The only way these things can stay relevant. Beauty pageants are so fucking cringe and should be deleted in their entirety.

Yeah, they are cringe, but these are adults, not children. It's the same as a bodybuilder competition, as far as I'm concerned. Not for me, but as long as people aren't getting hurt, it's just entertainment. Just keep the kids out of it.
