AND THIS IS JESSICA, AND THEY'RE GOING TO JOIN US. NO, NO, NO, NO, NO. THIS IS HONESTLY THE LAST THING I NEED RIGHT NOW. I'M KIM GRAVEL, THE NUMBER ONE PAGEANT COACH

AN UGLY DUCKLING. AND, HONEY, THAT AIN'T ME. THAT'S ME! ♪ HEY! ♪ WITH HARD WORK

IS AN '80s THEMED PAGEANT. WHOO-HOO! ALL THE GIRLS ARE LIKE THIS --
WAH WAH WAH. THE MOMS ARE LIKE, "WHOO!" THE '80s IS MY ABSOLUTE MOST
FAVORITE DECADE OF ALL TIMES. I MEAN, YOU GOT POPPED COLLARS,
THE HUGE SHOULDER PADS. IF YOU WANT TO BE
THE PREPPY GIRL, OKAY, DOUBLE POLOS

BEHIND -- OBVIOUSLY BY MY HAIR. [ GASPS ] JUMPSUITS!
OH, MY GOSH! [ LAUGHS ] I WAS ONLY 10 IN THE '80s. JUST KIDDING. Kim: MOST OF THIS PAGEANT
IS JUST A NORMAL PAGEANT, BUT THE OUTFIT OF CHOICE
HAS TO BE FULL-BLOWN '80s. '80s WEAR HAS GOT TO BE
OVER-THE-TOP. IT'S NOT ABOUT BEING CUTE. IT'S ABOUT
MAKING A STATEMENT. MARAH,
SO YOU COULD COME OUT, AND YOU COULD BE LIKE
MODERN-DAY CYNDI LAUPER. WHAT ABOUT DOING HER
LIKE MATERIAL GIRL? [ GASPS ] THAT'S AWESOME. SHE'S GOT THE BIG RINGS
AND THE GLOVES. OH, YES! [ SCREAMS ] YAY! I COULD BE A HIPPY. THAT'S '60s. OH. THIS THEME IS REALLY NOT
FOR THE GIRLS. IT'S MORE FOR THE MOMS,
FOR THE JUDGES, FOR MY GENERATION, AND SO THAT'S WHAT
WE'RE REALLY GONNA FOCUS ON. MOST JUDGES
ARE OUR AGE, Y'ALL. AND THEY GREW UP
IN THE '80s, SO LET'S REALLY DO IT
AND DO IT RIGHT. THIS IS OUR OPPORTUNITY TO MAKE
PEOPLE FEEL SOMETHING, OKAY? IF YOU MAKE PEOPLE
FEEL SOMETHING, THEY'LL NEVER FORGET YOU. SO WHEN MARAH WALKS OUT,
ANGIE, IN THAT OUTFIT OF CHOICE
IN THIS '80s PAGEANT, I WANT THEM TO REMEMBER
THEIR HIGH-SCHOOL PROM. I WANT THEM TO REMEMBER
THEIR HOMECOMING. I WANT THEM TO REMEMBER
THEIR FIRST KISS UNDER THE BLEACHERS

TO THEIR GOOD OLD DAYS. YOU HAVE INTERVIEW, TALENT, AND YOUR OUTFIT
OF CHOICE. IS INTERVIEW BEHIND DOORS? YES. [ GASPS ] INTERVIEW'S SIT-DOWN. Kim: I'M EXCITED
ABOUT THIS '80s THEME, BUT TO BE REAL HONEST WITH YOU, THAT'S NOT WHY I ENTERED
THE PAGEANT. I ENTERED THESE GIRLS
IN THIS PAGEANT BECAUSE IT HAS A ONE-ON-ONE
SIT-DOWN INTERVIEW, WHERE JUDGES ASK QUESTIONS -- TOUGH QUESTIONS -- THAT THESE ARE GONNA HAVE TO
HAVE A POINT-OF-VIEW, AND THAT'S WHAT I WANT THEM
TO DO IS BE ABLE TO TALK, GIVE THEIR ANSWERS,
AND SPEAK RIGHT TO THE JUDGES AND BE HEARD, COMMUNICATE! SO, LET'S GIVE IT
SOME THOUGHT BECAUSE THE INTERVIEW
IS THE NUMBER-ONE THING THAT'S GONNA WIN YOU

THERE'S THIS GIRL AT MY CHURCH. I'VE HAD MY EYE ON HER
FOR QUITE A WHILE. HER NAME'S JESSICA,

GET IN THE CAR, AND GO MYSELF. LISTEN, IT'S NOT GONNA BE EASY
TO GET JESSICA TO WEAR HEELS. SHE IS A TOTAL TOMBOY. BUT I LOVE A GOOD CHALLENGE.
