  • Story Text: Bulgarian teenager owns "The World's Most Beautiful Bottom,"
    according to the jury of an international contest held in Munich.
    The contest in the southern German city of Munich on Wednesday (October 31) was organised by a German lingerie maker which claims more than 15,000 candidates applied online "to convince the jury about the quality of their bottom."
    Kristina Dimitrova of Bulgaria proudly told reporters after winning the contest that she eats "everything."
    And not only that: "I put seven pieces of sugar into my coffee," Dimitrova said with a big smile.
    Male winner Andrei Andrei of Romania was equally enthusiastic although it remained unclear how serious he was when he pointed out what "a great feeling it is to be a winner, especially because I won with my ass."
    "It's kind of weird, it's good," said the 24-year-old.
    German contestant Kerstin Hafenrichter was not at all happy with the jury's selection and would have chosen a different male winner.
    "I never would have thought that that guy would win," she said of Andrei.
    "I had another favourite. They said the most beautiful bottom is wanted but to me, he did not have the most beautiful bottom."
    The seven member jury, among them a "psychologist who has completed scientific research on the formula for a perfect bottom,"
    "lingerie model and celebrity" Sophie Anderton and a "fitness guru whose job is to keep film stars" in top shape, selected the winners from among 43 finalists from 23 countries, according to the organisers.
    Winners Andrei and Dimitrova each receive 10,000 euros (14,450 U.S.
    dollars) in prize money, along with a modelling contract for the next underwear campaign and last but not least, "an insurance cover for their bottom."
    (1 USD =.6921 Euro)
