Moi treats you tonight to the annual event called the Mr, Miss and Ms Gay Pride Pageant.  The competition will choose the three individuals - one male, one female and one T-girl who will represent Gay Pride in the Los Angeles Gay Pride Parade.  So let moi see if moi has gottne this straight (if straight is an appropriate word for this particualr event) - three competitions for three winners.  What could be easier?

Of course, before the competition begins, there are the preparations and this little page shows you some of the backstage activities.  Moi was vouchsafed an exclusive backstage pass for this event because moi is cute as a button (see right for evidence of this claim).  Moi used moi's access to your advantage.

Filling out forms

Slathering on the moisturizer

Getting zipped up

The quotidien tasks

Aspiring to be a photographer

Sitting around waiting

Getting prepped by the headless assistant

Making poor footwear choices

Oh and yes - POSING with the Emperor and Empress

Speaking of POSING - Janet, Vi and Frandy each take different approaches

And, once ready, Tuesday (left) and Kimmy (right) show us all how to POSE

A picture is worth a thousand words, most of which can be summarized as "Return to the Photopage List, dammit!"
