While Miss America is reportedly out at TLC, the pageant business continues to thrive for NBC.
According to reports issued Monday, both Miss USA and Miss Universe pageants will be seen on NBC for at least three more years, thanks to a recently signed deal.
The deal, which runs through 2012, was signed by Donald Trump amidst what some are calling a renewed interest in beauty pageants.
“There’s been renewed interest in this series of beauty pageants, especially among a new generation of younger viewers,” Paul Telegdy, of NBC told press. “NBC is proud to maintain this unique American cultural tradition as a viable series of competitive programming specials that continue to be a popular source of entertainment.”
