What do Megyn Kelly and Saudi Arabia's
King Abdulaziz Camel Festival have in common? It turns out, both the
morning-show host and the organizers of this hoofed-animal parade have a habit
of worrying about other beings' plastic-surgery
habits.
Officials with the King Abdulaziz
festival kicked out a dozen camels from a
camel beauty contest for receiving Botox
injections, according to a report published today (Jan. 23) in The
National, an Abu Dhabi, United Arab Emirates-based newspaper.
More than 30,000 camels and
300,000 human visitors showed up for the second annual King Abdulaziz Camel
Festival, which runs from Jan. 1to Feb. 1 this year, The National reported. And
the top spot of that horde of humped herbivores is worth a pretty penny: This
year's prize money totals $57 million, with $31.8 million set aside for awards
for "pageantry." [Why Do
Camels Have Humps?]
