The two lead actresses and sisters in real life.  In the film tentatively titled DAIRY GIRLS, they play two spoiled heiresses who learn  some life lessons when they are forced to get jobs.

This was Patrick’s fifth year as a judge at the Miss Canada Continental & Continental plus pageant. The winners will compete at the international competition in Chicago, labor day weekend. The contestants and winners past and present lined the stage to announce who will wear this years crowns.

The raucous evening is hosted by Amanda Roberts ands Sylvia, the drag equivalents of David Spade and Chris Farley. I advise you not voice your opinion as to which one resembles which. Both their gorgeous gowns are original designs from the Toronto boutique, Shkank.

Patrick is flanked by Miss Canada Continental Plus 2005, Keke Valasquez-Lord

and Miss Canada Continental 2005, Lola Banana, both received QAF season 4 DVD’s from Showtime

KeKe is overwhelmed with emotion when after 3 years in the competition she’s finally crowned by Miss Canada Continental Plus 2004, Tajma Hall. The absolutely gorgeous Heaven Lee Hytes waves to the crowd before passing the crown onto the new Miss Canada Continental.
