Turk Posted February 5, 2014 Share Posted February 5, 2014 Posted 7 hours agoVenezuelan teenager Meyer takes desperate measures in a bid to win the country's most vaunted beauty pageant.As she sits down to dinner she reveals a plastic mesh which has been sewn onto her tongue. It makes it painful to eat solids, forcing her to stick to soup and keeping her weight down.Meyer's family runs a convenience store in the Santa Cruz barrio in Caracas and raised £7,000 to pay for cosmetic surgery to improve her chances of winning.In the first episode of a three-part series about beauty, sex and money in South America, Billie JD Porter visits 18-year-old Meyer, a contestant in the Miss Venezuela beauty contest, and speaks to her about the sacrifices she and her family are making.http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-latin-america-25962930 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
