Mimosa is looking for Thai transvestites and transsexuals new to beauty pageants, banning winners or second-place finishers in the established Miss Tiffany and Alcazar Beauties pageants from participating. Contestants must be Thai men 18-30 years of age, unsigned to any modeling or sponsorship contract, drug-free and good English speakers.

The winner of the pageant will take home 200,000 baht in cash and prizes, Jirachot said. He said the motivation to form yet another transgender pageant came from a seemingly insatiable appetite for ladyboys in Pattaya’s tourist market.
