January 11th, 2012John Kelly’s toughest assignment: Judging the Miss District of Columbia Pageant
- By John Kelly, Published: January 10
Can there be such a thing as too many attractive young women parading in front of you in their swimsuits? Reader, the answer is yes.
In July, I was one of the judges for the Miss District of Columbia Pageant, the winner of which is representing the District on Saturday at the Miss America Pageant in Las Vegas (broadcast at 9 p.m. on ABC).
Sure, it’s an honor to be a judge, but it’s also a responsibility. Teri Galvez, executive director of Miss D.C., kept reminding us that the woman we picked could be — if all went well would be — Miss America.
