From luxurious beauty treatments and private jets to relaxation exercises and acting classes, the stakes are higher for these young competitors and their fierce mothers who will do whatever it takes to win. The spray tans and "flippers" that won a contestant the Ultimate Grand Supreme in the past are just the baseline today.
The new top prize, the Mega Ultimate Grand Supreme, has pageant parents sparing no expense to hire professional coaches that are now a must-have to win. Some parents pay in the thousands of dollars to secure the most sought after pageant professionals.
Eden Wood and mom Mickie — The face of child beauty pageants, Eden was one of the biggest winners in child pageant history, and mom Mickie turned her pageant fame into movie roles.
Ava Perez and dad David — Ava was barely old enough to know what pageants were back in the day, but her costume designing, routine choreographing, hair and makeup expert dad David was in love with the pageant life.

Now, thanks to her jewelry line, Bella is a self-described self-made young millionaire and mom Susanna is the Momma-preneur. Now in college, Tootie is all grown up but her mom Stacy still waits on her hand and foot. Liana Pirraglia and mom Mary — Liana was once the underdog of the pageant world. When appearing on the show, Mary said she had to sign a contract that allowed her child to be interviewed three times without her there.
During an interview, Liana took her long locks and pulled them under her armpits, pretending to have armpit hair, something she had never done before. Contact The Author Name required.
