Pageants


Question Posted Monday February 7 2005, 2:24 pm

16/f/ca. I've been in one beauty pageant in my whole life, and that was two years ago. Lately I've been thinking about doing more pageants and getting me involved. I really want to go into performing (especially commercial acting/modeling). Do you think this is a good way to gain experience in place of doing school plays/musicals (I hate our drama teacher/director with a passion...)? It was also a lot of fun the first time I did it. I'm not TOTALLY into winning...just as long as I have a good time with all the other girls, I'll be happy.

I guess my question is, do you think this is a good way to gain experience into the performing/acting field, or would it just be a waste of time?

well if you want to do modeling it would be a good experiance, but if you want to do more of acting and beeing on stage or film then you should find classes or try out for place that are not in school. but no pageants wouldnt be a waste of time because your still on stage and all but ya.

hope i helped

Hey, well Im in the whole acting feild thing, and what i have to say is, doing pageants will boost your confidence which you need a LOT of in the industry, like crazy, you cant be shy, so itd be good for confidence, but anything else it wouldnt really help, look around your town for acting coaches/classes...or even plays, you can get a lot from it...hope i helped!

It would get you used to performing in front on an audience. It might help you be more spontaneous and with public speaking.
The good thing is that you can win a scholarship or other money. The bad thing is that you could spend so much money on pageant clothing that you could have saved for college.
You could consider joining the debate team or defending a business plan or other idea to make the world a better place.
If you are enjoying it, and you aren't going broke, do it.

Yup, this is definitely a good way to gain experience into the performing and/or acting field. It wouldn't be a waste of time but it would if your teacher wasn't teaching you anything about this. Hope I helped :)
