Yes! The balloon popper! Which when asked what her favorite part of the pageant was, she pouted, "When I popped the balloon." She also threw a temper
on stage when her mom told her to smile. I think she may have set the bar on the brat scale.

Is it me or do these little girls not appear to have any 'friends' at home? Maybe they just don't show it, but these little girls lives seem to be
centered on pleasing their mothers by practicing, tanning, and practicing.

I'm new to the show this season, and I don't feel like going through ALL the pages to figure this out, so maybe one of you will tell me...
The "Shut up! I SAID SHUT UP" that is in the title to this thread...where did that come from? |

This show is disgusting and it and all kiddie pageants should be banned! Do these people know that they are being portrayed as retards or are they so deep into
it that they think this is a positive portrayal? It's like a pageant version of Christopher Guest's "Best In Show".
Right now there is some gay version of Cowboy from Big Brother who obviously had a daughter to live vicariously though. |

I've only caught the last three episodes this season. (It took me a while to figure out which night it was on!
Anyway...the brat was an awesome episode. Boy, is she gonna be walking all over her mother the rest of her life. I love to point and laugh at all the cumbersome mothers standing there doing the "movements". Do they NOT realize what jackasses they look like? |

She was being advised about something in the pageant and didn't want to and ordered her parent to be quiet with those words. And lived to attend the pageant. Amazing. |

I watch these on saturday re-runs- just caught the red bull swilling mom. (Due to her accent) She said "Skylar loves being all dicked out" yeah she
said that!
One of the biggest stresses of having toddlers is trying to get them to behave a certain way and look a certain way at a certain time- such as for family portraits- what a fucking nightmare that was!!- you KNOW they can be cute and charming and loveable but in a pressure situtation you CANNOT force that out at a particular time.... Why put yourself thru this? The 2's and 3's need their naps they don't get it, they throw tantrums-- the kid is in a shitty mood all week and you become a wreck. They are "off" on stage, they get snot on their dress, the nail comes off. I would be 800 pounds too if this was my life. |

I hear ya, EMP!
Was walking past Sears several years ago and this little kid was screaming and crying in the portrait studio with his mother yelling "Shut up and smile, Kyle!" That didn't exactly make poor Kyle burst into smiles and giggles. I can only imagine these mothers trying to get their daughters to consistently walk in the right spot, smile, do some ridiculous dance thing, and wiggly their hips! |

Anyway, it doesn't seem that ANY of these parents have parenting skills, so the fact that they allowed the child to still go to the pageant, even after acting that way isn't a surprise at all. Sad world we live in. In my day, I not only wouldn't have been allowed to participate after that, but I also wouldn't have been able to sit down for a week. |

I just watched one and I am pissed off that the top title went to a girl who had a way way way too dark fake tan- she was blonde, the mom had the place spray
her 4 times and she had the fakest fake teeth, she kept playing with them in her mouth. The tan and the teeth looked ridiculously fake and then for her talent
she did a striptease! This was the overall winner.

I teach high school, and I have been in conferences where a kid has hit the parent, cursed the parent, and just totally controlled the parent. I can now see
where that starts.
My favorite: Parent: He sleeps in class because he is up all night on the computer. He will not shut it off. Me: Unplug it. Parent: Oh no, he would get angry. |

I kinda liked Maygun, Mehghan, the stripper girl. She was LAUGHING at the judges, especially "the boy judge!" She won Ulimate Diamond Super Queen for
her stripper dance. She was funny as hell.

I had a kid (first grader) shake his fist at his mother and they just tried to bargain with him.

I teach preschool and see all kinds of that shit. I have one family whose 7-year-old is out of control (he's a sibling of one of the preschoolers)...he
screams at his parents, hits them, throws kicking, screaming tantrums when he can't watch TV, and all they ever do is reason with him and discuss. There
are no real consequences. If he doesn't like what they have for dinner, they fix him something else. If he hits his sibling, they have a big family
meeting about it and usually decide that he just needs more one-on-one time with them, at the expense of the sibling. He doesn't like anything but toys
and TV, but he never seems to lose either of these things as a consequence of his behavior. They are raising a brat.
But back on topic, the Sprinkle sisters (and I grew up with a family with that last name...they were all great people) were adorable and seemed pretty well adjusted. The little brown haired Amy Winehouse-wannabe was 10X cuter without her ill-fitting flippers in place...she kept sucking at her teeth and you could tell she was uncomfortable with them, plus they just looked horrible. Did mama mail-order that shit?? 'Cause any reputable dentist who thought that fit properly needs to lose his license. What a train wreck they were, spending a small fortune that they clearly didn't have on that pageant, and then flipping out because she didn't win anything. And the other little girl (Sarah? With the red hair.) was also a lot cuter in her regular hair and clothing. I think the glitz pageants are gross. I hate seeing these little JonBenets in fake teeth, fake hair, spray tans, make-up, and stripper outfits. I'd like to see a plain, cute kid pageant with no enhancements allowed, and no "cupcake" dresses. Why not?? |

Guess I'm the only one watching this tonight.One mother spending over $7000 to go to have her daughter in a kid's pageant ! This is beyond ridiculous.
I do love the "turd in a punch bowl " comment though.

I TiVoed so I could watch South Park, which hilariously parodied T&T!
I actually petition this thread to get retitled: Toddlers and Tiaras...Who left the turd in the punch bowl? Who's with me? That mom was bat-shit crazy and most definitely on some kind of meds herself. Why do half these pageant kids have ADHD? |
