If this is done right, it is a good thing. Thanks for changing the focus from beauty to communication.

Isn't Allentown "The Queen City"?
Dynamite with a laser beam.
BTW - It should be gender-neutral (I didn't want Rolled to have to wait too long).

Diamondz will have a signup sheet at their bar, but you have to pass the karaoke, and swimsuit portion for them to consider you

Not gender neutral, Queens are men that dress like women. That is how the new york suburb got it's name, it is from all those weirdos...

We are the Queen City no more.

Now we are the "Little Caribbean" of North America.

When I read the title of the article, I just figured that they'd invited American Idol's Adam Lambert to perform.

Based on the women I've seen lumbering around the Allentown fair, the "queen" will be wearing low rise jeans two sizes too small, with a tramp stamp and coin slot peering out of the back; an ill-fitting t-shirt that has "I love my attitude problem" in rhinestones; shoveling down some funnel cake.
ZEXY!

Honestly? I didn't know the borough of Queens in NYC got its name because of the popularity of drag queens there!

That would be fun to have a drag show at the fair! I know plenty of drag entertainers that would do it, I think.
Many drag queen entertainers look like real attractive females. They don't paint their face like typical old fashioned drag queens.
