OMG--why did this teen pageant queen lose her crown?


Whoa. The pageant biz just got a whole lot scarier. ABC News reported Domonique Ramirez, 17, was stripped of her Miss San Antonio title for allegedly putting on some weight and being unreliable. But Dominique is saying the pageant officials are actually, gulp, lying. Domonique is taking the pageant organizers to court in order to get her title back. While we don’t know all the deets, case def shows the icky underbelly of the so-glam pageant world.

Here’s a quote from the organizer, Linda Woods, to ABCNews.com as reported by the site Jezebel:

"She was doing a photo shoot and asked to wear her wardrobe from the competition, but it did not fit her. I told her we need to get you on an exercise program. We need to get ready to compete for Miss Texas, just like any elite athlete.”

What do you girls think? Are pageant participants elite athletes? Should Domonique lose all of her hard work over an ill-fitting dress? Blog it out...
