Ready for Season 2 of Little Miss Perfect

By Michael Galanes, Pageant Director
Little Miss Perfect, Season 1, was all that I hoped for, maybe more or maybe less at times, but that's show business! In all honesty, pageants like Little Miss Perfect and all that these events entail truly is my life! I think as outsiders look in to the life of a pageant director, they only see the glitz, glamour and showy stage performances, but there is so much more than the actual pageant. At my pageant office, located in Fort Lauderdale, Fla., it is not all fun and games and lip gloss is not always worn, you see! I work close to 70 hours a week. My job description includes securing venues, recruiting contestants, solidifying prize packages, finding qualified judges, creating pageant paperwork, maintaining websites, entertaining all of the questions via telephone and e-mail, training pageant contestants from all over the United States, working with hotels to make certain the pageants run as smoothly as possible, creating pageant schedules, ordering crowns, banners, trophies, booking appearances for all of my queens, preparing my queens for the next level of competition, visiting gown stores and creating the perfect wardrobes, photo shoots, working out, hair and make-up lessons and the list goes on! But, this is my life and I would have it no other way!

I am ready for Season 2 and know that the little girls are as impressive and beautiful as ever! The Moms are compelling, the coaches, judges, pageant staff, and everyone else involved in every episode of Little Miss Perfect do make great TV! More importantly, the show is an honest and real documentary of pageants, the little girls and Moms who pursue them, the lessons learned, while showcasing the thrill of victory and sometimes the agony of defeat. It is a wild ride!

We are all put on this earth for a very specific reason and one of my purposes in life is to educate and enlighten the American public on the benefits of pageantry! At least 2 times a day, I have a conversation with someone about pageants, NOTHING PHASES ME! I always encourage these individuals to attend one of my events and I guarantee their viewpoints will change in a very positive direction!

These little girls are gaining important life lessons, they are making friends, spending time with family, working on confidence, learning to win and loose in a gracious fashion, and most importantly having the times of their lives. Who doesn't want to be a princess for a day anyway?

My involvement with pageants almost spans 20 years! I have attended more graduations, performances, weddings, parties, parades, BROADWAY shows, movies, modeling gigs, shopping sprees, vacations, galas, and pageants than I care to count! Let's just say, these pageants are my life and I thank you for supporting Little Miss Perfect...just one of my favorite pageant memories! The Little Miss Perfect Pageant...where all your dreams come true, that is the truth!

Words of wisdom from the Perfect Pageant Director: Sparkle your way through life and never underestimate the power of a smile, a good hair and make-up artist, and the decadence of rhinestones GALORE!
