Yes, as professionals we each get up every day and go to work knowing that we are representing not just ourselves as individuals, but also our job title and our employer/company's brand (depending on the situation). The same is true for Miss Illinois. Each titleholder will bring to the position a touch of their own personality, which makes them unique, but ultimately they are representing the brand of Miss Illinois and that requires careful consideration. What is posted on social media or in videos is open to the public and will be viewed by more than just the titleholder's close friends. Hopefully, when a new team is selected, there will be a group of individuals on a business management/media team who will monitor this process and assist in making sure that the overall image of the organization is appropriate and one we can all be proud of. I am optimistic. -- ILLINOIS Pageants Board

In reply to: 's message, "I agree. Her videos and vlogs consistently demonstrate a lack of both poise and maturity. When you compare her credentials, her social media savvy and those other things you mentioned (professionalism and class) to contestants from some other states, the difference is astounding. I'll be so glad when the pageant is over and we can move on. I'm sure Crystal is nice. I just think she's maybe out of her depth here." on 13:00:02 08/24/15 Mon
