Miss Long Beach Gay Pride here.  My new acquaintance, Tintin, has pressed me into service to introduce the evening gown/Q&A section of the Miss Gay Pride Los Angeles competition.  I guess it is because he assumed I would know something about this kind of shenanigans, which I do.  In this part of the contest, they decided, for reasons of time, to combine the evening gown competition with that most embarassing of activities - Q&A, when the judges ask you questions and you stumble for an answer.  Believe me, not something you would wish on your worst enemy.
So, anyway, on with the show.

So how did they all handle the microphone (since  we cannot provide audio of their answers to questions)?

Leslie seems initially nonplussed and Rosco astonished by her answer

Some girls seem quite poised in their replies

Others seem at a loss for words

Poised

Forgot the mike

Poised
Karina won't give her the mike

Relieved that the Q&A is over
