Pour 15 ans, prison gardes en Columbia laisser des filles détenus ont a beauté spectacle. En honneur de Holy Virgin, détenus ont concerts et spectacles. The difference between this beauty pageant and regular beauty pageants is that the contestants here have been accused of doing drugs, a robbery, or murder. This is one day where the girls can forget that they are in prison, and forget all the sadness of the fact that they are in jail. Aspects of the pageants are changed, such as the confetti is made out of ripped up magazines, but the girls still have a lot of fun!
