Last night's episode of Toddlers & Tiaras really illuminated why child beauty pageants might not be the best environment for young girls.
1.) These pants.
2.) Bad logic exhibited by the people in charge. Like this pageant director, who said of the industry, "If Donald Trump believes in it, then it's gotta be good." Then how does that explain his hair?
3.) May lead to deceiving MySpace photos.
4.) Six-year-olds need makeup on to feel pretty.

5.) This woman is in charge of makeup.
G/O Media may get a commission
6.) Five-year-olds are forced to grow up too fast.
7.) Participants become unrecognizable.
8.) Girls are expected to act sexy before they are even potty-trained.
9.) Lax grammar.
10.) Delusions of grandeur.

Isabella was great- didn't y'all love the "I'm WEIRD!!!" Me too, honey.
Her mom seemed to have her head on pretty straight- and she seemed to take an honest delight in her charming, remarkable, smart weird kid.
One of the best parts was Isabella announcing her equally fabulous brother on air guitar live from Bunk Bed Theater. He rocked it OUT. I would totally TIVO a reality show featuring just these two kids doing whatever they do all day while their mother beams in the background.
