The 42 European faces of Miss World
Miss World to represent all 42 Eurovision countries
 Moscow, RUSSIA - Russian Miss World winner Ksenia Sukhinova will represent 42 countries at the Eurovision contest in Moscow. It will be the first time in history that one person will represent all the participating countries.
A creative team made up of Russia’s best make-up artists, image-makers and hairstylists have created 42 looks for the Siberian beauty queen (the Russion look on the right).
By tradition, the country which hosts the Eurovision has to represent all the participants of the annual contest taking part in it. As a result, Matryoshka dolls usually stand for Russia, while the baguette is often used as the symbol of France.
The Russian organizers of the Eurovision Song Contest decided to put an end to clichés this year and asked the world’s most beautiful woman, 21-year-old Sukhinova, to become the face of the popular music contest.
