A Brazilian truck driver has won Sao Paulo's annual "Most Handsome Elderly Man" contest.

Aureo do Nascimento beat 21 other contestants aged 62 to 94 at the Thursday pageant sponsored by the State Health Department.

The 63-year-old Nascimento said the pageant helps older men "improve their self-esteem and overcome the prejudices others feel toward the elderly."

Awards also were handed out for Mister Elegance, Mister Smiles and Mister Shyness by a jury of five women.(+++)
