Moscow
The winner of a new Russian beauty contest must be attractive, talented and witty.
But never mind wanting to help children. She should also symbolize Russia's constitution.
"This constitution is a state brand and today we want to choose a girl worthy of its image," a Nashi spokeswoman.
Nashi will crown Miss Constitution on December 12 to celebrate the document's 15th anniversary. Other Russian youth groups will also take part.
"The girls must prove they are gifted in many ways," the spokeswoman said. "Talented, clever, erudite, artistic, witty, graceful, flexible and most important of all not without sparkle."
Sparkle? I am all for flexible and witty. Who wants a solemn contortionist for Miss Constitution? But there is just something about having Sparkle that gives that Star Search contestant a little extra umph...and that folks is why those with Sparkle get 3 3/4 stars while the rest get 3 stars.
