I read an article today called "where did they go?", it was about the beauty queens from the 60`s and what they have been doing after their successes as Misse`s.
Its an interesting article because you would think after having attended a miss contest and won it, then the rest should be easy.
Well for one of them (they had interviewed more of the contestants) the one who actually won the title Miss Norway that year, the life on wards had been filled with more tragedy then gain. She had just beaten some of the worlds most beautiful women in a harsh competition. (Don`t know if you know Julia Ege? Former Bond lady?)
She had married a man who she claimed had F***** her up mentally and lost both of her daughters and a grand son.
Both of her daughters were killed, one of her boyfriend, who stabbed her, and the other of poisoned alcohol.
And then as if that wasn`t enough her grandson also died.
So she had her share of life`s worst tragedies. I was sad when i read that article.
Now she is alone and single in her 60`s. Basically everything she has lived for is gone and she looks back on her funnier years as both a singer, a model and a winner of a big beauty contest.
