Nobel Committee Introduces Golden Boot, Miss Universe Awards

The Nobel Committee will give new awards. They will give a gold boot and a crown. The crown is called 'Nobel Miss Universe'. A press event happened in Oslo.

Someone asked if this breaks Alfred Nobel's rules. The king said the economics prize was not in the will either. It started in 1968 as a prize from the Swedish bank.

A reporter asked about people who could win. The chairman said one person is likely to win both prizes. He said some people won in different areas before.

Linus Pauling won two Nobel Prizes. He won in chemistry and for peace. Marie Curie won prizes for physics and chemistry.

The rules say they cannot tell the names. They will not say who might win. This is a secret until they give the awards.
