Miss America 2010

Its been a while since I strutted my tanned, toned, tucked, pulled, squeezed, and sprayed stuff on a pageant stage, but I still watch Miss America religiously. Here are my thoughts, musings, and comments on this year's show:

Miss America's camo-military dress worn as a shout-out to the troops was henious. I appreciate the thought, but couldn't they just drape her in a flag or something?

You can always count on Miss Hawaii to dance the hula.

It's not a talent competition without someone singing "O Mio Babbino Caro"

Yay for all the cute blondes in the finals!

# of Top Ten that turned their onstage question into a "Why I'd be a great Miss America" monologue: 3

Thank goodness most of them have stopped turning themselves orange with tanner.

Singing still seems to be the "fall-back" talent...but dancers are definitely more entertaining to watch.

Damn! I was pulling for Miss Tennessee...but congrats Virginia! Have a great year!

***And I really think this song (while I freely admit to loving it in this post) was kinda inappropriate for the finale song of a pageant with so much talk of being role models and such...
