Answer
One of the best things to do when competing in a beauty contest is to study the previous winners, if possible. From studying them, you can see how they looked, what they wore and what they did in the talent competition. This will give you an idea of what they judges are looking for.
The best thing is to be able to talk to the winner or even someone who has competed. You may be able to learn some valuable information on what to look for and what is important.
In the higher levels of beauty contests, participants often hire special beauty-contest coaches to guide them. You would think that it is only good looks and talent, but when the competition is strong, those that want to win will use means to give them an edge.

If you are going to deliver a speech, select a subject that is close to your heart and that is of interest to others. When you show you care about something dearly and want to help change the world, it can be an effective speech.
The most important thing about your speech is to practice it many times. Find out the time limit is on the speech and time yourself to make sure you don't go over the limit. Practice in front of friends, family and anywhere you can so that you are sure and confident of yourself. See our section on Speaking at:

I hope these ideas help and that you will do well in the contest. Whether you win or not, it is a great experience and should be fun.
Best wishes and let me know how it turns out.
