If you’re in a bad mood, then reading our list of 15 funny beauty pageant questions will certainly cheer you up.
Beauty pageants are being held all across the world. No matter what we think about them, most people watch beauty pageants even if they don’t like them. Why is that? Well, I guess that we just have this strange need to compare ourselves to everybody else. Who is prettier than who, who is smarter than who…It goes on and on, and it seems as if it isn’t even our choice because we are somehow involved in all that from the moment we are born. In fact, we love beauty pageants so much that we even organize beauty pageants for babies and toddlers only where we decide which child is the prettiest. I don’t know about you, but I believe all children are beautiful so this may be pointless.

So why do we like beauty pageants? Perhaps it has to do something with our desire to define everything so we rate the contestants according to their physical appearance which may be pretty harsh. Some people are concerned about what message do beauty pageants send to young girls everywhere. Girls obsess about their weight and appearance anyway, so these competitions based on looks may emphasize that issue. We seek some sort of perfection which, in my opinion, is a very subjective thing, and cannot be defined anyway.
But whatever my opinion may be on this matter, I must admit that there is more to beauty pageants that simply walking around in bikinis looking fabulous. Believe it or not, it takes more than beauty to become a beauty queen. The contestants need to look amazing, yes, but there is more to it. They need to show that they are more than beautiful, that they think and engage in various projects, and they need to show that they have an opinion about certain things. They have an opportunity to show all that in the interview portion of beauty pageants, where they are asked some casual questions, but also some very serious ones too.
We wrote about this topic in our previous list of 10 Political Pageant Interview Questions, where we presented some of the complex questions that contestants are faced with. They are often asked to comment current events on the political stage and express their opinion about various things. Although earlier, their personal political beliefs could remain private, that’s no longer the rule so the contestants need to be careful what they say. This part is not very easy for the potential beauty queens because they need to give answers which will not cause anyone to judge them or dislike them. They use this opportunity to get some applause and win the audience.
At times, these questions are very amusing, and some answers become so popular that everyone is talking about them the next day. This isn’t always a positive thing though since the answers can be hilarious. It’s no surprise considering how the judges can come up with some pretty confusing questions that the contestants couldn’t prepare for. But hey, we all make mistakes and we forget about it soon anyway. Well, we forget about it after it goes viral and everybody sees it. One such situation happened at the beauty pageant back in 2007 when Miss Carolina gave her famous answer which you can hear on YouTube.
Today, we decided to deal with that less serious side of beauty pageants so we found funny questions that are often asked during the interviews. We read a lot of Beauty Pageant Questions, and we also visited Storify to find funny to present to you. Some of the questions surprised us by how weird they are, some were super serious and complex, while others were very amusing. Now, you may notice that a lot of questions in the list are related to food but that is a coincidence (although food is my favorite pass time). All jokes aside, check out our list of 15 funny beauty pageant questions.
