Will This Frugal Mother’s $9 Pageant Dress Wow The Judges? | Toddlers & Tiaras 

What angers me is they care about their looks only.

@@Straw_berri3 yeah but thats the whole point of certain parts of the pageants. There are other parts of the pageants that judge based on talents and other things too.

kaileeemily they are judging kids

@@mojoyogi5414 Yeah, I know, I'm not really for child pageants with how they are, like I think if they didn't have most of the kids fake tanning & wearing pounds of makeup & instead just had them just wearing nice, cute clothes n doing their hair n stuff it would be a lot better, & if there was an age limit like you had to be like 9 or older to compete, but yeah some little girls really love the pageants like this girl in this video, she loves it and I'm really happy that her mom doesn't make her fake tan and put on all that damn makeup & doesn't force her to do the pageants, how they do it is really wholesome and you can tell they really have a lot of fun and its a great way for them to spend time together. & I don't see why its a problem that they're judging kids, like there's other activities where kids get judged on things lol. It's like a competition, & there's tons of different types of competitions for kids, & this one is a beauty & talent competition lol. & one thing I do love about these pageants is it doesn't just give all the kids those dumb participation trophies n crap, it gives the kids an opportunity to actually try to win something instead of just being like, "oh everyone's a winner!" like a lot of childrens sports and stuff do. It teaches an important lesson to give them an opportunity to win some and and to lose some cuz that's how life works.

& for the original comment, I do agree with that like she is a kid chill out lol

yes! and because the mother is mature and well adjusted her child is too. Alessondra isnt bratty or screaming like i see in other pageant girl clips.

She also doesn’t bleach her teeth! 😂

I'm not a fan of kids pageants, but I can certainly appreciate this woman's attitude. She reminds me of a "dance mom"(an actual dance mom and not that crap on tv) or "Soccer mom" . Her kid likes to do something so she supports her but doesn't go nuts or overbearing with that support.

Jessella Friends k

Indeed

Definitely

Yes she would do great in the natural ones with out the judges that want all that fake stuff

Putting a child in a pageant make lose all respect for every mom who does that . It’s a horrible culture. This mom might be better that the others, but no model mom, that’s for sure😅🙄

@@malina1239 nothing wrong with pageants as long as the girls (or boys) are having fun doing ir

@@lailahdlc yep

I’ve never done a pagent though if were I’d only want to do one based on my natural beauty.

@@nerdgeekcosplay909 Alane has taken Alessondra to natural beauty pageants, which is what the mother/daughter duo specialized in. They didn't want to falsify Alessondra's inner beauty. So, we learned that natural beauty pageants are more sane than glitz pageants.

Natural is the way to go!☮️♥️😃

@Ivana Bunny9 I'm sure it's probably just an error in your typing, but the mother references an $1,800 dress, not $18,000!!!

Tiffany Fudala she said eighteen thousand =18,000 This is eighteen hundred=1,800

HannahA why did u read chickens in the first quote 😂

@@emilyphillips9661 i did too! i re read it back to check i'd spelt it right and i read it as chickens the first time! pahaha

You wanna be natural, dont look like a robot like all the other girls do

I don’t my mum says my eyelashes are really long

I love this

I thought it was a beautiful dress. Much more suitable for a child than the short ones they usually wear. The fact that her mother refurbished her own wedding dress for the hoop had me amazed, but when she said that they got her gown for only 9 dollars…. Great job, mom Not only should the other pageant moms take notes, but the judges should also I’d like to see one of them try to make such a beautiful outfit with the same things… Oh wait They wouldn’t 😜

@@rebeccapalm2863 I'd say Natural Beauty Pageants are the better choice, Glitz Beauty Pageants have got to go.

If I had seen that dress without being told the price I would have assumed it was at least three to five hundred dollars. It was gorgeous and it looked high quality.

@@jessicaharper6585 Ikkkkrrrr

No kidding. Cheap, high quality dresses can be hard to come by. As for the hem that came undone for whatever....it happens! It wasn't the girl's fault, and the judge was being rude a.f.

