Brazil is challenging hetero-normative stereotypes and pushing boundaries with their daring new “Miss T” contest. The competition invites transgender and transvestite contestants from all over Brazil to compete in a beauty contest. The prize? As well as a bouquet and shimmering tiara, the winner would receive an all-expenses-paid trip to Thailand for the global version of the beauty contest, Miss International Queen 2014, plus the right to a sex change operation in a Bangkok hospital.
This year, the winner was Raika Ferraz, a 21-year old model and escort from São Paulo. She paraded around the Teatro João Caetano stage in a bikini and evening gown, before being announced the winner in front of an adoring audience of thousands.
You go, Raika Ferraz.
