http://mrsidahoamerica2009.blogspot.com/ -- IDAHO, 12:34:38 12/05/09 Sat Any more? Looking for blogs of our local level girls who are competing at the state level. -- Let's hear for the local ladies, 04:41:45 12/08/09 Tue http://mrsoaklandcounty.blogspot.com/ -- Michigan, 11:46:56 12/08/09 Tue http://mrsspokanecelebratessmiles.blogspot.com/ -- .., 11:30:18 12/11/09 Fri http://mrspiercecountycarlarichards.blogspot.com/ -- .., 11:31:45 12/11/09 Fri SashaTownsend.blogspot.com -- Sasha, 16:21:03 12/18/09 Fri Re: BLOGS -- Didn't Sasha just give up her international state title??? Crown Chaser???, 17:37:46 12/20/09 Sun The year before last. Don't see her winning though for America. Top 10 for sure, thats about it. -- s, 19:14:30 12/20/09 Sun You guys, Sasha is not a crown chaser. I am so sick of these crown chaser comments for anyone. God forbid people actually find a hobby that they enjoy and strive to improve with. Some of you ladies are so jealous, I can't imagine you have an easy time getting dressed in the morning since green is such a hard skin color to work with. Sasha is a beautiful woman inside and out and she has a very strong platform issue. While not required for competition in America, it will allow her to continue making a difference in an area she cares about. I fully support her and think she'd be a great Mrs. America. Look at the winners ladies, they're pretty, kind, humble and Sasha is all that. -- Get. A. Life., 08:03:53 12/21/09 Mon Have you read her blog? Humble not so much. -- who cares really?, 12:44:29 12/21/09 Mon most people have to win a state title before they can compete at Mrs A. -- just sayin, 13:19:53 12/21/09 Mon I find this conversation about Sasha offending. Several ladies compete and win a state title, complete thier reign and then try for another. Then for someone to say she is not humble: this certainly isn't coming from someone celebrating the seaon of joy! -- Merry Christmas, 11:13:09 12/22/09 Tue Re: BLOGS -- CLICK IN!!!!, 19:10:50 12/22/09 Tue Re: I say compete all you want! You never know when life will take a turn that will keep you from competing (job change, economy, pregnancy, etc). Besides that, how can you tell someone who is over 35 that she should take a year off in between knowing that it can take a few years to win your state??? -- Passion for pageantry is a good thing!, 09:02:30 12/23/09 Wed Agree. The idea that a titleholder is touting a specific system as "the best" is silly. A titleholder should be promoting the positive aspects of her given title but it doesn't mean she can't be positive about her pageant experiences with other systems. It should not be an "either or" condition of being a queen. -- Two time state titleholder winner who was able to promote both as great programs~, 10:17:33 12/26/09 Sat go for it! -- lisa, 14:36:11 01/06/10 Wed Re: BLOGS -- Sasha has no problem promoting herself!!! In fact she does it way too much IMHO, 12:30:03 12/27/09 Sun Whomever you are, you obviously are worried about her. Worry about your actions, which on this board are inappropriate. -- Not a fan of putting people down, 13:51:54 12/27/09 Sun I am SOOOOOOO worried about her!!! She is absolutely amazing and I know how tough it will be in competition. -- me, 08:21:20 12/28/09 Mon HA!! That's Funny!! -- LOL, 07:45:53 12/31/09 Thu

