Yeah, I liked the pageant better when it was on a major network, and was just a NORMAL pageant (sans the reality TV components and add-ons that are supposed to make it "exciting.")

But I suppose that was before it stopped getting the ratings...

these poor girls are sooooo nervous :(

So far all of them have answered their questions at a mile a minute...

At least nobody ended up doing a Miss Teen (?) South Carolina and babbling on about maps and "the Iraq." Poor girl.

I'm lost - how many are there now? Are they going from EIGHT to the ???

honeychile 01-24-2009 10:49 PM
I think that Tennessee & Georgia are the only Greeks left.

LOL!

I guess my hope that Michigan wins just went down the tubes.

4th Runner Up - Miss Florida
3rd Runner Up - Miss New York
2nd Runner Up - Miss Iowa
1st Runner Up (you just know that she's buying PhotoShop tonight!) - Miss Georgia

Miss America - Miss Indiana!

KSUViolet06 01-24-2009 10:58 PM
I was really pulling for Georgia, she was my FAVE. But she ended up 1st runner up though, and that's good.

Was anyone else surprised to hear how little the scholarships are? I caught it at 3rd Runner Up - $15,000. She probably spent more on her clothes!

That's not even enough for a YEAR at some private schools.

I guess it's a hard sell - people have only so many charity dollars to spend. Who are you going to give them to: the USO, Juvenile Diabetes, or Miss America?

True, and most people figure that the Miss America contests are such that they have other scholarship opprtunities avaliable since they're so academically accomplished (or they have parents who can assist them with college tuition).
