Hey.
- Hi. - Hey.
Come on in, Kelly.
Come on in.
So I got a phone call from one mom, Kelly.
And she said, I want my daughter to do pageants.
But she is rough around the edges.
Addison, come on in.
How are you?
I'm good.
Girls, we've got a new pageant place contest.
She's going to enter our pageant with us coming up.
What are we dealing with here?
Well, we kind of got the country girl who likes
to hunt, fish, shoot guns.
And I think I kind of want to see the girly girl side of her.
I want her to be able to experience the pageant world.
I'm hoping that Kim is going to be
able to take Addison to another level of trying to be a lady.
But Addison is a tough girl.
If you want her to do something, if she's not in the mood to do
it, she's not going to do it.
Tell me something about yourself.
OK.
My name is Addison, of course.
I like to hunt.
I like to fish.
I like to go mud bogging.
I like to eat.
I like to sleep.
I don't like to wear high heels.
I don't like to dress up.
When she opens her mouth, I'm in a love
hate relationship with it.
Tell me some more.
About what?
About you.
OK.
Well, I'm bubbly, of course.
Bubbly, a little country accent goes a long way.
But her accent is so thick, I mean, she needs subtitles.
Like I just have that personality that makes it pop.
Like, what!
I'm the bomb.
I love her.
The girls are like just staring
me down like I'm like the weirdest person in the world.
What do you want to be when you grow up?
A fashion designer.
Well, kind of.
But then, I can also be a veterinarian.
I can help farm animals in need.
Like if a cow's pregnant, I can go to their farm and help it.
Like that.
How's a cow get [inaudible]?
I ain't going to get the details.
But they fall in love.
There's a lot of people Kim brings into this place.
But come on, Addison?
Doesn't even look like she's ever
run a brush through that hair.
OK, Addison.
Do you have a talent?
- Heck yeah. - What you do?
I dance.
Double step, right step, double step, right step,
double step, double step, double step, double step, right step.
OK.
We're not going to clog here.
That's my biggest pet peeve, is clogging.
Addison started clogging.
And I thought, dear god, does every single little redneck
country chick got to clog?
I mean, no wonder people hate the south.
They think we're a bunch of uneducated, hick,
redneck fools.
Because all we do is clog.
Can't you sing some opera, dance a lyrical ballet?
Do something with some passion and class.
Can you sing?
- Oh, [bleep] no. - Just try.
Let's just try to hear you do something.
Oh, man.
- Just sing a little something. - OK.
I did it.
Do what I say.
Amazing grace.
We going to stick to the dance.
I see the golden potential.
I love this personality.
- I do, too. - I love your personality.
Woo.
You can't make that.
There's something in that kid's eyes
that says to me, hey, Ms. Kim, I want to do this thing.
You're fresh.
You're original.
You're ballsy.
- Oh, thanks. - Amen.
Mom, I think we can work with her.
I'm going to take her into the office
and kind of chit-chat about it.
All right. Let's go.
Come on.
All right.
Y'all OK?
When Addison walked in, no lie, all of our girls went--
jaws hit the floor.
Are you a little intimidated by her confidence level?
She's not even in her element.
And she's confident here.
Oh, she's in her element.
She's wearing her element.
I'm a little jealous when another girl comes in.
Because I feel like it's stepping on Ainsley's time.
All this, we can get her there.
Y'all know that, right?
But this inside, how she speaks, how she comes across,
she's raw.
She's real.
That's what we're getting at here.
The bottom line is is she speaks her mind.
She tells what she needs to tell.
Y'all, that's what I'm saying.
You got to dig a little deeper than we digging.
Addison, do you want to do pageants?
I mean, I know I hear your momma say it.
But I want to ask you, one on one, woman to woman, girl
to girl.
Do you want to do pageants?
Because I don't want to train somebody
that doesn't want to do them.
I love Addison.
But I can't go on without her being on board.
There's no way.
It depends.
Yeah.
I might do a pageant just to make momma happy.
You want to do a pageant?
Mhm.
Well, I got one for you this weekend.
It's a local pageant.
[inaudible]?
It's got talent.
It's got interview.
Probably one of my biggest concerns-- because why
do you think I'm concerned about your interview?
Because I say what comes up.
I like how you say what comes up.
Why you worried?
- Why do you think I'm worried? - I don't know.
Why you think I'm worried?
Because I don't have any manners or something.
Really?
I'm waiting for her to pick her nose and eat it.
You know what I'm saying?
The problem I have with your interview
is you talk 90 to nothing.
Yeah. She does.
And my gosh.
Half the words I don't even understand what you're saying.
You said ain't, y'all, cause, jeez a million times.
That we can't do that in a pageant.
Can't do it.
Her personality is a 10.
Her speech and her dialect are a 2-- no a 1.7.
So she's got a lot of work to do.
