People having a clear disatvantage, but still Winning.
I love these stories, do you have any examples?
Remember "World Idol"? One time only concept from 2004.
All the different Nations idol-winners, competed against each other. The favorite being the very talented and pretty Kelly Clarkson. The "least pretty" competitor was Kurt Nilsen.
