A Beauty Pageant or Beauty Contest is a competition that mainly focuses on the physical beauty of its contestants. The Contestants often incorporate personality talent and answers to judges.

The First modern pageant was staged by P.T Barnum in 1854, but his beauty contest was closed down by public protest. He previously also held dog, baby and bird beauty contests.

Modern beauty pageants we know them today are traceable to the Miss American beauty pageant, which was first held in Atlantic City in 1921 under the title inter-city beauty contest.

Since then, beauty pageants have generally gained acceptance in most societies leading to the emergence of several local, international and international pageants across the World.

Despite the numerous types of Pageants that we have today, the secrets of winning any of them remains the same. The principles required to win a local pageant are the same for an international pageant. This means that every aspiring beauty Queen must be well groomed and acquainted with these winning principles that have been applied by past and present title holders to achieve their dreams.

These principles are the basic required and demanded by both audience and judges alike by any head that would dare to wear the Crown. The essence of most beauty pageants is to celebrate the totality of the beauty of a woman. This however goes beyond looks to project such qualities as intelligence, confidence, poise, charity, charm among others.

Majority of beauty queens use their offices to get involved with NGOs or individually established pet projects during the course of their reign.