-- Prelim Swimsuit, 12:07:56 11/28/09 Sat Re: Her gown looks almost identical to the gown that was designed on Project Runway for Miss USA to compete in Miss Universe a few years back (the gown for Tara looked like this but with a necklace attached) -- ., 06:20:05 11/30/09 Mon Not really. The one for tara was taffeta with no beading except for the necklace then puffed out at the bottom in taffeta. This one is beaded at the top with featehrs at the bottom -- no resemblance, 18:17:51 12/01/09 Tue Re: check out this link http://nilla.typepad.com/picpicpictures/images/taraconner.jpg -- ., 07:59:33 11/30/09 Mon They don't take their sarongs off to compete? How strange! -- what's the point of swimsuit then?, 09:17:35 11/30/09 Mon I don't know for sure, but maybe it would be considered immodest in some cultures for a married woman to be on stage wearing just a swimsuit. I think that Andrea looks great with or without a sarong! -- Mrs., 19:13:44 11/30/09 Mon In our state we had to leave the sarongs on also, and some were thankful for that. -- 2010 Contestant, 18:00:04 12/01/09 Tue Re: I wish that Mrs America would have contestants at state and nationals wear the sarong. It evens up the playing field (if it reallly is suppose to be a pageant for women from 18 to 50 something). Why the emphasis on who can spend the most time in the gym or at the surgeon? -- I like it., 08:44:09 12/02/09 Wed not fair to those who have worked out hard to have a solid body to have to hide under a sarong. It should be a choice, not mandatory. -- jmo, 15:34:05 12/02/09 Wed Re: Again, why have to spend hours in a gym or get surgery to wear a swimsuit at a pageant. That kind of committment should be applauded for community service, not gym time. -- Just a thought., 15:54:04 12/02/09 Wed Ahhh this is a beauty pageant! If you're looking for a more "community based" pageant, go to Mrs. Int'l, where even heavier women win. Mrs. America celebrates a woman who can do it all...be beautiful, in fantastic shape AND help her community. -- Sorry, 05:42:49 12/03/09 Thu Re:Should being gracious on the voy board be a prerequisite too? -- LOL, 09:05:45 12/03/09 Thu Nope we state the facts here. If you can't take the heat......get off the board -- LOL, 09:44:48 12/03/09 Thu Being gracious in general should be a pre-req for being a queen. "Beauty" is an entire package, and our Mrs. Americas prove that. They are not THE most beautiful or THE most thin if you look at history. They are the best choice at that particular time (opinions, different judges, different day, etc) for the job and we are proud of each one of them -- We need to give people reasons to look UP to pageantry, not DOWN on it, 11:50:50 12/03/09 Thu i THINK THISIS TOTALLY UNFAIR. i HAPPEN TO HAVE GREAT SMALL HIPS AND BEHIND BUT MY STOMACH IS MY BAD AREA. IF I CAN'T COVER UP MY STOMACH WITH LOOSE MATERIAL WHY SHOULD SOME WOMEN BE ABLE TO COVER UP THEIR LARGE HIPS. UGH -- NOT FAIR, 14:30:19 12/03/09 Thu didn't meanto yell. 5 year old put on all caps without me realizing. -- mommy, 14:31:36 12/03/09 Thu I totally agree with you!!! Let me show my assets! And, if you aren't a pear shape or an hour glass shape, the sarong looks aweful and makes you look think in the torso. So why should I be stuck with that problem when I have great legs! (NT) -- Let's hear support for the rectangle girls, 16:49:17 12/03/09 Thu If you want community based, do Int'l. If you want to show off your assets in a BEAUTY PAGEANT, do Mrs. America! (NT) -- simple as that, 17:28:45 12/03/09 Thu America all the way (NT) -- America, 14:35:05 01/06/10 Wed I can't read the banner - who is in the black gown on the left at the end. I find her and her gown to be striking. -- 2010 State Delegate, 17:39:15 12/04/09 Fri gorgeous ladies! Andrea looks beautiful! -- Lots of competition, 12:44:51 12/31/09 Thu

