    Honestly, you all should go see a collegiate bollywood dance competition. There's collegiate teams all across the nation, and its growing still, and if you want more information on them PM me. Those dances are such a blend of creativity and talent. One of the criteria they are judged on is originality, so you see a lot of new choreography with just a touch of stunting. It's so amazing seeing the "bollywood-ness" without the assistance of camera tricks and whatnot.

    @Jeenzy: Many of these intercollegiate competition dance numbers are on youtube as well. If anyone is interested in watching Canadian team numbers, search for "SAA" or "WICSA" and a list of different universities should show up.

    I recently started taking Bollywood and Bhangra dance classes and I feel like SUCH a bandwagon poseur, but damn it, those classes are amazingly fun. So yeah, thank you India, as Alanis would say.

    I have enjoyed all the Bollywood dancing on SYTYCD. And I really hadn't seen Bollywood style dancing until I saw it on tv.

    Wasn't Leigh Bowery somehow involved in the early incarnations of this pagent? I seem to recall running across details of it when I was researching Bowery costumes.

    I love the idea of this pageant, but blondes with big tits can't have poise, style, or dignity?
    I think I am just oversensitive, but as a naturally bosomy girl, I get a little offended at the negative comments directed towards women with large breasts.

    Ahhh! I go to this every year! My mum was a contestant in the late 70s; she dressed in drag in kind of a Houdini/Chaplin type outfit with loads of random bits of fur and feathers everywhere.

    This is also refreshingly earnest and cutting-edge. People with interesting, unique ideas are possessed with the talent and wherewithal to do so? And they get recognition for it? Without being 23, orange-tanned, poreless, bleach-toothed, and covered in tattered blonde extensions? I cannot tell you how much my Inner Artistic Curmudgeon is squee'ing.

    Oh god, there are some NSFW pics on the official site. (Either that or I saw something that looked NSFW and I closed the browser as fast as I could.)


    If the theme this years is "Elements", I'd like to compete in a Periodic Table sandwich board, please. NO SERIOUSLY, THIS SOUNDS FUCKING AWESOME.

    I think that Alternative Miss World and Susan Boyle should combine forces to save the world. And it should be made into a comic book, then a movie.
