Welcome to the United States of Beauty Forum!

Contact the ModSquad for any Complaints, Questions or Comments.

The purpose of this board is to create a forum in which pageant fans, delegates, contestants, etc, can post and view messages which are DIRECTLY related to the Miss Universe pageant system. Our mission is to provide a civil environment where all are welcome - from dial-up to cable. Because of this we ask those posting pictures to be considerate of others and downsize larger pictures. Please use common sense as to the number of photos you provide within a post. we suggest larger numbers of photos within one post to be posted as a "click in". This is no place for continuous and unrelenting bashing - in a MEAN and INTENTIONAL fashion. It won't be tolerated. We all know that this may mean different things to different people, so let's just use some common sense here. It's one thing to not like someone and say so, it's another to CONTINUALLY bash this same person by using different handles. In addition, ads, banners and posts concerning clothing for sale, etc, will be deleted. There are plenty of consignment forums and other options for those who want to sell their goods or products. Finally, we encourage all participants to respect the flow of the board. We respectfully request that you not stop the flow of discussion with personal attacks directed at other members of the board. If this occurs, we request you take those personal attacks off the board and settle your problems with each other personally through email. We have several posters on this board who have a sense of humor that some may find offensive, especially if you are a first time visitor. Please understand that we do have thought provoking conversations, but there are some posters (BamaMan, Gladys, Miss USA 2007 Contender and the remainder of her family just to name a few) who are posting in a joking manner. All complaints are welcome but we request you do so via email. There is a button below to contact all the moderators per email. Complaints on the board will be unapproved.

If you have any additions, changes or deletions to these lists, please e-mail Stacey here

Subject: My daughter competed in a Miss Stated Pageant and she didn’t make it as a semifinalist. I was crushed. I suggested to her that she needs to get a pageant coach, so she had. As a mother, I want to protect my daughter, her heart and her feelings. She has the looks but to be honest, I don’t feel her resume can compete with the girls that made it as semifinalist. She’s 23 years old in community college and by the time the next pageant comes around, she would not be a graduate. She has little modeling and acting experience, works fulltime goes to school at night and still with her busy schedule she finds the time to work her passion, community service. Do I have it wrong? Does she have a chance? Many of the girls in the pageant were recruited; she simply applied on her own. I know the state pageant system looks for girls who look good in person as well on paper. Could anyone on the board give me some advice?

Shana is the best person to respond to this msg... -- Pageant mom, 16:53:11 11/13/09 Fri If she has the money to spend and she really enjoys it and it will not hurt her self esteem if she loses....then she should go for it. It is really hard to say if she has a chance without a picture or hearing her speak. For some it is a learning experience, for others a waste of valuable time and money. (NT) -- you be the judge, 16:55:03 11/13/09 Fri when I competed I only had community service, I didnt go to college and I frankly wasnt a great student, what system is she competing in? USA? MAO? you're bio will only get you so far, now that she has done one year, she should contact the directors and ask for any feedback, directors DO care about all the girls and will help them. interview is only a part of it.. (NT) -- s.XOXO, 17:22:05 11/13/09 Fri Thank you sooo much s.XOXO she is competing in the USA system.. I would tell her to call….exactly what type of info should she ask for? -- I love my daughter, 18:32:44 11/13/09 Fri Unless you are in Miss America, your resume really doesn't mean anything. Girls who are in school and waiting tables have won state USA pageants and done extremely well. It is all about the looks and stage presence (NT) -- fan, 18:57:22 11/13/09 Fri

