Miss Provo needs some help with her part-time modeling career.

or to put it in her words, "pleasevoteforme oh please please please VOTE, like, VOTE, like pleaseohpleaseohpleaseohplease. VOTE VOTE VOTE."

I think she's a little prone to the dramatic, but yanno. I'll vote for her. You can too.

It's not enough to be a part-time model.

now she's a famous journalist, too.

Upon Returning from her Runway Show, Miss Provo says,

"You know what? I probably think about cannibalism a lot more than the average person."


(and, yanno, she probably does.)
(and also, that's just what she looks like when I take her picture with my phone. I'm pretty sure she wakes up like that.)
(cuz she's a MANEATER.)

So, if Miss Provo is doing an internship in New Zealand...

How on earth did she become one of the "models" for the UK's "Direct Marketing?"


Cuz, yanno. She does have great hair. But she's never crossed the Atlantic.

(Scam alert, right?!)

Oh, geez. Cuz she NEEDED a bigger head

Miss Provo is apparently going to be in some magazine.

Oh, Heaven Help Us

Miss Provo got a national job modeling for this company. Now runways all across America are going to be graced by this:

Things Beauty Queens Say

Miss Provo: "I saw the 'Stepford Wives' yesterday."

Me: "Oh. Did you like it?"

Miss Provo: "Yeah. But it kept reminding me of you and Steve."

Oh, and here's a few more pageant pics

Someone tell me, why do I think beauty pageants are creepy?

Because I'm so confused. Every time I try to think of a reason, I also think of something to invalidate it. Like:

me: they're creepy because they celebrate outer beauty and beauty is just something you're born with and have no control over.

me2: but the ability to do math? that's also sort of a talent you're born with. and math contests aren't creepy.

me: yes, but math you have to work really hard at.

me2: but Miss Provo works out 2-3 hours a day. and if working out for 2-3 hours a day isn't work, I don't know what is.

me: yes, but math is actually useful.

me2: well, beauty is useful, too. people enjoy things that are aesthetically pleasing. when you have beautiful people working for you, people like them better and then they like you better and you can do your job better. (or sell products better or teach classes better or finalize deals better.) So beauty is highly useful, too.

my bff thinks that they're creepy because they're selling beauty as sex.

that might explain part of it, but there is still no light bulb clicking on in my head that says AhHA! THAT's it!

So y'all tell me. What about beauty pageants is so dang creepy?!

Things Beauty Queens Say

Miss Provo: "I don't know what to do, I just don't have time to get my homework done!"

Me: "That's because you work out too much."

Miss Provo: "I don't think I'd have time to get it done even if I didn't work out. I mean, I only work out two or three hours a day!"



(someone else yell at her for me, will ya?)

Things Beauty Queens Say

Miss Provo: "So, this guy hit on me like two weeks ago, and he was really rich."

Me: "Rich is nice."

Miss Provo: "But I just wasn't attracted to him! Which really disappointed me because I've always *wanted* to be a gold digger." [sigh] "I guess I just can't pull it off."

Miss Provo Wants Some Help Choosing a Pageant Photo

So, Miss Provo, when did Miss USA start allowing water bras?

maybe it was because they liked the idea of a built-in fire extinguisher.
