The 2010 Nassau Beach Beauties Calendar is a huge success! With 12 gorgeous Calendar Girls, we wanted to give you a sneak preview  to get to know our girls!

How does it feel to be a Nassau Beach Beauty Calendar Girl & Centerfold?

It’s a great honor! Taking part in the Nassau Beach Beauty Calendar was an incredible experience, one that I will never forget. It was not only a great accomplishment of all the hard work for everyone involved but also a personal achievement. What a BLESSING!

What was it like shooting in the Bahamas?

BEAUTIFUL! I’ve never been a morning person but waking up to the incredible view from our bedroom window and fantastic company was something I looked forward to each morning. Shooting in front of the Nassau sunrise was mesmerizing. I couldn’t help but take photos of the experience on my personal camera, which are currently hanging in my apartment!

How long have you been modeling?

At the age of 13, I found my first agent and began acting and modeling. As I child, I always had a passion for both. This passion drove me to actively find an agent and pursue a career in the industry at such a young age.

Jeanette Morelan, Miss America’s Outstanding Teen 2010, visits the PageantCast!

Jeanette Morelan, Miss America's Outstanding Teen 2010

We are so excited to announce that Jeanette Morelan, the 2010 titleholder for Miss America’s Outstanding Teen, is coming to the PageantCast.

Oddly, Wisconsin’s only current national titleholder caught up with us from Orlando, FL to record our interview. (We hope to air on August 10, 2010 just before the national pageant.)

Jeanette is a very engaging conversationalist and I think all our listeners will enjoy listening to this great interview.

Jeanette’s platform is “The Power of ONE”, which aims to motivate and inspire people to realize that they have the power to dream, the power to believe in that dream, and the power to act on that dream. (from the MAOT website)

I met Jeanette at the Miss Racine (MAO) local pageant where I took the picture accompanying this posting. (You can find more of my photos of Jeanette at the photo gallery link I have below.) In person, she is every bit the lady you will meet on our interview.

Set aside August 10 for a great interview with Miss America’s Outstanding Teen 2010, Jeanette Morelan, on the PageantCast.

A few people have asked why it seems every year that I cover the International pageants that I include a photograph of an old McDonald’s from the 50′s era. Believe it or not, there is a story behind it.

Every finals night, I visit the original McDonald’s on Lee Street in Des Plaines, IL. My brother lives nearby, so at first it was just convenient. Afterall, I always knew the Chicken McNuggets would settle properly in my stomach and sometime pageant results can get you exciteable. Or turn your stomach. So you want a meal you know will settle properly.

I love that old McDonald’s. The original location has been turned into some kind of shrine and the new one that still operates is like a mini-museum with memorabilia all over the walls. It isn’t the Norman Rockwell print portraying a McDonald’s meal that keeps me coming back, though. Nor the diorama of an idealized Golden Arches from the gravel roof days. It’s a little photo of what I imagine was one of the original crews in their white uniforms with black shoes and belts and suave paper hats.

I’ve imagined stories for each of the nine gentlemen in the picture. One guy looks quite a bit older than the others who I imagine was the surrogate Poppa for the group. I’d imagine him listening to all the girl problems of the other young men on the crew. Seated next to him, was what I’m fairly certain was the wisenheimer of the crew…always pulling a stunt on someone or cracking a joke. Then, there is the cool guy in the back row that wears his little hat a little cocked to one side and has his hands resting comfortably in his pockets.

Those aren’t the guys I focus on, though. It’s this little character in the back row. I imagine him to be a quite little immigrant with some difficulty with the language. He doesn’t have his arms crossed trying to look tough like some of the crew. He instead has his hand perched on the young man’s shoulder next to him with a smile that demonstrates the deep, piercing pride he has to be a part of this crew. He just seems jazzed about the entire experience. At the time, he couldn’t have known that this crew would perform so well that a worldwide restaurant entity would be based on their efforts. In fact, in my imagination at least, I figure this funny little character was probably picked on by the other crew members–for being skinny, for being short, or for some funny little ACK-sent he still had from the Old Country.

I guess this may be the very reason I’m so taken by this little guy. I’m the son of two immigrants, that sacrificed much, to enter the greatest country on the planet. I see some of that sentiment within the cute little toothy smile of the man in the paper hat. But there is more to it. He’s proud to be in this group of men. Despite all the kidding around, he’s proud to be with them. He may not always feel like he is a part of things, but he’s just tickled to get to see this world that they’ve created here among themselves.

So it is with me.

I mean, let’s face it. I don’t belong in this whole pageant community. The flabby forty-year-old from Milwaukee, Wisconsin doesn’t fit in with the glamourous sparklefests that pageantry engulfs. Yet, this community has accepted me, sure with some teasing, but accepted me and included me in some of its most exciting and most taxing moments. And I’m just tickled. Tickled to see these young ladies become who they want to be and promote the causes they find near and dear to them.

