China Awaits Crowning of Miss Plastic Surgery...

BEIJING (Reuters) - China will soon host the finals of the country's first beauty contest in which every contestant has gone under the knife.
Twenty "man-made" beauties will parade their surgical nips and tucks next Saturday in the hope of taking home the country's first Miss Artificial Beauty crown.

The contest is the latest addition to China's beauty pageant scene after Miss World was held in the southern island of Hainan for two years in a row.

Beauty pageants were once considered reviled displays of western decadence but have become big business in Communist-ruled China following more than two decades of economic reforms.

"I wanted to convey a message to society -- that the pursuit of beauty is ageless," said 62-year-old Liu Yulan, the oldest contestant who turned to plastic surgery to smooth facial wrinkles and fill out her drawn cheeks. Another contestant, who did not make the Miss Artificial Beauty finals, spent $36,000 in her quest for the perfect body, according to a Chinese Web site.

Organizers dreamed up the pageant after one woman who splashed $13,000 on improving her looks attempted to sue them for banning her from the finals of a traditional beauty contest in May.

Plastic surgery clinics offering everything from liposuction to eye re-modeling have mushroomed in major cities in China in recent years.

China Awaits Crowning of Miss Plastic Surgery 🙁
 
damn if those girls look like that now... wtf did they look like before the plastic surgery...

i like the funny stories of people who wonder why their kids are so ugly, only to find out that their "beautiful wife" is the product of plastic surgery.
 
its more of a plastic surgen competition than a beauty contest.
*shrug*

same thing happens here, except we call it "entertaining television"

maybe not ugly, but definitely not hot either. And I love asian girls...

It wouldn't be a big deal if this wasn't a plastic surgery competition

 
It is interesting in the context of the continuing westernization of China. I wonder if they would consider professional sports competitions where all athletes use artificial means to be stronger.
 
actually i think in some regards, we're even behind some asian countries in things like plastic surgery. I know that it's getting so common here that parents even give their kids plastic surgery as graduation gifts and whatnot, but apparently that's been the norm in places like korea for some time now. Or at least that's what a friend told me.
