A pageant is a competition in which women are judged on their physical beauty and other qualities such as talent, intelligence, and personality. Although some people may consider beauty contests harmful, others enjoy the glitz and glamour and use them as a way to meet new friends and expand their social network.
In the United States, beauty pageants have a long history, starting with photographic beauty contests in the 1850s and bathing beauty contests in the 1860s. The first modern beauty pageant, Miss America, was held in 1921. Other pageants have since been established worldwide, drawing on a wide variety of cultures and interests.
Beauty pageant vocabulary includes terms related to the preparation for a beauty contest, such as nipple covers (also known as pasties) and butt glue, as well as pageant terminology like cupcake dresses, glitz, flippers, and spray tanning. You can also find words related to the competition itself, such as the opening or production number and the final question, which asks the top contestants questions that often have political overtones.
