Contestants for pageant sought
The nationally televised Mrs. America Pageant is seeking representatives
from the Pecos area to compete for the title of Mrs. Texas America 2000.
The winner of the state pageant will go on to compete for the title of
Mrs. America.
The Mrs. Texas America Pageant will take place May 26-28, 2000, at the
beautiful Sheraton Brookhollow Hotel in Houston. The contestants will compete
in evening gown, swimsuit, and personal interview. Mrs. Texas America 2000
will go on to take part in the nationally-televised Mrs. America Pageant
in September.
Bonnie Productions, producers of Mrs. Texas, Mrs. Arizona and Mrs. Utah
America Pageants, has experienced significant success in the pageant industry.
Mrs. Utah 1999, Starla Stanley, was crowned Mrs. America 1999 and went
on to win the Mrs. World crown in December.
The Mrs. America program has only one purpose: to celebrate the beauty
of America's married women. Mrs. Texas contestants do not necessarily fit
any particular mold. They represent an incredible variety of backgrounds,
lifestyles and personal interests. Contestants range in age from 23 to
72 years.
Women interested in competing for the title of Mrs. Texas 2000 are encouraged
to contact Bonnie Productions at (480)-563-4216, or visit their website
at www.mrstexasamerica.net.
