“I’ve had girls win in a $200 dress and a $2,000 dress”
Me- *Those are both expensive*
Amy Kemp Right like what about a $20 dress?
Jay hahahaha me
Seriously. I'd be consignment shopping so fast... Sounds like they already put a lot of money into just getting ready though. If they had an awkward, anxiety, broke girl pageant, I'd probably do pretty well.
I won 35 bucks from a scratch ticket. In a 2$ adidas dress from a thrift shop. NOW WHO LOOKS STUPID
My dress $20 from h&m 😂
Whenever I see or hear the word Pageant, My mind goes straight to *"Toddlers and tiaras"*
@Minah K yeee
Same
For some reason it reminds me of pigeons 😂😂😂
@@morgue8337 wot
I..I have no words..Your profile pic..Is just...Beautiful...Do you have an Instagram..? Cuz Damn..You're beautiful..

the part about walking in heels
"this is a skill I'm suppose to know as a woman. and im embarrassed that i dont" I'm a man, and that honestly broke my heart
Learning to walk in heels is a steep curve. And painful. But women are expected to know how to wear them. It’s hard to go to dressy events and wear something that’s not heels and still look mature
I believe you can wear anything you want, men can wear pink, crossdress, women can wear whatever they want, heck I can't last in heels for one minute. It's 2020, we all need to wake up, LGBTQ, Straights, People of color, white people, disabled people, abused people, anyone should be treated the same, and instead of sending death threaths we can try to educate those who don't agree. We are all powerful, and we shall all take pride and stand, not just as people, but as a community. We. Are. The. People. Of. Earth. :D
Considering how many different types of heels exist, I personnally think that every woman who has normally shaped heels can find a shape that she likes. Not being able to walk in really high heels is no problem when you realise that there are also kitten heels and intermediate heels.
@@trekadouble757 Wasn't exactly my point there, but oh well
Me too man... That's so squaring and awkward. Society makes weird costumes to work lol
“who do you pronounce your college?”
-“dartmouth”
literal hardest flex
I really want to see a “I trained like a CIA agent for 60 days”
this would be interesting to see
Lucy Hughes The CIA wouldn’t let you do that since it’s very serious and secretive
@@lilirodriguez8851 Well technically Disney™ didn't let her train with them either because of their strict guidelines and all but she found a way around that... I think it'd be interesting to see what she does and how she pulls it off givin the talent she has in figuring out ways to get around things like that to show the viewers a type of guideline that the CIA would have to follow to get in, it wouldn't be revealing their secrets so much to train to be one because many people train to be one and never make it so I think that would be ok for her to do!🤷
this aged well
YAS queen
Ok. Everyone who has left Buzzfeed has made much MUCH MUCH better content! So proud of y'all!
I don't appreciate y'all painting Trump in a bad light like Buzzfeed though. You have the right to your opinion of course but you're better than that. Come on.
Baby Blue, well I'm glad you agree with some of what he's doing as President! And to be honest I don't think he's made the best moral decisions in the past. He actually used to be a Democrat too! He's changed a lot! But in reality all he needs to do for America is he a good President. We didn't elect a pastor. We elected our leader. An nd he's doing a marvellous job! But let's just take a moment to look at the type of person you are. You call our president extremely mean names, and most of what you called him are just not true! You most likely got that information from a fake news source. So you are an immature name caller, a person who doesn't check their facts and gets mislead, and you don't seem to think for yourself. You just do what everyone else is doing and be living how terrible he is. You might be an amazing leader too, but as a person you aren't the best right now.
I was ab to ask if she was from buzzfeed lol
@@dirtschneider7574 I'm sorry, how is he a racist jerk? Please give me some examples of things he's said which are racist?
@@cmonbruh6769 are you joking??
Thank you for doing this. I started doing pageants at age 7 and retired at 25. I regret nothing. Pageants taught me discipline, community engagement, public speaking, and how to represent myself in a positive way.
Yes im a dance teacher and a costume designer so im familiar with them 🙂☝️ I even got to judge talent in a little recreational paegent near my studio.
I think they're awesome when you let the kids make the artistic choices 👏👏😭 sure there was the usual singing and dancing but
One of my favorite acts was a kid who brought her dog and showed us all of the tricks she trained him to do. It was cute and so funny.
