Winning Beauty

BBC Radio 4
on BBC Radio 4 FM

New series 1/3. A series exploring the world of beauty contests: the tears, the fears and the falsies, and why a woman might think this is a way to the top.
Miss Louisiana, USA. The USA is the mother of the modern pageant and about 3,500 take place there every year. Rosie Goldsmith goes behind the scenes of "Miss
Louisiana", a contest with big hair and big ambitions, set deep in the Bible Belt of the Deep South. The women are already experienced beauty queens and see pageants as a job. If they win, they qualify for "Miss America". Producer Michael Gallagher
