We were happy to talk to Shae Shae Lareese – the current 2008 Mis USofA classic pageant winner on Episode 34 of the Pageant Soup Podcast Show. At age 40, Shae Shae came out of retirement to put together a fabulous package to win the crown.
Shae Shae’s given name is Edwared Mcneely. He is 40 yrs old and was born in the beautiful island of Puerto Rico.. The oldest of 4, he moved to the states at the age of 14 to Orlando, Fl to get away from the hurricanes and crime. His dad wanted all of his kids to graduate in the United States to get a better education and to learn proper englis. Shae Shae graduated from Oak Ridge high school in 1987 and started to work for Walt Disney World as a ticket sales ageant and also as PLUTO. He started coming out at the age of 19, sneaking into the gay bars especially the Parliament House. He met a wonderful entertainer by the name of Angel Sheridan who took him under his wing. Shae Shae was a back up male dancer for Angel. After seeing Angel Sheridan win all of these beauty pageants, he wanted to compete and took off running – he was hooked ever since. Shae Shae has worked as a female illusionist at the Parliament House, Tracks of Tampa and many other clubs. Shae Shae started competing in national pageants in 1995 and has completed and placed in the top 5 of Miss Gay US of A pageant, Miss Gay America, Miss National, and Entertainer of the Year. Currently residing in Laguna Beach, California for the last 4 years, Shae Shae is employed at The Ritz Carlton Hotel as a head server of a fine dining restaurant. By far his biggest accomplishment and most rewarding experience was recently capturing the title of Miss GAY USofA CLASSIC pageant which he touts as achieving one of the biggest goals in his life.
