Miss France 2008 keeps title despite racy photos

[one...two...tree 2,762]

PARIS - Miss France 2008 will keep her crown, despite racy photos that appeared recently in a gossip magazine, but will not compete in the Miss World or Miss Universe pageants.

Valerie Begue, 22, will not be stripped of the title she won Dec. 8, but will not be allowed to take part in upcoming international competitions, Miss France organizers said Friday.

Begue described the outcome as "a compromise which satisfies all parties."

The pageant's criteria stipulates that candidates must "never have posed or exhibited (themselves) in dubious outfits or poses, partially or totally nude."

Photos published in Entrevue magazine last week included one of a bikini-clad Begue lying on a cross in a swimming pool and another of her licking what appeared to be yogurt or evaporated milk.

Begue is a native of France's Indian Ocean island of Reunion. She is to be replaced in international pageants by the first runner-up, Vahinerii Requillart, Miss New Caledonia.

If they stripped her of her title, that'd mean the sash goes too! Then she'd be really racy!

So she likes to lick condensed milk off of tree branches. Who doesn't?

i think they gave her a well deserved spanking and let her keep the crown..and yes, the pixs are not racy

Racy wouldn't be the word I would choose, but it might be considered thoughtless to do a 'crucification' type pose. It's rather a curious choice for a sexy photo I don't see what's 'sexy' about crucifiction.

The milk licking one, well, again, rather a weird choice but then I'm hardly the target audience for sexy photographs of women.

She is laying on a cross in that first picture. Slipped right by me.

I wonder if she has a good recipe for that?

Mr. Fancypants I will need you to post some more examples of these racey photos before I can form my opinion on this subject.
