beauty pageant, though.
