Homeless Beauty Contest Almost As Outrageous As Homelessness

Feminist groups in Belgium are angry about a “Miss Homeless” competition which offered a prize of a year’s free rent to one lucky-and presentable-undomiciled lady. “I am outraged,” said an activist. “These girls turned into puppets parodying their own life. Absolutely pathetic.” If you’re scoring at home, “Therese Van Belle, 58, was crowned the winner of the competition when she beat nine other finalists — who will now all go back on the streets.”
