I, * , a contestant in the Miss Gay Louisiana America Pageant, do hereby hold harmless and waive all rights to any claim or lawsuit against: The Miss Gay Louisiana America Advisory Board or its employees, agents, distributors and/or assigns, or the Official Miss Gay Louisiana America Pageant (the “Pageant”) and its representatives (together the “Releasees”) arising out of or related to the Pageant and/or my participation in the Pageant to the extent permitted by law. I also grant the “Releasees” the right to videotape, photograph, sound record, film or otherwise use my name, likeness, image or voice in any television program, documentary or other film, or the internet or in any media now known or hereafter known or any advertising or promotion thereof in connection with or relating to the Pageant. I understand I have no right to and shall not receive any monetary payment for any photograph or recording (audio or video) in which I may appear in connection with or relating to the Pageant.
I enter all activities during the course of the Pageant, past, present or future, at my own risk and expense. I also agree to hold harmless from liability, the owner, employees and affiliates of any official site/location(s) of the Miss Gay Louisiana America Pageant.
I agree that my appearance and performance in the Pageant and all related activities shall constitute a work for hire. In the event such is not deemed a work for hire, I hereby assign, transfer and convey any and all interest in any copyright I may own, or have a right to, relating to my appearance and performance in the Pageant and its related activities, past, present or future to The Miss Gay Louisiana America Advisory Board, it successors and/or assigns.
I understand the winner and first alternate agree to represent the title of Miss Gay Louisiana America at the national Miss Gay America pageant during this current pageant year. Should the winner be unable to fulfill the commitment as Miss Gay Louisiana America, the title will revert to the first alternate or other representative chosen by The Miss Gay Louisiana America Advisory Board, its successors and/or assigns.
I attest that my stage name and performances do not infringe on any copyright protections. In the event it is deemed that such infringement is evident, I will immediately remedy such infringement, including but not limited to modification of my stage name and performance. I understand that I am solely responsible for claims against me for copyright infringement and that The Miss Gay Louisiana America Advisory Board, its successors and/or assigns shall be held harmless.
A promoter or 2 Queens and a Princess, LLC may prohibit a person from competing for any reason in a specific preliminary. I further agree that any of my actions which are deemed as demeaning to the crown (as determined by the owners of the Miss Gay Louisiana America pageant or 2 Queens and a Princess, LLC) or the Pageant during my year as titleholder or any alternate placements thereof are sufficient grounds for immediate and complete revocation of the title, the crown, all prize monies (un-disbursed or disbursed,) and all performance fees received as Miss Gay Louisiana America. I agree to honor the ruling of the owners of the Miss Gay Louisiana America pageant as the final deciding authority. I further agree I will abide by and be held accountable to follow the “Standards of Conduct for Titleholders” (further defined in various publications including but not limited to The Promoters Handbook, The Miss Gay Louisiana America Job Description Summary, The Miss Gay Louisiana America Contract, The Entertainer/Emcee Regulations, and other standards as demanded by The Miss Gay Louisiana America Advisory Board, it successors and/or assigns, as adopted for use by the Miss Gay America Pageant system. I further acknowledge that I have read, understand and agree to abide by the contestant regulations and information noted in the Miss Gay Louisiana America Job Description Summary, Promoters Handbook or any other publication made available by The Miss Gay Louisiana America Advisory Board. Likewise, I will sign a contract, to validate my “work for hire” employment with the Miss Gay Louisiana America pageant system. I further acknowledge that there will be no disbursement of prize money or awards and that my reign, as Miss Gay Louisiana America, will not officially commence, until the contract has been executed by the Promoter. While this Agreement generally speaks to the winner of the said pageant, I further acknowledge that regardless of my placement in the pageant, I understand that all rules and regulations apply to me, as applicable.
This agreement may be assigned by The Miss Gay Louisiana America Advisory Board and/or the Pageant to any third party. This agreement shall apply to all past, present and future performance with the Miss Gay Louisiana America pageant system.