HAHA this is so funny and cute and I actually do not mind that she has a guarunteed spot... She is adorable! And I love her yellow dress too:) (NT) -- CG, 19:33:43 11/12/09 Thu I watched this with my mom and we laughed like crazy. I really like this gown on Louise. When Tami walked out I was like, "what's with the weird crown?" Should have known Ellen was going to drop and break it or something. Think Ellen will ever host Miss USA? (NT) -- :o), 19:38:40 11/12/09 Thu What the hell is Tami wearing on her head? (NT) -- wtf crown, 19:39:46 11/12/09 Thu A cheap fraud....she looks sloppy next to Miss Wu (NT) -- ., 22:29:57 11/12/09 Thu State pageant systems would kill for this publicity (NT) -- wow, 19:37:27 11/12/09 Thu I know right! I think Louise stands a good chance at making the Top 15. I love Tami and really wished that she had won that night! I was wondering why she was wearing that crown! I think this is the 2nd Miss California Ellen has had on her show. I remember Brittany Hogan coming on because of the the sign language thing. (NT) -- Jake, 19:44:33 11/12/09 Thu What sign language thing?? Details please! (NT) -- madgab, 21:21:10 11/12/09 Thu It wasn't a big deal. Afte the 2005 Miss USA pageant, Ellen mentioned something about Brittany Hogan's signing during the pageant. She made the motions to say "Thank You Very Much" and said it out loud at the same time. Ellen said that it wasn't signing, it was just her saying Thank You Very Much loud. After someone pointed out that Brittany did do the actual signing, Ellen invited her on to apologize! It was cute, she crowned Ellen with a sash reading Miss-Understood or something like that! (NT) -- Jake, 21:40:09 11/12/09 Thu louise isn't an attention grabber. cute? yes. gorgeous? no. (NT) -- ellen looks extra butch with her new coiffe but i like it., 19:37:55 11/12/09 Thu OK, Louise doesn't need a guaranteed spot because she's BEAUTIFUL on her own, and I LOVE her dress! (NT) -- Apple Green, 19:40:27 11/12/09 Thu This has already been stated in the CA post. That is why no one is making a big stink about her being in the top 15. She is supper prepared and I think she should really consider the America system as well. (NT) -- I LOVE ELLEN., 19:48:02 11/12/09 Thu Louise cleans up well! Of course, they DID first show her at her desk. And who looks like they should have a tiara on at work? Ellen was channeling her inner Annie Lennox and seems to be getting more beautiful with age. And Tami was a good sport. (NT) -- M Back, 21:38:59 11/12/09 Thu I am sure if every one of the Miss CA USA contestants had the help of Ellen, they would all come very prepared to compete. Hair, make-up, skin, clothes benefits from Ellen have made Louise look good and she does seem like a nice girl but all that does not change the fact that the judges need to be looking for a girl who can win Miss USA and IMO, I don't believe it is Louise. Good luck to her and all the other contestants who did not have this super advantage. (NT) -- ., 21:46:01 11/12/09 Thu Don't hate me but I don't think she's that great ? (NT) -- Bluegrass Barbie, 21:47:30 11/12/09 Thu Nor do I. For all the lessons she has received from Ellen, she crossed her legs and was not sitting up straight. Pretty girl, but I don't think she is "all that" either. (NT) -- nbiap, 21:56:19 11/12/09 Thu She is very sweet, pretty. I hope they do something with her stringy hair. (NT) -- Wu Wu Wu Go gO gO!, 22:03:35 11/12/09 Thu Louise Wu for MISS UNIVERSE! Her haters (fellow competition) keep hating on....I'd be scared too if I were up against someone so freakin likable, gorgeous with the backing of the coolest woman on the planet, Ellen Degeneres. Yes Wu Can! (NT) -- Cookie Dough, 22:09:23 11/12/09 Thu Ellen should be the head judge AND the auditing firm representative that hands the results to the hosts on stage, and then we can all just skip the pageant entirely, and decide individually whether to add Louise Wu to our TOP 15 lists at Miss USA or not. (NT) -- Hell, she's judging Idol AND prepping pageant girls now. Just add it to her resume., 22:40:37 11/12/09 Thu These grapes are sour. (NT) -- ., 22:48:44 11/12/09 Thu K, honestly... are you guys for real that