It's been 25 years since the globally beloved Miss Congeniality came out, and it's been 9 years since this only-just-slightly-less-globally-beloved podcast first started. And I don't really remember where I was going with that, but that's the timeline. Anyway, we're finally bringing you what you really want -- a frank, 2-hour discussion of the Sandra Bullock beauty pageant classic, and eventually, somehow, world peace.

La temporada 17 ha llegado a su fin y Reyes de la Biblioteca Podcast no podía dejar de comentar los entretelones de este gran espectáculo final, desde una inesperada aparición del icono del cine Liza Minelli hasta las performances de nuestras finalistas con su propia voz. Muchos momentos estelares, una Miss Congeniality muy imprevista y un lipsync que al parecer, no dejo a todxs lxs fans felices. Acompáñame junto a mi querido y carismático @ratacardo a analizar los puntos fuertes de esta TREMENDA temporada y la gloriosa final que dejo con la corona a una de las reinas más carismáticas y talentosas de la franquicia.

This week on Sibling Watchery, Bob and Monét break down the Drag Race Season 17 Grand Finale. They review the looks—what's working and what isn't—and question which self-referential outfits land out of context. Bob picks Susie as a runway standout, and they talk about how Sam Star represents Alabama and how Bob would do it differently. They discuss whether the finale should return to theaters, share thoughts on RuPaul's performance and the Miss Congeniality win, and Monét still has feelings about missing out on her cash prize.

It's Audience Choice time so this week we're talking about the iconic Sandra Bullock movie MISS CONGENIALITY. We're defending her boss at the FBI for sidelining her after she gets a co-worker shot, criticizing their awful investigation and making a weak attempt to defend a homicidal former beauty queen. Plus, a surprisingly deep conversation on how feminism means showing up for all women. Produced by Andrew Ivimey as part of The From Superheroes Network.

In this episode, Joe and Nathan recap the Grand Finale of RuPaul's Drag Race Season 17, discussing the performances, the final lip sync battle, and the overall energy of the finale. They also reflect on Nathan's departure from the show until next year and the announcement of the co-host for All Stars 10. The conversation delves into the debate of whether lip sync performances or track records should weigh more in determining the winner, and they express their thoughts on the finale's format and energy. They also analyze the strengths and weaknesses of each performance, the impact of the contestants' backgrounds, and the overall production of the finale. The conversation also touches on the Miss Congeniality segment and a special appearance by Liza Minnelli, concluding with reflections on the season as a whole.

Mientras el país se quedaba sin luz en pleno Miércoles Santo, la gobernadora disfrutaba de sus vacaciones de Semana Santa en altamar... hasta que el desastre fue tan grande que tuvo que regresar.

It's been Onya's season to win since she walked into the workroom in that vest, but this finale had us a bit nervous. Sam's red carpet and Lexi's rollerskates left them both primed for an All Stars comeback, and Crystal winning Miss Congeniality mayo feel righty real! But it all came down to the burger queen of Cleveland vs Tampa's answer to Tracee Ellis Ross. Abracadabra may not have been a magical lip sync for either of them, but some seasons it does just come down to track record.

