VIDEO: Chelsea Morgensen – Miss Texas Teen USA 2010

Excerpt taken from J.J. Smith's article for Miss Texas Teen USA:

"A year ago, a beautiful and vivacious young lady from Laredo set her goals on something she had been considering for a long time.  It was a lofty mission -- one that thousands of girls just like her aspire to -- and now she felt she had the attributes to make it happen.  Little did she realize that all her hopes, aspirations and dreams were about to be fulfilled.  After thousands, then hundreds, then fifteen, then five deserving young ladies were whittled down to one, there stood Chelsea Morgensen, the new Miss Texas Teen USA.  Mission Accomplished."

One more mission stands before Chelsea this Wednesday evening, January 5th.  After winning the People's Choice, Most Photogenic Award at Miss Teen USA 2010, Chelsea will grace the Red Carpet among celebrities at the 2011 People's Choice Awards!  Be sure to catch this Texas beauty on Wednesday, January 5th at 9pm EST on CBS.

P.S.  Maybe they will serve mac n' cheese at the People's Choice Awards 🙂

VIDEO: Thanksgiving in Texas

Thanksgiving for me means lunch/dinner with Henderson's and the Dallas Cowboys football game followed by a weekend at the Miss Texas Teen USA 2011 pageant in Houston, TX.  120 Texas Teens will be competing for the crown currently held by Miss Texas Teen USA 2010, Chelsea Morgensen.

I was lucky enough to interview a Texas beauty and former Miss Texas Teen USA 2009, Kelli Harral.  Texas has a lot to be thankful for over the many years in pageantry and Kelli is a perfect reason why.  Thanks Kelli for the interview and Happy Thanksgiving to all.  Enjoy!  -Will the Pageant Guy

  

VIDEO: USA Pageants During Thanksgiving Weekend

Thanksgiving weekend historically, is a busy weekend for some major pageant systems across the country.  Every year, National American Miss and American Coed Pageants have their national  pageants at the Disney resorts in California and Florida respectively, and this year eight states  in the USA system will  also be hosting their pageants on the same weekend.  Delaware, Maine, Massachusetts, Minnesota, New York, Oklahoma, and Pennsylvania will be hosting both Miss and Teen pageants and Texas will be hosting their Teen pageant only.

I was lucky enough to get a quick interview with a former Teen titleholder from one of these states and I will be featuring more interviews in the next following days from a few more.  So check out what Miss Maine Teen USA 2009, Jordan Shiers has been up to in her interview below and STAY TUNED for MORE exclusive interviews over the holiday weekend!  -Will the Pageant Guy
