Author: Portia Culbertson [ Edit | View ] Date Posted: Tuesday, May 29, 04:09:51pm Cyana Denby. Saw her at WashCo. A newbie to MAO, but seems to have a complete 4 tool package: Stage presence, physique, verbal on OSQ and Talent A. David: obviously experienced at the big stage a former Miss Maryland USA. Curious as to what she brings for the state finals for MAO. could potentially go from not winning a regular circuit local outside of sweeps to improve into a top five placement. Dominique Thornton: another system newbie. And a overall solid showing at the Miss Baltimore even through her nerves. Let’s see how she handles her First state level final. Wildcard unknown entry here. [ Post a Reply to This Message ]

Author: Mischa [ Edit | View ] Date Posted: Thursday, May 31, 11:15:15am I’ve been looking at the pics for a few days now, and I ooked at all the pics again today... There’s a newcomer Miss Free State not sure of the actual spelling of her name... but her pic was gorgeous! And she knocked it out of the park at the local... Miss Congeniality, & Best interview... she’ might be one to watch. [ Post a Reply to This Message ]

[> [> [> Subject: Gretchen made it pretty clear in today's announcement the new Miss America values talent and could care less about looks. I wonder how this might affect Sherry's preference for a swimsuit winner and her disregard for talent? Author: .

[ Edit | View ] Date Posted: Thursday, June 07, 07:47:53am would be awesome if MD gets its head out of the dark ages and actually picks a viable competitor this year. My money is on Victoria Graham, she is certainly a woman of substance. I hope this is her year. [ Post a Reply to This Message ]

[> [> [> [> Subject: Victoria Graham is not the type Sherry goes for. Unfortunate for her that I don't think it will be her year, probably ever, and I do NOT mean this as a slight to her...it's the state director that's the problem. Author: .

[> Subject: Hopefully whatever B-panel of judges Sherry is able to throw together is ready to score the competition appropriately and select a winner who is consistent with what MAO is going for: sharp-witted strong interviewer ready to tackle the tough topics (and ready to present modern viewpoints) + a real talent (not a "pageant talent"). We need more Marina Harrisons and less of what we've gotten the last few years. Author: . [ Edit | View ] Date Posted: Wednesday, June 06, 12:49:15pm [ Post a Reply to This Message ]

[> [> Subject: Well, it's a known fact that Sherry is terrible at developing meaningful relationships with contestants, volunteers, and sponsors here in Md. Wouldn't be surprised if she had a terrible reputation nationally too and the "well known" judges refuse to judge Md. Would explain some of the head scratcher results the last few years - the good judges don't come to Md. so we're stuck with whoever's left.

[> [> [> Subject: Why? Author: My View [ Edit | View ] Date Posted: Sunday, June 10, 07:19:49am Why would great, experienced judges want to judge in Maryland? You know judges talk and have heard that it doesn't matter one bit who they like. She wouldn't hesitate for one second to tell the judges that "they are headed in the wrong direction" after prelims or ask if they even listened during Judges' Orientation. On another note she is worse than terrible with volunteers. Try speaking up and either your titleholder takes a hit or you are shunned by the board. [ Post a Reply to This Message ]

[> Subject: Caitlyn Stupi is my pick. She has won a national title and that seemed to help Savvy Shields who had been a national pageant winner in another system. She is also very well rounded. If we end up with David we have another Kathleen as far as I’m concerned. I also like Sabrina Frost and Emily Gallagher. But whoever wins Maryland will have something horrible to say about them, blame Sherry and rip the contestant up so bad that the poor girl will need therapy. Author: None [ Edit | View ] Date Posted: Thursday, June 21, 05:28:31am Just my two cents. [ Post a Reply to This Message ]

[> [> Subject: Oh my God. You are so right. I nearly laughed out loud when I read this. It's funny, sad and true all at the same time. Maryland fans are just so hard to please. Whine, complain, bitch, and attack. Rinse and Repeat. Author: oh god so true [ Edit | View ] Date Posted: Thursday, June 21, 06:12:55am [ Post a Reply to This Message ]