There was also a little girl who did stand up 😂💀🤷♂️ I wasn't ready for that lol. You could always tell when the child had thought of their talent act vs. When an adult did lol
I didn’t know she GRADUATED from DARTMOUTH!!!! Why is no one talking about this
Julia Kelly lolll they don’t know how to pronounce ir
IKR and when she asked the pronunciation...
@@joycee7956I know right, like..
Steve: “nothing can even jiggle.”
Me: *well fu-*
Hwar Kim LMFAOO
Ikr!
😂ikr. I'm out already.
Dang
I want to like your comment but currently it has 666 like and I don't want to ruin it 😂😂
As a little girl (12) who has done numerous pageants since i was 6, I do think pageants need to be more positive with body positivity and need to ask better questions instead of “what’s some Insecurities you have” they should ask “what defines beauty for you?” Just my opinion
Thanks for all the likes!
thx@Beth Wilson
Psn piresfury1 tf is wrong with you reported
@@sia1956 what did he say???
Coco 1234 one of the comments said that “wow I would wanna see u in a pageant 👌👈” and it was rlly inappropriate
@@gracievena9266 That is absolutely sick
Buzz feed was so restricting. When I see you, safia, and the try guys I see amazingly talented people making amazing content.
I think of it less as literal “beauty” perfection and more of how one person can train themselves to be the most successfully well rounded in a lot of areas - fitness, social interaction/grace, some sort of talent/hobby, putting effort into your appearance/cleanliness, etc
exactly and unapologetically too.
Strongly agree
Ok why does she not already have a million subs, she’s working her ass off on these videos and she definitely deserves way more than what she has right now
Inori Kazashi quality viewers not quantity :)
Because she's always doing some vain prep girl cliche shit, most people would rather watch Safiya.
she's not that good, and that self pity part just pushed me to leave 8:41
Armyy
@@Juju-nr7cb tbh i think she was just being real with her viewers and talking about exactly how she felt and thought in that moment.
How does she only have 1 million subscribers?!?!?! She's one of the most hardworking RUclipsrs AND most entraining... YOU CAN FIGHT ME
Safiya is nygard is way better
PERIODT
YES! her videos are unique and new. She puts so much work into them, but people like safiya nygard (I still love) get more famous for posting the same "I dress like..."
@@lisahypes8835 finally someone said that......also this channel's contents are so gender neutral.
#Melissa Adriana try dat
When photographing a former beauty queen at the studio I asked her for tips when wearing heels. In her warm Texas tone she said "My Mama taught me to vacuum in my heels! You take baby steps and get used to wearing them, shifting your weight in them" Funny thing is I tried it and it works! Now I can walk in 8 inch heels like they are bunny slippers!
why is no one talking about how swole michelle really is? she’s has hella muscle and curves 🤭
*Pageant Interviewer:* "What are your thoughts on Lance Armstrong?"
*Me:* "I've literally never thought about him"
me too
I watched this video with a friend and we where totally intrigued and loving all your dedication and the quality of your videos can’t wait for part 2 👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
My stupid ass would start talking about Neil Armstrong
I think they asked her because she was a professional cyclist, maybe
Miriam Sheppard That makes sense! She probably has a more informed opinion because it’s something she’s interested in
imagine being pretty enough to randomly enter yourself into a beauty competition lmaoo
I know lol. My acne would be an immediate disqualifier.
Lucy Carey exactly😂
Lucy C ha, I could never do that I’m too ugly for that
cant realate😂💔
Michelle is though
As a female who has struggled with weight, and height, and seeing other women my age looking amazing and being small and tall. This video helped me. It showed that not everyone has the "perfect body" and no one is perfect to society. I saw another video showing how the social standard changed. It changes almost every 10 years. First people want a butt no boobs, then boobs no butt, then a thicker girl, then a smaller girl, and then they want boobs and butt. Social standards change ALL the time. You aren't the problem the world is. ❤

**Confused math meme**
Honestly I felt it when you said as much as you try to do distance yourself from femininity but at the same time you really want it
She's really raw sometimes that's why I subbed. I think Michele would be a great friend and I hope she knows she's beautiful both on the inside and obviously on the out :)
It really hit me hard when she was talking about walking in heels, how it's a skill that women are supposed to have and that shes embarrassed that she doesnt. Thats how I used to feel for the longest time!
