Probably hit the nail on the head.
The Hyndburn Honeys competition was started after a local girl had appeared in a Playboy competition, and contacted the paper asking for people to vote for her.
Currently lots of the 'lads mags' have similar competitions, where people send in photographs, and people text in their choice of winner.
The editor probably thought it was a good way to use up space, when the bonny baby/specs wearer of the year/fluffy pet competitions weren't running.
