Mexican beauty queen arrested for suspected drug smuggling

Laura Zuniga, a Mexican beauty queen was arrested in the company of heavily armed, suspected drug traffickers and has been stripped of her Hispanic American beauty title.

Laura and seven men were detained at a military checkpoint in central Mexico on Monday. Police found assault rifles and $55,000 in cash in the luxury vehicles they had been driving.

Fortunately, she hasn't posed for Playboy, which seems an even bigger sin in beauty contest circles!

Miss Great Britain for Parliament

If it was Italy, she'd probably have her clothes off!

clipped from news.yahoo.com LONDON (AFP) - Miss Great Britain vowed to "put the beauty back into politics" Monday as she launched a bid to get elected to parliament that could get Prime Minister Gordon Brown sweating. Gemma Garrett, 26, is standing for the newly-formed Beauties for Britain party. And the busty Belfast blonde could get Brown all hot under the collar with her antidote agenda to "serious and boring" politics. "It's a bit of fun and it's a bit light-hearted," she told reporters outside the Houses of Parliament in London. "I think that people should be proud of Britain and proud of themselves especially the beauties that Britain has produced over the years and I'm very proud to be Miss Great Britain and standing for this." Asked if she could help Brown tackle the global credit crunch and recover from Thursday's poll mauling, she replied: "No, but I could maybe give him some advice on beauty products."