Subject: Mrs. PA America????
Author: Still Puzzled (frustrated) [Edit]	Date Posted: 13:36:31 12/04/09 Fri I keep checking and the links do not work, there is not a contact, etc., for Mrs. Pennsylvania. The link shown below goes to Mrs. United States. I then emailed the main office. Have heard NOTHING. This is over two weeks. I guess they have enough contestants? Who is competing for PA America, anyone know? How about other systems to recommend? (for PA) [ Post a Reply to This Message ]

contact the director at info@mrsnyamerica.com I know there are a lot of plans being made to make this an outstanding show. Don't give up on them yet. -- Friend, 09:00:40 12/05/09 Sat Whatever! The reigning Queens aren't even in the know! They haven't even heard from their directors! Such a huge possibility in those 2 states and then you have directors that don't step up to the plate! Calling all directors, learn from this situation! Poor Nicole and Joyelle! We are proud of you ladies! -- Ugh tired of it..., 12:57:21 12/12/09 Sat I just checked the PA and NY sites. there are little changes but still no word of when the pageants will be held! Boy...for 'Director of the Year', you'd think he'd have everything set, ready and contestants lined up!! Guess it's hard to be director of NY & PA when you live in another state!? (NT) -- feel bad for anyone who wants to compete, 02:40:14 12/13/09 Sun What a joke! I feel bad for the reigning queens-no support and who knows if they'll have a successful pageant to give up their titles. This is horrible! (NT) -- YIKES!, 09:42:10 12/13/09 Sun PA is Memorial Day weekend (NT) -- Lots of directors live in other states., 11:20:22 12/18/09 Fri where did you get that information?!? any word on NY?! (NT) -- thanks for the info, 02:49:36 12/20/09 Sun Straight from the director's mouth (NT) -- 2010 Contestant, 04:40:44 12/20/09 Sun Wow! Do the reigning Queen's know this info? I know one of them and she had no idea... Communicate much?! (NT) -- A shame!, 08:52:55 12/20/09 Sun

Thank you for posting this! My best friend was top ten that year and lost her video. She is in this clip and will be thrilled to see it! -- LOVE THIS!, 12:57:54 12/15/09 Tue Re: I originally found this clip on Ebay of all places. (I posted it last month, but nobody noticed it) I guess the lady who won had decided to sell the fur and had this link to show it. -- So glad people are enjoying it., 14:43:00 12/15/09 Tue Wow! What a show. I got goosebumps watching it! -- Thanks for sharing, 15:39:08 12/16/09 Wed The staging and show looked wonderful. It is great to see that the program appeared to do so well at that time. Was this in Vegas? Where was the show? -- Looked like the ranks of the Miss pageants., 15:54:51 12/16/09 Wed What happened to this type of production? What a show!!! (NT) -- I agree--it does seem more like a "Miss" pageant!, 19:10:20 12/17/09 Thu Loved this clip -- the pageant looked so exciting and glamorous!

Great job Mrs America!!!!! -- Mrs Contestant, 18:11:06 11/22/09 Sun What is with Russia winning this all the time? Or atleast women from that region? It happens almost every year. I'm glad Andrea didn't win because I like her as Mrs. America. However, the way Mrs. World is run is so bizarre. -- ick, 05:32:34 11/23/09 Mon Russia should have touched up her hair before the pageant!! Her hair looked like a blondie/yellow!! And putting the ugly cronwn on her head.....two negatives! -- Sorry...just my opinion!!, 16:35:34 11/23/09 Mon The yellow in her hair is flowers....maybe that is what you see. (NT) -- She is beautiful, as is Mrs. America!, 06:52:40 11/24/09 Tue I do not like the "new" crown. It may be real but it looks like those plastic ones you buy at the dollar store. (NT) -- JMHO, 10:42:54 11/24/09 Tue When you say "REAL", do you mean as in "GOLD with Gemstones"? (NT) -- If so, that's cool, but it is really, really ugly. It does look like a $1 store crown!! LOL, 22:45:25 11/25/09 Wed Re:As far as I'm concerned, any crown is a good crown if it's on my head, lol. But seriously, can't they give the ladies some flowers? It looks beyond awkward reading the names of the ladies and they walk off empty handed. (NT) -- flowers please, 18:15:02 11/26/09 Thu
