World Class Beauty Queens: Please tell us about yourself. My name is Em, I am a business woman, and Mother, My husband and I care for children and adults with special needs, so I run my business from home. I have a house full of boys so I enjoy making time for my girlfriends. I work very closely with the charity Share the Dignity and am often busy collecting period products for people who menstruate, experiencing period poverty. World Class Beauty Queens: Please tell us about your education.
I went through the public school system in England and then on to college, studying Theatre Studies and English. However, my real education started after schooling finished and whilst experiencing the world around me. In my 20’s I received a higher diploma with honours in Feline Care and Behaviour, and Animal Behaviour and Psychology. I have since completed my Make-Up Certificate with SeneGence International, and have taken many short courses and workshops in business.
World Class Beauty Queens: What does women Empowerment means to you?
This is a subject close to my heart, to me it means women holding each other up, and inspiring each other every day to be more and do better. Working as a team and helping each other to navigate our world.
World Class Beauty Queens: Tell us about your pageant history.
My Pageant history is a very recent one, I competed in the Premier Elite System in January 2021 for the first time ever, and won!
World Class Beauty Queens: What inspired you to do your first pageant?
I was invited to watch the 2020 Premier Elite Pageant, I attended thinking I knew what it was all about…. Girls just looking beautiful and fake (I was so wrong) I was able to see that actually the pageant is about celebrating women and girls, and giving them an opportunity to show they are more than just beautiful, how could I not want to be a part of that, so I entered the next year
World Class Beauty Queens: Why did you choose to compete for your current title?
As an older competitor I wanted to show other women my age that even though you might be a mum during the day, you can be a princess too! Premier Elite does not have an age restriction on the MS Category, therefore I was able to compete, whereas I might have been too old for other systems.
World Class Beauty Queens: To those unfamiliar with your pageant system please tell us what is it about?
Premier Elite Pageants aligns with me personally in the fact that they encourage the competitors to show their inner Goddesses and not just their outer beauty. I like the fact that this system does not have a swimwear category therefore the women and girls do not feel objectified, or self-conscious if they have anybody image issues.
World Class Beauty Queens: What are you being judged on during the competition?
I am being judged on etiquette, how I interact with the other competitors, how I present in each of the areas I compete in, (presentation, intellect, and wit), time management, ability to be coached, decorum, and how well I present in an age-appropriate way.
World Class Beauty Queens: Tell us about your experience during the competition.
I felt so empowered during my competition, to begin with I was super nervous until I met all the other girls and developed friendships with them. What an amazing sisterhood I am now privileged to be a member of.
World Class Beauty Queens: Tell us about your platform or what cause do you volunteer for.
My passion is female empowerment therefore choosing my platform was easy. I already worked closely with Share the Dignity who are a charity that collects and distributes period products to those experiencing period poverty, so for me this was a no-brainer. Twice a year I collect products from my business and other collection points, check they are suitable, clean and new. Then distribute them to local charities who have requested help. A local charity might be a food bank, or a women’s refuge, or a homeless shelter. Once a year we also collect toiletries and handbags for homeless women.
World Class Beauty Queens: What appearances have you done with your title?
I have appeared for my charity, the MSWA charity, Daffodil Day, RU OK day, the opening of a local modelling agency, Promoting a local Escape room business, Plastic Free July, Jeans 4 Genes, Thrift Shop Day, Anzac Day, Tiara Day, Supporting Live Lighted at the Hyde Park Fair, International Women’s Day, and Earth Hour.
World Class Beauty Queens: What are some of your achievements?
I have stepped out of my comfort zone and into my growth zone. I took a group of 2021 competitors through a Make-Up workshop to help them style for their upcoming competitions. World Class Beauty Queens: What makes you stand out from all those other beautiful girls?
I don’t stand out from the other girls, together we shine as one. We have become a superpower in support and connection.
World Class Beauty Queens: Tell us about the moment your name was called out as the winner.
The moment my name was called out I just needed a second to comprehend. I knew I had worked hard for the title but still, I couldn’t believe it. I stood there holding hands with the girl next to me with my eyes closed. It wasn’t until I opened them that I knew it was true.
