New Miss Great Britain Yet To Be Brought Down By Scandal

Did you know that in Britain, you can bet on the outcome of beauty pageants? (You can place a bet on almost anything over there from we understand, but betting on babe parades seems like a particularly bad investment strategy.) This does have the benefit of allowing one to quantify just how big an upset it was for someone like Rachael Tennant to be named Miss Great Britain yesterday. At 25-1, the beauty from Aberdeen, Scotland, came out of nowhere to beat a host of Gemmas, Claires and other Rachaels (seriously, were these names given out by court order 20 years ago?) and even a pair of Page 3 veterans to claim the crown. The next question of course is what scandal will threaten to destory her career make her even more famous? It will be tough to top 2006 champion Danielle Lloyd's judge-humping adventure, but in a land where topless models like Michelle Marsh are the favorites to represent your country to the world, perhaps they're relaxing the standards for "moral certitude" a bit. We only hope that Miss USA and Miss America learn a thing or two about propriety from these birds.
