| ~WAMPAS Baby Stars~ |
WAMPAS stands for Western Association of Motion Picture Advertisers in the United States. It was an
association that honored 13 women each year whom they believe to be promising newcomers to the
motion picture world. WAMPAS awards were handed out from 1922 to 1934 (with the exception of
1930 & 1933) at a party called the "WAMPAS frolic." WAMPAS stars received extensive media
coverage. WAMPAS awards stopped due to pressure from the major studios, worried that WAMPAS
may exert too much control over their stars.