World Class Beauty Queens: What does it mean to you to be a Beauty Queen?
Being a Beauty Queen has given me the platform to practise what I preach. In my business, and life in general I tell women how to treat themselves, talk to themselves, and hold their heads up high, through beauty and self-care. Now I can physically show them how I am doing the same thing, and I can hold their hand whilst they do the same thing.
World Class Beauty Queens: How did competing in pageants helped your life?
Competing has anchored the belief in myself. When I have a day of self-doubt I can just go and look at my crown and sash and say ‘hey you worked hard for that, and you deserve the sparkles and title’ I have made such good friendships with amazing women and girls that I never would have met unless I competed with them. I am so grateful for this.
World Class Beauty Queens: How did pageants helped your selfesteem and body image?
Seeing girls and women, all shapes, sizes, colours, and ages, seeing their beauty, and not seeing any flaws, they, in turn, saw me the same way. I see my flaws, and they see their own, but we don’t see each others. This made me realise that we are all perfectly imperfect.
World Class Beauty Queens: You are an inspiration to all the girls out there. How does it feel?
It is a privilege and an honour that I take very seriously. I believe that if one is fortunate to achieve this position then they must be a positive role model. I do feel blessed, and proud.
World Class Beauty Queens: What is your on stage strategy to win the judges over?
Let your personality shine, imagine that the judges are there just to see you win, be confident in the fact that they actually are there for this purpose, not to pull you apart. Once you push through the nerves, enjoy the moment because that will speak more to the judges than any dress or pair of earrings that you wear.
World Class Beauty Queens: How did you prepare for your competition?
I studied the Systems handbook to make sure I was compliant in all areas. With this done I was confident that I would be able to compete correctly.
World Class Beauty Queens: What are your tips for learning better pageant walk?
Attend a pageant workshop if there is one available to you, I had no idea how to walk or pose so this for me was a brilliant experience. I knew what to expect on the night and had the confidence I knew what to do. Relax and take on board any constructive criticism you may receive to better your walk. Wear your pageant shoes in well before the event!
World Class Beauty Queens: What are your tips for choosing right pageant dress?
Study what is expected of your dress in the guide given to you by the system, one may be told that hi-low dresses are not acceptable for example. Make sure your dress is age-appropriate, and that it is tailored. Do not choose a dress that requires you to hold it up as you walk. Choose a dress that compliments your body shape. Choose a dress that you feel amazing in.
World Class Beauty Queens: What are your tips for winning interview?
Go in with the attitude that the judges are hanging on your every word, and that you are the most amazing and interesting person that they have ever met. The interview is very much about mindset. Believe in everything that you say to them and you will come across as confident.
World Class Beauty Queens: What is one mistake that you've done during competing you wish you could redo and fix it?
During my talent, I chose to sing a slow ballad, although I executed it perfectly it didn’t allow me to really display much showmanship. I would choose a more upbeat song so that I could use the stage more.
World Class Beauty Queens: What other mistakes are made by girls during the contest?
I have seen girls wearing too much Make-Up. In fact, this is why I decided to offer my time in a Make-Up workshop to help upcoming competitors. Make-Up needs to be age-appropriate – not dance make-up. I have seen girls who have not tried on their costumes and dresses before the event and therefore the dresses do not fit well, and dress malfunctions are more common. I have also seen girls wear brand new shoes and have blisters by the end of the night because their shoes were not worn in.
World Class Beauty Queens: Any modeling or acting experience?
I trained at School, and then College in Theatre Studies and Drama, and have performed in amateur theatre. I have modelled since I was 16, and I also am a Pin-Up model.
World Class Beauty Queens: What are your plans for 2021/22 as a Queen?
This year has gone by in a whirlwind as the reigning Queens have been so busy with appearances and we have more to come. I plan to enjoy every opportunity that is presented to me, support the competitors of 2022, and be a good role model.
World Class Beauty Queens: What kind of legacy do you want to leave behind?
I want to be known as the girl who empowered all the other girls. I hope to be known as the perfect ambassador for Premier Elite Pageants, Someone who other girls can emanate. Founder & Managing Director: Renata Grandao www.premierelitepageants.com
