The most honest beauty competition in the world kicks off in Brazil on August 7th. That's when the country's annual Miss Bumbum competition begins, and the nation chooses the best representative butt-tastic bodaciousness. No questions about saving the world, no flute-playing contestants on unicycles—it's all about butts.
Miss Bumbum contestants from various regions of the country—Brazil is only a little smaller than the United States—submit applications to take part. Beginning on the 7th they then face public voting on their, uh, qualities.
Finalists do some turns on the catwalk and model for photographers before a winner is finally announced.