YOU KNOW ME. I'M GONNA TELL YOU RIGHT NOW.
THIS IS SUCH A DIFFERENT THING. IT'S SO DIFFERENT
FOR GIRLS. JESSICA,
YOU DRIVE A RACECAR. YEAH. I THINK THAT IS, LIKE,
SMOKIN' COOL. I THINK YOU'RE SUCH A DIFFERENT
AND COOL AND TALENTED KID. COULD YOU EVER DO, MAYBE -- I'M GONNA PUT THE WORD
OUT THERE... AND HOLD IT -- PAGEANT? WHEN I THINK OF PAGEANTS,
I THINK, LIKE, GLITZ. LIKE, THE BIG HAIR, YOU KNOW,
ALL MAKEUP. IT'S A LITTLE BIT
NOT IN MY COMFORT ZONE. YOU COULD GET UP
ON A STAGE, AND, GIRL, YOU KNOW HOW YOU WIN
THE CHECKERED FLAG -- YOU WOULD WIN THE CROWN. BUT I DON'T KNOW, MAYBE THIS IS
A GOOD OPPORTUNITY FOR ME BECAUSE, WITH RACING, YOU DO
HAVE TO DO LOTS OF INTERVIEWS AND LOTS OF, LIKE, YOU KNOW,
TALKING TO PEOPLE. SHE COULD PUT ON HEELS,
SHE COULD WALK IN A DRESS, SHE CAN SPEAK TO PEOPLE,
WHICH IS HUGE. SO, I DON'T KNOW. MIGHT AS WELL TRY IT. THIS IS MY KIND OF THING. I'M COMING BACK

ONE THAT CAN SPOT A GOOD TALENT. WELL, SHE'S NOT,
AND I'M GONNA PROVE HER WRONG. ♪♪ Kim:
TODAY WE ARE WORKING ON -- WHAT DO YOU THINK, WITH
THE TABLE HERE AND THE CHAIR? INTERVIEW. INTERVIEW. AND I THINK ALL OF YOU NEED A LOT OF WORK
ON YOUR INTERVIEW. THIS WEEK, I'VE GOT
A DOUBLE WHAMMY, OKAY? THIS IS WHAT MAKES
THIS PAGEANT UNIQUE -- ONE, IT'S AN '80s PAGEANT,
THE BEST DECADE OF THE WORLD, AND IT'S TOTALLY AMAZE BALLS.
TWO... IT HAS A SIT-DOWN INTERVIEW
ONE-ON-ONE WITH THE JUDGES. EACH GIRL HAS TO GO IN
BY HERSELF FOR FIVE MINUTES, HAVE A POINT-OF-VIEW,
AND BE ABLE TO COMMUNICATE. SO WE'RE GONNA FIRST START
WITH YOU, HANNAH. GOOD MORNING. I'M HANNAH STARK,
AND I'M CONTESTANT NUMBER 1. THESE GIRLS CANNOT TALK
WORTH A HOOT. ALL THEY CAN DO IS TEXT, TWEET, TWITTER, TWERK -- I DON'T KNOW. I'M JUST TELLING YOU RIGHT NOW,
THEY CAN'T TALK. WHAT IS YOUR BEST QUALITY? MY BEST QUALITIES ARE I'M HONEST
AND I'M LOYAL, AND, ALSO, I'M SMART BECAUSE
I MAKE GOOD GRADES IN SCHOOL. TO REALLY IMPRESS JUDGES, YOU CANNOT JUST SIT DOWN
AND GIVE THESE ROBOTIC ANSWERS. I THINK HISTORY IS MORE
IMPORTANT THAN SCIENCE. I WOULD LOVE
TO BE A NEWSCASTER. MY FAVORITE COLOR IS PINK. YOU HAVE TO ACTUALLY HAVE
A POINT-OF-VIEW AND HAVE SOMETHING TO SAY
OF DEPTH. AT WHAT POINT DOES A GIRL
BECOME A WOMAN? [ CRICKETS CHIRP ] SIT-DOWN INTERVIEW IS A WHOLE
NOTHER LEVEL FOR THESE GIRLS. THEY CAN'T GET BY
ON THEIR LITTLE ONE-LINERS OR THEIR BARBIE HAIR ANYMORE. ADDISON, DO YOU THINK
THERE'S A PROBLEM WITH WOMEN IN BEING CATTY
AND JEALOUS? OH, YES. OH, YES. EVERY SINGLE DAY IN LIFE. OUT OF ALL MY GIRLS, MY BIGGEST CHALLENGE
IS GONNA BE ADDISON, BY FAR. HOW DO YOU HANDLE THAT? YOU IGNORE THEM
AND WALK AWAY. MM-HMM. ADDISON'S KIND OF LIKE
A ONE-HIT WONDER. YOU KNOW, SHE COMES UP
WITH THE "HEY, Y'ALL! I CAN HUNT! I CAN FISH!" TWO WEEKS AGO,
ME AND MY DADDY WENT HUNTIN', AND I SHOT TWO BUCKS. DO Y'ALL NOT KNOW HOW HARD IT IS
TO KILL ONE? I SHOT TWO. [ LAUGHTER ] SO, FOR ME,
I WANT TO PUSH ADDISON. I WANT TO SEE HER GROW BECAUSE
THERE'S SOMETHING IN HER. WHAT IS SUCCESS TO YOU? I AIN'T ABOUT TO SAY... NO, I WANT TO HEAR
YOUR ANSWER -- WHAT YOU WERE JUST
GETTING READY TO SAY. DON'T BACK DOWN.