@@jessicaharper6585 It might have been before it showed up at a thrift shop.

for real i would have thought that was hundreds of dollars

Mine too it warmed my heart too

Ikr

Same

She said "that's right"

I think fake eyelashes are ugly

True (3×)

Or being forced to do it.

I think some of the kids seem spoiled because they're having so much pressure put on them by adults and they cant really express that frustration yet, so they act petulant

AB Farrow ikr

theyre not spoilt theyre raised wrong and constantly overwhelmed with expectations despite being literally like 8

When she said we don't need fake lashes do we, I was so happy. Teaching her daughter true confidence.

She called her daughter a miracle child that’s enough for me lol. Props to this woman for encouraging her daughters to love themselves for who they are.

read this comment EXACTLY as it happened

4.8k like 😊

Mrs. Vance Gaming no kidding. And they all looks like rats themselves.

They were so horrible

These judges could take some of their own advise before being so cruel to little girls, also the judge could've smiled to encourage Alessondra instead of glaring at the child, geez.

redrela about to say that, all of them are ugly overweight old women!

Didn't see that part till after I read this. They were a holes!! They need to be released back to the pasture where they belong!

You are right

I agree there the bad moms who force her daughters to do it and bleach their teeth and wax the kids eyebrows, the there’s the decent ones who still do it for the money but are less forceful and do want the children to feel sorta beautiful but still also use fake teeth and then there’s the actually good moms who do it to encourage or for the kids and will stop if the child doesn’t want to continue

True

Agreed

Facts. This mother is actually decent and not a karen.

I judge pageants. And unfortunately you have to find discrepancies in each contestant. The parents pay for them to be JUDGED

@@courtneywilliams7869 The parents do pay for that, but at the end of the day they're still kids, and the way that one judge said it was honestly disgusting to me.

Yeah. I think she could have said it nicer. She said it so rude. She's a KID, be nice about it.

@@courtneywilliams7869 that's true, but some of the judges were saying some things that weren't very nice. Yes, they are judges, but the judges were being mean. It's unfair that they are tearing this girle confidence

@@princess_mina1015 unfortunately some are like that. I'm not 🤷🏾‍♀️

Hi pretty lady. How are you doing today?

@@nicolassmith1278 Sir this is a Wendy's Drive Thru 🤨✋

-Alane*

Annabelle Guiditta it’s the mothers name

yes ma’am 👏🏽

@@jordannowings3035 i thought it was spelled "Elaine"? Or is it pronounced with an "A"?

Yes, exactly

And she still looks stunning

But judges didn't seem impressed. What do they expect exactly from these kids. They were not encouraging enough. Instead they were giving looks and being mean. I understand that they are judges but a little encouragement is never wasted. That mom was resourceful conservative and she did everything economically. So this paegent gives a wrong impression that only rich people can make it. I think paegents should not be just about beauty and looks. But instead they should give a strong message w And judges need to show that. For eg. Look at Priyanka Chopra . She is a pagent holder miss world but she is a woman of substance. Strong headed, straight forward and a matured woman who realised her responsibility towards society. These kind of paegents are giving wrong messages. This woman and her daughter were so genuine and true. And their approach towards life is so perfect

Teaching your kids to be effortless

Moonlight Baë I feel like- I think you should teach your kids to do whatever makes them feel happy and comfortable

Ally S THATS WHAT I WAS THINKING

Ally S bahaha

Nothing about that was powerful

Elizabeth Baird wow you have no heart, do you?

ONCE U WEAR THEM U NEVER GO BACK

And Emeralds mom :)

The other moms would have been freaking out when the popper didn't work. And the little girl was quite talented. I've seen a lot of the girls get up there with their moms guiding them to shake their butts and stuff instead actually letting them learn a talent. So weird.

6. Doesn't ridicule and yell at her child when her child messes up.

Ur 4. And 5. Are litterally the same thing 😐

emily cho yeah I know- But eh :’P

And she doesn't tan her child or try to make her look really fake. I was very impressed with how kind and encouraging she was to her daughter too, telling her she's pretty naturally and good at things instead of constant criticism.

