FIU student has "best legs"

Audra Adeoye, 22, a senior at Florida International University studying biology, was named South Florida winner of the "Legs of Goddess" contest held Aug. 5 as part of the events of a Mariah Carey concert at AmericanAirlines Arena.

"It's a little hard to believe because I have always thought of my legs as a little too thin," Adeoye said. "In fact, I decided to enter the contest on a whim. I figured if it's legs they were looking for, then I'll give them every inch of my 41-inch legs."

Adeoye's prize was VIP tickets to Carey's Adventures of Mimi World Tour concert and a meeting with the superstar after the show. "Meeting Carey was an absolute honor and being photographed together for the Venus Legs of Goddess contest was surreal," Adeoye said.

She and winners in other cities will advance to the final round of Gillette Venus' "Celebrity Legs of a Goddess" on Aug. 23 at Madison Square Garden in New York City for a try at $25,000.
