Brazilian judges have delivered their verdict and named the owner of the country's best buttocks.

Carine Felizardo scooped the $2,500 top bot spot in the annual Miss BumBum competition, so named because that is what Brazilians like to refer to their backsides as.


"I am very proud of my bumbum, proud to represent the Brazilian woman."

Of the 27 luscious, ripe bottoms fighting it out to be crowned the best backside in the country, 15 finalists competed in the final heat on Friday.
