Although the Miss America pagaent is leaving Atlantic City, Queens of America relax. The Press of Atlantic City reported today (Saturday, 9/17/05) that the famous Miss'd America Pagaent, that always followed the Miss America Pagaent, will go on. The Miss'd America Pagaent is a drag queen beauty pagaent and poplular charity fundraiser. Organizers of Miss'd America announced that its beauty queens will carry on. "We're it, (the only pagaent left in AC)," said pagaent co-producer Gary Hill. "Which is a hoot to begin with. We figured we'd keep the tradition alive." The Miss'd America Pagaent has raised an estimated $250,000 for the AIDS Alliance in the past 13 years. Last year's event alone raised about $18,000. Usually the Miss'd America Pagaent is held outdoors. However, if the Miss America Pagaent takes place in January, as it is rumored to be held, the Miss'd America Pagaent will have to make some adjustments. So, the Miss'd America Pagaent will go on, but the time is still not known. Keep your eyes open for the date.
