Forget those pencil-thin model types. Italy has chosen a full-figured woman as new beauty queen, proud of her ample body weighing in at a hefty 170kg.
Angela Scognamiglio said she was "very moved" when she was named Saturday night as the new "Miss Chubby" at the complex-free contest held in the Tuscany village of Forcoli, near the city of Pisa.
"I am very moved, I feel as if I've won the lottery," the 33-year-old from Naples said after beating out 30 other contestants for the title.

What, do they like fatties there?
In Mauritania fat is traditionally considered desirable. That hopefully is changing but there still reports of disgusting practices where young girls are forced to eat unholy amounts in order to fatten them up.

Shed be very cute if she lost about 150 lbs. She weighs 375lbs, so I think she needs to lose more than 150lbs, but it is a start.

May be a bad translation. I wonder what the original Italian word was.
