Playboy model Julia Orayen disrupts Mexican presidential debate

Mexico's electoral authority apologised to voters yesterday after a televised presidential debate was upstaged by a former Playboy model and her revealing outfit.

Clad in a tight-fitting white dress with a plunging neckline, television assistant Julia Orayen walked in front of the camera to hand out cards to the four candidates, and created an immediate stir on social media.

The Mexican newspaper Excelsior declared her the online winner of the debate.
