Miss United Kingdom will have slightly better luck than Miss Bosnia - she'll be allowed to compete in the forthcoming Miss World pageant despite a flap over topless photographs of her in a British tabloid.
Organizers say Nicola Willloughby was tricked into doing the topless photo shoot, and her plea not to be frozen out of the pageant "had found favor," says Reuters.
"She was young, she needed the money…and (the photographer) promised her the photos would never, ever be published," an unidentified Miss World spokeswoman tells Reuters.
Miss World is being held in Britain for the first time in 10 years.
Last month, Miss Bosnia, Alisa Sisic, was pulled from the Miss World lineup after a Sarajevo newspaper published photographs of her in the nude. Her Miss Bosnia crown was handed to the first runner-up, and she denounced the newspaper in a tearful press conference.
