AH, Those Beautiful Convicts.

"B" rated prison movies popular in the last decade, have nothing on a prison in Peru where female inmates engage in a Beauty Pageant.

LIMA, Peru (Sept. 29) - On a red-carpeted catwalk, an international line of elegantly dressed beauty contestants - all doing time for drug running - strutted into the night before an audience of Peruvian dignitaries.

''The objective is to promote re-socialization among the inmates and create space for recreation and companionship to help them raise self-esteem and get rid of stress,'' prison spokeswoman Maritza Otiniano told The Associated Press. ''At first many of them were a bit timid and didn't want to present themselves, but now more and more girls have signed up.''
