"Legs of a goddess" title to Lauren Jaramillo
Venus, a recognized authority on women's legs, along with superstar Mariah Carey,
today named Lauren Jaramillo, 21, of Belleville, N.J. the national winner of the
fourth annual Venus "Legs of a Goddess" contest. Ms. Jaramillo received the coveted
title after defeating thousands of other women across the country. Contestants vied
for the honor and a $25,000 grand prize at select locations this summer in conjunction
with Ms. Carey's sold-out concert tour, The Adventures of Mimi: The Voice, The Hits,
The Tour.
Contestants were asked to strut their stuff on a catwalk and "strike a
pose" for judges who were looking for a woman with toned, shapely legs who
exuded a confident, vibrant personality. "General Hospital" leading lady
and "Dancing with the Stars" season one winner, Kelly Monaco, served as
celebrity guest judge for the contest. When notified that she had won, Ms.
Jaramillo said, "I can't believe Venus chose me as the national 'Legs of a
Goddess' winner. This is so exciting!" Ms. Jaramillo currently works at a
fitness club in her area and has a passion for movie trivia and fashion. She
hopes to someday pursue a career in fashion merchandising.
"This contest is a great way to bring the Venus brand to life," said
Kara Salzillo, External Relations Manager, Venus. "Over the years, we've
seen some impressive legs - and our national winners have not only had
beautiful legs, but also a great sense of self. It's wonderful to be able
to reward that distinctive combination of beauty and spirit."
Mariah Carey, who captured three Grammy Awards for her celebrated
album The Emancipation of Mimi, which has sold over 10 million copies
worldwide, kicked off the nationwide Venus "Legs of a Goddess" contest on
May 30 when she was immortalized with a 16-foot high likeness of her
perfect legs. Ms. Carey received the title of first ever "Venus Celebrity
Legs of a Goddess" and unveiled the replica during a ceremony at New York's
legendary Radio City Music Hall, home to some of the most famous legs in
the world.