Likes are at 666 hahah
i wish true femininity was as valuable as masculinity is, instead of women trying to compete and acting like men
I felt it too, I feel like I’m really trying to get in touch with my feminine side.
Michelle's nose is perfect
Grace O. and eyebrows...and teeth...and body. basically everything
MICHELLE is perfect 😂😂I love her
Weirdflexbutok
Isn't everybody's?
@@kirawolfe4796 no. i look like a witch
i really want to see a "i trained like a wwe Diva
thank you for that
Yessss!
“How do you pronounce your college?” Me expecting a crazy name. B**ch she went to Dartmouth.
TRAIN LIKE A BALLERINA OR GYMNAST FOR 60 DAYSSS PLEASSEEEE
Samantha Tanseco yesss it’s so much harder than it looks 😩
They did that on buzzfeed. Except for like a week.
sam tanseco lamo she’s gonna die cuz I’m a ballerina and the exercise they make u do is horrible 😣 but it’s worth it at the end
Gymnastics take A LOT OF HARD WORK! it took me a 2 month to just learn my backbend kickover!
She did the gymnast one on buzzfeed
WHY TF ISN'T THIS TRENDING, THIS IS ACTUALLY AMAZING CONTENT, U ARE SO UNDERRATED OMG
TOTALLY AGREE!
Right! I’m actually so surprised that she isn’t more popular! I’m new here and her content is amazing. Top quality!
So runed 🔥🔥🔥🔥
shes not underrated she has tons of subscribers
her: "how do you pronounce your college?"
michelle: "dartmouth"
You’ve gained me as a follower and you’ve truly inspired me. You as a person are strong and functional. I can’t believe what you do day to day, the struggle and the hardship to show us what it’s like to be in others shoes. Your amazing.
"how do you pronounce your college"
-Dartmouth ... that honestly showed the difference between you and the rest lol
I had never cringed so hard! glad they kept that part in lol
I wondered if anybody else was going to comment on that, lol. Just underscores that the Miss USA system isn't abashed that it's only looking for beauty.
I literally paused the video just to see if anyone commented on this. Really shocked me but I guess it just helps further her research about the behind the scenes and inner workings of pageants.
boston tea party vibes
Yeah that was so funny, but saying "and the rest" is not correct because only one of the girls asked her, you don't know if all the other ones don't know either.
How many times have I heard “I’m Steve Zim, I’m the owner of A Tighter U” haha
A lot
Lol he sounded so done 😂
Hmmm.. about 47482793892274927 times?
LMAO
This is the first video I’ve watched in this series but based on your intro you are definitely missing something. Pageants are SO empowering. The girls are so supportive of each other, it’s not all about looks, it’s about your personality, you ambitions, your intelligence, class, etc. I competed in the miss NJ teen USA pageant and it did wonders for my self confidence.
lets stop with this slander. it takes discipline, education, consistent effort, science, technology, creativity, at the least to look your best. whats the difference between perfecting a cat eye and shooting a ball in a hoop? is one more important than the other? bth require skill
27% body fat?? Where? Girl you are ripped. Amazing work you did the past years. Absolute body goals
Yup that was inaccurate.
I haven’t watched the whole thing yet, but I just know this is gonna be an eye opening series
YOU SHOULD TRAIN LIKE A BALLERINA FOR 60 DAYS!!!!!
Yeees that would be amazing !!!
YES
Probably impossible that sport is fricken brutal!
@@passengerprincesspodcast i agree. Her toes are gonna break
Pink Heart this is totally wrong to say, but I kinda wanna see that
I love you!! I love how you’re fearless, you can do anything when it comes to you trying new things!
I love how you really explored the implications of the industry and the struggle of stereotypical femininity which i think a lot of people struggle with.
“How do you pronounce your college?” “Dartmouth” lol ha I laughed
Katie O'Connor SAME
Derp!!!
Does anyone else find it interesting that their names are Gretchen and Regina?
Edit: thanks for all the likes!!!!
