Miss America: Realty Check

[SoCalGirl]

Jen, you must have Missouri confused with another state.

Miss Missouri is a Sigma Kappa from Penn.

[Tippiechick]

Yay! I love my Ole Miss girls (TN and AK), Mississippi, CA, Utah, Texas, Georgia, and Washington.

Let's hope they make the final 10.

Shiznit-- TN, AK, MS, UT ALL GONE!

Well, at least I have the rest of my faves.

[a.e.B.O.T.]

Ok, Miss Washington and Virginia are still in the game so yeah! Washington's "how bout them apples" was great as well as her swim wear walk, but she was one of two girls who didnt do the push up salute, and that could not look favorable on the judges side. Miss Virginia is just gorgeous. I am sad miss SC got the boot, but the only bases was the swim wear, and well, she had a big cellulite booty. I think its amusing how this Miss America is all about change, but the like porned up the swimsuit comp!

After watching Reality check, Im really curious about Miss Congeniality. Do they do that in this one, or is that just Miss USA? Well, if they do, Miss Utah, Washington and Alaska seem like they are the ones up for it.

Evening gown:

Miss Virginia was hot!
Miss Washington was a little to conservative and old looking.
Miss Iowa's face was like frozen, she kind of looks like Jessica Rabbit from the dress to the hair
Miss California chose a good dress, it was good
Miss Michigan's dress was AWFUL, especially with all that see-through crap. Kind of slutty
Miss Texas looked like an easter egg, the colors dont go well
Miss Wisconsin looked HOT! The dress made her look taller
Miss Georgia did not choose a dress that really stood out
Miss Indiana's gown was interesting, too bad the judges wont know she made it herself
Miss North Carolina's dress was nice, except that black waist band, it looked like a back brace

[GeekyPenguin]

Miss Wisconsin is an SAI.

[a.e.B.O.T.]

Talent

Miss Michigan- Somewhere over the rainbow: Interesting and stereotypical song. Good voice, but not professional. Here dress is funky, but not terrible. She goes for the dramatizing which I dont know how well that will fly. She is an opera singer, you can tell. Goes off pitch a couple times.

Miss California- The Jewel Song- She sings opera, it sounds great and professional, a little too over dramatic but appropriate for opera. Fun spunky and sophisticated, good job. Definitely high marks.

Miss Indiana- Vandertto (sp)- a hispanic song. strong voice, a lot of fun spunky with appropriate and very pretty dress. Kind of under-shadowed by previous performance as well as third singing talent in a row

Miss Virginia- Ballet. Caught holding her skirt up high on camera. Her dress looks like a cancan dancer but her baller is fun. She doesn't not stick her movements as solid as she should but the performance is interesting.

---Eliminated: Miss Iowa, she takes her batons and walks to the other side of the stage, but still gets some baton in when she is interviewed.

Commercial, four more girls to perform, one more eliminated

^^^Ok, I don't have it on, but now I don't need to -- how much do I love that I'm getting IRT updates from a fraternity guy?!? Keep it up, please, this is fascinating, my Mom and Grandmom used to sit on the phone and do the exact same thing. I LOVE IT!!!!

[a.e.B.O.T.]

Back to talent:

Miss Washington- Angles- good voice, but probably not as good as Miss Cali, but excellent song choice, powerful uplifting and relatable. Best stage presence so far. Good overall, but not the best so far.

Miss Texas- Jazz Ballet- Fun spunky music. Stands and jumps on her toes. Fun dancing but no where as strong as a dancer as Virginia. Kind of slow for a jazz ballet. Funny. It seems her only talent is she can stand on her toes and kick over her head.

Miss Wisconsin- Voilin- Good and spunky which seems to be a trend. Her dress is kind of bad, but she is showing some strong movement out of that violin, but her tone is not solid, kind of too screechy.

Miss North c got the boot leaving...

Miss Georgia- Ballet- Riverdance type music, very hoppy but regal. Her kicks were awful, but her movement was very smooth and gracful

[nittanyalum]

Your descriptions are killing me. "spunky which seems to be a trend" had me LOLing. So did "hoppy".

I'm pulling for WI based on this write-up, hope the screechy doesn't hurt her...

[a.e.B.O.T.]

Alright Question

What could you do to prove Miss A's Image?
Wisconsin- Love for America, Educating children, Community service, spread the messege

STD carriers are obligated to tell their fiancee
Michigan- Yes, its about respect to keep the marriage together

Celebrities promoting religion
Virginia- Free to voice opinions, they are human

Lack of Young Voters
Washington- Disconnect between young people and voters, encourage programs like rock the vote

How can people be famous without doing anything
California- Too much materialism... Miss A is trying to add class and character

Binge Drinking for kids
Texas- Bad example like Lohan dont get punished, you dont have to be like celebrities

What should America do to get on track
North Carolina- Bad media coverage of not positive celebrities. Miss A is a role model here to make a difference

Should Jamie-Lynn be fired
Miss Indiana- No she is a human, she made a mistake but that doesnt make her a bad person


WOW I had to type that fast. I think Miss INdiana stumbled a lot. Miss Washington had the best presence but answer was kind of weak. NC did not really have a original thought, very pageanty answer. California sounded smart and sophisticated, but i think Virginia won that round

[a.e.B.O.T.]

This is all way too close to call. I think NC Indiana and Michigan were are kind of lacking but i dont know what is going on in the judge's heads.

Still rooting for Virginia and Washington, but I don't think the latter will get it. Texas has gone strong

[preciousjeni]

This show seems to be going by so quickly! Awww! Good job, Michigan!

[a.e.B.O.T.]

OH HERE WE GO, who will it be

First, the final act of Lauren Nelson, Miss America 2007. She liked working with the children as a Goodwill Miracle Network ambassador. Blah Blah Blah, lets get to the final. She just keeps walking back and forth.

4th Runner up- North Carolina- Jessica Jacobs
3rd Runner up- Virgina- Hannah Something lol (SO HOT)
2nd Runner up- Washington- Elise Humamoto
1st Runner up- Indiana- Nicole Elizabeth Rash
Miss America 2008- Michigan- Kristen Higgle (sp)

TOTALLY didn't see that coming, i thought she sucked all the way. Total Barbie

[SWTXBelle]

Am I the only one going "WTH?" - didn't think her talent was very outstanding, and I HATE that tacky dress. Oh well . . .

[a.e.B.O.T.]

Funny, I love the girls who got 2nd 3rd and 4th, just not the girl who won... must of slept with the judges or something, lol, jk, but probs true

[AGDee]

Way to go Miss Michigan, even if I didn't think she was the most talented. I did like her dress, unlike the review from above. The Reality judges had a lot of positive things to say about her (how much they loved her) even though they didn't put her in their top 10.
