If you spent all your savings on flights to Brazil and tickets to the FIFA World Cup earlier this year, you might regret not delaying your trip to attend Brazil’s “Miss Bum Bum Contest”, arguably a much larger (and rounder) event. The bootylicious extravaganza is a nationwide annual contest to determine who possesses the best back-end assets. This year’s 27 contestants, who represent the country’s different states, were announced last week.

God bless Brazil…

“Miss Bum Bum 2014” will start in São Paulo on August 11 and is posed to set the already hot summer ablaze. Brazilians have until November to vote online (their server is currently down from overheating) and determine the 15 finalists for the finale. This year the pageant will have a historic first since twins Rafaella and Graziella Fornazieri, representing Alagoas and Ácre respectively, entered the contest.

Dai Macedo, a 25-year-old model with a 42-inch bottom, was crowned “Miss Bum Bum 2013.” “It’s a lot of work, a lot of devotion,” Macedo told Agence France-Presse by way of an interpreter after winning the title. “I denied myself a lot of things. No nightclubs. No sweets. I went to the gym Saturdays and Sundays.” The winner of the pageant receives 50,000 reais (approx. $22,000) in endorsement deals and instant celebrity status in Brazil.

A few years ago, we at STC approached the “Miss Bum Bum” booty organizers with wishes to participate. We were notified that this was a Brazilian national delicacy with historic value and should be dealt with as such. But not all hope was lost since they might be flying the next winner to Miami for a closer look sometime later this year. We can only hope that Miami can survive the impending heat wave Miss Bum Bum 2014 is sure to bring.
