Is it just me or do these girls look really creepy smiling all the damn time?

I feel like they're gonna eat my soul.

When will these silly, antiquated pageants would finally die?

Oh my gawd, "Miss Congeniality" wasn't kidding.

I'm always surprised women subject themselves to these silly things.

Sybarite: Yes, some cunning stunts there.

Oh yeah, and some stunning......ladies, too!

pute kisses like a man: the only problem with these contests, is what if you win?

I mean, I would be embarrassed to put that on a resume.

The prize is a sugar daddy. WTF are they gonna need a resume for?

Miss America can....jump rope? As her talent?

When do they vote on the most likely to be silicone enhanced award?

Hey look everybody! I'm an attention whore!

Apos: I understand that these flesh parades award academic scholarships-which,of course,explains their enduring appeal.

The shortage of vapid elementary school teachers needs this. Shut your mouth.

I remember I'd watch these things every year as a kid and then immediately lose most if my interest the second Wisconsin got eliminated.

Anyone want to guess how Wisconsin tends to do at beauty pageants? Here's a hint: not very well. TFA says Wisconsin won one of the prelim competitions. The way Wisconsin usually does, that's probably good to get past the first cut at most.

GIS for Miss Wisconsin

My former student is Miss Arizona so I'm getting a kick...

She looks much prettier in person without all that pageant on her.

I know Miss Ohio from my undergrad days. She was in the glee club that I played guitar for. While I tend to think of these pageants as superficial, she is one of the nicest and most intelligent people I've come across in my days on the Earth. Don't know that she'll win, but she certainly does not fit the stereotype of a vapid know-nothing.

nice, grats.

My friend Cassie was Mrs. Wisconsin in 2006. She got to 5th place in Mrs. USA.

That's 5th place? In the whole country?

That's for "Mrs" United States, not "Miss" America.

A few become actresses. Lee Meriwether comes to mind as probably the most successful one. A lot go into public relations work; I know two Miss America contestants who are public info/spokesperson types. I also seem to remember that at least two State lottery CEOs have pageant backgrounds. I am posting from my phone and too lazy to Google it to be sure.

Unobtanium: A few become actresses. Lee Meriwether comes to mind as probably the most successful one.

I think Vanessa Williams has been even more successful as an actress than Lee Meriwether Nevertheless, the latter's rump was outstanding in the Catwoman costume. She may not have exuded sultry sexuality the way Julie Newmar did, but damn, dat azz! I call your particular attention to when she's looking through the periscope aboard Penguin's submarine.

Even Bess Myerson and Mary Ann Mobley's acting careers rivalled Lee Meriwether's

I had the honor if interviewing Miss America 2001, Angela Perez Baraquio back in 2004. She was the first Asian and the first teacher to win, and she was an alumnus of my high school. I can honestly say that she was genuinely intelligent, warm and extremely friendly.

I enjoy the Miss America pageants much more that the other stuff out there; Miss USA/Miss Universe in particular, (although Brook Lee from Hawaii won in 1997 and I also met her and she was exactly like Baraquio) but my point is that Miss America looks just as much into the girls' academic and educational accomplishments and not only their looks. You have to be a well-put together human being to win Miss America, while you can be Miss USA and also be a total dodo and raging biatch as long as you are smoking hot.

Wait... jumping rope is now a talent? WTF....