PERIODTT

Haley Oxton I know right 😫😫

@@roseagt5902 it's clear the kid enjoys it and that they have a good time doing this together, and that the mom respects and loves the daughter...

Cezanne Silverton well she wants to make her child very comfortable and the child seems to like it

Why does my shirt smell like I have been cooking out

Cezanne Silverton if you watched the show, this specific child actually loves parents and content muted to beg her mom to do them

Ikr, that melted my heart! Most of the other mother's scold thier children then tear down thier self esteem which is disgraceful. But this mother and her two daughters are too pure for this world. Protect them at all costs

Emma AnD I OoP millions lmao

Just because parents spend “millions” of dollars on there child doesn’t make them a bad parent at least they are not neglecting their child or abusing them and no pageants aren’t abuse they are more of a hobby some kids like doing pageants some parents force their child to do it but that doesn’t mean they are a bad parent

No one spends millions of dollars.. only a few k 🙄

I agree. I fell like alot of those kids are forced. This girl seems like she wants to do this. And I love this natural thing!!! I want to see the actual beauty of these children not how much makeup they can wear!

I know eh

agreed

Agreed

But pain is beauty soo I’d get fake

Most other moms force their kids into this but this mom is supportive in her daughters hobby and doesn’t sexualize her

that judges name was Donna Pett...more like Donna Petty

prrrr- they a cat

To think they only needed to list petty, stuck up and inhuman on their resume

I hate her she think that's funny ???!

@quixelle your pfp is cursed...

Omfg hades

Umm yes i love your profile picture 😍😍

Ahh hades with glasses is very good. Yes good. Very good.

Ikkkkkk

But how many hungry children has she actually fed is the question

👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽

Preach girl preach!

Other moms: OMG THAT WAS SOO EASY HOW DID YOU NOT KNOW HOW MY HEAD WILL EXPLODE *Walks away cussing*

+22

She seems really sweet and her babies are happy its very refreshing

Like it

Hannah Haul ‘we don’t do that [fake tanning]’ ikr??? It’s not putting her daughter down like some of the other mums on this show. What an amazing woman 🥰

@@cezza6474 Like all the other mums on the show more like.. she's the only mom I've seen that encourages her daughter's talents over her aesthetics.

Hannah Haul I saw one others that’s it

Muffinsaur no

there should be a "natural look" section in the competition... u know all those other kids would loose XD

Krinh that kinda defeats the purpose of the whole pageant😂🤦🏼‍♀️

@@KrinhMcFluff There are actually pagents without glitz.

@@jordannowings3035 good

Too bad the mom sucks at make up...even natrual makeup can look way better than that if applied better...and the dress looked like it was made for adults not kids...so it kind of looked like a prom dress with a shorter hem to fit a child. It wasnt good looking at all...I think even if it was a ballgown style dress it would have looked better if it was actually made for a child(the torso and bust area was very distracting because it didnt fit right in the front it looked very loose and baggy instead of form fitting. I think the mom has the right idea with her rules and not making her daughter fake but I think she would have done better with a bit more skill in makeup and sewing.

Compared to the others

No pageant moms are actually good. They're exploiting their daughters on a stupid TV show for money.

Lovely Doll Time I was never in pageants but doesn’t mean their all bad. You can’t just say that because all we’ve really seen is the drama that goes on in these videos. Just saying

Yeah

Check out the mom of Kaylee

Who the hell hired these judges? They look like they would be the type to hate kids not love them

@@whitedragoness23 Ikr!!

Me too! I did a high school play when I was in Year 8 (about 13-14 years old), and they thought it was a great idea to get Year 12s (or seniors if you are American) to judge us and coach us. Put me off doing theatre or acting ever again.

she’s 9 years old she doesn’t have to be spending $1,800 dollars on a pageant she isn’t going to care about in 5 years, and if the judges are mad because she doesn’t show her legs, that’s on them 🤷🏼‍♀️

Preach!! 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼✊🏼 Those judges are disgusting for that.

kurts girl *and the kid isn't having a mental breakdown about makeup*

XDDD

kurts girl exactly plus she looks like a little girl.

kurt's girl yes, AND the mom didn't flip out on the poor kid when the popper didn't go off. She tried to make the daughter feel good about the extra cartwheels she did instead. I thought that was sweet

@Hashtag Be yourself not in that way some of the kids look over 15 and higher

Well said!

ikr

What part of the word frugal made you feel like it had negative connotations ? It just means sparing with money.

