Can't that be the talent portion?
It's from an episode of South Park. It's worth a watch.

:2razz:"It would be foolish to consider anyone other than Rima to represent the USA," radio host Mojo said. "The photos taken from our Web site are no more provocative than those on the Miss USA Web site."
Meh unless there are photos of her like topless or doing something nasty with the pole then let her keep the crown. I mean hell she is probably wearing more clothes dancing on the pole than she did during the pageant.
Agreed. It's ridiculous how uptight pageant folks can be about this stuff, especially considering that most women in pageants have done stuff like this. I have a friend who is a perennial contender in various pageants and she's constantly getting asked to do photo shoots that are a bit risque. Many of the other girls end up doing them and risk getting disqualified from the entire scene.
But I'm assuming they get payed well to do the Risque stuff right?

Maybe they should just not do that crap especially if they're competing in pageants. If you were going to police academy, would you smoke crack on your day off? Like it or not, virtuous living is a hallmark of pageant standards.
I'm by no means a pageant girl (see virtuous standards lol), but out of a personal sense of deceny (I said personal, not everyone's code) I turned down several offers to pose nude in college. The money would have been great, but my pride wasn't for sale.
I'm just responding to your point. The clothed pole dancing doesn't bother me. However, young women need to realize they can be beautiful and sexy without lowering themselves to act out like sluts in public.
To clarify, it's not posing nude or anything close to that. I mean things that a prudish person wouldn't want a 14 year old to look at, but nothing that you wouldn't see in a trendy fashion mag.
From what I saw, she didn't do anything worse that I have seen videos of Miley Cyrus (aka hannah montana) doing...
Miley Cyrus is trash.
Miley Cyrus is 17 years old.
She's a performer, who has been working hard nearly all her life.
Whether or not one thinks she's talented or likes her type of music is a matter of personal opinion.
What makes you think it's appropriate to call her "trash"?
Why is she "trash"? Because she's got a rich daddy?
What has she ever done to deserve to be called that?
There is a thread on Topix "I hate Miley Cyrus" It has about 25,000 posts on it saying how much they hate Miley Cyrus.
Most of the posters are very young but it has some of the grossest insults I have ever heard. Most of them think she is a slut.
They think she's a slut?
Is this based on anything, or are they just pulling it out of their asses?
She's a Disney creation, and she's been slaving away all her life.
She and her dad seem very close.
I doubt she's ever had much unsupervised time to be a slut, little money-machine that she is.
I mean, she's a franchise.
Many powerful people have multi-million dollar fortunes riding on this teenage girl and her image.
It's rather unrealistic to imagine they allow her much freedom or control over it, wouldn't you think?
She is a disney creation. It's not like she made it the hard way.
A lot of them talk about her slutty pole dancing.

wow....she's beautiful.I now await the honor killing for being in the swimsuit competition. LOL. :mrgreen:
Seriously, though, this shows that America frequently IS a place where you can be what you want to be, no matter where else you came from. :2usflag:
Not only that, but she is a fox too.
And I especially liked her in the talent contest, where she showed us how to.... :bomb: j/k.
Congratulations, Miss America.
Article is here.
no talent component? what?Not the same thing.
Miss USA is part of the Miss Universe pageant. I don't think there's a "talent" component, so if they say she's "well rounded" it means she has curves in all the right places.
A lot of them talk about her slutty pole dancing. She is a disney creation. It's not like she made it the hard way.
Another example of a teenage slut was Tanya Tucker when she arrived on the Country and Western scene.
It doesn't matter to me. I like my women a little on the trashy side.
you can't blame the corporations, you HAVE to blame the parents, if they are around.I'm not trying to go after anybody or put anybody on the spot.
I just seriously want to know why people would think this.
I've mentioned before that it bothers me the way Hollywood- or the media, or our society, or some combination- eats up young celebrities these days; especially female ones.
It seems they only exist anymore so we can have the pleasure of watching them self-destruct.
It's not because they're "sluttier".
They were actually far sluttier in the 70s and 80s.
Jennifer Jason Leigh, Phoebe Cates, Brooke Shields, Mariel Hemmingway: all of them were doing fully nude sex scenes while still minors (or, in the case of Shields, before she was even pubescent. Ever seen "Pretty Baby"?).
Yet they're all basically okay.
They were at the time, and they still are.
Why do we want to burn up adolescent celebrities for entertainment these days?
Why do they nearly all crash and burn?
I suspect it's a matter of drugs.
This is just a theory, but I think they start them on prescriptions very young.
"Too tired to keep up with your grueling 12 hour a day performance schedule? Here's a prescription for Adderall. Adderall keeping you awake? Here's a prescription sedative. Etc."
I mean, they're probably hooked on all that crap by the time they're ten or eleven, all these Disney-made stars.
There's so much money invested in them, so much riding on them.
They have to be made to keep going, one way or the other.
That's my theory.
It's nothing to do with "sluttiness" or sexual immorality.
The only immorality is that of mega-corporations making fortunes off these kids, and killing them- or at the very least destroying them- in the process.
