A beauty pageant or beauty contest is a competition that has traditionally focused on judging and ranking the physical attributes of contestants. Pageants have now evolved to include other criteria, such as personality, intelligence, talent, character, causes, and charitable involvement, through closed-door interviews with judges, or the conventional question-and-answer round(s) in the finals. The term "beauty pageant" originally refers to the Big Four international beauty pageants.{{cite news |date=2004-10-25 |title=Miss Earth 2004 beauty pageant |url=http://www.chinadaily.com.cn/english/doc/2004-10/25/content_385531.htm |access-date=2007-10-23 |work=China Daily |agency=Reuters}}{{cite news |date=22 January 2009 |title=Brazil's Miss World finalist has her hands and feet amputated |url=http://english.pravda.ru/society/stories/22-01-2009/106992-mariana_miss_world-0/ |access-date=24 September 2012 |newspaper=Pravda.ru News}}{{cite news|last=Enriquez|first=Amee|title=Philippines: How to make a beauty queen|url=https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-asia-25550425|access-date=3 February 2014|newspaper=BBC News|date=2 February 2014}}{{Cite web |last=Pearson |first=Emma |date=2023-01-15 |title=Miss Universe to Miss World: What's the difference between the big beauty pageants? |url=https://www.thenationalnews.com/lifestyle/fashion/2022/01/11/mrs-world-to-miss-universe-whats-the-difference-between-big-beauty-pageants/ |access-date=2024-01-28 |website=The National News |language=en}}{{Cite web |last=Morkel |first=Graye |date=2019-12-10 |title=Only 4 countries have won all Big Four pageant titles - and SA is halfway there! |url=https://www.news24.com/life/arts-and-entertainment/celebrities/only-4-countries-have-won-all-big-Four-pageant-titles-and-sa-is-halfway-there-20200506-2 |access-date=2024-02-25 |website=News 24 |language=en-US}}

Pageant titles are divided into Miss, Mrs., Mister, and Teen, as well as international, regional, and national—to clearly identify the differences among these categories. Similar events for male pageants are usually called by other names, some are likely to be bodybuilding competitions.
