Last year, pint-sized beauty queen Madisyn "Maddy" Verst sparked outrage when she appeared on TLC's hit reality show "Toddlers & Tiaras" prancing around in a sparkly Dolly Parton outfit complete with padded breasts and backside.

The then five-year-old's saucy shake and shimmy landed her on the cover People magazine, with the headline asking, "Gone Too Far?"

That question could be answered Friday, August 17 at 1pm EST when a court hearing is scheduled in Campbell County, Kentucky to decide who will be granted custody of Maddy, her mother, Lindsay Jackson, or father, Bill Verst, who has petitioned the court for full custody.

"I've done nothing wrong, by way of being a mother, I'm a great mother," Jackson told FOXNews.com exclusively. "Because I participate in pageants with my daughter is not a reason to take my child from me."

Jackson claims that her ex-husband is using Maddy's participation in child beauty pageants as a reason for the court to award him full custody.