DON'T DO THAT. DON'T BACK DOWN.
DON'T LOOK AT YOUR MAMA. SAY IT TO ME. SAY IT. WELL... ...SUCCESS IS, FOR ME, BEING THIS FAR,
BECAUSE I'VE HAD A HARD LIFE. OH, GOD,
I'M GONNA START CRYING. [ Voice breaking ] MY PARENTS
GOT DIVORCED WHEN I WAS 8, AND THEN MY DADDY KICKED US OUT
OF THE HOUSE. SO WE LIVED
WITH MY MAMA'S MAMA. WE SHARED ONE BED -- ME AND MY BROTHER AND HER
FOR TWO YEARS. AND THEN MAMA
FINALLY GOT ENOUGH MONEY, SO WE GOT OUR OWN HOUSE. [ EXHALES SHAKILY ] I'M SORRY. NO. AND SHE GOT MARRIED AGAIN,
BUT HE WASN'T THE RIGHT ONE. BUT HE MADE US MOVE
INTO HIS MAMA'S HOUSE, SO WE COULDN'T LIVE THERE
ANYMORE WHEN THEY GOT A DIVORCE, SO NOW WE'RE IN
ANOTHER HOUSE. AND I'M THIS FAR IN LIFE, SO I THINK THAT'S SUCCESS
FOR ME. I DO TOO. AWESOME. SEEING ADDISON BREAK DOWN LIKE
THAT, I FELT LIKE, "WOW." I MEAN, THAT, TO ME, SHOWED
KIND OF A SIGN OF MATURITY. I WAS VERY SURPRISED BECAUSE
ADDISON NEVER DOES THAT. SHE ALWAYS TRIES TO ACT TOUGHER, AND SHE TRIES TO HOLD
EVERYTHING IN. ADDISON, BE A LESSON
TO EVERY ONE OF Y'ALL, THIS IS WHAT IT'S ABOUT! [ SNIFFLES ] Kim: I WAS TAKEN BACK BECAUSE I ALWAYS KNEW THERE WAS

YOU'RE NOT PAGEANT READY. ♪♪ HEY! HI! COME IN, GIRL. OH, YOU LOOK CUTE. HI, KIM. LOOK AT YOU, KEL. OH, WE GOT OUR LEATHER
GOING ON TODAY. OH, YES WE DO! I FELT LIKE LEATHER TODAY. AFTER ADDISON'S
EMOTIONAL BREAKTHROUGH, I JUST WANTED TO CHECK IN
WITH HER AND MAKE SURE THAT SHE'S OKAY. SHE PUT A LOT OUT THERE. SHE REALLY SHOWED HERSELF. I JUST WANT TO MAKE SHE KNOWS
THAT I'M HERE FOR HER AND THAT I'M PROUD OF HER. WHEN WE SAT DOWN
AND DID THAT INTERVIEW, I SAW A REALNESS TO YOU THAT, I THINK, IF YOU TAP INTO, IT'S GONNA TAKE YOU
TO A WHOLE NOTHER LEVEL. Kelly: YOU KNOW, I THINK
WHEN SHE FIRST LET IT OUT, I THINK SHE FELT LIKE
SHE'D DONE SOMETHING WRONG BECAUSE SHE HAS NEVER
SHOWN THAT SIDE TO YOU. DOES SHE SHOW IT
TO MANY PEOPLE, KEL? NO. NO. UP UNTIL NOW, ADDISON HAS HIDDEN
BEHIND THIS HILLBILLY ACT. THIS IS A HUGE STEP FOR HER TO KIND OF BREAK THROUGH
AND SHOW HER TRUE SELF. I DON'T WANT HER IN TEARS EVERY
TIME SHE DOES AN INTERVIEW. I WANT TO SUPPORT HER
