First Druze In Israel's Arab Beauty Pageant
[Media Source*]
(Ynet News) This year's contest, which will be held at the Haifa Auditorium and is sponsored by the Arabic weekly Kul al-Arab, will feature 18-year-old Lada Abu-Salach, the first-ever Druze to participate in the event.
Abu-Salach, who hails from Majdel Shams in the north, is a high school student who enjoys belly dancing and manages a restaurant in her spare time.
Some of the religious figures in the Druze community are not particularlyy excited by Abu-Salach's entry. First prize in this competition receives $10,000 USD, and if this competition is won by a Druze, it will be a first in Israeli history. End.