Mean Girls Much
Pickles ¿ 🤣😂🤣
Yes I do find it interesting...Karen is the only one missing
it's like they have ESPN or something
I just watched mean girls lol 😂
I am a pageant enthusiast and I clicked on this video, and I was wondering how is this woman not a Miss USA winner?! She is sooooo intelligent. And even though this is just a challenge, you could tell she really gave her all! New subscriber here
PS. I just knew after watching this video that I'd be addicted to her and her videos!!! 😍
You shouldn't be embarrassed for not knowing/being used to wearing high heels.
Your not the only one who has never worn (high) heels. I'm so glad I came to this channel, you're such a great person!!!🤩😍💞
"Judges dont know what they want to pick. U need to show them what they need to pick"
Damn.
Basically like any job interview.
I am your 500th like
I know this video is really old, but you learned so quickly and did amazing. I’m currently working on going into the teen miss USA pagent and found this and your so inspirational!
Watched this because im about to compete in my first pageant. So excited and nervous all in one. Your experience helps me so much. Im just gonna have fun with it💁💁
Donald trip : you won’t have your job if you weren’t beautiful
Me : you have your job
Shots fired 👏👏. Take a bow queen
That makes no sense
That makes no sense. Trump’s job isn’t to look good, it’s to make smart decisions for the country.
So your saying that she isn’t beautiful
This is a RUclips video we should be giving positive comments not comments about politics.
It's only Michelle who can train ranging from being a Marathoner to Miss Universe. Kudos girl.
I think, people who judge pageants kind of dismiss the hard work all these women invest in preparation and their lifestyles in general. No one becomes fit, confident, accomplished, well-kept, etc. overnight. Even this video required a high level of determination and intentionality! These are things to be admired and celebrated in anyone! There are strong ethics and values motivating people to compete. Instead of seeing the judging as negative, I think it’s helpful to see the pageantry in general as a celebration of all the things these women are collectively, and then one becomes a favorite and an ambassador to represent them all. Win or lose, it’s not like they go home without the value they came with. These are high value individuals highlighting their skills, networking, and ambitiously making gains within their communities.
sis pageants empower and embrace women through their femininity which threatens the patriarchy. when pageants fans are mostly women and gay men, how are they objectifying women? people who criticize pageants criticize femininity
I’ve been marathoning all of your videos and I absolutely love your content! Every video I’m so interested and engaged
You should train like an Olympic swimmer. It's a very underestimated sport, and requires strength from every muscle in your body. I think you would do an amazing job with this, and would be very surprised to see what swimmers do. :)
YASSSSS
Yessss!
Definitely
Yesssss!!
That would be such a good video, but it’s definitely not underestimated
She went to Dartmouth? Isn’t that an Ivy League collage? Wow we stan a smart sister
definitely not a bad school but i've known some...interesting...characters who went there
Leah H hmm interesting, may I know who?? 😯🤔🤔
many buzzfeed employees actually came from Ivy League colleges, can't say much about the executives tho, considering they're the ones filtering their contents
Isn’t Dartmouth in England..........or is that Dartmoor? I’m from England so sorry if I’m wrong, is there a Manchester in America because there’s a New England, New York and I think a Birmingham....
Anna Wykes no.. Dartmouth is in New Hampshire.. hence the comment above talking about interesting characters there
Your channel has to be more recognized girl like literally you’re PERFECT and HARD WORKER in every challenge you do ❤️❤️
Hope you get over 100 M subscribers
I love how genuine Michelle is
*your calf muscles in those heels though!!* 😮
Ellie Does Life I saw that too..😍😂
"Nothing can even JIGGLE "
I'd have to find some custom made full body support hose! HAHAHAHA
boobs wigs are shaking
Marisol Calvo Hair and boobs *should* move because it looks more "natural". (Think "Baywatch") It's more "feminine".
Sometimes you even want to shake out a couple front pieces of your hair so it looks more flowing. Boobs for effect.
Boom. Only $4,000 worth of clothing, beauty treatments, gym, training, make up, and hair extensions, to look super "natural".
