Subject: " I can tell you the national has been the same time since the pageant started, third week end of august because it usually interferes with my husbands birthday on the 29th" Ok slightly misleading but I didnt state that it was being held in August this year, we were keeping that on the DL for a reason, (click in) Author: Christi [ Next Thread | Previous Thread | Next Message | Previous Message ] Date Posted: 20:08:46 05/23/09 Sat In reply to: Michelle 's message, "That is all fine Christi but why then in the email to me you said it is in August and on the phone with Sylvia she said the same. It is just unfortunate. It really does not help either pageants and annoys the media and the public in my mind. You would never see MWC and MUC the same week. When planning I asked you and Mias when your pageant was so they would be spread out. So I can not understand how you had this booked. I am not saying you did not - but why would you not tell me in Jan That is why I asked, I made a point to. Your exact words in the email click in I posted it. I am not going to cry over spilled milk. so what ever. It is done." on 11:40:25 05/23/09 Sat it was changed because of all the other events that were being held on the same weekend, and confusing the media...the date was not released ON PURPOSE because of ppl intentionally booking thiers on the same weekend. It probably wasnt very nice to not be 100% up front with you but with your past connection to Mias pageant could you blame me for being cagey? At the time you were still listed on her site as part of her executive. It was very difficult to separate my friendships to both you and Sylvia and my loyalties to MCI. And at no time have I ever related anything you and I have spoken about to anyone else, or vice versa...I am able to be friends with 2 conflicting events and maintain confidentiality. Believe what you want tho, not much I can do to change your mind....maybe post copies of the e-mails with MCI discussing changing our date after we found out what yours was to be? I dont think we need to 'prove' anything to each other, certainly not on a public forum. And in spite of everything I would not post e-mails or exerpts of e-mails online, again, confidentiality and friendship, loyalties etc. [ Next Thread | Previous Thread | Next Message | Previous Message ]

Subject Author Date I hope there are no hard feelings between Christi and Michelle. I wish luck to both pageants this July. Sadly, pageants aren't covered much by the mainstream media anymore and even if both of these teen pageants were held on separate dates, there still won't be much or any media coverage. Why is this?! (NT) G 20:37:11 05/23/09 Sat No hard feelings on my side, my friends arent disposable, sometimes they become distan but she knows I wish her no ill will. As for the media, if I could answer that I'd be rich!!! Not reallyy but it is a question no one can really answer. Canada just doesnt seem to care is all. Pageants are not a big deal there, Maybe its our temperment, who knows. No one gets press in the pageant world (unless its negative). Look at Natalie...my god she won Miss Universe and barely a mention. Other countries issue stamps and holidays in honour of their girls who win MU and MW, in Canada its like 'oh, cool' and go about your day. Every pageant will get a little local coverage, none will ever get on tv no matter what they promise except for a local or ethnic station, but never national coverage, those days are gone. Those who are in it now arre in it purely for thhe fun of being in it. Anyone bitten by the pageant bug knows what I am talking about :) (NT) Christi 21:22:23 05/23/09 Sat Christi, I totally agree with you and it's so sad that Canada doesn't seem to care about pageants anymore. I'm glad you've been such a good sport about this same date-thing and you really do show good sportsmanship, which I'm in awe from reading your postings. I'm disheartened how mean and nasty messages can be on pageant message boards. (NT) -- G, 10:36:28 05/24/09 Sun