And she wasn’t also mad at the things that went wrong on stage

I agree but I still don’t agree with parents sending their children to pageants because they are being judged on how beautiful they are and when they don’t win it can really bring down their confidence

Yes, she seems to see the whole thing as a fun hobby for her and her daughter to bond over, which is what it should be considered by EVERYONE.

she treats it like a kids school talent show and i love it.

666th like-

We stan

Exactly, its so refreshing to see, probably the best mother from these pagents ive seen

Wtf tho.. that's how I felt

Hahahahahah 🤣🤣🤣

Lol there not that hard once u get it down but I felt the same

IAWIA true lol. I hate when things don’t go right but we have to put those things in the past lol!

SAMEEEE

yas girl this was a refreshing episode to watch lemme tell you 👏🏽 it made me smile soooo much #gomom!

Ik!!

Mystery Chan Ikr! A mom who teaches her daughter well!

😀😀😀

🤮🤮🤮

And that's on good parenting 😁

@Bree the Bumblebee ... It's The Truth

Jam Buds ikr , why can’t the judges (even if they don’t like the child ) ACT like the child is doing great . It will ruin their self confidence if the are only ever given “the evil eye” .

The judges look like rude bs

Jam Buds we stan her

Meghan We all collectively stan her.

It looked like she was trying to cheer for all the kids, which I think is cool. The judge that did the fart noise and thumbs down over the dress...that was just so unnecessary.

I loved the look she gave her daughter when the popper didn't work like 'oh well' 😉 and the girl finished up the routine like a champ. Another mom would have been floppin around all over the place

J * M $9 for ANY item of clothing in 2019 IS frugal and she didn’t say it in a negative tone. She seemed proud of the fact that she uses her money for important things and charity as opposed to clothing. Plus, how do you know she’ll only wear that dress once? Pretty dress like that can go get a lot of mileage at a wedding reception, formal dinners, dances, events.

She could use it for otger pageants. Or for her younger daughter if she does pageants when she gets older.

I call it normal

Lucja Swietoslawska 9$ for a dress? That’s not normal lol it’s very cheap

ARMYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY 💜💜💜💜💜

KT mcgoogle seen* not scene

@@uwu-nm4fc Lol

My mom was exactly like that when I was 4. Its quite common OFF tv.

Can you help me get into Seventeen thank you

Mizz Murple Ageed

Mizz Murple Like every other kid who does pageants. Don’t believe gat the fuck you see on tv. Every kid that does pageants are good kids. Smdh!!!! It kills me how many people think Toddlers and Tiaras is real.

That is very much true

You call her mature I babysit kids and I'm only 11 years old I babysit a eight-year-old to two year olds and a five-year-old and you called that little bitch mature

@@augustlane7823 the fact that you called a toddler a bitch when your 11? ain't mature at all. many kids are forced to babysit. dipshit

exactly?? like I was thinking "wtf is wrong with her" when that blonde judge insulted her dress.. like chill sis shes 9

To normal people it might look great but to the judges theres always something wrong

The judges look like they came out of bed, put on random clothes and went to the pageant. They look terrible

@@rice8719 they're not the ones being judged though

Kevin Jared let’s compare the judges and the children

Jordyne Hargraves yep, and they would totally blame it for their daughter not winning the highest title. This Mom is fabulous

Ikr

i read this comment before the video and thought you meant the little popper during her home practice bc it went everywhere

Didn't you say that for Jessi Vee's vid?

That’s probably bc she spent all her money on IVF- that’s expensive - especially 2 that are so far apart

Candice Cart she couldn’t have kids, so she had that process many women do. my aunt did, it’s amazing to be a mother. money doesn’t matter when you want to be a mother.