;-)
@YoU gOt No jAmS :3 😂😂
Btssss
i compete in pageants a lot and it have boosted my confidence so so much, it has made me open up to a lot more people. my platform for pageants is ADHD awareness and i am teaching parents and teachers how to find those a kids and get them help for it. pageants help me cope with my anxiety and stress also pageants are my favorite thing they are so so fun to do. thankfully i haven’t had any bad experiences other than just getting cheated by the judges and i do not think they are racist, sexist, or anything of the sort. no matter how you look on the outside it’s mostly about your personality and that’s my favorite thing about pageants. i’m i’m 13 and prolly shouldn’t be writing this but i really love pageants and they have done so much good for me and for a lot of girls and it has made me step out of my comfort zone a lot.
i just love how she casually talks with us , just like in shorts and a bare face . idk , i find it homey and refreshing.
I would love to see you try American Ninja Warrior 😄
*OMG YES 🤩😂*
During the ‘20’s, when beauty pageants where first started, it was considered a feminist statement to participate. Society was coming out of the Victorian/Edwardian era where women were expected to be demure and quiet. They were not supposed to seek attention, show off their bodies, or speak their minds. To enter a pageant ,then, was bucking that mindset. However, as society changed to see these things as normal, acceptable, and even expected the pageants were no longer an example of women empowering themselves and are viewed as outdated and opposing feminism. The thing is, feminism is supposed to be about women being able to be and do whatever they want without hinderances based on gender. That means it should be just as acceptable for a woman to be in a pageant if she chooses to be as it is for her to join the military or be CEO of a large cooperation.
Tina W thank you, why is this such a hard concept for people to understand
Tina W Best reply ever!
I love this comment!
This comments needs more likes
And, several women choose to do both - have a business, be in the military or be a lawyer AND compete in pageants!
When she said she was supposed to know how to walk in heals, and she couldn’t do it, I think of my cousin who is 28 and doesn’t know how to make pasta 😂
You Italian?
No, I’m Irish
Making honemade pasta from scratch? Not many people know how to do that. I just buy the dry pasta from the store, boil it, and toss with some sauce. I like watching the fancy Chinese chefs pull the noodles.
michelle can literally do everything ♡
damn michelle. i’ve always known beauty pageants are very controversial and my idea of it was always leaning toward sexism, but i mean...you are KILLING IT. you work so hard for these things and motivate me to get up and start working. to get up and start loving myself for myself, not for validation. this cliffhanger is killing me, but i’m super excited for the next part. YOU GO GIRL!!
yendis p
Ok but Steve is basically the male version of your fairy godmother tbh
I do a pageant called NAM (national american miss) it’s different, it’s not a beauty pageant, u get judged on 4 things
1-community service
2-personal introduction
3-interviews
4- formal wear. (you get judged on the confidence that you walk not the look)
the girls are so nice and so many people that look so different have won (ex- latinex, plus sized, very skinny, African American, Indian, Vietnamese are some i’ve seen)
makeup is not allowed or tall heels and neither is swimsuits. they make it very clear that it is not a beauty pageant and u can even look on the judging rubric and see none of it has to do with looks, it all centers sound confidence
I love the interview portion. Those questions are AWESOME!
Gretchen and Regina are bullies? Coincidence? I think not 😂
If only Karen was too..
So fetch.
Don't forget to wear pink on Wednesdays.
Trnity 0w0 it’S nEVer GoiNg To hAPpen!
😅😅😂😂
I felt this to be very balanced. Very well done. Also, don't be embarrassed that your femininity isn't defined by your skill in heels, or other trappings. Your femininity is in your ideals and power.
"dates back to the 1830ies" shows a medival drawing :'D
You're so lucky, you get to do all these amazing things that others only dream of. Keep making videos like this. 😀
Miss 1988 paused after she said she was a judge and I thought ‘Oh shit! She’s a judge.’ Then she said, “...of pageants.” :/ sigh.
Fallingsakura265 I thought the exact same thing I was like you go girl way to get the coin sis
haha SAME
Okay great. Thought I was the only one 😅
Same
I had the very same reaction!
