    The War on Beauty: Can Pageants Be Saved?

    Pageantry is in crisis. Miss Universe is tangled in financial chaos. Miss USA is losing trust by the day. Miss America has faded into irrelevance. And contestants? They see it. They feel it. They're tired of pretending everything's fine. For five years, Life After the Crown has been silent. But in this episode, I'm breaking that silence with a hard truth: if pageantry is going to matter again, it needs courage. It needs vision. It needs leaders who are willing to stop waiting and start leading. In this no-holds-barred conversation, I expose the cultural rot, the corruption, and the cowardice holding pageantry back — and I lay out why beauty, dignity, and truth are still worth fighting for. You may agree with me. You may disagree. And that's fine. But if we don't start this conversation now, there won't be anything left to save. This isn't just a commentary. It's a rallying cry. Because pageantry once inspired a nation — and it can again.
