First off, I want to say Congrats to the new Miss Michigan USA and Miss Michigan Teen USA 2004. Both Stacey and Yelena are strong, and deserving young ladies. By the time nationals roll around, both will be well preapred, and become favorites.
As for the Michigan pageants itself. The production and all was great. And kudos to the staff and director for making the pageant a pleasant experience for all involved.
Sure, there was that little error with the names being read wrong at the end. That was the fault of the emcee, and the excitement at the end. It was fixed right away from the other emcee. Mistakes occur...that is just life.
The semi-finalist were all amazing young ladies. I know so many people on here have complained about the semifinalist, however, how can some complain? You were not in the interview rooms to know what occured between delegates and judges. Besides that, it was just tough overall. Also, any of the favorites could have had a bad day, and it reflected in interview. They always say that a pageant is won in the private interview. So be the case here.
The top 15 in both were great. You had veterans, newcomers, local winners. It was a good mix. Isn't that what a pageant should have...a good diverse mix?
As for the director...people have been putting Melissa down. No, I am not her, or a family member to her. Thank goodness she has that class and dignity to not visit this board and read what some of you so called "supporters" and "fans" have claimed of her and her pageant. It is an embarrassement to the pageant, and the state of Michigan what you people have been saying, and bellyaching about.
Melissa has turned Michigan around, and we have done great because she is on board. The state of Michigan is lucky to have someone like her directing the state, and making it one of the powerhouse pageant states in the country.
So for those that have been trying to take Melissa down, or her pageant, or find loopholes. It will not work. Everything has been fair, and on the up and up. She puts on exceptional productions. Has great staff. And does a good job overall. That is the type of director all states should have.
And for those that say they are "supporters" and "Michigan Fans" and all. Instead of complaining because you or your daughter or your local delegate did not win. Support pageantry, and Michigan. Quit making the state look bad, because in the end, it reflects poorly on pageantry as a whole. Nothing can be changed in regards to the winners. They won fair and square. Support them now!
Act like adults, set a good example and support your winners and your state. Go Michigan!
PS- Does anyone know how old Stacey Lee is?
