This is a beauty pageant for girls aged between 3 and 11 there is going to be cash prizes and lots of girlie goodies for all of the little princess' who enter. the main aim of this pageant is to increase the confidence of many little girls in the UK. We will be running workshops to help the confidence of the girls and help them meet loads of amazing friends along the way! please get in touch asap! :)

My DH failed to get a skirt on my 2.5 yr old the other day. T shirt and leggings it was then. I defy anyone to spray tan her or dress her like a little hooker (well maybe a boxer with a great left hook.) I'm her mum. She's a gorgeous, independent, wilful little monster who will make her own way. No prissy princesses here!

BerthaKitt · 02/07/2012 23:20

The phone number and email address (a gmail one Hmm) don't show up anywhere else on a google search. There does seem to be a mini miss pageant i.e. not miss mini, but the age ranges are different. There is also a miss mini princess uk but that's in Leicester and the age range is different.

I don't think this is genuine but can only speculate as to the motivation...

See, good ol self modding at its best. Grin
ScrambledSmegs · 02/07/2012 23:22

Thank god for mumsnet.

ScrambledSmegs · 02/07/2012 23:24

Ooh, is it a scam?

Weirdo.

WhyAlwaysBoris · 02/07/2012 23:32

I love the fact that the OP posts a totally inapproriate message and then says 'if you don't agree with me please don't comment'. So thats the content and the purpose of MN understood then..........

MrsApplepants · 02/07/2012 23:32

What a horrible idea. Any kind of beauty pageant doesn't sit well with me but for 3-11 year olds its just tacky, nasty and weird.

Yani · 02/07/2012 23:37

This gives me the creeps.

mnhq can you check ip address? It feels sinister to me.

:(

hahahahaha@ "Perhaps you could get Peter Andre to be a judge? He really loves kids, you know, and his own management are just as clued up on MN demographics as you are."

thisisyesterday · 02/07/2012 23:45

hmm yes the FB page was started up in March and yet here we are in July... it doesn't even say when the pageant will be.
if you were really organising something like this you would surely be advertising it everywhere, including the venue and date???

FormerlyTitledUntidy · 02/07/2012 23:46

Ugh. This is just creepy.
Why anyone wants a toddler in tan and a bikini is beyond me.
What 11 would want to compete against 3 year old?
OP this has fucked me right off. I like my little girls mucky after playing out and having fun, thanks.

DoubleLifeIsALifeHalved · 02/07/2012 23:48

I love mumsnet,thoroughly enjoyed this thread :)

Seems like someone wanted to rattle the bars of mumsnet, for whatever reason, but I can't think why unless for some quotes? But they are all great quotes showing us at our roused best so v odd!

Anyway, With mums like you I think this generation of girls stands a chance of having a childhood & self esteem (proud of mumsnetters emoticon)

I have a Ds who isn't remotely interested in his appearance unless he's got a lion on his face - face paint that is! Perhaps a Scariest lion competition would be fun!

yousankmybattleship · 02/07/2012 23:51

My DD is beautiful. She is also clever and funny and would rather boil her head than dress up like a princess. Thank you though OP.

Krumbum · 03/07/2012 02:13

Imagine winning, the pride in being the sexiest little kid in the north east Hmm
I think women of all ages should be judged on their minds not their bodies. Are you holding little Mr north east?
This does more damage to our society than you think pageantcoach...

CakesnKids · 03/07/2012 03:56

Since march it has only got 8 followers?! And there is no mention of it anywhere else on the internet. Not only vulgar, discusting and something that should be avoided at all costs but definitely a scam me thinks.

OwlsOnStrings · 03/07/2012 09:21

Most enjoyable thread Grin. Hopefully it was just a pisstake rather than (a) a creepy scam or (b) genuine. MN at its best, though!

HipHopOpotomus · 03/07/2012 09:31

Please don't delete the thread MNHQ - anyone googling the 'pageant' (if anyone ever did) will get this thread as a top hit! Hooray!!!

This is a seriously warped and ghastly idea OP (wherever you are?)

mumto2andnomore · 03/07/2012 09:38

I've watched toddlers and tiaras and been horrified at the spray tans, eyebrow plucking, make up, sparkly bikinis and false eyelashes. All on tiny girls Sad

mumnosbest · 03/07/2012 09:42

Ooh ive got a beautiful, clever dd. I'd love to have her dressed and made up like a little hooker then paraded up and down to be judged by srtrangers. That way when she smudges her lippy and gets beaten by barbie her confidence levels will be sky high! Also my last 4 yrs of teaching her she's beautiful, smart, great etc as she is, will all have been worthwhile right?

perceptionreality · 03/07/2012 09:47

LMAO at the notion a OP like this would be tolerated on mumsnet!

rubyslippers · 03/07/2012 09:53

My nearly 3 year old DD could do her 'bum bum' song

I think if I spray tanned her, that would add a bit of je nai se quoi to the whole enterprise

Or she could do a 'little miss sunshine'

Indith · 03/07/2012 10:03

I have a 3 year old. She is beautiful, she has a dusing of freckles on her nose and lovely long hair that curls into blonde ringlets at the ends.

She spends most of her time covered in mud and other assorted muck messing around in the park with her friends and her brother, climbing trees, drawing in the dirt, digging holes and so on. When not in the park she is in the garden covering herself in sand and demanding a bucket of water so she can get soaked while waterign the plants and making lakes in the sand pit. Dressing as a princess? She might put the dress on but then she'd rip in climbing a tree.

You'll see Hell freeze over before I subject my DD to this kind of BULLSH*T