That chick who answered that ‘hard’ question didn’t even answer she just said some shit she knows everyone is gonna cheer at
Elma Turkovic and the UN is something you typically learn in History after WWII 😬
NaKai Jelani My geography teacher taught us about the UN my freshman year after talking about how countries are sometimes in a position geographically to succeed. World history is the next year so some learn even before world history too
It is just that when you are in front of so many people, it kind of gets hard to think. I feel that girl did a great job especially considering all the pressure.
thewarriorinred I’ve done pageants and your very right. It’s seriously hard to think under all the pressure. Your performing, trying to hold your poise, while trying to remember a million things, and then having to answer questions, some you may not be prepared for, it takes a lot of practice and the ability to respond to your nerves to do your best.
Yup, that's Another unspoken rule about beauty pagents. Say What they want to here not what you want to say
Your experience was super similar to mine. I entered a pageant on a whim and was super motivated by the scholarship and community service aspect of it. I didn't know how to walk in heels or do my makeup very well. I got some direction like you and improved as I kept working.
YOU were slaying your interviews omggggg
Can u train like a broadway dancer/performer? 😍🙏🏻
Jen Klen including singing, acting and dance classes!
Hayley B YASSS!! 😍
YESSS PLEASE
Jen Klen that would be so interesting
Yesssss this is such a good idea
Wow this is the first and longest video I've been able to sit through in a while without losing interest or skipping any parts. Honestly I love your hard work for this channel and the rawness, not steering it. towards a specific opinion but showing both sides. I really appreciate that.
20:45 can we respect how perfect that handwriting is
Yes
Lol 😂 “how do you pronounce your college?” 😂😂 I can’t 😂😂😂 I’m dying
I compete in Miss America and Miss USA.... I REALLY appreciate this video!!!! I have raised over $20,000 for non profits and volunteered over 4,500 hours of community service hours. I have also gained over $5,000 in scholarships from Miss America. Pageants have given me so much confidence, and I wouldn’t be a senior in college at NINETEEN if it wasn’t for these programs.
samantharosee _xx that is absolutely amazing,i hope you have more successes in your life ahead and you keep making all these changes that you are so passionate about 😃
Lujwanthy Santhanaraman Thank you so much! ❤️
You're amazing
That’s amazing!! I am so happy for you!
Thank you all so much! I am studying Child Development with a minor in Psych!
As a kid I loved watching pageants but I never thought I could compete cause Im only 5 2, so it made me weirdly emotional to see Michelle, also 5 2, absolutely killing it?
5 feet and 2 inches?
This channel should be a TV show- like legit, this is quality content that you see on TV!
Can you do training to be an equestrian? That would be amazing! Equestrian sports are so underrated, and they’re way harder than most people think.
Yes please do this Michelle!
An Acquaintance of mine, Tara Teng, entered and won Miss. Canada several years ago. She didn't do it because she wanted to win a beauty pageant. She entered because she was heart broken about human trafficking in Canada and wanted to change what was happening. No one knew what was happening, most people were oblivious to it. So she saw the pageant as a platform to voice the problem and create change. In the year that followed her title major changes started making way in Canada for human trafficking in prostitution, to protect and help victims, and create harsher punishments to those of are responsible. And the changes are still coming. She was the voice that made the first wave.
That...
That was the most beautiful thing I have ever heard. What is her name?
Thats awesome! Id like to know her name aswell. What just makes me sad is that anyone could make these changes, but not anyonr could compete for a competition like that..
@@LOVEanneLOVE oh wait the original comment says her name is Tara Teng.
i have to say....not every youtuber could commit doing this... you are amazing!!
I found this entire process exciting!!!
As someone who competes in pageants VERY similar to these pageants, let me tell you what it’s all about.
-The pageants aren’t focused on outer beauty, the whole idea of dressing up in a pretty dress or a bikini (which the swim suit section has been taken out) is to show that you have enough self esteem to be able to strut out there and be confident. Because these girls are almost always mentors to younger girls, we have to be confident in ourselves, before we can encourage other girls to be confident in themselves.
-this video is a bit outdated, but pageants have gotten much better at including different body types, and different races, I am Chinese, and ive never seen any Chinese person hold a title, but not many East Asians compete in the state’s so, someone has to be the first one right? It teaches your to be a leader, and to set new standards more inclusive ones, that inspire other girls, older and younger.
