Learning to walk in heels is a steep curve. And painful. But women are expected to know how to wear them. It’s hard to go to dressy events and wear something that’s not heels and still look mature

I believe you can wear anything you want, men can wear pink, crossdress, women can wear whatever they want, heck I can't last in heels for one minute. It's 2020, we all need to wake up, LGBTQ, Straights, People of color, white people, disabled people, abused people, anyone should be treated the same, and instead of sending death threaths we can try to educate those who don't agree.

Baby Blue, well I'm glad you agree with some of what he's doing as President! And to be honest I don't think he's made the best moral decisions in the past. He actually used to be a Democrat too! He's changed a lot! But in reality all he needs to do for America is he a good President. We didn't elect a pastor. We elected our leader. An nd he's doing a marvellous job! But let's just take a moment to look at the type of person you are. You call our president extremely mean names, and most of what you called him are just not true! You most likely got that information from a fake news source. So you are an immature name caller, a person who doesn't check their facts and gets mislead, and you don't seem to think for yourself. You just do what everyone else is doing and be living how terrible he is. You might be an amazing leader too, but as a person you aren't the best right now.

Yes im a dance teacher and a costume designer so im familiar with them 🙂☝️ I even got to judge talent in a little recreational paegent near my studio.

It was cute and so funny. There was also a little girl who did stand up 😂💀🤷‍♂️ I wasn't ready for that lol. You could always tell when the child had thought of their talent act vs. When an adult did lol

Buzz feed was so restricting. When I see you, safia, and the try guys I see amazingly talented people making amazing content.

As a little girl (12) who has done numerous pageants since i was 6, I do think pageants need to be more positive with body positivity and need to ask better questions instead of “what’s some Insecurities you have” they should ask “what defines beauty for you?” Just my opinion Thanks for all the likes!

As a female who has struggled with weight, and height, and seeing other women my age looking amazing and being small and tall. This video helped me. It showed that not everyone has the "perfect body" and no one is perfect to society. I saw another video showing how the social standard changed. It changes almost every 10 years. First people want a butt no boobs, then boobs no butt, then a thicker girl, then a smaller girl, and then they want boobs and butt. Social standards change ALL the time.

(you get judged on the confidence that you walk not the look) the girls are so nice and so many people that look so different have won (ex- latinex, plus sized, very skinny, African American, Indian, Vietnamese are some i’ve seen) makeup is not allowed or tall heels and neither is swimsuits. they make it very clear that it is not a beauty pageant and u can even look on the judging rubric and see none of it has to do with looks, it all centers sound confidence

You shouldn't be embarrassed for not knowing/being used to wearing high heels. Your not the only one who has never worn (high) heels. I'm so glad I came to this channel, you're such a great person!!!🤩😍💞

I think, people who judge pageants kind of dismiss the hard work all these women invest in preparation and their lifestyles in general. No one becomes fit, confident, accomplished, well-kept, etc. overnight. Even this video required a high level of determination and intentionality! These are things to be admired and celebrated in anyone! There are strong ethics and values motivating people to compete. Instead of seeing the judging as negative, I think it’s helpful to see the pageantry in general as a celebration of all the things these women are collectively, and then one becomes a favorite and an ambassador to represent them all. Win or lose, it’s not like they go home without the value they came with. These are high value individuals highlighting their skills, networking, and ambitiously making gains within their communities.

During the ‘20’s, when beauty pageants where first started, it was considered a feminist statement to participate. Society was coming out of the Victorian/Edwardian era where women were expected to be demure and quiet. They were not supposed to seek attention, show off their bodies, or speak their minds. To enter a pageant ,then, was bucking that mindset. However, as society changed to see these things as normal, acceptable, and even expected the pageants were no longer an example of women empowering themselves and are viewed as outdated and opposing feminism. The thing is, feminism is supposed to be about women being able to be and do whatever they want without hinderances based on gender. That means it should be just as acceptable for a woman to be in a pageant if she chooses to be as it is for her to join the military or be CEO of a large cooperation.