Louise is pretty? Let her walk down the streets of any Asian city and she will be considered very average. Very nice personality though. (NT) -- la femme rouge, 00:16:09 11/13/09 Fri I agree, state pageants WISH they could get this type of attention. And this is not even local, this is (more or less) international attention for Ms. Wu. I am sure she is a shoe in for final 5 - she is probally one of the few that is not worried about expenses, Ellen has paid for it all. (NT) -- *, 00:57:33 11/13/09 Fri* Did Oprah Winfrey sponsor Rachel Smith in 2007? I know Rachel worked for Oprah for a few years. (NT) -- *, 01:00:53 11/13/09 Fri* Louise Wu for Miss CA??? (NT) -- I mean...people...look at her..she's like your typical asian woman off the boat....nothing there except the sponsorship from TV's man, Ellen Degeneres.....Pikake, 01:09:05 11/13/09 Fri Wow! Talk about racist! Poster - your level of ignorance is just stunning. MODS - please remove this comment immediately. You dont have to love every contestant, but this board is no place for your racist remarks. (NT) -- Dimples, 11:56:39 11/13/09 Fri Ok, nothing against Tami, but what is she wearing?? Her grandmother's nightgown??? Again, no offense to her but who is dressing this girl??!!! (NT) -- Ali S., 12:33:50 11/13/09 Fri Louise Wu does not have the face to earn a top 15 spot at CA USA. Ellen has to get it for her. (NT) -- nope, 14:02:15 11/13/09 Fri DO you think it is fair that the judges have all seen this and already formed an opinion? (NT) -- thoughts?, 17:03:27 11/13/09 Fri

I know all the state pageants are a little different... in California during interview; how are the judges briefed in regards to political questions and current events?? In my homestate there were no political questions at all. what about CA????? [ Post a Reply to This Message ]

Enough of political questions already. The girls are not running for a political office, and many of them could care less about politics. Stick with superficial questions, please!!! (NT) -- dee dee, 13:35:21 11/13/09 Fri depends on the judges...I am under the impression most states let the judges look at the girls Bios, and really go from there, and all the pageants I have been in and seen, you have such a short amount of time, I have been asked everything from my BIO to political and topics if the day ..

i'm guessing no swimsuit competition this year? and what is up with the horrible music and format? or maybe its just me. (NT) -- Pageant Mistress, 16:13:05 11/13/09 Fri I thought Elyse was wonderful. Wish she were in the top 2. And my goodness, is that really Nevada's Teen USA at the crowning? Is she okay?? She's put on quite a lot of weight in a short period of time! I don't want to be rude, I'm seriously concerned. She also doesn't look too happy. (NT) -- Pageantthings, 16:14:09 11/13/09 Fri What a strong group. Tahnee Harrison and Jen Yeager are both strikingly gorgeous. I hope they both return. I think Harrison was a little quiet and subdued during question and answer but she's articulate and clearly well educated if she's going to be a doctor one day. Yeager I cannot find anything wrong with. Umemoto (whether you like her or not) is a very easy, eloquent speaker and looked the USA part as opposed to MAO with her styling in this video. Someone actually booed her when she was called as a finalist. How rude. Julieanna Erdesz is polished and pretty and although I really like her a lot, I think Harrison or Yeager would've gone further at nationals, but I still think she could do very well. Hated her gown though. Very unflattering. (NT) -- M Back, 16:14:32 11/13/09 Fri I wasn't all that impressed with the interviews or gowns of wither Harrison OR Erdeaz. The one that jumped out to me far ahead of the rest was Umemoto. Her interview answer was a home run and her gown fit like a glove. Gorgeous colour too, maybe because it looked green? Ha. (NT) -- Apple Green, 16:21:21 11/13/09 Fri wow a lot of great girls! Maureen always throws a great pageant and she transforms her woman amazingly! I was a letcia fan but next year maybe...can't wait to see the new winner transform being a MAO girl...will be fun (NT) -- s.XOXO, 16:26:32 11/13/09 Fri Okay I don't think Elyse Umemoto stood out one bit. In fact, of that STUNNING group of 8, she would rank in 8th place for me. She was itsy bitsy, tiny, small, with a really awful ill fitting gown. If we didn't know who she was, the other girls in that Top 8 would get more priase because some of them were Miss USA worthy. (NT) -- what was up with the rap music in the gown over views?, 16:39:21 11/13/09 Fri

