Kim Kardashian may have broken the internet with her famous derriere but she's got some competition in Brazil.
The
27 women competing to be win the title of best bottom in Brazil got
into the Olympic spirit yesterday by running in their own 100-metre
sprint - in nothing but skimpy bikinis.
Hopefuls
in the annual Miss Bumbum contest, Brazil's most popular beauty
pageant, brought traffic to a standstill as they ran down the famous
Avenida Paulista, the main street of the country's biggest city Sao
Paulo.

The
raunchy race marked the start of the seventh year of the competition,
in which the women, each representing a Brazilian state, are whittled
down to 15 who then battle it out in a live final.
Each
of the entrants wore nothing more than a skimpy orange bikini and a
sash with the name of the state they their representing emblazoned on
it.
The Rio
2016 Olympic Games may have been just around the corner but the women
seemed sure to make sure all eyes were on them as they posed for
photos.

The traffic stopping 27 finalists marched through the streets in trainers so as best to parade their enviable figures.
In
a country obsessed with the female backside, winners of the
hotly-disputed contest become overnight celebrities and often go on to
earn millions in modelling contracts and endorsements.
The
run is the second public outing for the 27 women, who last week posed
for photos together on a Sao Paulo beach holding an Olympic flame.

The
contestants will now spend the next three months doing whatever they
can to win enough telephone votes from the public to win them a place in
the grande final on November 9.
This
year a mother and daughter will compete in the competition for the
first time, Bruna Ferraz, 35, representing the state of Rondonia, and
Eduardo Morais, 19, for neighbouring northern state Roraima.

Ana
Paula Saad, 38, representative of Sao Paulo, said: 'Running down the
busiest street in Sao Paulo in just a bikini is the least I'm willing to
do to get to the finals. I hope I stood out from the rest, and that
more people in my home city will vote for me.'
Dani Omeles, 27, who is competing for the state of Amazonas, said she had been preparing for the race for the last week.
She
said: 'I got up at 5am this morning to do some stretches, then spend
the rest of the time putting my make-up on. This means everything to me.
I know I've got the best bottom in Brazil, now it's up to me to make
everyone else know about it.'
