We'd be tempted to say something about beauty being skin-deep, but a Maryland beauty queen's recent trip to the wrong side of the law really has more to do with her refusal to be ignored (insert "Fatal Attraction" reference here).Police in Frostburg, Md., arrested Christie Ganoe, the current Miss Washington County, last week after she allegedly broke into her ex-boyfriend's home and punched a woman there. She has been charged with second-degree assault and fourth-degree burglary.
Police were summoned to remove Ganoe's from her ex-boyfriend's home when an argument broke out. The persistent 22-year-old returned later, entered illegally and cold-cocked her ex's female guest.
Ganoe was crowned Miss Washington County in February for a one-year term, having run on an "anti-bullying" platform. Pageant officials in Maryland have put Ganoe on "extended leave of absence" following the arrest.
Check out the world's weirdest beauty pageants below.
Weirdest Pageants of the World
Miss Klingon Empire Beauty Pageant
She might look like a horrifying battle ax to you, but all the guys at the Star Trek convention were asking for her number.

Miss Outdoor Life
During the talent portion of this Maryland pageant contestants skin muskrats. Beauty queens and skinned varmint -- what's better than that?

International Bottom Championship
First place gets 10,000 dollars, an underwear modeling contract and, curiously, an insurance policy on her winning assets. (In case her new found life of luxury leads to a terrible bidet accident, we're guessing)
Daily Telegraph
Miss Wheelchair America
Scandal hit Miss Wheelchair America in 2005 when Miss Wheelchair Wisconsin was removed from the pageant after photos of her standing were leaked to the press. Seriously.

Miss Gothic
You won't find a spray tan or an evening dress that isn't black at this contest to find the gloomiest beauty.

Miss Hooker
Miss Hooker competitors aren't actually working girls. Instead they are sending up typical beauty contest mores by dressing slutty, displaying off-beat talents -- such as frying an egg while stripping -- and competing under names like Ms. Squirt and Ms. One Dolla No Holla.

Miss Plastic Surgery
Started after a woman was kicked out of Miss Beijing for having had plastic surgery, contestants in this Chinese pageant need a note from their doctor confirming that they have had alterations.

Miss Pregnant
We're guessing if any of these lovelies end up pumping out a girl the poor thing will be on the creepy child beauty pageant circuit the day she is able to stand upright.

Miss Subway
Between 1941 and 1976 Miss Subway was a New York City mass transit staple, with commuters voting on a group of contenders whose posters and biographies were placed inside of subway cars. It was brought back as a one-off pageant in 2004.

That is a beauty queen? You mean drag queen? That is the most beautiful woman in Maryland? Is she related to the judging panel?

I went to school with her is HS and she was a bully.. She was rude and inconsiderate to people. It's no surprise that she got arrested for hitting someone. But, this is what America chooses as their representation of women. God-for-sake they should pick someone with half a brain! I can't help but laugh in that I know what she put people through in our school and now karma is kicking her ass.

She is far from the most beautiful woman in Maryland, but it takes money to do the pageants and most Maryland spend their money on college and books rather than a fashion show.

I live in Maryland and I can tell you that the Pageant must have been a set-up because she is not winner material and there are far more attractive women in Maryland. My husband agrees with me(he would...lol). Other than looks, she must have mental issues that was over looked by the people involved in the Pageant. She is probably someones daughter who is important to the community. Don't kid yourself. Many Pageants are rigged.

To the person who went to school with this chick... Man, I bet you're shaking your head in amazment wondering.. "just how did she win that pagent with that platform huh"?? I know I would be. I went to school with a girl who was in the Miss America Pagent and I've got to say, she was one of the sweetest girls I've ever known. Sadly, she didn't win but she sure did make not only our State proud, she made our City proud!! And yes, you're right, Karma is a bitch and it ALWAYS comes back to get you. It may take a week, it may take a year, it may even take a few years but in the end, it ALWAYS does!! Anti-Bullying??? Come on chick. What in the hell did you think you were doing the night you hit that lady?? You were BULLYING her because she had your man who wasn't your man ANYMORE!!! What a pathetic lil girl you are!!! Go hide because you'll never live this one down, that's for damn sure.... LOL Peace

Wow...I just saw on youtube there are allegations that in 1999 a man gave Barak Obama a blowjob in a limo and in a hotel room and the man supplied him with crack cocaine. The guy sounded convincing....even challenged Obama to take a lie detector test. Why is the media not all over this story? Either confirm it as a hoax or as factual, either way they should be all over it.

She is a 22 year old attractive woman. Why is she bothering with someone whom she is not married to and is cheating on her? She can have any man she wants.

The article said she was 22. When I saw the picture, I thought it was a 48 year old ex-beauty queen. I hope Maryland doesn't have hopes to win Miss USA.

SHAWN, YOU ARE SUCH A LIAR. SADLY, ANOTHER NOBAMA'S SHEEP, LIKE YOU NEED'S TO USE THE INTERNET TO SPREAD LIES BECAUSE YOU DON'T HAVE ENOUGH CONFIDENCE IN NOBAMA..... Why is it that such a big percentage of Republican bloggers are so damn illiterate? The obvious guess is that the stupid are attracted to other ignoramuses and their stupid ways.
