Miss Virginia 2010, Caressa Cameron, has been named Miss America. This video shows her being named and crowned as, apparently, the most beautiful woman in the whole of the United States. Yeah, whatever.
If I’m honest, I don’t get the fascination with beauty pageants. What is the point of naming someone Miss America or Miss World? Does that crown really make them the most beautiful woman in the world? And who are we to say what’s beautiful anyway?
But maybe I’m alone, or at least in the minority on this. As far from dying out in the 1970s as I’d thought, there seems to be a new fascination for beauty pageants.
Caressa Cameron is indeed a beautiful looking woman and will do the U.S. proud during her tenure as Miss America. But I can’t say I really give a crap.
