Written by What does it take be a beauty queen? You do not need to be a size 2, or skinny to be a beauty queen. The world should change its standards about beauty. The world should look at beauty in a holistic perspective as we all come in different sizes, shapes and colors. Everyone has an innate beauty inside of us. All we need is to unleash and develop 
them. Each one of us has our own talents and abilities that others do not have. Beauty can never be measured by our body size or physique, but by the kind of person inside of us. A woman is beautiful by her talents or abilities, but most importantly by her character.
Plus Pageantry is the pioneer and only source dedicated exclusively for plus size women interested in pageantry. It provides an online directory of plus size pageants. You can also find in the site message board, features and links providing information toward plus size women who have won beauty pageants, preparing to compete in one, as well as those that are simply finding for information.
Ms. Chenese Lewis, the first woman to be crowned as Miss Plus America 2003 is the creator and Chief Executive Officer of Plus Pageantry. She cites “Growing up many little girls dream of being a beauty queen, but their dreams are shattered by watching televised pageants and they realize that they don’t fit the popular ideal of what a beauty queen is considered to be. What many plus-size women don’t realize is that there is hope and there are many opportunities available for those wanting to be a beauty queen but don’t have the ‘perfect’ body according to society standards.”
She created the Plus Pageantry to build awareness and gives exposure to plus size women in pageantry, which mainstream media networks and facilities gives less or no recognition at all.
If you are an aspirant beauty queen, go for it. You have all the right to be a beauty queen, just believe in yourself. If others have made it, you can make it too. So…. start your journey to becoming a beauty queen, and explore Plus Pageantry now.
