20 year old Brazilian woman, Melanie Nunes Fronckowiak, and 27 year old French man, Saiba Bombote, are proud owners of the most beautiful bottoms in the world.

The competition for the most beautiful bottom in 2008 was hosted by one of the world's leading underwear brands, Sloggi.

In addition to showing their bottoms, the contestants had to impress the jury with their modelling qualities with an extraordinary choreography in the "Club Quartier Latin".

The finalists, 45 of them from 26 countries, were selected by people who visited the webiste sloggi.com and voted for the best bottoms. There were more than 11,200 pictures to choose from and more than 31.8 million voted in the search of the world's most beautiful bottom.

The winners received €15,000 in cash prize and a modelling contract for the next international sloggi campaign.