Subject: Transforming from a Teen to a Miss
Author: Tanja [Edit]	Date Posted: 04:13:10 11/12/09 Thu Looking at the pics of Rachael Carollo I started reflecting about a subject...: What does it take to successfully transform from a Teen winner to a Miss winner? As you might know, I'm one of those who always have a soft spot for former teens. Every year after Miss Teen USA I look at the contestants and think "awwww... I want to see her again as a Miss". Sometimes we say about a teen that "in a few years she'll be a great Miss". However, not every teen manages to transform successfully. Some just take their teen looks to the Miss level, which usually doesn't work to well (ex. Rachael Carollo or Meagan Winnings when she first tried to become Miss Nebraska USA). Some actually don't mature but look more teen at the miss level than as a teen (ex. Brittany Acosta last year in Illinois, Tori Hall at Miss USA). Some were once beautiful but somehow just dissapoint when they compete a few years later (ex. Raevan Valadez and Brittany Tiner - actually they nearly look too mature now. And I don't speak about wrinkles but about the styling). And some get overlooked for reasons completely unknown to me (ex. Niambi Powell, Crystle Glidden, Serene Aandahl, Lauren Taylor, Brenna Mader etc. There are so many!!) But their are also girls who manage to look so much hotter when they compete at the miss level and who actually transform very well. Some who once had the cute teen look but then look like sexy, glamourous women. Prime examples for me would be Chelsea Cooley, Courtney Lopez (wow!), Aureana Tseu, Jacqueline Bruno, Rachel Smith, Amber Copley etc. So what do you guys think: What would you tell a former teen for her Miss competition? What should she consider when it comes to her styling? Should she wear her teen gown again? What about the make-up? And who, in your opinion, managed to successfully transform from a teen to a miss look - and who didn't (why?)? [ Post a Reply to This Message ]
Replies:
Girls who I think managed to successfully transform from a teen to a miss look are: Helen Salas (NV), Rachel Smith (TN), Tara Conner (KY), Lauren Barnette (VA) and Kristen Johnson (KY). Out of all the former teens who competed at the Miss level. I was really disappointed with Tori Hall. (NT) -- Sophie E, 06:34:00 11/12/09 Thu Great post Tanja! I honestly think the best transformations come when they completely throw out their Teen "manual", don't expect to ride on the coattails of their Teen success and completely start from scratch with both their styling and their approach to their on stage performance. The Teen comparison pages of all the former teens who return (http://www.pageantupdate.info/missusa2010/formerteens.htm) is one of my favourite parts of my site, especially as I started it back in 06 so you can see how girls like Lacey Wilson have changed their styling over the years. (NT) -- oz, 06:41:25 11/12/09 Thu Just continuing my post, some impressive transformations that come to mind are Serene Aandahl, Courtney Lopez, Ashley Phelps, Marie-Lynne Piscitelli last year, Annilie Hastey, Lacey, Rachel Smith, Courtney Hegl... There's just too many to name. Big disappointments have included Brieanne Bogart this year, Tori Hall, Kim Harlan, Helen Salas styling wise, Alyssa (sad to say it)... again, many come to mind. some hit it out of the park... Some stay safe in the middle but get lost in the crowd, some clearly try but bomb out spectacularly and some just don't appear to have tried at all. (NT) -- oz, 06:50:16 11/12/09 Thu Krystal Spurr just came to mind as others who blew me away... They clearly pulled out all stops, comparing Brenna to Tiffany Stroud in TN is a clear but case of effort v forget it. And looking at Tanja's list... I agree with most of it but actually thought that Amber Copley really didn't bring it at the Miss level like she did at Teen... Her gowns seemed unflattering and illfitting and she was a