Wait, you're worried about this painted doll's future? Are you kidding? Everybody now knows her name, everybody's now seen how gosh-darn pretty she is, half the world is jumping to act as her White Knight, she has been anointed with Matt Lauer's drool... she's got her spotlit career set now, light years ahead of any other pageant contestant or winner..
Exactly. That was my second thought after choking on my morning tea.
There is a very slim possibility she's actually incredibly clever, and intentionally gave such a mind bogglingly stupid, but perfectly comical, answer. Ending her babbling with "for the children" was perfect.
If she's as clever as a Paris Hilton, and could release her own video to YouTube, that was a very good move.
Even if it was accidental, already she's on the today Show and an overnight celeb. She's got a shot at the next screenplay needing a pretty bimbo character for a comedy, or any number of roles in advertising, and would bring her own "buzz" marketing advantage. For example, the Geico Cavemen schitck would work with a Pagent Bimbo just fine.
