Miss Prison Contest to Be Held in Lithuania

An unusual beauty contest will take place in Lithuania. The contest will be called “Miss Prison.” The winner of the contest will be named the most beautiful female prisoner of Lithuania. This unexampled event will take place in the hall of the women’s prison in the town of Paneavezys. RIA Novosti news agency reported that there will be eight contestants for the Miss Prison title.

Showman Arunas Valinskas said that the point of the contest was to find beauty where it is not likely to be found. “In spite of the fact that our contestants are prisoners, they are women, first and foremost,” said the showman (it was he who organized the event). Arunas Valinskas added that women who have been convicted of murder, robbery, or many other serious crimes are not going to participate in the contest. Miss Prison will receive a prize of $2,700. However, she will see the money only after she is free.
