“Paparazzi & Pop Stars Then and Now”

   
Opening Number - Presentation:

 

Presentation of the contestants should reflect the theme “Paparazzi & Pop Stars Then and Now”.   Contestants must dress like their favorite female Pop Star from the past or the present (excluding LADY GAGA) and recreate the illusion of this female character on stage.  Contestants will be judged on authenticity and general appearance. 

During Presentation, contestants will be asked to introduce themselves, indicate their female Pop Star characters name, explain the reason for their selection, and state one fact about their Pop Star’s Career.  Have fun with your costume, but remember that this is the first time the judges will see you on stage.  

A $50 Cash Prize will be awarded to a contestant for best use of theme.  Winner will be chosen by Cocktail Entertainment, reigning MGHOA, and reigning Miss Gay America.

Formers will be contacted by Coco Montrese regarding the details of their special outfits.
