Did you know that many pageant titleholder's and winners do not receive their rightful prizes, publicity, support, nor scholarships from the pageant organization or system they have paid money to in order to enter,compete and/or win?


It happens every year. Women, men, boys and girls enter pageants, compete in pageants; and the pageant organization does not uphold their written and verbal obligations to the contestants nor titleholders. They recruit contestants and sponsors for money; and the contestants, sponsors, nor titleholders (winners) never receive what they are promised or entitled to.

In this recruitment and solicitation, these systems and organizations send out and publicize false advertisement in order to make themselves look good; stating an alleged purpose and pretense as to their existence, while all along do not have the resources, staff, nor funding to back it up.

Titleholder's go unpublicized, unsupported and unrecognized unless they take it upon themselves to do so; this also includes proper honor and implementation of their platforms.

The Pageant Awareness U.S.A® Association, provides a Mail-In and Online Forum, a Regional Power Support Group Coalition, an International Power Support Group Coalition, and a new Online Group. These public services allow people across the United States and internationally to voice their experiences with pageants that they have participated in, competed in, sponsored, or been a part of in any way; with facts, not opinions. The Pageant Awareness U.S.A goal is to keep legit pageant systems and organizations going strong, and to keep pageant scams out of business. Our hardworking Volunteer Staff, Legal Team, Supporters and Members ensure this focus is powerfully implemented. The Association will grow to gain thousands to millions of Members; and will continue to aid in spreading the word non-stop about illegitimate pageant organizations, systems, and companies across America and beyond. Pageant Awareness U.S.A Association assists in stopping them from abusing and scamming people and pageantry as a whole by also governing the actions of, and procedures in which pageants do business. And by keeping file on and reporting pageant Director's behaviors in pageantry with applicant's, sponsors, titleholder's, contestants, winners, as well as with state and government officials.

Pageantry is one of the oldest and largest industries in world. Pageant scams and other illegal behaviors in the pageantry business are issues that are unfortunately wide spread, and are allot of times pushed under the rug because of the glitz, glamour and educational support that most pageants are known for. There are many pageant organizations and pageant systems that abide by pageant, state and federal laws, pageant rules and ethics; yet and still there are many who do not. The Pageant Awareness U.S.A services are much needed and way past due.

When and if it is ever received...Sponsors, Contestants and Titleholder's are strung along for months, sometimes years without receiving what they are promised or entitled to by the pageant Director(s), organization or pageant system. This includes publicity, prizes, scholarships, photoshoots, crowns, sashes, media coverage, appearances, monies, bookings, taxable receipts, sponsorship reimbursements, and other facets. Many of these pageant organizations and systems disappear for a year or two or more, then re-surface repeating these illegal behaviors again and again.

Pageant systems that are currently committing these tactics include:

1) Miss Mahogany USA Pageant/ Mahogany Scholarship Foundation / Mahogany Foundation

2) Miss Black Chicago Pageant/Baby Girl Productions

3) Miss Black USA Pageant/ Miss Black USA Organization

4) Miss Black Illinois USA Pageant/ Miss Black Ilinois USA Scholarship Organization/ Miss Black Illinois USA Organization

And many, many more.......


Pageant Awareness U.S.A Association educates the public on a powerful fact: You can make a difference and put an end to these illegal tactics and abuses. Help millions of people just like you who have been mis-used, and scammed by pageant organizations and pageant systems nationwide. Talking amongst friends and relatives about it is one thing, actually doing something about it is another.
