Part of the appeal of Pageant Junkies is that I tell the truth.
Now, I try to be honest in a kind way… Rather than an “in your face” kind of way. Trust me, there’s no need for brutal honesty if it’s going to turn away your audience – But I do my best to present the truth in a way that most people will accept it.
Here’s the truth.
Pageants are not won on stage.
You might think the girl who’s been dancing since the age of 3 and has the most incredible leaps and turns is the winner because of all of her years of training.
You might think the contestant with the amazing body and long hair is the winner because she’s naturally thin and has a metabolism that lets her eat cheeseburgers every other night (whereas you don’t).
You might think the girl with the brand-spanking new evening gown that’s rumored to cost her over $4000 is the winner because “her family has money.”
I’m here to tell you – NONE of it is true.
Instead – Pageants are won off-stage.
Here’s what I mean.
Every time I talk to someone who’s judged a pageant, they all tell me the same thing…
As a contestant, when you’ve impressed a judge in the interview room, THEY LOOK FOR YOU ON STAGE! It’s True! They’re pulling for you! They want you to do well in the other areas of competition! They already believe you have what it takes to win after your interview – They’re just trying to make sure you’re compelling in each of the other areas of competition as well!
So… The question is… What are you doing to improve yourself in your interview?
At Pageant Junkies University, we’ve developed a way for you to work on your interview – But more than that, we’ve developed a way for you to stand out in the interview room.
It’s called our “Build Your Pageant Brand” digital course. There are 6 different modules – and we talk about your interview – but more than that, we talk about how you can have the best interview of your life!
We launched this do-it-yourself course earlier this week and you can find out more by checking out this link right here… We list everything you receive with the course, along with our 30 day money-back guarantee.
Just know, enrollment for this course closes on Sunday at midnight (October 25th). We do plan to open up enrollment again for Pageant Junkies University in the future – but I’m afraid I just don’t know when… Therefore, if you need this information before the end of the year, now is the time to check it out.
And that’s the truth about pageants!
Have further questions (or don’t believe me)? Email me at ThePageantJunkies@gmail.com… I’d love to hear from you!

This is 100% true. My daughter April Nelson Miss Louisiana 2015 was always excellent onstage, all three categories, but somehow just making top 10. But her very last year she worked for a solid year at being her true authentic self in interview! We always said you win it in the interview room! If they don’t love you after that 10 minutes, it’s hard to win the pageant. You have to be yourself and have them see YOU in that short time and know you can do the job. It all starts with being Real, not being who you think they want you to be.
I love all of your pageant advise. Keep it up! I will always support Miss America and I want to start judging
