15:05Now PlayingOn Monday, we told you about Taliyah Cockburn, the black Louisiana teen beauty pageant contestant and one of the three judges said that Taliyah's natural afro was not "finished."
Here's what judge three said about Taliyah. "Slow down, finish hair, pretty color dress."
Well, one of the judges, judge number two, the black one, the only black one, Stacey Simien-Dickens, saw our story on YouTube and posted this comment.
"HI! I was one of the judges at the pageant in LA I just saw the video interview of I am also the current president of the LA pageant judges association and this was not a race issue. There is an expectation of grooming among other things in pageants. Her sister competed and was more groomed than she and she placed. It's not about her the child was not put together as a whole. Please don't make this a race issue bc we have plenty of things that are racial issues that need highlighting here in LA but this is NOT one of them. It looked like she has been mistreated but it's partially her family to blame for putting her up there and not having her completely put together to compete in that type of pageant."
