A STUDENT from Gosforth in Newcastle is vying to become the next Miss Student UK and showing she has brains as well as beauty.
The competition is branded as an alternative to the stereotypical beauty pageant. Contenders must prove they are more than just a pretty face.
And now 21-year-old Jessica Waugh, from Rectory Terrace in Gosforth, Newcastle, is trying to show she has what it takes.
Last night Jessica said: “I kind of got involved for a dare and a bit of a laugh really. But the competition is supposed to be like the opposite to a beauty pageant – they say you need more than just a pretty face.
“I thought it would be like an investigation to see if that’s true.
“I want to prove that women should be judged on their academic achievements and that it’s not just a beauty pageant.”
