Miss Ghana faces 'fake breast' snag

Warsaw, Poland, Sept. 30 (GHP) -- Lack of breast implants may be the reason Miss Ghana 2005 is not favoured to win the Miss World 2006 title here today.

Lamisi Mbillah who represents Ghana in the Miss World pageant is one of six beauties with the worst odds to win the crown.

"We've taken some slack for promoting Miss Ghana among the bottom of the barrel," said Payton O'Brien, Gambling911.com's resident Entertainment Reporter.

"Interestingly enough her odds have been pushed up to +12000 (or US$12,000 paid out on a $100 bet)."

After Ghana defeated USA in the World Cup this past summer, some felt there was a little bit of shading going on with oddsmakers catering to the US market.

"All of these girls are beautiful but there is common denominator among the lower tier that really stands out, or shall we say doesn't stand out," O'Brien said. "None of them seem to have breast implants compared to say the top favorites."

With just over 100 women vying for the crown for Miss World there will be stand out beauties such as Miss Australia who pays out nearly US$500 for every US$100 bet or the perennial favorite, Miss Venezuela who also pays out US$500 for every US$100 bet. Another big favorite is Miss India at +800 odds (US$800 payout on a US$100 bet).

But alas when we are talking about over 100 women competing in a beauty contest these otherwise attractive ladies quickly learn there could be others out there even more sensational. As always there will be the bottom of the barrel. In this case, we wouldn't mind taking bottom of the barrel.

While they certainly aren't dogs in the literal sense, from a bettors perspective, there are a choice few who oddsmakers believe can't stand a chance in this race. These are girls who - if somehow they pull off a win - would reward gamblers with some big time bucks.

So who are the girls with the longest shot of winning this competition?

Miss Zambia would pay out US$24,000 on a $100 bet as does Miss St. Lucia, Miss Liberia, Miss Latvia and Miss Georgia.
