Jeremy Stanford takes a behind-the-scenes look at the first ever 'World's Most Beautiful Transsexual Pageant' in Las Vegas, meeting the six hopefuls who are attempting to realise their diva dreams.

Provocative profiles and interviews document the always intriguing, sometimes moving and often humorous journeys of the contestants.