AND ENCOURAGE HER TO BE HERSELF
AND BE OKAY WITH THAT. WHEN YOU HAVE A STORY, PEOPLE ARE GONNA CONNECT
WITH THAT HEART, AND I REALLY WANT YOU TO FEEL
COMFORTABLE AND CONFIDENT -- NOT ONLY WHEN YOU'RE SITTING
IN FRONT OF JUDGES, BUT WHEN YOU'RE SITTING IN FRONT
OF YOUR LIFE -- THAT YOU FEEL COMFORTABLE
JUST SHOWING YOU. WHEN ADDISON
GOES INTO INTERVIEW, SHE'S ALL ALONE --
IT'S JUST HER AND THE JUDGES. AND I WANT TO GIVE HER
THE STRENGTH AND THE RIGHT SKILLS
SO THAT SHE WILL PREVAIL. YOU JUST GOT TO COME
AND BRING YOUR WHOLE SELF -- THE GOOD, THE BAD, THE UGLY,
THE FUNNY, THE SMART,
'CAUSE YOU'RE SMART AS A WHIP. I WANT TO SEE THAT REAL ADDY. MY WORK WITH ADDISON
HAS JUST STARTED, AND I'M EXCITED TO SEE HER

ON THE WAY DOWN. THAT'S TERRIBLE! Angie: ALLISYN. NOBODY ASKED Y'ALL. ♪♪ AAH! [ ALL TALKING ] ARE WE READY FOR THE '80s? OH, I LOVE IT. ♪ HELLO ♪ AAH! EVERYBODY LOOKS SO FABULOUS!
ANGIE. OH, MY GOSH, ANGIE.
[ LAUGHS ] I'VE GOT TO SAY, I AM MORE
EXCITED ABOUT THIS PAGEANT THAN I HAVE BEEN IN A LONG TIME. I MEAN, IT'S LIKE
TOTALLY TUBULAR. OH, I LOVE THE SUIT! OH, AND YOUR HAIR
LOOKS PERFECTION! ♪ AAH ♪
HALLELUJAH, HONEY! WE HAVE FINALLY GOT FIVE INCHES
OFF THIS HAIR, AND SHE DOESN'T LOOK LIKE
A LITTLE BARBIE. SHE LOOKS LIKE
A SMART YOUNG WOMAN, AND I'M TELLING YOU,
FIVE INCHES OFF HER HAIR HAS LIGHTENED HER PERSONALITY
ABOUT FIVE LEVELS. THE '80s DECADE WAS THE DECADE
OF THE WOMAN. WE WERE ON THE RISE. WE WERE DOING THINGS
WE'D NEVER DONE BEFORE. YOU FIT THAT BILL. THIS COULD NOT BE A MORE PERFECT
PAGEANT FOR HER BECAUSE OF THAT. SHE'S A RACECAR DRIVER
IN A MAN'S WORLD. THE '80s, HONEY,
IS WHEN WOMEN CAME ALIVE. Kim: THIS IS JESSICA'S
FIRST PAGEANT. WE'RE GONNA TAKE JESSICA FROM DIRT RACETRACK GIRL
TO GLAM PAGEANT GIRL. I HOPE JESSICA WALKS AWAY
FEELING LIKE, "MAN, IT'S TOUGH TO BE A GIRL,
BUT I LIKE IT." SO TALK TO ME ABOUT INTERVIEW.
WHAT IS THE BIGGEST NERVIEST THING THAT YOU HAVE
ABOUT INTERVIEW? LIKE, TALKING AND HAVING,
LIKE, PERSONALITY, LIKE PROLONGING
THE CONVERSATION. I'M SUPER NERVOUS
ON PAGEANT DAY WITH JESSICA. AND I GET SCARED.