As someone who competes in pageants VERY similar to these pageants, let me tell you what it’s all about. -The pageants aren’t focused on outer beauty, the whole idea of dressing up in a pretty dress or a bikini (which the swim suit section has been taken out) is to show that you have enough self esteem to be able to strut out there and be confident. Because these girls are almost always mentors to younger girls, we have to be confident in ourselves, before we can encourage other girls to be confident in themselves. -this video is a bit outdated, but pageants have gotten much better at including different body types, and different races, I am Chinese, and ive never seen any Chinese person hold a title, but not many East Asians compete in the state’s so, someone has to be the first one right? It teaches your to be a leader, and to set new standards more inclusive ones, that inspire other girls, older and younger. -the majority of your score is not how “good you look” in a fancy dress, (even tho we have already established, that’s it’s about self esteem and confidence, not beauty) in fact the majority of your score goes to your private interview, where you can finally display how intelligent you are, and how much research you have done on your platform (or the thing in your community you want to improve) it allows girls to show their intelligence, which because of the sexist world we live in, we don’t get that opportunity very much. -pageant queen must live a HEALTHY not, “skinny lifestyle” but a healthy life style, which is what we should all shoot for in general, health is no joke. And since these girls are meant to be good role models, meaning we need to live a healthy lifestyle. -what the media shows you is just the bikinis and catty girls. People don’t understand the work that goes behind it. Not just the physical training, but also doing work (that you are not paid to do, you not paid at all in this) in your community. And yes before you ask me, catty girls have definitely slipped though the cracks of pageantry, but that with almost every kind of community, I’ve had cattier girls in my church than in pageantry. -in general, pageantry (if you get the right kind of pageantry) can be a great way for a girl to get a scholarship, display her intelligence on current issues, and will be great if you wanna do really any kind of job, because being able to to something this huge, is such an honor and takes such courage.

Can you do training to be an equestrian? That would be amazing! Equestrian sports are so underrated, and they’re way harder than most people think.

damn michelle. i’ve always known beauty pageants are very controversial and my idea of it was always leaning toward sexism, but i mean...you are KILLING IT. you work so hard for these things and motivate me to get up and start working. to get up and start loving myself for myself, not for validation. this cliffhanger is killing me, but i’m super excited for the next part. YOU GO GIRL!!

Making honemade pasta from scratch? Not many people know how to do that. I just buy the dry pasta from the store, boil it, and toss with some sauce. I like watching the fancy Chinese chefs pull the noodles.

i just love how she casually talks with us , just like in shorts and a bare face . idk , i find it homey and refreshing.

Ok but Steve is basically the male version of your fairy godmother tbh

I felt this to be very balanced. Very well done. Also, don't be embarrassed that your femininity isn't defined by your skill in heels, or other trappings. Your femininity is in your ideals and power.

i compete in pageants a lot and it have boosted my confidence so so much, it has made me open up to a lot more people. my platform for pageants is ADHD awareness and i am teaching parents and teachers how to find those a kids and get them help for it. pageants help me cope with my anxiety and stress also pageants are my favorite thing they are so so fun to do. thankfully i haven’t had any bad experiences other than just getting cheated by the judges and i do not think they are racist, sexist, or anything of the sort. no matter how you look on the outside it’s mostly about your personality and that’s my favorite thing about pageants. i’m i’m 13 and prolly shouldn’t be writing this but i really love pageants and they have done so much good for me and for a lot of girls and it has made me step out of my comfort zone a lot.

thewarriorinred I’ve done pageants and your very right. It’s seriously hard to think under all the pressure. Your performing, trying to hold your poise, while trying to remember a million things, and then having to answer questions, some you may not be prepared for, it takes a lot of practice and the ability to respond to your nerves to do your best.

