Toddlers and Tiaras was on last night:

What's with the family who has 3 girls doing pageants? And they flat out admit that they can't really afford to do them. Seriously?

And the single mom who lives with HER MOM (she has the little 2 year old)? Grandma said that she could either help her daughter with rent OR she could help with pageants (and have daughter and granddaughter move in). So daughter chose to move in with mom. Wow.

Last night was the first time I watched "Little Miss Perfect". I watched the 2 episodes back to back and was a little confused - are the pagents always in Charlotte? And it looked like Jordan and Emily (9pm rerun) were in the same pagent as Amber and Sabrina (10pm new show)?

And whats with the chat board where you get to diss the other girls in the pagents? Thats healthy.

No, in the previous episodes the pageant was in FL. I don't know if they moved it or it's just another branch.

Emily has been in another tv show about pageants (was it original Toddlers and Tiara's) but when she was a little younger. I remember the mom and the grandma.

I felt bad for Amber cause the mom and sisters kept talking about how she just wasn't good enough and the 2 sisters were better, yada yada yada.

Maggie, ususally the pagents on LMP are in Florida...or at least there were three that were. I didn't think either girl was great last night, so I was actually glad neither one won.

So excited that the new season of T&T starts tomorrow night!!!
I bet TLC is releasing this season early since J&K is on hiatus.

I saw the previews for this with my husband. He just turned, looked at me and said, "What the f*ck is wrong with parents, really?"

I've not ever seen the show, but it looks like a train wreck.

Why would a two week old compete in a pageant? He has no talent and no personality! On top of it all, he's not even cute! I can't stand when babies are born with a mini "adult" nose!

Also, spending $65,0000 on a little girl to be in pageants?! I've never had a dress that cost over $300! Let alone $3,600! She better pray she can win back all that money she's spending!
ETA: That girl won pretty much everything, Mommy knows best.

The woman entering her NEWBORN in a pageant really bothered me.

Late in the game on this (just caught up with my DVR last night):

*A 2 week old baby? Seriously? I love how the judge was like "I'm looking for a contestant with lots of personality and energy." What kind of personality and energy does a 2 week old baby have? Um, none.

*I felt so badly for the little blonde girl who had to take all of those photos while she was really sick. Boo.

*I thought it was a little unfair that Mom kept going on and on about how the one twin was so much better at pageants.

*I get the feeling that one of those twins doesn't really like pageants at all, but MOM wants BOTH of them to be in it.

*I was so glad that Pageant Dad didn't let that other twin finish the pageant. I mean, if your kid is behaving like that, it is obvious that they just don't want to do it.

*I did think it was cute that the one twin was so happy just to get a small crown and a runner-up award. So many of these kids are only happy when they get the highest title.

I wanted to smack the bratty twin (the one the father took out) at the end. Her sister was SO happy to get the Director's Choice award, and the evil sister kept going on about how "she won." Shuuuuuuut up!

Me too! And I wanted to punch the mother for showing obvious favoritism to one child over the other.

Has anyone else noticed how all of the mothers of these children are fat heffers.....they are all dressed in K-Mart garb while their kids are wearing 4500 dresses....and the kids are wearing more make-up then they are. What's up with that? I guess this is the only means of these women building their self esteem. I would like to have a few minutes alone with the mother who kept berating the one twin while singing the praises of the other....talk about making them hate each other as they get older....what a moron!

I wanted to rescue that poor child from that horse faced mother!! Some of the comments she made were appalling -

Breeanna looks like me (meaning she's the pretty one - BAHAHAHA!) Shealynn (sp???) is skinny and her nose is too big. ALL SAID IN FRONT OF THE GIRLS!!

Then, berating her for ripping her dress, making the poor child burst out in tears, and then "forgetting" to repair it before the pageant??? She is like an evil character in a Disney movie!

Then, that sweet girl offering balloons that she'd won to the other girls, and then in the interview with her "EVIL TWIN", the girl says how proud of herself she is, and the other just keeps saying how her win was higher, 2nd runner up as opposed to 3rd, and when the sweet girl goes, "Uhuh!!" the evil twin says, "Yea so, Mommy told me!!" See? It's like a plot in a scary fairy tale!

Hopefully, the "Ugly Duckling" will grow up to be a swan and will hold it over the Evil mother and twin!!

*I do have to ask, how is your kid old enough to do a pageant when you have to do the routine with them in the audience so they can remember it?

* I think the 2 little girl's moms (the ones that were like 4 or 5 yrs old) were pretty normal, as opposed to previous week's moms. They weren't too heinous, pushy, critical, etc. Lots of "good job!" and "she did really well!" The one mom was just like "She's 4, she doesn't know she messed up, and I'm not going to tell her."

*I like that the little girl (Tyler) didn't KNOW she hadn't gotten the big title because her mom didn't make a huge deal about it.

*I think a puppy is a weird prize for a pageant. I mean, what if the parent doesn't WANT the kid to win it (because dogs are a big responsibility)?

*I think that older little girl was a bit of a brat. It's a little scary that she says (at 10 years old) "I love being perfect." It's really sad to see a kid that age that's not happy with anything other than the biggest title.
