The annual beauty pageant of the Wodaabe tribe, West African nomads from Niger, which revolves around dance contests to identify the most attractive young men of the tribe. Every September the tribe, along with Toureg spectators, gather in the town in Ingall in Niger to celebrate their beauty. Women do the judging, and reward the winners with a night of love. A quite amazing spectacle for the few visitors who manage to witness it each year.
