] Date Posted: 04:49:53 07/05/11 Tue A few of the teens aren't included here, as they may not have been in Las Vegas for the Miss USA pageant. The missing ones are: Alaska, Idaho, Michigan, North Dakota, Oklahoma, Virginia, Washington, Wyoming. Surprises for me? For the good: Alabama, Nebraska, Pennsylvania, Vermont For the not-so-good: Illinois, Indiana, Kentucky (put away that cleavage!), Maine, North Carolina, Tennessee The pictures are ordered (sort of) by region:      [ Next Thread | Previous Thread | Next Message | Previous Message ] |

| [> [> [> [> Subject: I think that these pictures give you a more realistic view of what these girls actually look like every day. I think that's a truer test of how they will do at USA since the judges see them in person and not through a photograph. I really like HAWAII, CONNECTICUT, MASSACHUSETTS, and TEXAS. They look fresh and youthful and naturally beautiful. I am surprised, and not in a good way, with Nevada and Illinois (too much HAIR!), Nebraska and TN (too orange!), and OR, SD and MD (too messy). | |

Looking at these photos to go along with what I saw my favorites are: FL, TN, ID, CA and even though she seems to not be as favored anymore KY. I still think she's a pretty girl. These were my standouts in person. In this group of photos FL and TN rock!!! | |

| [> [> Subject: The photos were taken by the official Miss Universe Organization photographer while the Teens were at an MUO event in Las Vegas. Some of them may not have been in full competition mode being a month before the pageant, but you'll probably get more similar headshots like these next week from the Bahamas (there won't be any Fadil photos). Click in here for a few of your favorites in their full-length photographs. | |

| [> [> [> Subject: These girls at ABSOLUTELY no idea that official photos would be taken that night. I know for a fact that directors were also unaware. The teens had been promoting the program all day long. Not only that, but they had to wait in a long line in a hot room to get there photos taken. They had no opportunity to touch up their hair, makeup, wardrobe, or anything, because MUO states titleholders cannot "primp" in public. Just another sign that Trump doesn't give a $#!+ about the teen program | |

Just wish we didn't have to watch online! Images are not as clear as TV. And it's live but it seems to stall. At least it did last year. Regardless, love watching the teens and the excitement around them! Good Luck Girls!!! | |

| [> Subject: They are official MUO press photos and technically not open to the public, but eventually I figure Pageant Update will show them. Pageant Fanatic (http://pageantfanatic.jimdo.com/miss-teen-usa-2011) has full sets of 5 photos each for some of the contestants (AL through CT) posted already. As for those complaining about how bad the photos are (and some of the poses aren't great, though not as bad as previous neck-contorting Fadils, or even some of the contestant-submitted headshots...I'm looking at you, Vermont), I think it's telling how conditioned we are into believing that heavily retouched studio shots are reality, and not how the girls actually look like, with uncaked-on makeup, blemishes and baggy eyes and all. | |

| [> Subject: Guess we all have our fave's, but must remember that we have NO idea what the judges will be looking for! Will it be someone tall, modelesque, elegant and photogenic? Some one shorter, sassy and Teenager-ish? They will also have to be well spoken and outstanding in a swim suit and evening gown. With so many deciding factors the only sure thing will be whomever it is will just have to have that certain IT won't they? | |

| [> Subject: When a girl takes a good picture in a bad shoot, you know she's got the goods. The prettiest standouts here are easily Florida, Connecticut, No. Carolina, Kansas and Kentucky....their beauty and spirit are effortless and palpable. Florida for the win and the unexpected "dark horse" who could go further than most think is Connecticut. | |

These photos are terrible and I think its a shame that our teens worked so hard and deserved better than a background thrown up in a badly lit ballroom and them all being unaware these were going to be their official ones. Granted the always be prepared thing but at least give them the heads up! They worked their butts off and deserved better. Terrible photographer! What a shame! | |