bit out of shape... I still thought she rocked but I think she looked best at Teen. Tanja like you I also prefer Teen USA and I just love to follow crossovers and spot trends... Something unusual is that FOUR Teen 04 girls have competed in different states than where they held their titles this year! And there's a girl from each of the 02, 04, 05, 06, &07 Miss Teen USA top fives competing this year. (NT) -- oz, 06:59:28 11/12/09 Thu I need to proof more when I use my phone... that should be Krystal and Brenna Mader as girls who blew me away ... And it should read "clear cut case"! (NT) -- oz, 07:02:36 11/12/09 Thu The girls need to look at them as two completely different competitions. What you need to win teen is not what you need to win Miss. It's two completely different animals. For example, Stormi. She just had that sweet energetic fresh teen magic. But that is not what you need to win Miss. (NT) -- n, 09:11:58 11/12/09 Thu Other girls that competed in Teen that continued to improve, though many would not know they tried for teen at all and greatly improved in my opinion are Beth Hood, Kelly Lloyd, Tashina Kastigar, Danielle Demski (I thought she improved and was robbed), Ali Landry, Shanna Moakler, Dani Boatwright, Lauren Poppell, and Susie Castillo! (NT) -- SanFranGuy, 09:50:31 11/12/09 Thu i would tell the no implants (NT) -- catalina, 12:41:37 11/12/09 Thu Tanja, this is an awesome post! Timing is another huge factor. Once you know you are ready to enter the "Miss" arena, you then need to begin to prepare and you are all correct, it's a completely different beast. I know of one '06 teen who has been patiently sitting back and waiting because while she loves the pageant world she knew she wasn't mature enough to re-enter that "Miss" arena on a lot of different levels. It's always fun to watch the transformations...some good...some not so good, but isn't that half the fun!!! (NT) -- Fan, 14:03:09 11/12/09 Thu Not every teen will win miss. This is a slippery slope, you might wait too long and miss some chances to win. Or you can win "too soon" Something you wanted to considar is if you are doing it for the experience and the most important thing is being your rep from state they just do miss as soon as you can so you will have more chances to win. (NT) -- catalina, 15:02:27 11/13/09 Fri Bump! I hope to hear more opinions! Fan, I hope that 2006 teen will soon feel mature enough :-) (NT) -- Tanja, 01:55:03 11/13/09 Fri

Top 5 would be: 4th ru - Rachel Law. 3rd ru - Brittany Jasensky. 2nd ru - Joelle Head. 1st ru - Grace Spears. Winner - Brittany Capps. (In Teen it's Amber Cohen for the win followed by Ashley Witt, Chelsea Smith, Margaret-Ann Carter, Megan Pinckney, Kelsey Cunningham and Ashley Gaida.) Beautiful girls ALL. And each would fare well in Vegas. Brava, SC. (NT) -- M Back, 20:06:37 11/07/09 Sat Capps reminds me of a softer (more ethereal) Lu Parker. Something in her eyes. Brittany Capps stanks of winner! (NT) -- M Back, 20:09:50 11/07/09 Sat I totally love Stella Groome for Miss and if not her then I see B. Price. Dang there are some stunning women in this state! (NT) -- sc fan, 20:12:10 11/07/09 Sat After top 15...who will make it past SS? (NT) -- ?, 20:14:07 11/07/09 Sat Capps, Groome. Price for sure!! (NT) -- Best Bodies, 20:15:54 11/07/09 Sat Can't leave out Vaughn and Law... SS is great (NT) -- lee, 20:19:07 11/07/09 Sat True that probably the 5 best bods in the whole group (NT) -- ..., 20:21:30 11/07/09 Sat SS will be between Vaughn, BPrice, Groome, and Capps (NT) -- awesome bods!, 14:09:39 11/08/09 Sun I picked fifteen and really cannot narrow it down from there because SC has some GORGEOUS contestants, but I do think Bobbi Bishop will win. My other top fourteen are Bishop, Capps, Chapman, Collard, Eaves, Groome, Head, Hickman, Jasenski, Joliff, Moorer, B. Price, McCall, Olvera and Smith. I do not know any of these girls and are going strictly by Headshots. (NT) -- beautiful contestants, 20:16:30 11/07/09 Sat Next to Texas, this state has the best quality girl in both Miss and Teen divisions. There are quite a few girls I can see winning, but like I stated a year ago, Brittany Price is my choice and if she wins, she will be my frontrunner for Miss USA! (NT) -- Dane, 20:21:34 11/07/09 Sat PIcks