The whole family had mics on. Ollie had a "belly mic" because she was a kid. It was like an elastic back brace with a mic stuck in it. (photo by Djournal's Carlie Kollath)

The family walked into the business twice - once with the crew filming from the outside and the other with the crew filming on the inside. (photo by Djournal's Carlie Kollath)

TLC’s “Toddlers & Tiaras” is filming in Tupelo this week.
The crew is following around 22-month-old Oliviana “Ollie” Steele and her family as they prepare to compete in a pageant this weekend in Atlanta.
Today, Ollie, her mom, Delia, her dad, Rob, and her 7-year-old brother, Dominick, visited Little Divas to get a French manicure and pedicure for the beauty queen. It was her first professional nail experience.
Find out how she did when the show airs this fall.
Ollie has been in 40 pageants, according to her parents. She started when she was 3 months old.
