You are missing the whole point. Haleigh did not meet the state residency requirements to compete in the VA state pageant, so Allison changed the rule to accept her taking classes online to meet the requirements. Allison did not announce this change to any of the other Volunteer contestants, allowing them to take advantage of this same opportunity to compete in states where they didnt meet the residency requirements. Therefore she bent the rules to help one specific candidate. Dont get me wrong, I absolutely love Haleigh. But this one decision put the pageants whole reputation on the line and Volunteer became just another rigged pageant. -- Miss Volunteer America Pageant

In reply to: 's message, "I watched VA pageant stream, Haleigh was the clear winner. None of those other girls even came close, not even the same hemisphere. Ive talked to a VA insiders and itâ€™s just one disgruntled family spreading lies about Haleigh because their daughter couldnâ€™t win. Wouldnt believe everything you hear or read." on Sat June 21, 2025 00:48:00

[> [> [> [> Subject: I still dont understand why she didnt just compete in TX or OK. Or she could have even taken an appointed title. Why changes the rules and risk all the speculation when there are already 3 other pathways to her competing at National?

[> [> [> [> [> Subject: Both OK and TX directors were bullies who talked about everyone behind their backs. Both girls last year developed eating disorders because of those directors harassing behaviors towards them. The OK director had two girls in a row leave him because of this. I heard both directors were fired after last years national pageant. But then I heard Allison call out the OK directors business as one of the national sponsors at one of the prelims this week. So obviously sheÃ¢â‚¬â„¢s still putting money ahead of the girls wellbeing.
