Derrick Lee has been fired. He will no longer be a director with the organization. When you reach out to the national office there response is "Derrick Lee's actions were responsible for him being let go. No one else is responsible". Think it's clear that United States needed someone new here in the Midwest. -- ILLINOIS Pageants Board

Wait this is absolutely serious? How you know? (NT)	No name	11:59:27 10/27/15 Tue
I spoke to the national office. A simple phone call cleared up all the rumors. (NT) -- No name, 09:02:05 10/28/15 Wed cleared up all the rumors... could you share that with the rest of us? Can you confirm that the above posts were just N.H. airing her filthy laundry? (NT) -- No name, 11:41:48 10/29/15 Thu You can read all this stuff on Facebook. It's not on Nikki Huber's page either. (NT) -- No name, 23:27:17 10/30/15 Fri Thank you KIMBERLY TRIANI..... Owner of Everything 4 Pageants in Romeoville, Illinois. You have caused so many problems for the Illinois pageant family in spreading your shit that no one wants to hear. We ALL know who you are and why you are doing this. You are a hateful person that needs God in her life, you are a disgusting. (NT) -- No name, 22:35:17 11/20/15 Fri You mean the coach and sponsor that traveled back and forth to Chicago to help girls prepare for state and nationals and didn't make a dime. The same lady that had no obligation to lend dresses to your queens for their photoshoots and showed up with a car full of dresses so that you could have an input in the creative process. The same lady that you promised a sponsor ship to if she lent dresses to Miss Chicago and the Iowa girls for the photoshoot and nationals and then did nothing but bad mouth her behind her back and didn't honor her sponsor ship for no reason other than you didn't like her. The same lady that worked all weekend long pageant weekend and wasn't compensated a penny for her time. The same lady that consoled a teen contestant when she had a meltdown over hair and makeup and the preteen national queen when she was crying in the audience. If that is disgusting I wish there were more disgusting people in this world. (NT) -- No name, 12:15:47 11/21/15 Sat I'm not sure at all what you're talking about KIMBERLY... Your conscious must have you mistaken for someone else. I'm just a customer that has dealt with you in the past and think you're AN OUTDATED IDIOT. No one needs your help because all you do is talk bad about people. PLEASE STAY AWAY FROM THIS WOMAN. (NT) -- No name, 19:55:15 11/21/15 Sat Only one person in all of Illinois would go on the voy forum that is talking about a director she doesn't even know and comment. And every comment is cruel about a woman she hates. Unlike her I will not call you out by name. Everyone in Illinois knows exactly who is posting the stuff about Kim when this thread was about systems that need revamping. Talk about malicious and someone to stay away from. You know exactly who you are and everyone is glad your daughter will give up her title this spring and we all hope you will retire and leave the Illinois pageant world. Or maybe you can continue doing hair and makeup illegally. LOL Now I am going back to work at my legit job. After all I do have a license. (NT) -- No name, 18:40:34 11/22/15 Sun A license to work that pole honey! Go make that money ya gold digger! (NT) -- No name, 23:49:21 12/08/15 Tue A gold digger is defined as a person who dates others purely to extract money from them, in particular a woman who strives to marry a wealthy man. Just an FYI I have been best friends with them since the 90's and they have been married since then. The phrase doesn't apply. You on the other hand are a moron by definition a stupid person. A fool, idiot, ass, blockhead, dunce, dolt, ignoramus, imbecile, cretin, dullard, simpleton, clod No need for me to go on. Point made! I won't stoop to your level and cut down your physical appearance and all the shit you need done. (NT) -- No name, 21:32:30 12/09/15 Wed Gold digger got to get her gold anyway she can. Read a dictionary and learn you some fancy words to get that money girl. Work it. Get your gold and get that face tightened up. Poor little old Patrick Swayze never wanted this for his hair. (NT) -- No name, 15:18:33 12/10/15 Thu Unfortunately, the rumors are all true. Derrick was fired and the history of the Illinois United States program is unsure. (NT) -- No name, 12:49:36 11/01/15 Sun Wake up people. Derrick Lee is a thief. All proceeds from the photogenic competition that were supposed to go to the hospital went in Derricks pocket. He donated only $100. He also never signed any agreement with he hospital to collect donations on their behalf. He was asked several times from Lurie's hospital to submit the proposal. He never did. Why do you think he's deleted all the posts about the photogenic competition that were posted all over Facebook? Attempting to cover his tracks. The money trail leads to Derricks paypal account. You all didn't donated to Lurie's Hospital to help sick children. You donated to the Derrick Lee Starbucks fund. (NT) -- No name, 02:12:29 11/02/15 Mon Yes! This is all true. He is in some serious trouble. Extremely dishonest and greedy. Do not hire him to coach or enter any of his events. The stories run deep with his horrible history and track record. (NT) -- No name, 11:58:44 11/02/15 Mon Why so salty Salted Caramel? (NT) -- No name, 15:20:42 12/10/15 Thu

Lies and Cheats	No name	00:16:56 11/03/15 Tue
This happened to me too! I contacted the new national director on Facebook her name is Stephi Barton Williams she was very helpful and helped me dispute my transaction in PayPal to get my money back from him! I asked about the future of the Miss United States Pageant and she told me the future is bright and they got rid of the bad apples within the organization and they are taking applications for new directors in several states. Most of which are in the Midwest. I would so apply but I want to compete but her email address is director@unitedstatesnationalpageants.com. I never cared about Miss United States before really because I had always seen what a nightmare Chris Wilmer's pageants were, they were not like a National pageant at all but wow this new director used to be a state director and her pageants looked amazing and she's taking it back to Vegas instead of the unsafe city of DC! (NT) -- No name, 08:24:48 11/03/15 Tue What I would suggest is contacting the Attorney General's office. When Derrick takes in entry fees without an executed contract as a director that is fraud. He needs to be stopped from doing this to other potential systems/contestants. They have already opened an investigation into the fundraiser for Lurie's hospital. That complaint is a different department. You can file a complaint online. It doesn't take long. https://ccformsubmission.ilattorneygeneral.net/ (NT) -- No name, 10:17:38 11/03/15 Tue

Derrick no longer works for CarreraCo	No name	15:49:09 09/10/16 Sat
That didn't take long. Derrick is making a name for himself. Scamming people coast to coast. Carrera co probably figured it out. (NT) -- No name, 11:20:57 09/21/16 Wed Derrick Lee Is a scammer -- No name, 11:01:37 10/19/16 Wed