This episode's guest is actor, writer, voiceover artist, and unapologetic improv nerd, Roxana Ortega.Roxana is one of those rare artists whose vulnerability, honesty, and humor hit you all at once – and leave a lasting impression. If her voice sounds familiar, it might be because she's voiced everything from the passionate Frida Casagrande on The Casagrandes to characters in Call of Duty, Final Fantasy, and Monsters at Work. She's narrated Pulitzer Prize-winning novels, voiced countless animated characters, and is a master of voice matching (yes, she's dubbed for Penelope Cruz and Salma Hayek).In our conversation, Roxana takes us through the unexpected path that led her to acting – from growing up in an academic household where creativity wasn't considered a “real” career, to having a life-changing epiphany while teaching English in Spain. We talk about the internal battle between playing it safe and going after what you truly want—and what it really means to decide to be an artist.We go deep into the power of improv as both a performance tool and a life philosophy, how failure can be a gift, and why community-building and representation matter now more than ever. Roxana shares how she uses her voice – literally and figuratively – to make space for underrepresented stories, and how she's continued to evolve as a writer, performer, and director.Whether you're someone who thrives on stage or someone working up the courage to take the leap, Roxana's journey will remind you that embracing risk, staying curious, and being fiercely yourself is always worth it.Episode Chapters 00:00 – Welcome + Introduction02:00 – Names, Language, and Laughter04:00 – Academic Roots & Artistic Restlessness07:55 – The Epiphany in Spain13:49 – “I Decided to Be an Actor”16:00 – Improv, Joy, and Redefining Failure21:45 – Performing, Directing, and Creating Her Own Work32:00 – Representation, Identity, and Making Space40:00 – The Tapestry of Humanity49:30 – Amazing Race Nerd Out50:50 – Blissful Spinster & Making Art on Your Own Terms54:35 – Final Words of Wisdom55:14 – What's Next for Roxana58:00 – Wrap-Up & Thank YouRoxana's Bio:Roxana Ortega is an American actor, writer, and voiceover artist who is known for voicing the ever-emotional Frida Casagrande on Nickelodeon's Emmy award-winning and Imagen award-winning cartoon The Casagrandes, a spinoff of the acclaimed series The Loud House.On-camera, she recently starred opposite Danny Trejo, Reno Wilson, and a cast of legends including Garrett Morris, Barry Bostwick, and James Hong in the Universal feature Grand-Daddy Day Care. Other film credits include The Flight Before Christmas opposite Mayim Bialik, Miss Congeniality 2 opposite Sandra Bullock, and Larry Crowne opposite Tom Hanks. Her TV guest-star credits include New Girl, Shonda Rhimes' For The People, The League, Rules of Engagement, NCIS, and the Peabody award-winning satire American Vandal.Behind the mic, she has voiced countless characters in TV, films, trailers, commercials, and some of the biggest video game franchises around, including Call of Duty: Modern Warfare, Final Fantasy, Halo, and Ghost Recon: Wildlands. A two-time AudioFile Earphones Award winner, she has narrated the Pulitzer Prize-winning novel A Visit from the Goon Squad, the National Book Award finalist Sabrina & Corina, and the New York Times's non-fiction best seller Random Family to name just a few. In addition, her mimicking skills have led her to voice-match the likes of Penelope Cruz, Salma Hayek, and Jennifer Tilly.Born in Los Angeles and raised in Fullerton, CA, Roxana is of mixed Peruvian and Mexican descent. She graduated from U.C. Berkeley Phi Beta Kappa with a degree in Interdisciplinary Studies, then spent a year teaching English in Madrid, Spain. It was there, while she was elaborately acting out English vocabulary to her students, that she realized she wanted to pursue a career in acting. She returned to the Bay Area and immersed herself in theatre and improvisation, then made her way to Los Angeles where she continued her improv and acting training and began writing and performing sketch comedy.Roxana is an alumna of the CBS Diversity Sketch Comedy Showcase, Upright Citizen's Brigade, and the Groundlings Sunday Company. She has written and produced her own shorts and performed storytelling all over Los Angeles, including at The Moth GrandSLAM.She is also the creator and co-host of the live storytelling show Minority Retorts, which spotlights stories from the under-represented, and The Risking Space, a podcast about art and risk. Connect with Roxana on: InstagramLearn more about Latina's Act Up on: InstagramCheck out The Groundlings on: Instagram Links & LoveIf your ears like what they're snacking on, follow, rate, and drop a review—it helps others find the show too.Want to support the show or get access to extra content—like behind-the-scenes journals, guest deep dives, and updates on getting Alone Girl made?

We deep dive right back into some nostalgia with this weeks recap and revisit the fresh into the Millenia classic, Miss Congeniality. Starring Sandra Bullock, Michael Caine, William Shatner and Candice Bergen.  Sandra is always a vibe. We're never mad about it. However, this movie is very late 90's early 2000's. Girl needs a makeover so boy sees her for HER. But this girl has a gun. Several actually. Because this is America. 

We were delighted to be joined by the wonderful Lucy Wilkinson- Miss Durham, in this weeks episode of Student Voice.We spoke all things beauty pageants, from training to misconceptions.Be sure to tune in to learn what holding this title really means- warning its nothing like Miss Congeniality or Toddlers &Tiaras!

