And the tiara goes to...

Beauty pageant competitions take commitment Journalism sophomore Carly Campo was crowned Miss Washington County in her home state of Idaho last summer. /issues/arts/698229
Wearing a pageant crown requires more than balancing a tiara on perfectly placed hair. Some people spend a few hours watching televised beauty pageants, but competing beauty queens like ASU student Hilary Griffith prepare for months.

"Fulfilling my year of service as Miss Arizona is a full-time job," says Griffith, who won her title in June 2006.

A self-described tomboy growing up, Griffith, who practices putting on her makeup daily, says she never dreamed she would be Miss Arizona at age 20.

A broadcast journalism senior, Griffith would have graduated in May 2006. Instead, she is taking a year off to compete in the Miss America pageant. The pageant will be held at the Aladdin casino in Las Vegas from Jan. 25 through 29, 2007. It will air on the Country Music Television on the last day of the competition.
