At the Queen Beauty Network (QBN), we are ecstatic to announce our upcoming original series, "Talk of the Crown." This series is not just another pageant show; it’s a dynamic blend of entertainment and authenticity, offering viewers an unfiltered glimpse into the world of pageantry. With a unique twist inspired by the Late Night Talkshow format, "Talk of the Crown" is set to redefine how we perceive and engage with beauty and fashion influencers and top leaders in the pageant industry.

Introducing Talk of the Crown

"Talk of the Crown" invites viewers into the glamorous yet fiercely competitive world of pageantry, offering an unfiltered and candid look at the industry's key players and latest developments. Hosted by the dynamic duo of pageant influencers Dani Walker and Luis Portelles, the show promises to deliver a no-holds-barred discussion on all things pageantry.

Each "Talk of the Crown" episode features lively conversations with today’s most influential figures in the pageant community. From reigning titleholders to renowned coaches, designers, and organizers, Dani and Luis bring together a diverse array of guests who share their insights, experiences, and predictions for the future of pageantry.

But "Talk of the Crown" is more than just glitz and glamour—it's about getting real. Dani and Luis aren’t afraid to ask the tough questions, challenging guests to talk about the highs and lows of their journey in the spotlight. Their refreshingly honest approach provides fans with the transparency they crave, offering an authentic glimpse behind the scenes of an often misunderstood industry.

Whether discussing the latest trends in evening gown fashion, debating controversial judging decisions, or shedding light on the important issues facing the pageant community, "Talk of the Crown" is the ultimate destination for pageant enthusiasts seeking entertainment, insights, and a healthy dose of reality.

Meet the Hosts: Dani Walker and Luis Portelles

Dani Walker, our Director of UGC & International Correspondence, is no stranger to the spotlight. With a career that began at 16, Dani has walked the runway for brands like Louis Vuitton and worked with renowned names such as Kendall + Kylie and Maggie Sottero.

The Concept: Late Night Talkshow with a Twist

"Talk of the Crown" draws inspiration from the classic Late-Night Talkshow format but with a distinctive twist. Dani and Luis engage guests in lively conversations that almost avoid the pageant world, only to bring it back with a suspenseful and revealing twist. This approach ensures that the show remains engaging, unpredictable, and full of surprises.

Expect candid discussions about the guests' personal lives, hobbies, and passions, followed by a deep dive into their pageant experiences. This format humanizes the pageant stars and provides a refreshing perspective on their lives beyond the crowns and sashes.
