Inside the 2011 Search for Miss Teen Canada World Saturday July 9th was a very special Registration Day for at least seventy five participants in the 2011 Search for Miss Teen Canada – World, as one by one teen girls age 14-18 from all across Canada checked their luggage into the sponsor hotel in downtown Toronto to start their week long adventure. One at a time they met each other in the lobby and corridors the massive historic hotel complex at the base of the city. In the antechamber of one of the enormous ballrooms, they found Michelle Weswaldi and lined up there to present her with their head shots, and CDs filled with pictures, videos and audio that they recorded at home in which they demonstrate their acting, singing and special skills for the upcoming talent show.

This is a victory cry. As of October 2009, the keywords ‘miss teen Canada’ will always return www.MissTeenCanadaWorld.com as the first result in organic Google search. The MTCW blog written by 2009 Miss Teen Canada- World, Siera Bearchell is in 2nd position. Miss Teen Canada- International is now third, forevermore Today we celebrate the Miss Teen Canada-World website as the first most socially relevant return for the keywords ‘miss teen Canada’ on Google, eclipsing at least four other contenders in that surprisingly competitive search category.

There’s been lots of good Smojoe in September 2009. Here’s a long mash up of this month’s best memories and media. Let’s start with Siera Bearchell and the terrific writing she’s been putting up on the Miss Teen Canada– World blog. Her work deserves recognition and more readership because of the admirable manner in which she’s taken the reigns and responsibility from Katie Starke. Gone but not forgotten, Katie has started her own blog Katie Starke OnSugar this month. This portal is starting small but will grow and mature in the network to keep all her fans updated with reports on whatever she chooses to do with her life. After a well deserved Mediterranean vacation, Michelle Weswaldi is back as Pageant Director of MTC-W and is now prepping the Ontario finals as part of the 2010 Search for Miss Teen Canada– World. Just this morning, much to my surprise,… Read more »

On Thursday July 23rd 2009, Rob Campbell, the social media director for The 2009 Search for Miss Teen Canada – World was invited to judge The Preliminaries at the Betty Oliphant Theatre. At 9pm, fifty four girls got off a charter bus outside with dresses, fancy shoes and all their costumes. Betty Oliphant Theatre is cute little venue on Jarvis Street. It’s one of only a half dozen non union theaters left in Toronto, and has a friendly and accommodating staff that still love their craft and are keen to show visitors and trespassers like myself exactly what’s possible in a modern venue. Smojoe was treated to a preview of the lights and sounds of the upcoming pageant preliminaries, an hour before they actually happened. And I should NOTE the show went seamlessly. Great work guys. Anyone familiar with the Miss Teen Canada- World beauty pageant knows the pageant director… Read more »
