Who's the Fairest of Them All?
It was a tiara-filled weekend with the crowing of Miss World, Miss Hawaiian Tropic and the one and only Mr. Gay UK. With all these pageants taking place at the same time, TMZ wants to know, who'd win if they went head-to-head?
First there's Tatana Kucharova, an 18-year-old student from the Czech Republic. Kucharova beat out 103 women for the bragging rights that come with the coveted Miss World crown.
The stunning blonde is not only gorgeous, but plans to put her winnings towards attending a university. While admirable, she definitely loses points because she says she plans to become a model after graduation.
Next there's the the not one but four winners of the Miss Hawaiian Tropic International United States Pageant. While we don't know their names, we're sure their home states of Arizona, Texas, Hawaii and Nebraska are surely proud of their bathing suit beauties.
Of course winning this competition probably won't lead to much other than posing for calendars aimed at 13-year-old boys and a future working at Hooters.
Last, but certainly not least, there's Mr. Gay UK. 23-year-old Yorkshire police officer Mark Carter proved how truly arresting he was as he stripped down to a Speedo to beat 25 other young hunks for the title.
Carter will have to compete against 40 other finalists (including the ironic Mr. Gay Vatican City) for the title of International Mr. Gay 2007 at the finals later this month.
The winner receives a possible cover for Instinct Magazine, a Caribbean cruise and a vacation package to Puerta Vallarta, among other prizes.
While the ladies are hotter than Hades, there's just something about a man in (and out) of uniform that gives him the all-important edge.
