De-throned, De-crowned and Don't Care

Miss England was recently dethroned for having a throw-down with Miss Manchester over a body builder, at a bar, in celebration of the porn industry.

Miss California was fired for "breach of contract", claimed she was being discriminated against for hating on gay marriage, sued for religious discrimination, was counter-sued by Miss USA who asked for her fake boobs back, and then was forced to settle when the Miss USA organization pulled out a sex tape of Carrie- alone.

Are the women who enter these competitions simply starved for attention to begin with? Do the outdated standards of the pageant industry set unattainable goals? Are all pageant contestants bat-sh*t loco?

Dethroning used to mean something: shame, political unrest, social change, decapitation. Now it means having to hear about how yet another surgically enhanced, intellectually deficient coed got drunk and sloppy.

Masturbation, beating someone up when they dirty-text your boyfriend and good compromised Christian values are all totally legit topics of discussion. But if I wanted to hear about them, I'd go to a Kappa Kappa Gamma party at the University of Florida, thank you very much.

These are 22 year olds who choose to wear bathingsuits when they're nowhere near the water. Why do we care? And can we please get back to the real celebrities who are going to rehab, filming weird sex tapes and beating up their significant others?

Miss England and Miss Manchester, who was dirty texting with Miss England's boy-toy and suffered the consequences.