So with a smile, and a tilt of my paper hat, I return into the kitchen and make some of those French fries that are just so difficult to stop eating…and hopefully make a podcast you just can’t wait and want to keep listening to.

By the way, now I’m hungry for those French fries all over again. I just hope you’re still hungry for more PageantCasts because I have one made to order for you next…and every…Tuesday. See you then!

Miss and Teen International 2010 Finals

Jul 24th

Posted by PageantCast in News

Chicago, IL

July 24, 2010

We’re back and we’re happy you are back, too!

The final night of competition is here before us in Chicago, IL and we know you are all looking forward to what is in store. Let’s quickly review what has been awarded so far.
On Thursday, the Teens awarded Congeniality to Megan Willey, Miss North Carolina International 2010. Photogenic was awarded to Miss Arkansas International 2010, Mollie Parker.
On Friday, they awarded Kristin Koether, Texas, the Director of the Year award. Congeniality was awarded to Ali Glaser, Miss Missouri International 2010, and Photogenic was awarded to Miss Oklahoma International 2010, Anne Marie Costello.
In fact, we were lucky enough to get interviews with Megan, Ali and Anne Marie for our podcasts coming out next week. You won’t want to miss those outstanding glimpses at the ladies as they prepare for their finals competition.
As we wait tonight for everyone to file into their seats, an odd quiet rumble fills the air. Nerves, tension, and even a little fear fill the air. The jubilant excess of the preliminary nights has been replaced with anticipation and nervous excitement. I’m ho9led up in my position in the back of the theater and I am ready for this evening to ROCK!
As with yesterday’s report, we won’t be focusing on the production elements as we typically do with preliminary nights and try to keep this to the results and major events (like any falls, trips, or explosive bunnies).
After opening number and introductions, we moved very quickly into the announcement of finalists and online voting.
The Online Voting for Teen was Florida; Miss was Kansas.
Then it was on to finalists. All orders here are in the order announced at the venue. They are random, but they are the order the ladies will compete in for the balance of the evening.
Miss Teen International 2010 Top Ten
  1. Minnesota
  2. California
  3. Tennessee
  4. South Carolina
  5. East Coast
  6. Arkansas
  7. Florida
  8. Missouri
  9. Pennsylvania
  10. Texas
Miss International 2010 Top Ten
  1. Texas
  2. Oklahoma
  3. Alabama
  4. North Carolina
  5. Tennessee
  6. California
  7. Maryland
  8. Virginia
  9. Arkansas
  10. District of Columbia
There were, as always, a number of people that made for the door right after the announcement of Top Ten. That’s really a shame, folks. C’mon, folks. Behave like adults. I heard quite a bit of noise in the corridor outside while Jessica Byington, Miss Teen International 2009 was interviewed by Joanne onstage. By the time Erin Golden, Miss International 2009, was onstage, it seemed to settle down. Erin introduced her fiancé from the stage and told everyone to expect her to compete again as a Mrs. International contestant.
On stage question started with Teens. Each was asked a warm up, chatter question, asked about their platform, and a platform related follow up question. This system is very strict with the 30 second time limit…each second over costs a point per second. From what I saw, the ladies kept to the limits. After a tune by Ryan Greenawalt (http://www.ryangreenawalt.com/ ), the Miss contestants took their turn with the on stage question competition.
They followed with the Fun Fashion competition; first for Teens and next for the Miss division. I do admit I’m surprised at some of the outfits that appear to show more than the Fitness competition but apparently that is the new direction. Those of you intending to compete next year, take note. You will want to check Paula Preston’s photos and the DVD’s to see what they were wearing. (Paula’s website is http://www.paulapreston.com/ ) Those (myself, included) that thought an all woman judging panel would result in a more conservative finalist panel were mistaken.
Intermission was followed by the Teen Fitness competition, followed by the Miss division. Kyle Gordon followed that up with a wonderful rendition of “Firefly.” This was followed by the Evening Gown competition. Again, Teens were followed by the Miss division.
It was time for a few production numbers while scores were tabulated…including a tribute to the King of Pop, Michael Jackson.
Jessica Byington, Miss Teen International 2009, and Erin Golden, Miss International 2009, took their final walks. They walked during a prerecorded speech by the titleholder was played. They kept the goodbyes to a decent length of time as opposed to some of the locals and state pageants I’ve witnessed where these final words can literally go on for ten to fifteen minutes. I didn’t time them, but I think they kept them under three minutes. Again, directors please take note.
It was time for final results. The auditorium went dead silent with a funny hum of activity under it all. We all awaited the final results with anticipation and drama.
Final Results for Miss Teen International 2010
  • 4th Runner Up: Tennessee
  • 3rd Runner Up: Texas
  • 2nd Runner Up: Arkansas
  • 1st Runner Up:  Pennsylvania
…and your new Miss Teen International 2010, from the Eastern States, Julianna McKee
