The main questions of the contest interview

Competing in a contest is stressful enough, and then there’s the question and answer portion of the competition. You’ve spent an incredible amount of hours preparing. You know you have the perfect dress, the perfect hair, and a perfect body ready for the pageant. Contest day has come and you know you’ve done everything you can to look your best. And then there is the question and answer part …

There are many reasons why beauty pageant questions generate so much fear and anxiety around them. You have to expect the unexpected! Many girls train for years to be fully prepared to answer any question that comes their way in the contest interview. The last thing you’ll want to do is kick some ass at the start of the contest only to completely crush it with your NERVOUS, stuttering response. We all remember what happened to Miss South Carolina like it was yesterday.

This is our biggest fear when we go on stage! One of the biggest secrets of beauty pageants is that you have to prepare for all the possible interview questions, so that this doesn’t happen to you. Here is a list of several of the most frequently asked questions about beauty pageants.
