Though typically perceived as a female-oriented competition, male beauty pageants also exist, as do child beauty pageants for youth. The term beauty pageant refers originally to the Big Four beauty pageants: Miss Universe, Miss World, Miss International, and Miss Earth. Hundreds and thousands of beauty contests are held annually, but the Big Four are considered the most prestigious, and are widely covered and broadcast by news media. The earliest formal beauty pageants were held in the 19th century, alt ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
