There is no shortage of things to overcome when competing for a title. Many contestants love to perform talent, feel sexy in swimsuit, and have no problem talking with the judges. However, when it comes to on-stage question even seasoned pageant girls can get a little stage fright!
Preparation is key when trying to capture a crown. Doing your homework will put you at ease, but you can’t study for every question under the sun. Here are three things you will need to know for sure no matter what you say:
1) Explanation vs. Justification
Your opinions are never wrong. You can say whatever you would like the judges to know. When you answer, do so with a complete explanation of why you feel that way. Never justify your opinions.
2) Be Switzerland
Although we are entitled to our feelings, be careful not to offend your judges or audience. It’s not possible to please everyone and that should not be your aim. Do not raise yourself by stepping on anyone else in your response.
3) You are Fab!
This is why you should be honest. It’s already hard enough to compete. It makes it even harder when you are juggling a lies so just drop the act. Say what you feel.
When you are on stage, remember that on-stage question just gives people a sneak peek at your interview and your public speaking skills. Answer fully, confidently, and with no reservations. Judges love an honest and bold contestant!
