Beauty Pageant<br />

A beauty pageant is a contest<br />

to find the most beautiful<br />

contestant.<br />

These competitions are for<br />

women, men and youth at<br />

local, regional, national and<br />

international levels. Beauty<br />

pageants are usually held<br />

annually.<br />

Beauty pageants used to be all<br />

about physical beauty. Today,<br />

criteria such as personality,<br />

intelligence, talent, character<br />

and charitable commitment also<br />

count.<br />

I like watching beauty pageants on TV.<br />

“Mada!”, I say, “When I’m older I want to participate<br />

in such a beauty pageant.”<br />
