Israel's 'Fat and Beautiful' contest
Nov. 5 - Israel crowns a new Miss 'Fat and Beautiful' queen in their annual beauty pageant for plus-size women.
The competition now in its 15th year got underway in the southern Israeli city of Beersheba.
Twenty young plus sized women took to the catwalk to compete for the 'Fat and Beautiful' 2008 title.
The night's winner was one of the lightest participants, weighing a mere 80kg (176lbs).
Twenty two year old Khani Yirmiyahu from Beersheba received the crown from last year's winner, and maintained that each woman should love her body regardless of her size.
