Alyse Eady, Miss Arkansas', Ventriloquism Yodeling Act (VIDEO)


First Posted: 01/16/11 05:41 PM ET Updated: 05/25/11 07:25 PM ET

Miss Arkansas Alyse Eady fulfilled all of our Miss America Pageant dreams on Saturday night by performing a ventriloquism act during the talent portion of the show. But instead of it being a series of "dummy, no you're the dummy" jokes, there was singing, yodeling and double the dolls. Eady was ultimately named the first runner-up, winning $25,000.

For some reason, that reminded me of "America's Got Talent" only the contestants in the beauty pageant are prettier and the whole show makes me sleepier.

Why do Americans choose from just two people to run for president and 50 for Miss America?
