Glamorous Photos from This Year's Miss Gay Missouri America Pageant

The 43rd Miss Gay Missouri America pageant took place at the Metropolitan Community Church of Greater St. Louis this past weekend. This year's comic con theme was a nod to Miss Gay Missouri America 2016 Regina La Rae (Kory Burch) and her partner's comic con costume company. With twenty-two contestants hailing from six Missouri cities (St. Louis, Kansas City, Columbia, Springfield, Hannibal and St. Joseph), the contest included male interview, evening gown, on-stage interview and talent categories to ultimately determine this year's Miss Gay Missouri America. The winner, Tabbi Katt, will go on to compete in the Miss Gay America 2018 pageant in New Orleans in October. Click through to see all the glitz and glamour that graced the stage this weekend.
