Subject: Is talent more important than looks and platform (for teens)?

Another question: some posts emphasize interview skills for "miss" but the people who watch Miss America are mostly "blue color" and lower to middle middle class people who care more about how a girl looks in a swim suit and whether her talent is interesting to watch. Platforms and brains are just "cherries on top", but I doubt that it is contestanrs's intellect that brings money to this organization. Some girls are pretty and smart but not telegenic or just don't have a TV - worthy talent. Most likely they are never going to win. National organization makes money from commercial and I am sure that their audience would be significantly reduced if they preferred interview skills to talent and looks.

Guess it depends upon the makeup of the judges panel. There needs to be a better mix of women as judges. Will we have 5 men judges next year? Do men judges focus on different things as judges?