I'M SCARED! I'M ALREADY TAKING SOMEBODY
WHO DOESN'T KNOW ALL OF WHAT SHE'S DOING AND PUTTING HER IN AN
UNCOMFORTABLE ENVIRONMENT. I'M VERY SCARED. WHAT HAVE YOU GOT
FOR INTERVIEW SUIT? Allisyn: WELL, WE WENT
WITH MY FAVORITE COLORS -- BLACK AND BROWN AND WHITE, AND YOU PUT A LITTLE
OF THE BLUE EYE SHADOW. THAT'S AWFUL! THERE'S NOTHING INTERVIEW
ABOUT THAT THING. NO, IT'S NOT, KIM. NOW, THAT IS
A VERY CUTE LITTLE DRESS. ALLISYN. DANG IT, ALLISYN! THE DRESS SHE PICKED OUT
FOR JESSICA'S INTERVIEW LOOKED LIKE IT FELL OUT
THE UGLY TREE AND HIT EVERY BRANCH
ON THE WAY DOWN. WHAT WAS SHE THINKING? THAT'S TERRIBLE! ALLISYN. NOBODY ASKED Y'ALL. [ CHUCKLES ] WELL, THANK GOD
I THOUGHT OF SOMETHING BECAUSE I KNEW YOU WERE GONNA COME UP WITH SOME
HALF-CROPPED MESS. I LIKE IT. I DON'T KNOW
WHAT KIM'S PROBLEM IS. THAT'S A PERFECTLY CUTE DRESS. I PICKED OUT THIS. THAT IS SO PRETTY! THAT'S PERFECT. IS THAT FABULOUS? YES. YES. YES. I REALLY DO LIKE THAT. WHAT DO YOU THINK? Woman: I LOVE IT.
CHECKERED FLAG, BABY! Jessica: KIM PICKED OUT
THE PERFECT DRESS FOR ME. THAT CHECKERED FLAG
MADE ME FEEL RIGHT AT HOME. IN MY WORLD, THAT FLAG
MEANS YOU'RE WINNER. LET ME LOOK AT YOU.
TELL ME ABOUT HOW YOU
FEEL ABOUT INTERVIEW. GOOD.
I JUST DON'T WANT TO CRY. Kim: I THINK THIS IS THE MOST
IMPORTANT PAGEANT FOR ADDISON. I MEAN, SHE'S HAD
A REAL BREAKTHROUGH. I MEAN,
ALL THESE OTHER PAGEANTS, ADDISON'S BEEN CUTE AND FUN
AND THE REDNECK HAS SHOWN UP. I'M HOPING -- WOULD THE REAL
ADDISON PLEASE STAND UP? BOTTOM LINE IS,
YOU GOT TO BE YOU. YOU GOT TO GET DEEP. I WILL. YOU WILL DO IT? YES, MA'AM. YOU WILL SHOW WHO YOU ARE
AS A PERSON? YES, MA'AM. LET ME GET THOSE LITTLE LIPS
PAINTED UP. KIM WANTS ME TO BE MORE "REAL." BUT I FEEL, LIKE, EMBARRASSED
IF I SHOW MY EMOTIONS. I KNOW I ACT COCKY, BUT INSIDE, DEEP DOWN,
WAY DOWN, I'M WORRIED. YOU CAN DO THIS. I KNOW. I DON'T WANT A PERFORMANCE,
ADDISON. HI. Woman: HI, THERE. WHAT GREAT EARRINGS!
MY GOODNESS! THANK YOU.
THIS IS MY "WINK" TO THE '80s. HAVE A SEAT, SWEETHEART. I SEE YOU'RE DOING
AN ORIGINAL POEM LATER ON. YES. SO YOU BEEN WRITING
ALL YOUR LIFE? I STARTED WRITING STORIES,
AND THEN I WENT TO RAP, BUT WHEN I CAME
TO PAGEANTRY, THEY'RE LIKE, "YOU CAN'T RAP
IN THE PAGEANT," SO I WAS LIKE -- I DON'T KNOW. DON'T GIVE UP ON RAPPING. YOU KNOW, THAT'S A GOOD WAY
TO GET ACROSS TO THE YOUTH. SO DON'T BE DISCOURAGED
BECAUSE IT'S NOT TRADITIONAL IN PAGEANTS. THESE JUDGES
JUST ASKED ME TO RAP, AND THIS IS MY CHANCE --
I'M GONNA RAP. WHAT'S YOUR FAVORITE THING
ABOUT DOING PAGEANTS? I LOVE DOING PAGEANTS
BECAUSE WHEN I WAS LITTLE, I USED TO BE REALLY SHY
AND RESERVED, AND PAGEANTS HAVE REALLY BROUGHT
ME OUT OF MY COMFORT ZONE, AND I'M NOT
AS SHY ANYMORE. SO ON STAGE, IT'S MY TIME
TO SHINE AND BE MYSELF. WOW. Hannah:
THAT INTERVIEW WAS AMAZING. I'M NOT SURE IF IT'S MY NEW
SOPHISTICATED HAIRCUT OR WHAT, BUT I FEEL LIKE I'VE MOVED
TO THE NEXT LEVEL. HI, JESSICA. HELLO.
