"Vegas, Baby!"

Just viewing the title of the Vegas pageant got me worried, and sure enough, 90% of the toddlers were dressed up a showgirls. Cone bras, showgirls, lady gagas, what's next? Also, not long ago the Mardi Gras pageant was released. I have to say that little Brenna reminded me of a mini Mackenzie. I loved how she yelled at her dad for talking on stage.
Toddlers and Tiaras next release is featuring Taralyn (a toddler star!). From the preview, it looks like she had a breakdown during crowning when she lost at her last pageant. Sweet little Taralyn, who always congradulated all the winners? Now I may be wrong, but if I'm right, it looks like Traci Eschberger might have pushed Taralyn a little too far.
Going back to the Vegas pageant, Cassidy Blair is back! Now that she is on meds, it's true that she doesn't beat up inanimate objects anymore, but that doesn't stop her from being a little devil. She absolutely loves hitting her mom and you would have thought she was going to die when she got a paper cut. If it were up to me, I nominate Cassidy for playing the child demon in the horror movie!

"It Hurts To Be Beautiful"

Five year old Faith's mom's most famous quote would be "It hurts to be beautiful." A new season of Toddlers & Tiaras has just released their first episode, and we've already been able to prove Faith mom's quote.
Five year old Sami Jo was taken to get an eyebrow waxing. Appearently, this was not her first time, because the wax had once burned her and ripped off her skin. In this experience, we see a 5 year old screaming "NO!" and crying after and before she gets waxed. I don't know about you, but I'm pretty excited to see how the rest of the season turns out...
Based on the new season clips on TLC, I can infer we will be seeing two twin babies who own 70 dresses not to mention a private jet. On top of that, two of our Toddler Stars, Eden Wood and the unforgettable Makenzie will be returning. According to her mother, Makenzie has "matured." Can't wait to see if that's true!

Little Miss Perfect is also airing their first episode on January 19th, so stay tuned to see how things turn out there!
Since I promised this issue would be a "Worst Parents" issue, here you have it:
Jaime Sterling is definently up high in the rankings, closely followed by Isabella's mom (guess which one I'm talking about this time!), although we haven't seen Sami Jo yet, I have a pretty good feeling her mom makes top 5, the little boy Zander's mom, oh, I could go on forever. Comment about your thoughts!

#2: Sterling Twins & Cutie Patootie

If you are familiar with Toddlers & Tiaras, then you are familiar with the Sterling twins. Jaime Sterling, mother of five beauty queens, chooses to feature her twin daughters BreAnne and AshLynn Sterling on the show.

"BreAnne does look a lot like mommy," she states, "she is probably the prettiest of the five."

First of all, it's wrong to think about which of your daughters is the prettiest, but going from a thought to a statement on t.v. is HORRIBLE! What are poor AshLynn and the other three kids going to think?
BreAnne also seems to have very high self-esteem, knowing that she usually wins queen when her twin sister only wins princess. AshLynn, on the other hand, seems to have very low self esteem. "I don't like competing against my sister because it's hard to win," she says.

BreAnne also shows to have potential to be a brat when you see her kicking and screaming at the pageant. Her dad insists to pull her out, and finally, Jaime unwillingly pulls her out of the pageant. Stay tuned for a next issue featuring "Worst Parents", which we all probably have an idea on who they are...
BreAnne Sterling                                                            AshLynn Sterling

Now for a fairly newer topic, the "Cutie Patootie" rap, preformed by the famous Toddler Star Eden Wood. We see her rap on the talk show, where she states she likes to shake her bootie. Shannon looks like she's going to die, but Eden later states when asked if she really wants to do pageants "I want to do it all." Well I hope Eden enjoys her life as a beauty queen more than AshLynn!

Toddlers & Tiaras Stars, Little Miss Perfects and Baby Beauty Queens

This is the first "magazine" entry! I will now talk about the toddler "stars" of toddlers and tiaras. These are the kids who made the biggest impression on the show whether it is because of their positive attitude, negative attitude, winning streak or something else!

The first Toddler Star is Miss Eden Wood. Eden was shown at the Universal Royalty pageant where she took home the Grand Supreme title. Her biggest rival, Taralyn, is another Toddler Star. She was newer to pageants than Eden, but that didn't stop her from rocking the stage! In her featured competition she took home the highest title beating Eden, but later Eden was shown beating Taralyn. Stay tuned for the next magazine issue: Eden v.s. Taralyn!

Our next Toddler Star is Miss Isabella. You may be thinking, which Isabella? There were so many! But you can probably have a good idea of the Isabella I am talking about when I say this: she might just have the sweetest attitude on the show. This little brunette wears cute little glasses and I have never seen her be upset. Isabella is the "Miss Congeniality" of the toddlers!

The next Toddler Star goes to Miss Story. She may not be the most memorable of the toddlers, but when I say "Story" you probably know which girl I'm talking about. But why Story? She didn't win, she didn't have the best personality or the worst, but to me, Story just stood out because of her extreme beauty. If anyone was born to be a beauty queen, it was her. But don't forget that there is more to life than being beautiful!

I could go on all day, but toddler stars wouldn't mean what they mean if I did. So the last Toddler Star is Miss Makenzie. Yes, I think we all know which one I'm talking about! Makenzie, the sweet freckled four year old with the big blue eyes...but that's definently not where it stops. We first see Makenzie when she's talking about fancy clothes, yet when her crown falls off her head the fancy clothes are forgotten and are followed by a dreadful scream. We all remember her signature lines such as "Well, where's my drink?" and "You are drivin' me nuts!" But don't let all that fool you. When she gets on stage, you would never think there's a devil behind her angelic appearance!

Well, that wraps up our Toddler Stars! Comment on what you think of these girls and who you think should have been or was chosen to be a toddler star.

But Toddlers & Tiaras is only one show where we see little beauty queens. If you are not familiar with these, I am sure you will enjoy the shows "Little Miss Perfect" or the British reality show "Baby Beauty Queens".

If you are familiar with the show Little Miss perfect, then you must be familiar with Miss Shelby (the brunette with the light eyes). Shelby was competing against Hadlie, and although Hadlie won the title of Little Miss Perfect, Shelby did not place in the pageant. We later hear her mom say "This will be the last pageant Shelby will compete in". Well I can prove that statement wrong! In a later featured Little Miss Perfect, Shelby competes against Taylor & Madison vs Maggie. Shelby once again misses the title, but places second in the entire pageant.
Well, mom, anything to say to your defense?

Baby Beauty Queens is a British show featuring child beauty queens. Unlike the US, Britain had no child beauty pageants until a few years ago. Two pageant organizers opened up a pageant called Mini Miss UK. The youngest kids to sign up were seven years old.

The three contestants featured were Madison, Tyla and Sasha. Madison, a nine year who wanted to be a model had sky blue eyes and brown hair. She and her mum would do anything to win the pageant-that included having their whole church pray for her.

Tyla was also nine years old with long brown hair and darker blue eyes. She was the youngest child ever to get contact lenses, and at the age of seven she got plastic surgery on her ears because they "stuck out".

Sasha was only seven and she was a cute little blonde hair blue eyed child who liked to play dress up. Her family lived in a small house and could not afford the expenses of the pageant so they had to get help.


Eden Wood

Neither of these girls ended up placing in the pageant. Comment on what you think and remember if you haven't already-watch these shows! They're great entertainment!
