When I began producing pageants in 1983, I held Informational Meetings to tell prospective contestants about my pageant. If I could personally meet prospective contestants to explain the pageant process, I would have a better chance of getting these girls to attend my motivational deadline-to-register event: a pageant commercial filming, boutique photoshoot, or pageant workshop. Besides, an Open Call session was the best place and opportunity for me to educate prospective contestants about sponsorship support, such as how to pitch to sponsors, collect sponsorship fees, and return to the deadline-to-register motivational event to become official contestants. Meeting prospective contestants also built a foundation of trust. After every Open Call session, I set a deadline to collect the first sponsorship installment (never a deposit, as this is too easy to walk away from). To motivate the deadline date and encourage many Open contestants - usually ending up to be about 40% - I needed to have an enticing motivator, such as a pageant commercial filming, a boutique photoshoot, or a pageant workshop. I truly believed that the deadline - and all that it encompassed - had to be the secret to my huge contestant numbers. It didn't occur to me, at least not until years later, that what I was doing before the deadline was the result of huge contestant entries. Whatever this powerful industry secret is called - Informational Meeting, Contestant Meeting, Contestant Call, Recruitment Meeting, Registration Night, Casting Call, Orientation Meeting, Orientation Tea, Open House, Open Call Workshops, Pageant Informational Meeting, Pageant Meet Up, Trunk Show Open Call, and last, but not least, Open Call - it is incorporated by the #1 youth pageant system in the world, National American Miss. You might be wondering what is so secret about Open Call in the pageant industry, because you may have already heard about it. Open Call is simply the strongest contestant recruitment tool designed, even though we borrowed the terminology from the modeling industry. Open Call is designed to secure the GREATEST PERCENTAGE OF CONTESTANT ENTRIES. Pageant directors who do know about Open Call, yet choose not to employ it, probably don't understand its strength and, therefore, can't perceive the financial impact that it can bestow upon their pageant system's bottom line. Pageant directors who do employ it, like International Junior Miss, USA National Miss, and last, but not least, the most successful of all, National American Miss, often make Open Call appear as inconsequential; after all, it is rare that successful pageant directors want to admit to the secret of their success. They probably fear that their competition (other pageants) will also employ Open Call, segment the contestant pool, muck up their business model, and affect their income. This is unlikely to happen. There are many newbie prospective contestants - more than enough for every pageant system out there. You just need to know where to go, to get the girls to come to you. The non-Open Call pageant producers' attempts to reach out to the same demographics - before they are snagged by Open Call pageants - often prove fruitless. What generally happens is that the non-Open Call pageants prime those girls for Open Call pageants! Pageant directors who plainly don't know about Open Call - well, what they don't know can hurt them. I asked Kathy Raese, director of Porcelain Dolls Nationals and Heavenly Angels, if she employed Open Call in her pageant systems. She replied, "What's that?" While I did include Open Call in my business model, from the start, it wouldn't be until years later before I truly understood the Open Call mantra: going to the girls, to get them to come to you. Producing Beauty Pageants: Open Call shows you just this.

Beauty Pageants for young women have been around for many years. Miss America, Miss Universe and so on. There are many reasons why these women choose to participate.

A fresh exploration of American feminist history told through the lens of the beauty pageant world. Many predicted that pageants would disappear by the 21st century. Yet they are thriving. America’s most enduring contest, Miss America, celebrates its 100th anniversary in 2020. Why do they persist? In Here She Is, Hilary Levey Friedman reveals the surprising ways pageants have been an empowering feminist tradition. She traces the role of pageants in many of the feminist movement’s signature achievements, including bringing women into the public sphere, helping them become leaders in business and politics, providing increased educational opportunities, and giving them a voice in the age of #MeToo. Using her unique perspective as a NOW state president, daughter to Miss America 1970, sometimes pageant judge, and scholar, Friedman explores how pageants became so deeply embedded in American life from their origins as a P.T. Barnum spectacle at the birth of the suffrage movement, through Miss Universe’s bathing beauties to the talent- and achievement-based competitions of today. She looks at how pageantry has morphed into culture everywhere from The Bachelor and RuPaul’s Drag Race to cheer and specialized contests like those for children, Indigenous women, and contestants with disabilities. Friedman also acknowledges the damaging and unrealistic expectations pageants place on women in society and discusses the controversies, including Miss America’s ableist and racist history, Trump’s ownership of the Miss Universe Organization, and the death of child pageant-winner JonBenét Ramsey. Presenting a more complex narrative than what’s been previously portrayed, Here She Is shows that as American women continue to evolve, so too will beauty pageants.

Beauty pageants are wildly popular in the U.S. Virgin Islands, outnumbering any other single performance event and capturing the attention of the local people from toddlers to seniors. Local beauty contests provide women opportunities to demonstrate talent, style, the values of black womanhood, and the territory's social mores. Queen of the Virgins: Pageantry and Black Womanhood in the Caribbean is a comprehensive look at the centuries-old tradition of these expressions in the Virgin Islands. M. Cynthia Oliver maps the trajectory of pageantry from its colonial precursors at tea meetings, dance dramas, and street festival parades to its current incarnation as the beauty pageant or "queen show." For the author, pageantry becomes a lens through which to view the region's understanding of gender, race, sexuality, class, and colonial power. Focusing on the queen show, Oliver reveals its twin roots in slave celebrations that parodied white colonial behavior and created creole royal rituals and celebrations heavily influenced by Africanist aesthetics. Using the U.S. Virgin Islands as an intriguing case study, Oliver shows how the pageant continues to reflect, reinforce, and challenge Caribbean cultural values concerning femininity. Queen of the Virgins examines the journey of the black woman from degraded body to vaunted queen and how this progression is marked by social unrest, growing middle-class sensibilities, and contemporary sexual and gender politics.

Restaging the Past is the first edited collection devoted to the study of historical pageants in Britain, ranging from their Edwardian origins to the present day. Across Britain in the twentieth century, people succumbed to ‘pageant fever’. Thousands dressed up in historical costumes and performed scenes from the history of the places where they lived, and hundreds of thousands more watched them. These pageants were one of the most significant aspects of popular engagement with the past between the 1900s and the 1970s: they took place in large cities, small towns and tiny villages, and engaged a whole range of different organised groups, including Women’s Institutes, political parties, schools, churches and youth organisations. Pageants were community events, bringing large numbers of people together in a shared celebration and performance of the past; they also involved many prominent novelists, professional historians and other writers, as well as featuring repeatedly in popular and highbrow literature. Although the pageant tradition has largely died out, it deserves to be acknowledged as a key aspect of community history during a period of great social and political change. Indeed, as this book shows, some traces of ‘pageant fever’ remain in evidence today.
