Mrs. America Pageant Day 1





Well, I arrived to Tucson tired, but quickly pepped up after meeting girls from CT, NY and CA ---where I've called home in the past...and my roommate the very cool, Shauna! After lunch, I headed out for a tour of the grounds which are spectacular with a waterfall and lots of greenery believe it or not! At dinner, all of the contestants were decked out and looking gorgeous and we met David Marmel, President and Founder of Mrs. America. Mr. Marmel explained that he did not want to have the Mrs. America Pageant as a reality show this year on the WE channel--to keep the dignity and integrity of the pageant and its contestants. And who knows, if someone falls, at least millions of people won't see it!!!

Tomorrow we have the first rehearsal with Frit and Frat---they are brothers and our choreographers and absolutely adorable!! Stay tuned for more!!
