amy polumbo-my two cents

Miss New Jersey partied hard in college and posed for some rather silly pictures. Stop the presses. Really, I mean stop it. When Penthouse published the Vanessa Williams photos, which featured a bit of lesbian bondage and were shot with grainy black and white film , it pretty much launched Vanessa’s career. It also sparked a number of debates as to the relevance of Miss American and beauty pageants in general. Amy Polimbo’s pictures are pretty tame. There are not stories of her getting into lip locks with other girls, like the last Miss Whatever that was in a scandal. The most famous beauty pageant contestant in history is Jonbenet Ramsey. I have always found bizarre that people want to dress their kids up like this. Of course, the grown up pageants want to undress them and have them strut in a bikini and high heels. Are there any good stories about beauty pageants?
I was going to post one of the photos, but they were all just silly. Especially the bit where they put the black tape across the eyes of the other people pictured like it’s a 1940’s tabloid. There really should be a law against phones with built in cameras.
So yeah, this is pointless and unimportant. But in the end, isn’t everything?
