LONDON (Reuters) - No embarrassment will be spared when rock star Sting presents one of Britain's least-desired literary awards -- the Bad Se* in Fiction Award.

Now in its 11th year, the dubious honour is awarded by the Literary Review magazine for the most inept description of se*ual inter*ourse in a novel.

Among the climactic passages in the contest is one from former BBC radio executive Rod Liddle's "Too Beautiful for You".

"She came with the exhilarating whoops and pant-hoots of a troop of Rhesus monkeys, which was flattering, if alarming."

LONDON (Reuters) - An Indian investigative journalist has won little-coveted Bad Se* in Fiction Award for a turbo-charged account of a lovers' tryst that likens their amours to a speeding Bugatti.

Aniruddha Bahal, who posed as an arms dealer to expose an Indian military bribery scandal in 2001, flew to London to receive the prize from rock singer Sting before a 500-strong audience on Wednesday.

"She picks up a Bugatti's momentum. You want her more at a Volkswagen's steady trot.

"Squeeze the maximum mileage out of your gallon of gas. But she's eating up the road with all cylinders blazing."

I thought you were talking about the real Sting. You know, the former WCW Champion.

Nah, he's a Bible-thumper now. Wouldn't be caught anywhere near this sort of thing.

Why do you think we haven't seen him in WWE?
