Transgender beauty Jenna Talackova finally takes on Miss Universe

Transgender model Jenna Talackova has finally took the stage for the internationally acclaimed Miss Universe pageant, and has become the first ever male to female transsexual to take part in the competition.  The event took place in the Bluma Appel Theatre in Toronto, Canada and Jenna was one of 63 women competing for the crown in front of a panel of 15 judges.

Taking part in the Bikini and Evening Gown rounds of the competition, Jenna, 23, who was born a man but had gender reassignment surgery four years ago, did not look out of place among the other contestants at the event.  After having surgery to become a woman at just 19 years of age, when she first decided to enter the Miss Universe pageant, Jenna was thrown out of the competition in March but was quickly backed by the world's media and LGBT campaign groups and was allowed to re-enter the competition.

Having already reached the finals of the Miss Vancouver pageant, it seemed hugely unfair for officials to step in at such a late stage in the game to ban Miss Talackova from further advancing in the pageant.  Officials claimed that it was because she lied on her application form that they decided to take action, and not because of her gender reassignment surgery.  But when Jenna wrote that she was born a woman, she did not feel that she was lying at all, although physically there is no denying that she was born male.

The only requirements of the competition is that you must be a woman, from Canada and be between the ages of 18 and 27.  The application form to enter the pageant mentions no rules regarding gender reassignment surgery.

Over 20,000 people signed a petition on Change.org to see Jenna reinstated in the pageant, and her case was even backed by celebrity lawyer Gloria Allred who has fought cases for Tiger Wood's ex lovers and even Nicole Brown Simpson's family during the O.J. Simpson trial.

Trump Organisation was forced to change it's policy in the end to ensure that the competition had "been modernized to ensure this type of issue does not occur again"

Making her case for the winner's crown, Jenna told the judges that the competition is not only about physical beauty, "It’s also a competition of health, fitness and charisma and those are all three things I possess."

What kind of bastard could do this to Bob?

A tiny, cute puppy who has been named 'Miracle Bob' has been rescued and nursed back to health by RSPCA workers after being discovered weighing less than a kilo in a vet's car park with one eye missing.

At just eight weeks of age, someone dumped Bob in a cardboard box in a vet's car park, severely malnourished and shivering from the cold and he was in such a poor state of health that it really is a miracle he is alive today.

Experts at the surgery in St Albans, Hertfordshire say that Bob was also suffering from painful skin blistering and had Canine Scabies when he was handed in.

RSPCA vets worked to ensure that Miracle Bob would survive and would have the love and care that his previous owner obviously couldn't offer.  They even cut holes in a blue woolly hat to make a tiny little doggy jumper to keep him warm through the night.

The little dog is thought to be a cross breed between a Chihuahua and a Miniature Yorkshire Terrier.

RSPCA Inspector Mel Fisher told the press "I cannot believe that someone would do this to such a poor innocent animal.  He is only around eight weeks old and is probably the tiniest puppy that I have known to be abandoned.  He really is that small and so I was very surprised he managed to survive after the ordeal he has been through.  He is a fighter and is pulling through and I just hope we can find the person responsible for dumping him."

After being handed in to the RSPCA center on April 27th this year, Bob has made a remarkable recovery and once he has built up his strength, is due to be re-homed.

Lady Gaga tweets her latest meaty treat

Above: Queen of pop Lady Gaga reveals her latest meat dress as she performs for her sell out Monster Ball Tour to a packed arena, as she hangs out with some rotting animal carcasses.

After causing controversy in 2010 (pictured below) for wearing a dress made of dried beef to the MTV Music Awards, Gaga has decided to tweet this photograph depicting her latest, wacky, edible outfit.

The photo was taken by Gaga's close friend and photographer Terry Richardson on the set of the Asian leg of her tour, and suggests that Gaga likens herself to a piece of meat hanging in a butcher.  Perhaps it is a metaphor for the way the media treats big stars such as Gaga, often putting them high on pedestals and then finally hanging them out to dry.

The hard working 26 year old entertainer has just completed three dates in Japan and is due to fly out to Taiwan for her next dates scheduled for May the 17th and 18th.

But it seems that Gaga has gone gaga for Tokyo, telling her followers on Twitter "Tokyo Monster, you can have me. Don't wanna be let go."
