The annual Mr Ugly competition has, perhaps unsurprisingly, struggled to draw willing contestants since its inception.

Maison Sere was more than happy to put his name forward, however, and he’s now even happier after he dethroned the three-time champion to take the prize.

For three years just 10 people entered Mr Ugly, and for three years William Masvinu wiped the floor with the competition to be named the winner.
But this year in Harare, Zimbabwe, an additional 25 contestants threw their hats into the ring and it was the gap-toothed Sere’s turn to shine.

Organisers said that they were looking for a ‘natural ugliness’ this year.

AP reports that Mr Sere won in ‘controversial’ circumstances, though they fail to expand on that point.
