I have followed Miss USA and Miss America for awhile and surprisingly enough, the girls who do the best at it (and end up Miss "City" or Miss State USA) are not typically girls who have been doing pageants since birth. Some of the girls didn't even start until they competed in a local Teen USA at the high school level.
That's why I find it so funny that so many of these moms want their girls to be Miss USA and Miss America. Those pageants are MUCH different from Little Miss Treasured Dollz and doing pageants since birth doesn't = growing up and winning a huge national pageant.

From what I could garner from a show (that just a few episodes) was about a SC Pageant coach, called "King of the Crown". One episode featured the infamous Miss Teen SC, Kaitlin Upton, trying to redeem herself and prove that she wasn't um, less than intelligent - you have to watch it; the scene where she is practicing for the interview is priceless.
Anyway, one of his students was competing in a "glitz" pageant, the type of pageant which most of the T&T episodes feature. He had never been to a glitz pageant. Once at the pageant, he started freaking out when he saw some of the "routines" the contestants (the random flailing) were doing during "outfit of choice" and/or talent part, or whatever they called it.
I wish I could find full episodes. They were well worth the time purely for the snark value.
