Miss Madison-Capital City Pageant 2009

Uh. muh. gah.


Is that a red velvet dress?


Why, yes it is. (Photos by Phil Ejercito)
When I asked the night's winner, Kristina Smaby, what drives a person to enter the pageant world, she immediately noted that it is "the world's largest scholarship program for young women" and cited her own experience netting thousands of dollars in scholarship money since starting competing at the age of 18.

...really? The largest scholarship program for women? Sad panda.
