Through thorns to the stars: what girls go to for the sake of winning a beauty contest

Women all over the world, watching slender beauties in bikinis from TV screens, involuntarily begin to envy, because their life seems to them so cloudless and happy. However, no one knows what is really behind a toned body, photo shoots for glossies, contracts with fashion brands and thousands of royalties.

The whole truth about the underside of the beauty contests of the story Ekaterina Astashenkova — Miss Top-model of The World 2018 and Miss Globe 2018.

Tough competition

Any girl (without exception) would like to try on the coveted crown and get the title of "the most beautiful in the world". And when she finds herself literally a few steps away from her goal, all concepts of friendship, mutual respect, politeness, kindness and other benefactors are "erased" from her head. Now there is only her and the crown, and also competitors who need to get rid of.

Many participants of beauty contests specifically recognize the weaknesses of their rivals and use them to their advantage. There have been cases when tapes with the name of the country were stolen from girls, and it is forbidden to go on stage without them. Therefore, almost like in any women's team, there is a rather tense atmosphere and fierce competition. Ladies who intend to test their strength in such contests should be ready for this.

Lack of rest and stress

The life of a model is continuous shooting. And they do not stop even at the time of the beauty contest. On the contrary, organizers and sponsors, taking advantage of the opportunity, ask girls to participate in advertising shoots, as a rule, on a free basis. And models cannot refuse such projects, because this is practically a prerequisite for participation in the competition.

It is also worth adding a constant lack of sleep, because often beauties have to spend the whole day on photo shoots, and in the morning early — go to new projects. And at the same time, of course, they should not forget to take care of themselves — a model with bags under her eyes and a tired look is not needed by anyone.

Beauty at any cost

As we have already written above, girls working in the modeling business are simply obliged to take care of their appearance. First of all, this concerns their figure. Beauties limit themselves literally in everything, sometimes they sit on strict diets to get rid of an extra kilogram, and sometimes they drink only water at all.

But at beauty contests and other events, they often have to attend dinner parties, where there is a huge amount of delicious dishes and drinks, and the only thing they can do is, again, water. In such cases, some girls allow themselves to enjoy the desired dishes, but after 10 minutes they get rid of them in the restroom. It is not surprising that many models suffer from bulimia and anorexia.

Profitable business

It turns out that the coveted crown can be purchased for money! Why suffer, exhaust yourself with diets, stay up at night and work out in the gym? Just some 30,000 euros and the victory is yours! This is exactly what unscrupulous employees assure naive and fame-hungry beauties. As a rule, they cannot influence the jury's decision in any way and play only an indirect role in the filming or holding of the event.

But the girls believe. They believe and pay. The organization receives money, and the girl is left with nothing. As Ekaterina Astashenkova notes, this is a fairly popular type of business when scammers sell prizes in beauty contests, participation in TV shows, and so on.

On stage through the bed

Sometimes the participants of beauty contests get to know the jury members "closer" in order to win their favor in advance. If a girl who had not even been among the favorites before suddenly gets the crown, it becomes clear that there was no assistant here.

There have been cases when, due to such "proximity", the judges selected more participants for the competition than stated in the regulations, explaining this as an "exception to the rules". By the way, according to the model, most often the initiative to establish close contact with the girl comes from a member of the jury. Well, the beauty, in the hope that this will bring her closer to the coveted crown, simply cannot refuse.

But, as in the case of money, an affair with a member of the jury does not guarantee a 100% victory in the competition. Therefore, girls can be said to "sell" their beauty in vain and then regret it very much.

These are just the "pitfalls" that the model and the winner of beauty contests decided to tell about Miss Top-model of The World 2018 and Miss Globe 2018 Ekaterina Astashenkova. It is possible that in reality girls have even more difficult. Therefore, before you go to demonstrate your appearance at such an event, think three times: are you ready to go through the thorns to the stars?