Welcome back to another episode of the Video Store Podcast! Valentine's Day may have come and gone, but we're still feeling the love at the Video Store. I've selected four films this week that love love so much that even the romance denier in your life will melt like so many boxes of chocolate in the noonday sun. Miss Congeniality (2000)Put on your dress and strap on your gun, it's time for Miss Congeniality. Sandra Bullock stars as FBI Agent Gracie Hart, who must go undercover at the Miss United States Beauty Pageant to protect the participants from an anonymous bomb threat. While Gracie is put through her primping paces, she starts to learn that beauty isn't skin-deep with the pageant participants, but it might be with its runner. She and Agent Matthews must work together to find the bomber before it's too late. This one will keep you laughing every day of the year, especially on April 25. Love & Basketball (2000)Hit the court for our next film, Gina Prince-Blythewood's first major film, Love & Basketball from 2000. I don't say this lightly. Love & Basketball is a perfect movie. Period. A phenomenal story, direction, great character development, performances, and a bangin' soundtrack to boot, all make Love & Basketball a wonderful movie to enjoy with even the deepest romantic skeptic in your life. Swish, swish, bish. Crazy Rich Asians (2018)Take a trip to Singapore with Rachel and Nick this week with 2018's Crazy Rich Asians, based on the book of the same name. Rachel Chu finds out her sweet and unpretentious boyfriend, Nick Young, is actually the son and heir to one of the wealthiest and most influential families in Singapore when he takes her back home for his best friend's wedding. Learning to navigate high society is difficult enough, let alone in a new country with Nick's overbearing family. Watching Rachel and Nick learn to navigate difficult family dynamics and fight for each other will warm even the coldest heart. This is a rom-com that everyone will enjoy. Hitch (2005)Our last film for the week is Hitch from 2005, starring Will Smith, Eva Mendes, Kevin James, and Amber Valletta. This is a film about learning to let down your walls just long enough for the right person to get through, even if you might get hurt. Filled with great one-liners, loads of laughs, and a soundtrack that will keep you dancing, Hitch is a solid choice for movie night.

In his book From Hollywood with Love: The Rise and Fall (and Rise Again) of the Romantic Comedy, Scott Meslow lays out two ways to tell if a given movie is a rom-com. First, his own definition: “A romantic comedy is a movie where (1) the central plot is focused on at least one romantic love story; and (2) the goal is to make you laugh at least as much as the goal is to make you cry.” And then, The Donald Petrie Test, named for the director of some rom-coms, like Mystic Pizza and How to Lose a Guy in 10 Days, but also some edge cases, like Miss Congeniality and Grumpy Old Men: “If you removed the love story from this [comedy], would you still have a movie? If the answer is no, it’s a romantic comedy. […] If the answer is yes, it’s a comedy with a romantic subplot.” So those are the litmus tests. Now, does that make Broadcast News a rom-com, or no? What about Annie Hall? Or something like Grosse Pointe Blank? How about His Girl Friday? Or even, actually, Love Actually? This hour, a deconstruction — and celebration — of the romantic comedy.

Our exit today has us thinking about what is the perfect date. This week, we are talking about Miss Congeniality, written by Marc Lawrence, Katie Ford and Caryn Lucas and directed by Donald Petrie. In addition to the natural comparisons to Drop Dead Gorgeous, we talk Sandra Bullock, Benjamin Bratt, Michael Caine, The William Shatner renaissance, hiding donuts, physical comedy, and the Christmas movie season of 2000.

Welcome back to Lez Hang Out, the podcast that is ready to throw hands with the critics over at Rotten Tomatoes.  This week, Leigh (@lshfoster) and Ellie (@elliebrigida) hang out to talk about why the 2005 buddy cop comedy Miss Congeniality 2: Armed and Fabulous Should've Been Gay. In case you missed it, we covered how incredibly gay the OG Miss Congeniality was way back in SBG 48. If you are one of those people who won't watch anything with a low score on Rotten Tomatoes, congrats on stumbling into our Ted talk on why you're just going to have to make an exception for this absolute gem of a sequel. Miss Congeniality 2 takes place about 10 years after the original. It re-introduces us to Gracie Hart (Sandra Bullock) who is now the public face of the FBI (and inexplicably, a high femme). Gracie may be blending in better with the straights these days, but she still manages to find herself in a messy love triangle with her longtime lover Cheryl (from the first movie) and her new FBI partner Sam. Why are movies so afraid of giving us successful throuples? The solution is literally right in front of their faces!  Even though we don't get the throuple of our dreams, we would argue that teaming up to save your partner's ex is the most classically lesbian thing anyone could ever do. When Cheryl is kidnapped, both Gracie and Sam risk their lives to save her. That's love right there.  We know one thing for sure, Miss Congeniality 2: Armed and Fabulous Should've Been Gay.

