The Miss America Pageant
During a time when the role of women was changing from notions of fragility and delicacy to vigor and independence, Margaret Gorman in 1921 stood as the paradigm of her time and became the first Miss America. Ever since that year, the Miss America pageant has continued, and although the Apollonian is what mostly holds its’ audience, the pageantâs causatum is an affirming symbol of our modern daysâ female archetype.
The competition is not only a parade of extreme beauty, smiles, and curls, but a production showcasing adroit talent, intelligence, and elegance. Accordingly, the winner allegorically signifies the exemplar female of our modern day.
The Miss America Pageant of 2010 will take place January 30, 2010, at Planet Hollywood Resort & Casino. It will broadcast live on TLC. www.missamerica.org

The Toronto Star stated that “even if you think you’ve seen the The Phantom of the Opera before, believe me, you’ve never seen it like this.” The Chicago Tribune affirmed that “there’s no longer any reason to see this show anywhere else.” Surely, it must have something going for it.
The fact that it was The Venetian who sailed the beautiful ladies of America around its’ canals is not surprising. Only the finest hotel in all of Las Vegas, and the world, standing as majestic and dignified as The Ventian is worthy of such an honor. www.venetian.com
