From Miss Pak to the Sexy SA Girls of 2007

LAHORE: Mariah Moten, a dual nationality holder of Pakistan and the United States, who often manages to make space for herself in the international media every now and then with flamboyant visuals, sexy poses and flashes of skin, has done it again — this time by appearing in the “Sexy South Asian Girls of 2007” Calendar, featuring beauties from South Asia.

Starting right from her stint as Miss Pakistan in the Miss Bikini world Beauty Pageant held in China last year, she has been doing the rounds in the Pakistani, American, Indian and Chinese media as a highly controversial figure. Having won titles that are enough to set up a portfolio for her to move on with the pageant business — Miss Charity, Miss Tourism Queen International 2006 and Best in Media in the Miss bikini contest, Mariah Moten has created more than waves and has recently landed in a bigger project: she is a face in the DesiClub.com’s debut calendar as Miss April 2007.

This time, too, Mariah has made an attempt to create bold impressions all over. Don in a two-piece bikini, standing amidst splatters of water on bare skin and loose hair showing off her newly pierced navel, this April girl sure knows how to make a splash.

A University of Houston student, majoring in Hotel Management whose family hails from Karachi, Mariah Moten has all the support she needs: her friends and family and, of course, her fans. “It is such a tragedy people still have to create such a ruckus about the whole affair.”