-the majority of your score is not how “good you look” in a fancy dress, (even tho we have already established, that’s it’s about self esteem and confidence, not beauty) in fact the majority of your score goes to your private interview, where you can finally display how intelligent you are, and how much research you have done on your platform (or the thing in your community you want to improve) it allows girls to show their intelligence, which because of the sexist world we live in, we don’t get that opportunity very much.
-pageant queen must live a HEALTHY not, “skinny lifestyle” but a healthy life style, which is what we should all shoot for in general, health is no joke. And since these girls are meant to be good role models, meaning we need to live a healthy lifestyle.
-what the media shows you is just the bikinis and catty girls. People don’t understand the work that goes behind it. Not just the physical training, but also doing work (that you are not paid to do, you not paid at all in this) in your community. And yes before you ask me, catty girls have definitely slipped though the cracks of pageantry, but that with almost every kind of community, I’ve had cattier girls in my church than in pageantry.
-in general, pageantry (if you get the right kind of pageantry) can be a great way for a girl to get a scholarship, display her intelligence on current issues, and will be great if you wanna do really any kind of job, because being able to to something this huge, is such an honor and takes such courage.
I love that she always tells us her thoughts/insecurities/triumphs/shortfalls. It is so important.
WHY IS THIS NOT TRENDING?!?!?! Most underrated RUclipsr EVER
Thank you for giving us a full perspective of beauty pageants! That's really important for people to see what point of view you want in this issue! I love how inspirational you are, Michelle! And you are beautiful
i am a former pageant contestant that never actually got to compete because of the pandemic. i was a candidate for a year and ultimately decided not to compete because i eventually learned of the organization’s true colors. i won’t name the organization but i will say i loved what you covered in part 1 💗
I always feel so educated after videos like this. Everyone always disses these kinds of pageants, when in reality, these kinds of competitions can supply someone with strength and confidence. It also gives people a voice and a platform. But I am really happy that you gave us the dark side of pageants. Thank you, Michelle Khare.
PandaSnot 17 Totally agree! It gives us two sides of the same coin when it comes to thinking about pageants!
The problem I have with it is that theyre supposed to be a rolemodel but then the trainer says nothing can even jiggle (which is almost impossible, bodies jiggle!) and a contestant needs to be able to walk on heels and be pretty. I understand nailing something like that feels awesome, but I feel like it shows that some girls arent good enough for this and thats BS.
I feel like the pageant winner asking how to pronounce Dartmouth is very telling...
RIPKamisan I know Dartmouth is a prestigious school
Well, I only knew about Dartmouth because of Gossip Girl.
I was literally just about the comment, she seriously didn't know how to pronounce Dartmouth...?
I mean I'm sorry but I just couldn't help but physically *cringe*
RIPKamisan Ikr? I was like, holy shit, that’s bad. It’s not like she went to Bryn Mawr! 🤣
Сongrats on 3 mil! im so happy for you! you totally deserve it! I love your videos! they are inspirational! and you are a role model to all the young children! you work yourself so hard!
I love how you will take on anything
Can you try horse riding? I'm an equestrian and it would make my day!
Tessa F omg yesss
Tessa F I tried equestrian in school, I fell of the bourse lmao.
Yes! It is so much harder than it looks!
It would be awsome
I would say the truth is somewhere in the middle. There are positives & negatives. I’m loving this series! I’m sure different people experience different things.
Loving these episodes.
You’re the best! Glad I found your videos 😍
WHY did nobody discuss the fact that miss Beverly Hills doesn't know how to pronounce Dartmouth? Like it's some unknown college in the middle of nowhere.
btw, LOVED the video!
I know! Really emphasises that pageants are all about knowledge and not looks?
I was thinking exactly the same, but hey, the closest that that girl got to an ivy league school was sleeping with one of their football players....
I was screaming 'how the hell don't you know how to pronounce that????' I'm from Europe and I even know that goddamned university!
Exactly!! Before Michelle said Dartmouth, I thought she went to some random ass school 😂😂
I was thinking the exact same thing!!
That red dress on you was amazing!
What a transformation!! You were already a beautiful woman, but the work you put into this has shown your rewards. Keep up the hard work.
"Nothing can even jiggle."
Me: 😳 umm...
