A blonde model who shot to fame after she won a contest for Brazil's best bum has had surgery to become a virgin again so she can enjoy the 'first time' with someone special.

Indianara Carvalho, 22, who won the Miss Bumbum competition in November, said: "For those who have been asking, I'm going to continue being a virgin until I find someone who is worth it."

The model revealed she underwent vaginoplasty before her jet-setting career posing as Brazil's rear of the year took off.

She said: "I wanted to undergo surgery to reconstruct my virginity before I have new photographs done.

"I wouldn't feel good about appearing naked if I wasn't exactly as I came into the world.

"I think I also want to give a bit of respect and new concept to the Miss Bumbum title by being a virgin."

Ms Carvalho, from Santa Catarina state, won around £1,500 in prize money and £20,000 in modelling contracts - but is set to earn hundreds of thousands in appearances and endorsements.

The 2014 contest was marred by scandal when a contestant was disqualified for allegedly rigging the votes.

Livia Santos, who was a firm favourite, lost out when accusations flew that she'd had her husband hire people to vote for her.

Competition is fierce, and most of the 27 contestants have had cosmetic surgery, including Andressa Urach, 27, who was a runner up.

But earlier this month, the buxom beauty was hospitalised after suffering an infection following an operation to remove a gel doctors injected into her thighs to make them bigger.

The product that has caused her health problems, hydrogel, is allowed in Brazil in small doses where it is used to increase the size of women's thighs and buttocks.

Ms Urach, who is making a slow recovery, is said to have had twice the recommended amount of the jelly-like material injected into her legs.