"You think I'm gorgeous, you want to kiss me..."We put the cuffs on our Crime Corner July series and throw away the key with our episode all about 2000's "Miss Congeniality"!Sandy B. is on fire in this one, anyone could attest to that. Accompanying her are heavy hitters like Candice Bergen, William Shatner, and of course the effervescent Michael Caine bring a level of panache. And lest we forget, a stunningly hot Benjamin Bratt rounds out the cast with his smarminess.A classic early 2000's comedy, this one pulls all the right strings in balancing comedy and action, while bringing a little bit of that down-home goodness that only Sandra Bullock can bring to the table. But of course, it goes without saying this movie's blatant sexism and objectification of women is on full display and is a product of its time.Despite the flaws, this movie is enjoyable mostly in part to the dynamic and fun cast. This movie also holds a special place in Joe's heart for a number of awe-worthy reasons!Stay tuned for our next series where we explore sports movies, literally kicking off with a Justin pick: "Varsity Blues"!--We are Uncultured Universe - the podcast where two friends show each other movies, tv, music, or anything else to get a little more cultured.

Capeside is closing out tourist season with Windjammer Days, a town-wide festival of which we see absolutely nothing except the climactic Miss Windjammer pageant. Dawson thinks Jen should enter, which she takes to be a backhanded compliment about her vanity. Jen thinks Joey should enter, because her tips are drying up and she could use the $5000 prize as the start of a college fund. And Pacey thinks Pacey should enter, because his dad is ready for him to become an emancipated minor and move out on his own. Who will be permitted to enter? How will Dawson humiliate himself? And what Broadway standard will be slaughtered in the process? Find out as your two favorite Miss Congeniality washouts bring you a podcast on "Beauty Contest"! JOIN THE AWT CLUB

"I am in a dress, I have gel in my hair, I haven't slept all night, I'm starved, and I'm armed! Don't *mess* with me!" We had author and comedian Elizabeth Teets over to discuss the Sandra Bullock classic Miss Congeniality, and HEY I'M GLIDING HERE!  We love a movie in which an otherwise stunner like Sandy Bullock is slapped with some glasses, frizzed out hair and a penchant for tripping over things and suddently we are to believe she's some kind of crone no straight man would give a second look to. We are suspending our disbelief for the sake of comedy and beleive me - Sandy is selling it! FBI Special Agent Gracie Hart doesn't wear makeup, can't walk in heels and in lesser hands this trope might not have worked, but there are some comedic chops throughout this cast. Heavy hitters like Michael Caine, Candice Bergen and yes even William Shatner are doing some great work here. We're not forgetting Benjamin Bratt and his chiseled face - did he go on to play nearly the same character in "Catwoman"? Maybe, but it's all good, he's charming and has some great chemistry with Sandy. Maybe you didn't start this episode thinking you'd get a deep dive into Candy Bergen's backstory (Yes she's the heiress to a ventriloquist fortune!) but hey it's here and now you have some Hollywood trivia you didn't know you needed. Don't worry, we address Ernie Hudson and how he hasn't aged a single day from this movie... he's been added to the list of celebs who took the potion. Oh and we have seen the sequel "Miss Congeniality 2: Armed and Fabulous" but the original will always be the superior entry. Also, isn't it time that One In a Million gets its Murder on the Dancefloor renaissance?  Thanks for listening and don't forget to subscribe, rate and review us on Apple Podcasts! www.patreon.com/moviesthatmadeusgay Facebook/Instagram: @moviesthatmadeusgay X (Twitter): @MTMUGPod Scott Youngbauer: X (Twitter) @oscarscott / Instagram @scottyoungballer Peter Lozano: X (Twitter)/Instagram @peterlasagna Elizabeth Teets Instagram: @elteets

So grab your reading glasses and listen up, sonny, as we chat about the good, the bad, and the perimenopausal of it all.