Yup, that's Another unspoken rule about beauty pagents. Say What they want to here not what you want to say

Wow this is the first and longest video I've been able to sit through in a while without losing interest or skipping any parts. Honestly I love your hard work for this channel and the rawness, not steering it. towards a specific opinion but showing both sides. I really appreciate that.

Your experience was super similar to mine. I entered a pageant on a whim and was super motivated by the scholarship and community service aspect of it. I didn't know how to walk in heels or do my makeup very well. I got some direction like you and improved as I kept working.

i did a pageant in middle school cause i was really self conscious and my mom signed me up for the local pageant i won 3rd place and i gained so much confidence. So yes pageants can be controversial and drama filled but not all of them are. Obviously since middle school ive gotten older but the fact that made it to top 3 has to this day been on of my biggest self worth accomplishments. So pageants are empowering but there are pageants like ms usa that are controversial and sexist. Everything depends on your mind set and the pageant you put ur self through.

As a kid I loved watching pageants but I never thought I could compete cause Im only 5 2, so it made me weirdly emotional to see Michelle, also 5 2, absolutely killing it?

i am a former pageant contestant that never actually got to compete because of the pandemic. i was a candidate for a year and ultimately decided not to compete because i eventually learned of the organization’s true colors. i won’t name the organization but i will say i loved what you covered in part 1 💗

i have to say....not every youtuber could commit doing this... you are amazing!!

WHY IS THIS NOT TRENDING?!?!?! Most underrated KZreadr EVER

"dates back to the 1830ies" shows a medival drawing :'D

This reminds me of dance competitions so muchhhhh

I compete in Miss America and Miss USA.... I REALLY appreciate this video!!!! I have raised over $20,000 for non profits and volunteered over 4,500 hours of community service hours. I have also gained over $5,000 in scholarships from Miss America. Pageants have given me so much confidence, and I wouldn’t be a senior in college at NINETEEN if it wasn’t for these programs.

Thank you all so much! I am studying Child Development with a minor in Psych!

An Acquaintance of mine, Tara Teng, entered and won Miss. Canada several years ago. She didn't do it because she wanted to win a beauty pageant. She entered because she was heart broken about human trafficking in Canada and wanted to change what was happening. No one knew what was happening, most people were oblivious to it. So she saw the pageant as a platform to voice the problem and create change. In the year that followed her title major changes started making way in Canada for human trafficking in prostitution, to protect and help victims, and create harsher punishments to those of are responsible. And the changes are still coming. She was the voice that made the first wave.

I love how you went from training for Miss USA to kicking a@$ as a boxer and passing the Navy Seals fitness test. The evolution of this channel and your willingness to challenge yourself and make yourself uncomfortable is super empowering.

I love the interview portion. Those questions are AWESOME!

I love that she always tells us her thoughts/insecurities/triumphs/shortfalls. It is so important.

The problem I have with it is that theyre supposed to be a rolemodel but then the trainer says nothing can even jiggle (which is almost impossible, bodies jiggle!) and a contestant needs to be able to walk on heels and be pretty. I understand nailing something like that feels awesome, but I feel like it shows that some girls arent good enough for this and thats BS.

You're so lucky, you get to do all these amazing things that others only dream of. Keep making videos like this. 😀

I love how you will take on anything

Your marine video was in my recommended. I'm so happy it was your videos are so good an unlike what most KZreadrs are doing. This is awesome you deserve so many more subscribers. An I know you will get there your content is amazing.

I would say the truth is somewhere in the middle. There are positives & negatives. I’m loving this series! I’m sure different people experience different things.

So like the 2 girls that were like bullying the other were named Gretchen and Regina

every time i hear "i'm Steve Zym from a tighter U fitness" i smile 😃😃😂

Thank you for giving us a full perspective of beauty pageants! That's really important for people to see what point of view you want in this issue! I love how inspirational you are, Michelle! And you are beautiful
