Beauty pageants are contests where women, men, and children can compete for awards, based on different criteria. Often pageants are offered for specialized groups of individuals: Plus Size, Fitness, Gay, Married, etc.
There are also Scholastic pageants, which do not typically place a large amount of focus on actual beauty, but rather on grooming and appearance, along with one's school grades, and volunteer work within their communities.

It is impossible to know how many girls are entered into beauty pageants because there are so many different pageants, and some girls start entering them at very young ages. Still, only a small percentage of girls enter pageants, and still fewer make it to the big name pageants like Miss America, Miss USA, etc.
