美国选美大赛“光头美女”夺冠

  Miss Delaware Proves Bald Is Beautiful

  美国特拉华州选美大赛日前尘埃落定,“光头美人”卡伊拉•马特尔赢得冠军头衔。今年21岁的卡伊拉自幼患有斑秃(俗称鬼剃头),她的胜出无疑挑战了选美惯例。虽然没有满头的秀发,但卡伊拉并不自卑。在选美大赛的初始阶段,她曾一度成为争议人物。最终,她用自己的优雅消除了所有质疑。卡伊拉参加过五次选美比赛,前四次都失败了。在这次特拉华州小姐竞赛中,她凭借坚定的决心击败了其他15名参赛的美女。在选美比赛中,卡伊拉一直戴着假发,但现在她认为戴假发并没有多大的帮助。她表示以后将继续参加选美比赛,并打算参与美国小姐的角逐。

  Kayla Martell, 21, has been suffering from a disease her entire life. The illness, alopecia areate, has caused complete baldness.

  One pageant winner is using her crown to show you that beauty comes in different types of packages.

  Kayla Martell, 21, has been suffering from a disease her entire life. The illness, alopecia areate, has caused complete baldness.

  Martell hasn't let her hair loss hold her back from competing in beauty pageants, sometimes with a win and other times without one.

  This time, she chose a blond wig and beat out 15 other women, all with full heads of hair, to take home the Miss Delaware 2010 title in the Miss America Pageant.

  "Yes, this was my fifth time competing," Martell told "Fox & Friends" on Wednesday morning.

  "I competed with the wig this time. It was one of the best decisions I've ever made and, as you know, (talking to Gretchen Carlson, a former pageant winner) Miss America needs to be relatable and approachable, and I think that helped me to fit the needs of the job," Martell said.

  She later added, "I think every contestant just wants to be judged on their character and judged by the ability to perform the duties of the job of Miss America, and I hope that the judges can focus on what I have to offer for the program and what I can bring to the table for Miss America."

  Alopecia areata is an autoimmune disease that often beings in childhood. It affects more than 4.7 million people in the United States.

  There is currently no cure for this illness.

  Martell told Carlson, "I hope to show people that beauty comes in all different kinds of packages. No beauty Queen should fit into a box and look like a Barbie every time that they wake up."