for Teen are Bradshaw, Cohen, Garrick, Hollis and Witt. The top three Bradshaw, Hollis (she just looks like a teen and not quite so made up), and Witt with Bradshaw probably winning. (NT) -- jmo, 20:23:46 11/07/09 Sat I agree, love her! (NT) -- she will be a frontrunner for USA, 21:00:45 11/07/09 Sat The girls are pretty. The photos are gorgeous. Sort of. Get real, people. The girls, while very pretty, are overmade-up, the photos were taken with filters and then airbrushed. I'll bet in real life, none of these girls look this good. (NT) -- Smoke and mirrors, baby. Smoke and mirrors., 20:22:13 11/07/09 Sat Price, Groome, and Stofell look like their headshots. (NT) -- fan, 20:23:58 11/07/09 Sat Disagree.... google some names and see what comes up. (NT) -- --, 20:32:21 11/07/09 Sat I think they look exactly like these pics, Lots of beauties this year. (NT) -- fan, 20:37:13 11/07/09 Sat B. Price is not well liked. I guess she is just cold and I can't see her winning for that reason. Groom just is sooo so. Bishop will be on fire as always but she does have baggage. I have not been a Law fan but I think she could do it, not sure what her body looks like these days. Where is Taylor? (NT) -- Jenny Price is one of the prettiest, just needs spark!, 20:45:02 11/07/09 Sat I've never heard anyone say that about Brittany, she is usually really nice, personable, and outgoing...I guess everyone cant like every girl! (NT) -- Good luck to ALL, great contestants this year! Cant wait to come watch the pageant!, 00:23:24 11/08/09 Sun I love Brittany! South Carolina will be competitive this year! (NT) -- SanFranGuy, 21:44:04 11/08/09 Sun I agree! I love her too, she is so fun! Would love to see her win, she is so dedicated! (NT) -- a pageant friend ;), 21:51:32 11/08/09 Sun Brittany Price is all about herself. The girls all talk about her when she walks away. LOL. On stage, all she says is...I'm a MODEL! Hee-hee...I'm a MODEL!! Hee-hee,,,blugh (NT) -- It's kind of sad honestly., 22:13:17 11/08/09 Sun You are very very wrong. I am a former contestant, Brittany and I are good friends, I've never seen other girls talking about her behind her back. It's really sad that you have to post that about her, because it's completely untrue. And I'm almost postive you're a competitor, and if you're talking about girls behind their back then hopefully the judges will see you're real personality, which is ugly. (NT) -- T, 12:05:11 11/09/09 Mon haha SHE DOES!!! lol remember last years on stage ? ''i had to wear like old lady clothes!'' she reminds me of Upton a bit. Price needs to grow up a little before trying to win Miss (NT) -- imo, 12:51:39 11/09/09 Mon But wait, You're mature because you're bashing a girl behind her back? Oh no, that doesn't make you mature, that makes you a very pathetic person. Get over yourself. Brittany will do amazing this year. (NT) -- T, 12:54:12 11/09/09 Mon Nice photos. (NT) -- ., 11:37:21 11/08/09 Sun Heidi Montag. Upper right picture. Too lazy to find her name. (NT) -- M Back, 20:40:46 11/07/09 Sat If you added about 30 pounds, Collard is very thin (NT) -- no way, 20:56:05 11/07/09 Sat For teen, if Whit really looks like that and has the rest, she is T5 at natonals material. Numbers are off in SC big time. Girls really hated that whole Cooley getting the judges thing last year! (NT) -- Sad, 20:59:20 11/07/09 Sat I love Witt sweet and stunning (NT) -- fan, 21:01:36 11/07/09 Sat Stella is a "pretty girl". "Pretty girl!" "Pretty Girl" (NT) -- The parrot ;), 21:26:12 11/07/09 Sat Tough, tough , tough competition! (NT) -- Lovely girls, 22:07:02 11/07/09 Sat I'm not trying to be ugly, but what was Kimberly Childers(Miss number 7) thinking when she sent in her headshot? She is so gorgeous in person with a great personality(and singing voice:D) and I know she has better headshots than that! (NT) -- Oh well I still wish her good luck and could see her making the top 15 along with many others :D, 22:06:17 11/07/09 Sat agree.... she is much prettier in person. I think Law, Hickman, McLeod and Vaughn are much prettier than their pics too (NT) -- fan, 22:21:47 11/07/09 Sat I second that! What in the world was she thinking? I did not even recognize her and am so disappointed! The three who really surprised me with stunning head shots