Now that I've seen the show, I'm not sure that Christi is from the same previous show that I thought she was. The profile seems the same but SHE looks different. On that previous show the couple had a large family and the wife wanted to be a soap star and even had a reading for someone in the business. Does anyone else remember? One thing I will say is it's not reasonable to think that someone has to be pretty to be a fundraiser, look at Leona Helmsley. When my daughter was elementary school age, she liked to dress up in formal dresses and wear a crown. (I used to get formal dresses from the Goodwill and sew them to fit her.) But, she never talked about pageants, she just liked to play dress up and wear a crown. She outgrew it. I guess if someone has the extra money and wants to do pageants, then that's thier business. It seemed that for most on the show today money represented an obstacle and was causing problems with the spouse. Concerning the pregnant couple, I CANNOT believe she has one extra moment to spend on pageant related stuff. I mean 6 kids and one on the way, come on! That was one of the most ridiculous things I have ever seen. I don't think it's fair to her husband and children for her to persue this at this time in her life. What in the world is she thinking? The thing with the crown at the end of the show for Robin, I wonder if DrP had discussed that beforehand with Robin? Surely  he had and they were out of time anyway. I personally, have never been drawn to participate in the pageant world. It wouldn't mean a thing to me to go and compete for a sash and a crown. To win would have no validation for me at all. We are all different. Like I said in the beginning, if someone has the financial resources and the support of thier spouse, then go for it. 
Dr Phil mentioned that she had bben on a prvious show and she said no one called herto beon a soap opera so she turned to pagents.