Helena Maleki do you know what IVF means? Your either really young, or fairly old. If it’s the latter you must have been living under a rock, 😆. IVF stands for In Vitro Fertilization. In Vitro means that the females egg was fertilized outside of her body, like in a test tube or Petri dish. That’s why they use to call them test tube babies. If a women wants children but for many reasons can’t right then, she can have her eggs frozen so that when she is ready she still has viable eggs. The process requires the mother to take an injection everyday that helps her body mature more eggs. A women is born with a certain amount of eggs and when they are gone that’s it. When eggs are harvested from the mother or if her eggs are no good, a donors egg, and her husbands sperm (or a donors sperm) can be fertilized by a specialist. The doctor actually inserts the sperm into the eggs. They usually fertilize several eggs. At that point, it is just one single cell called a zygote. Then these zygotes are grown in a lab for a couple of days until the cells have split enough to be considered an embryo. The doctor then checks the embryos to make sure that they are viable and healthy. Then the doctor implants the embryo, usually more than one, into the women’s uterus. The rest of the embryos are frozen for use at a later time. So, if the mother wants more children she has that option to have more embryos implanted. If she decides not to have anymore children she can donate her fertilized eggs to other women or they can be destroyed. The latter is very controversial. So that’s what FROZEN means. I hope this answers any all questions phew 😅🤪.

Exactely

They are judges for a reason. Dont be so sensitive 👏😒.

@@RobloxYesFortniteNo4 Yeah they are judges but that don't mean they can act any way they want in the name of judging them. OP isn't saying the judges did anything wrong by judging they are saying the way they went about judging aka word choice and how rude it was. 🗿

@@RobloxYesFortniteNo4 clearly not since that are ugly fat fucks. If they cant even take their own advice, how can we take their judgements seriously. Also in anything else I've seen judged, judges are more professional. They dont say things like "her dress was bleh and make a face". They clearly state reasoning without being dicks in any other contest. It just makes it worse that its kids.

{_• Łíłäc Drēãmš •_} Doesn’t seems like professional judges it doesn’t take that much to be nice

{_• Łíłäc Drēãmš •_} people are aloud have there own opinions

She also compliments her daughter for being beautiful when she has barely done any makeup! She also tells her that the judges should judge the little girls for being who they are instead of the looks.. Amazing. I love her

still taking her to creepy beauty contests

@@perroprod Yeah but that mom isn't doing any harm.

With abit competition

Sahira Not Syda i like your picture🙃

EXACTLY

Tanya Star thanks i like yours too!

Sahira Not Syda ty🥺😭

have you actually ever met a pageant mom? or are you basing it off of the staged show?

Soré Suni a lot of them are super competitive. To the point where the kid doesn’t even want to do it.

Coco Caramel I used to to pageants when I was younger (I’ve since stopped, my last one was in 2016) and my mum was much like that. She never made me wear anything I didn’t want to wear, she let me pick my dress and she never let me wear things like fake nails or false eyelashes. She wasn’t competitive either. I won a few but the ones I didn’t win she always said the same thing “it doesn’t matter as long as you had fun” which I always did. Something I noticed, at least in the ones that I entered, was that the overly competitive people never seemed to win. The people with enthusiasm but not cockiness tended to do better. I’ve only ever witnessed a few times where this could not be said. Then again, I had never been in a glitz pageant because not only did I not want to, my mum wouldn’t let me enter those ones anyway.

Same

The problem is parents forcing their kids to do these things. You can tell this little girl actually enjoys doing pageants and has fun and so her mother encourages her and helps her out with them. In a lot of cases, the kids were pushed into pageantry because the PARENTS want to win money and gloat about their “beautiful” children winning beauty pageants. You can ALWAYS tell when it’s something the kids want vs something the parents want. I’ve seen the same sort of parents in dance, and those kids were always the most miserable. It’s truly sad. Kids should get to choose their hobbies, not be forced into doing something so that the parents can exploit their children or live their failed dreams out on them.
