But this latest drama that involves a child getting bullied, is making me a little bit uncomfortable.

Alicia Guastaferro appeared on Wife Swap with her absolutely appalling parents two years ago where she became known as the biggest brat in America. Now she’s eighteen and is suing ABC for $100 million accusing the show of misrepresenting her. The pageant winner has faced taunting, online and in real life after she said on national television that she felt sorry for people who were not gorgeous, and showed off her pageant glam and “sparkle.”

Guastaferro also claims the mistreatment was the reason she went from being on the honor roll to a special eduction class. (Although it’s obvious from watching the show the school discovered her parents were doing her homework, and put a stop to it. That would make your grades drop pretty danged quickly.)

As you all may know, Miss Puerto Rico is now representing in the Miss America pageant. For the first time since 1961, Miss Puerto Rico was finally added to the lineup for the Miss America 2010 pageant. Miss Puerto Rico Miriam Pabón won the preliminary Swimsuit contest in the 2010 pageant, and now Miss America Puerto Rico is looking for the next Miss America – Puerto Rico! Here are the details:

EAST RUTHERFORD, N.J. (AP) — Former Miss America Colleen Kay Hutchins has died. She was 83.

The 1952 winner of the beauty pageant died early Wednesday in her home in Newport Beach, Ca., according to her son, Kiki Vandeweghe, the interim coach and general manager of the New Jersey Nets of the NBA.

Hutchins was a Salt Lake City resident when she was crowned as Brigham Young University Homecoming Queen in 1947. Five years later she won the Miss America title. Vandeweghe said his mother acted on Broadway for a couple of years.

Turkish businessman Yilmaz Bektas will tie the knot with 2006 Miss Universe Zuleyka Rivera Mendoza.

This was published in Hürriyet, which was tagged by Wikipedia as “an influential, high-circulation Turkish newspaper,” early this morning, March 24.

Bektas is the estranged husband of Filipino TV host-actress and former beauty queen Ruffa Gutierrez.

According to the article, which was written in Turkish and translated by a Turkish national for PEP (Philippine Enetrtainment Portal), the supposed wedding of Yilmaz and Zuleyka will take place on June 21 at the Sardinia Island, the second-largest island in the Mediterranean Sea. It was also reported that the wedding ceremony will begin aboard a yacht.

Gaspar Cruz, founder of Miss Teen World, has been responsible for coaching more titleholders to the crown than I can list without getting carpal tunnel. He has also been responsible for the makeup of Beyonce, Faith Hill and other celebrities…including our newest celebrity, Miss America, Caressa Cameron. Gaspar not only has one of the highest success records of any pageant coach that I have heard of but is also known throughout the country as a makeup artist and evening gown designer.

Steven: What’s the difference between stage makeup and interview makeup?

During your pageant interview you need to apply a full face…lashes, eyeliner, foundation, lips…the works. The difference between stage makeup and interview makeup is that you do not need to go as dark.