NICE TO MEET YOU. NICE TO MEET YOU. YOU LIKE RACING, AND YOU'RE WEARING YOUR
BLACK-AND-WHITE CHECKERED DRESS, SO THERE YOU GO! I AM. Jessica: I KNOW I HAVE TO BE
MYSELF IN THIS INTERVIEW, AND YOU'D THINK IT'D BE EASY,
RIGHT? BUT THEY'RE GONNA BE JUDGING
FOR WHO I AM, SO I'M JUST NERVOUS ABOUT IT. WHAT'S YOUR FAVORITE SUBJECT
IN SCHOOL? UM, FIRST IT WAS, UM... I HAVE A, UM... UM... WHAT'S YOUR FAVORITE SUBJECT
IN SCHOOL? I HAVE A, UM... Jessica:
I KNOW I HAVE TO BE MYSELF
IN THIS INTERVIEW, YOU KNOW, AND YOU'D THINK IT'D BE EASY,
RIGHT? BUT THEY'RE JUDGING
FOR WHO I AM, SO I'M JUST NERVOUS ABOUT IT. MY FAVORITE SUBJECT IS MATH 'CAUSE I LIKE, YOU KNOW,
FIGURING OUT PROBLEMS. SO WHEN ARE YOU GOING
TO DAYTONA? UM, RIGHT NOW I'M STAYING
WITH DIRT-TRACK RACING, BUT ONCE I GET THAT DOWN,
I WANT TO GO TO DAYTONA. I WANT TO WIN IT
FOR THE FIRST FEMALE. Jessica: I WAS SO NERVOUS
DURING THAT INTERVIEW, BUT I THOUGHT I DID AWESOME.
LIKE, I ROCKED IT. TELL ME EVERYTHING.
GO, GO, GO! I WAS VERY NERVOUS, BUT I TRIED TO TALK LIKE I WAS
TALKING TO MY BEST FRIEND, AND I THOUGHT IT WENT WELL. OBVIOUSLY,
IT'S IMPOSSIBLE FOR ME TO KNOW HOW JESSICA DID
IN INTERVIEW, BUT SHE FEELS GOOD ABOUT IT, SO OBVIOUSLY
THAT'S WHAT'S IMPORTANT. CONTESTANT NUMBER 10,
ADDISON. Woman:
HELLO, ADDISON! LOVE THE BELT. THANK YOU. IT SAYS YOU WANT MOVE
TO NEW YORK CITY... YES, MA'AM. ...AND DO FASHION DESIGN. Addison: I THINK THIS
BREAKTHROUGH WITH KIM SHOWED ME THAT I'M MORE
THAN EVERYBODY SEES. WELL, WHEN I WAS LITTLE,
I ALWAYS LIKED TO DRESS UP. MAMA WENT
AND TOOK ME TO WALMART, AND I BOUGHT
THESE FAKE HIGH HEELS, THE CINDERELLA DRESSES,
AND I WORE THEM OUT TO EAT. AND INSTEAD OF PLAYING
WITH BABY DOLLS, I'VE ALWAYS LIKED TO COLOR. AND I ALWAYS DREW STICK FIGURES
WITH CLOTHES. AND I'VE ALWAYS JUST BEEN
THAT KIND OF PERSON WHO LIKES TO EXPRESS MY FEELINGS
THROUGH FASHION. I JUST WANT TO BE ABLE TO DO
THAT FOR OTHER PEOPLE, TOO. DO YOU THINK THAT A BIG CITY
LIKE NEW YORK WOULD BE
A LITTLE INTIMIDATING? OH, NO, I GOT THIS. YOU THINK
YOU'LL FIT RIGHT IN? I'LL FIT RIGHT IN. I FINALLY GET WHAT KIM'S
BEEN TELLING ME. I DON'T HAVE TO HIDE BEHIND THE ACT
OF THE "REDNECK GIRL" IN INTERVIEW ANYMORE --
