Teen pageants

But Trump owned the pageant for nearly two decades, during which time he would have had the opportunity to come into contact with nearly 4, beauty queens. On the heels of the damaging videotape on which Trump and former Access Hollywood host Billy Bush salivated over Days of Our Live actress Arianne Zucker, and joked about sexually assaulting women , came allegations that Trump entered the Miss Teen USA changing room where girls as young as 15 were in various states of undress. Some girls were topless. Others girls were naked. Our first introduction to him was when we were at the dress rehearsal and half-naked changing into our bikinis. Dixon went on to say that employees of the Miss Universe Organization encouraged the contestants to lavish Trump with attention when he came in.

Beauty pageants might be the last place that you think could help your teen achieve in life, but you will be surprised. The opportunities for success from the exposure in pageants are abundant and often not widely known or taken advantage of in communities of color. You will often find that the perks and opportunities are usually bigger with the larger pageant systems. Pageants give your teen the opportunity to receive informal media training with the press and develop their courage and confidence when talking to celebrities and politicians. Forget the beauty part because pageants are more than what meets the eye.
