I thought maybe, just maybe, the whole pageant world had changed. Then I saw last night's episode, and there were the little girls doing the little flirty walks and the shimmying shoulder bit, and there we were, right back in the days of Jon Benet. I really don't know where those hairstyles come from...has anyone, even miss america contestants or country/western stars of the 70's, ever worn their hair in that tower-of-curls 'do? It's like a whole fantasy world....a very creepy, wtf kinda fantasy world. I don't know if you saw last night's episode, but one mom said "more flirting" -- to her probably 4 year old. I do like the more natural ones. The made up kids are just freaky. And their pictures really are all sorts of WRONG!

I pretty much expect that behavior from mothers with daughters in the pageants, but a boy. That was disturbing. His "outfit of choice" was and that "dance" he did was... well, there are really no words. Did anyone see the girl from last week... the little one that kept telling her parents to "SHUT UP"!! X to the little boy. And, yeah, little Miss "Shut Up" was there -- and LOST!

If you go to this page, there are tons more pictures. They are SO freaky. What parent would want their kids to look like that and think it actually looks good?

I thought it was interesting the way they portrayed the male judge. First, during the introductions they give both female judges' credentials, which include all sorts of pageant experience. Then they introduce him as "a local businessman" with a bit of a pause afterward -as if to let you form your own conclusion. Then, there were other shots of his face with a weird-ass half-grin while observing the girls on stage. He creeped me out. I think any man who goes to these things and is not a parent, family member or close friend of the family should be suspect. It's just not right.

Those kids were way creepy in all that makeup and hair and the amount of money those families are spending. EEK! The family with the three girls, the father was an E4 and mom obviously didn't work, they're probably on foodstamps with that many kids or very close. I bet she was spending all her husbands combat pay on pageants instead of doing something smart with it. And that poor little girl that didn't want to be up there. It's bad enough that those parents are doing the glitz (EEW!) pagents at all, but doing them when you obviously can't afford them is horrible. It was pretty funny that they gave everyone an award so the parents would (or at least seemed to) think their kid was talented and come back and pay to be in more pageants. The mom who was so proud that her kid worked so hard and got the princess title, um there were only two girls lady. It's a huge racket. And all the moms were huge. I think they're doing pagents to make themselves feel better.

The mom who was so proud that her kid worked so hard and got the princess title, um there were only two girls lady. It's a huge racket. This is what's truly been impressing me each time I've happened across this show. I mean, I've always known these people were twisted freakazoids inflicting major psychological damage on their children and perpetuating outdated, reductive cultural ideals, but it's only lately I've realized what gigantic suckers they are, too. The amount of money that goes to talent coaches, makeup artists, and wardrobe, plus pageant entrance fees, etc. etc. And the fact that these people pay every penny willingly, proudly...well, it kind of makes me want to start my own pageant. I mean, what's the overhead on renting some crappy meeting hall? Buy a few cheapass trophies and sashes, hire some whorey friends to judge..what's left? The Li'l Miss Sugarplum Princess Pageant is taking applications, kids! Those pictures up there remind me of the monologue by Quint, in Jaws: "When yeh look into them eyes...it don't seem to be livin'!"

Walk around in a circle, bop to your right then to your left, blow kisses, look at each of the judges, don't loose your flippers
