OK, who's watching?

Either those camera angles weren't good, or some of the contestants weren't very photogenic.

Pssh, it's not beauty that counts! It's talent and integrity!

Wrong pageant, no talent competition here.

Those photos from the photo shoot were just horrible and cheesey.

I c ouldn't find one that really knocked me out. I wrote down 7 to begin with though.

I only came up with 3: Alabama, Florida and Georgia.

Wow, Dottie's 3 for 3!!!

Sounds to me that they are sweetening some of the audience reaction with the same tracks they've used on shows for years (particularly "Live at the Apollo"). I mean do people really cheer that enthusiastically for a shoe designer?

4 out of my 7 made it. BTW, doesn't Illinois have a little Kim Novack quality? Or was it a good camera angle?

morosco, you are so right.

I thought Steve Madden was in jail for tax evasion.

"I thought Steve Madden was in jail for tax evasion."

I think this is part of his sentence.

Uh oh! Did I just see a bikini wax gone bad??!?!

Miss Tennessee, 5 points deduction for interferring with Miss Florida's turn.

Is Carson botoxing his lips??

Illinois-Kim truck driver walk Novack.

What's with the music?

[DottieD'Luscia]

Posted: 4/21/06 at 9:53pm

Though 3 of my picks are in the top 15, none of these girls are doing it for me. And, no, I haven't gone straight all of a sudden!!

[Jane2]

Posted: 4/21/06 at 9:58pm

I also picked 3 out of the top 10. the only one I really like is D.C.

[DottieD'Luscia]

Posted: 4/21/06 at 9:59pm

My 3 are still there, but I kind of like South Carolina.

did she just say "the most impactful"?

[DottieD'Luscia]

Posted: 4/21/06 at 10:04pm

Bless her heart, she's coming up with new words.

[Jane2]

Posted: 4/21/06 at 10:05pm

That's one reason I love pageants-you can always learn from the hosts.

East Village Opera Ço? Oy they had a concert at my theatre several months ago. the audience consisted of pigs.

what is Miss Georgia doing in this?

[DottieD'Luscia]

Posted: 4/21/06 at 10:16pm

Jane2, you're right; what's with the music? I had to turn the sound off during the evening gown competition.

[Jane2]

Why do they pair that Nancy O Dell up with a midget? And is it really necessary for her to be wearing a black gown with a mile long train to host this sh*t?

[DottieD'Luscia]

Nancy O'Dell looks really tall next to Drew. I'm not liking the black leatherette gown.
