Miss American Rose Day – October 20, 2021
Celebrated on October 20, Miss American Rose Day is associated with the Miss American Rose pageant. The competition celebrates American women of all ages, and their education, accomplishments, skills, social service, and professional careers. This day is an extension of the pageant. We are reminded to appreciate ourselves and the women in our lives, with their unique talents and achievements. Life gets hard, and on some bad days, we forget to be kind to ourselves. Miss American Rose Day is a special occasion for women to share and show love for themselves and for one another.
HISTORY OF MISS AMERICAN ROSE DAY
A beauty pageant is an event (or series of events) where various women compete against one another and showcase their talents. Traditionally, pageants were judged based on their physical attributes; now, the criteria for evaluation have extended to personality, talent, social work, intelligence, and values.
In 1839, Archibald Montgomerie, the 11th Earl of Eglinton, organized a beauty pageant, as part of the Eglinton Tournament. The pageant was a re-enactment of a medieval joust that had happened in Scotland. Georgiana Seymour, the Duchess of Somerset, won the pageant and claimed the title ‘Queen of Beauty.’
An entertainer named Phineas Taylor Barnum pioneered the first modern American pageant in the year 1854. Unfortunately, the pageant was abruptly shut down due to public protest, hence evaluation was done by substituting daguerreotypes — images of the contestants on silvered copper plates.
In 1921, the Atlantic City’s Inter-City Beauty Contest was held, which became very popular. The origin of the current beauty pageants can be traced back to this. It was held to capture the attention of summer tourists and get them to stay in town even after Labor Day. The winner in this pageantry received the title of ‘Miss America.’ And the local newsman, Herb Test, made history by having the honor of offering this title to Margaret Gorman, the first-ever Miss America.
The pageantry triggered many controversies, and its popularity witnessed a decline. In 1935, producer Lenora Slaughter resurrected the pageant by bringing Hollywood into the picture. The winner would henceforth be given screen tests and opportunities to star in films or shows, or both. Lenora Slaughter also decided to add a college scholarship valued at $5,000 to the winner. The Atlantic City’s Inter-City Beauty Contest has expanded, grown in popularity, and evolved into the Miss America, Miss World, and Miss Universe that we know today.
