Miss Bumbum beauty pageant sparks outrage as contestants pose like Jesus for Last Supper painting with their butts displayed

Brazil's Miss Bumbum beauty pageant has sparked controversy after hopefuls posed for a raunchy portrayal of iconic religious painting The Last Supper.
The photo shows eight hopefuls in the country's popular 'rear of the year' contest portraying Christ and his disciplines - with the 'sexiest' girl posing as Jesus.

Religious leaders branded the remake of the Da Vinci masterpiece "deeply disrespectful" and even Brazil's religious intolerance commission condemned the picture.

Even one of the women involved said she regretted posing for the shot and said she had "asked forgiveness from God for a great sin".

Now in its sixth year, Miss Bumbum is one of Brazil's most hotly-disputed beauty contests with winners becoming overnight celebrities and often going on to earn millions and modelling contracts and endorsements.
