Vote of No Confidence and a Demand for the Immediate Resignation of the Entire Miss America Board of Trustees and President/Ceo
VOTE OF NO CONFIDENCE AND A DEMAND FOR THE IMMEDIATE RESIGNATION OF THE ENTIRE MISS AMERICA BOARD OF TRUSTEES AND PRESIDENT/CEO We, the undersigned state licensees of the Miss America Organization (MAO), represent all areas of the United States, decades of leadership, and innumerable contributions to the legacy of the Miss America Organization at every level. As dedicated members of our state and local communities who lend our reputations, financial support, and voluntary efforts to facilitate MAO’s long and powerful mission of empowering women to stand up and speak out, we find ourselves needing to use our own voices of leadership to express our profound disappointment regarding what, in our view, is the failed leadership of the entire MAO Board of Trustees led by Ms. Gretchen Carlson as its Chair and Ms. Regina Hopper as its President and CEO. The recent ouster of two duly elected Trustees, followed by the resignations of two elected Miss Americas from the nine-member Board, have underscored our grave concerns regarding the direction in which MAO is headed, its financial viability, and the expected exercise of all duties attendant to each Trustee as required by law. We were promised transparency, competence, and adherence to best practices and good governance. The current Trustees and identified staff member have both individually and collectively failed to deliver on those promises and commitments. In our opinion their leadership has demonstrated that “Miss America 2.0” is simply a new title for the same old tactics of obfuscation and fear-based governance. THEREFORE, we the undersigned state licensees expressly declare NO CONFIDENCE IN THE ENTIRE BOARD OF TRUSTEES AND THE PRESIDENT/CEO. -

The Beauty of Masochism Jennifer Weber
The Beauty of Masochism Jennifer Weber My right breast is slightly larger than my left. Not freak show bigger, I mean Barnum and Bailey won't be knocking on my door and dragging me off to some glass case, hidden by velvet curtains, waiting to be introduced as the newest freak. And to the average person this physical imperfection is not viewed as a serious problem. However to the trained eye of a seasoned pag eant judge it's worth at least a one point deduction. To the public, when they see a beauty contestant on television she is perfectly put together, no flaws and a wonder of nature. They see skin of porcelain, hair tluck and lustrous, and bodies that look like they were chiseled from fine Italian marble. What they must understand is that "Beauty Queens" are not naturally born. When a baby girl comes into this world bloated, red faced and covered in slime, you don't automatically say, "She will be Miss America 2020!" There is a systematic way of achieving pageant victory that involves precise and dedicated pain. I was never really aware of the pageant world until I turned fifteen and a girlfriend of mine convinced me to compete in a pageant that was offering college scholarship money. Knowing I needed money for college and aware it was right around the corner, I reluctantly and skeptically agreed and began building my pageant career. Construction Alwqys remember that true beauty comes from within-from 7vithin bottles)jars) compacts) and tubes. -Peters Almanac Before I became a beauty queen I surged through life as a pageant contestant. -
