5 Weirdest Beauty Pageants

Mr and Miss Mosquito Legs

The Great Texas Mosquito Festival is a three day, fun filled, family event. There are numerous contests, such as the Mosquito Chase “Run”, Doubles Horseshoe Pitching, Doubles Washer Pitching, BBQ and Fajita Cook-off, Grill Master Competition, O’ You Beautiful Doll Contest, Mr. & Mrs. Mosquito Legs Contest, a Mosquito Calling Contest, and many more outrageous events.

Miss Condom

Featuring 20 contestants from four different nations, the contest aims to promote safe sex in Thailand — a country on the front-line in the war against HIV/AIDS in Asia. The contestants of Miss Condom had to show off their condom blowing-up skills and dazzle judges with their knowledge of HIV.”They can understand (condoms). They play with them and there’s no value judgment,” said Senator Mechai Viravaidya, known as “Mr. Condom” for his work in promoting AIDS awareness in Thailand.

Miss Beautiful Morals

Miss Beautiful Morals is Saudi-e-Arabia’s beauty pageant. Here the judges don’t care about a perfect figure or face. What they’re looking for in the quest for “Miss Beautiful Morals” is the contestant who shows the most devotion and respect for her parents. “The idea of the pageant is to measure the contestants’ commitment to Islamic morals… It’s an alternative to the calls for decadence in the other beauty contests that only take into account a woman’s body and looks,” said pageant founder Khadra al-Mubarak.

Miss Land Mine

According to Traavik, the curator of the event : “My then-girlfriend has an Angolan father, who lives in the capital Luanda and whom we visited over Xmas and New Year in 2003. The civil war had ended just the year before and we still couldn’t move around much because of all the landmines still littering the countryside. Some street kids were staging a homemade beauty pageant in the back alley behind the father’s house and they asked me to sit in on the jury. So at some point those two impressions gave birth to one idea. Since I figured I was probably the only one in the world with that particular idea at that time, that gave me a moral obligation to at least try to put it into action.”

Certainly in Traavik’s eyes, the contest was an unmitigated success, as it sparked conversation about land mine victims the world over. The show was planned for Cambodia the following year but whereas the Angola government embraced it, the Cambodian government shut it down in an emergency meeting hours before it was due to start.

Miss and Mister Beautiful Bottom

The Most Beautiful Bottom in the World contest was launched in 2007 by the underwear manufacturer Sloggi. To be eligible for “Deutschland Sucht Den Sloggi-Po”, male and female entrants must submit photos of themselves in their gaunch to be reviewed and voted for online. The winner wins the “the world’s most beautiful” bum title, US$12,085.06 and the chance to be Sloggi’s next model.