are Bishop, Law, and Vaughn. They are my top 3! (NT) -- Good luck to ALL the contestants!, 00:01:51 11/08/09 Sun I like Law and Vaughn's headshots, but when you see them in person, I would never look at their pics and say oh they look them. Would not even know it was them if their name was not on it, especially Law. (NT) -- observer, 07:49:02 11/08/09 Sun I would say it looks like them...just a different look..more natural, not as glamous as most pics...But I like them. (NT) -- HD, 10:00:34 11/08/09 Sun Plus, if the if the girl is not smiling and the angle of the camera is not straight on, the look is slightly different...these are not your walmart photos....but not very touched up either. I like to see that girls can pull off different looks. (NT) -- Fran, 10:06:23 11/08/09 Sun Miss was hard, top 5 (or 6); Brittany Price or Megan Stoffel for the win. Both are so similar looking, they could pass for sisters! 3rd spot; There is something exotic and sexy about Jenny Price. If she has the height and the sex appeal she could take it all. 4th spot; Bobbi Bishop. Bobbi was my pick to win but after looking at her appearance photos, I am not a fan of the auburn hair or length at all. If she went darker and got extensions... basically looking like she did a few years back she would be my winner, hands down!! Bobbi, if you read this, it's not too late... PLEASE change your hair! My 5th spot; either Stephanie Vaughn or Rachel Law. If I hadn't seen appearance photos of Stephanie and she looked like her head shot and had the height she'd be my pick. She seems short and does her hair different and that is why I am on the bubble with her and Rachael Law. Teen was a no brainer, Ashley Witt. (NT) -- Just changed my favorites!, 12:42:35 11/13/09 Fri My break down of teen(Remember it's just my opinion and there are some girls I have not seen compete in certain phases of competition or at all) All girls are beautiful! -- Click in, 22:25:27 11/07/09 Sat You clearly KNOW these girls. What do you think of my choice of Amber Cohen as the winner? (NT) -- M Back, 23:08:08 11/07/09 Sat Love Amber Cohen! I wasn't crazy about her gown at her prelim, but her body is good and I am sure that her director has gotten her a slamming wardrobe! (NT) -- One of the best onstage interviews too so I am sure her private interview is good too! She could defintiley win this!, 23:21:19 11/07/09 Sat You don't like the prelim gown? (NT) -- ?, 23:22:25 11/07/09 Sat She won one of the prelims SC has(the one that was on King of the Crown with Sydney Lifchez), her gown would make a GREAT opening number dress especially with the theme, but I think something less busy would compliment her beautiful face better. (NT) -- She's a sweet sweet girl and I would love to see her represent our state. I have been following the SC pageant world for a long time and she is one of those beautiful faces(looks just like her picture!) You can see her candid at mandmproductions.net, 23:27:12 11/07/09 Sat what do you think girl will wear for opening this year? (NT) -- ?, 23:30:16 11/07/09 Sat Probably a lot of yellows, oranges, golds and metallics. (NT) -- Can't wait to see!, 23:36:37 11/07/09 Sat costume type opening attire or EG's? (NT) -- ?, 23:38:24 11/07/09 Sat A little bit of both. A lot of SC girls go all out with their opening numbers. (NT) -- Does anybody know if the Louisiana pageant pictures are up yet?, 23:42:26 11/07/09 Sat LA had more gowns in opening number (NT) -- ., 00:24:19 11/08/09 Sun Looks like she took her crowning candid now so click in for another one. -- Click in, 23:33:11 11/07/09 Sat My break down of miss(Remember it's just my opinion and there are some girls I have not seen compete in certain phases of competition or at all) All girls are beautiful! -- Click in, 22:40:06 11/07/09 Sat looks like a lot of consistent girls ... may come down to private interview, will that be one on one or panel? (NT) -- ?, 22:53:47 11/07/09 Sat I heard that it was one on one in Louisiana. (NT) -- I hope so. That way the judges get to know the girls on a more personal level, 23:45:57 11/07/09 Sat There are about a dozen in Miss and a dozen in Teen that I like....that is unheard of! I hope these girls look like their pictures. This seems to be the most competitive state to date! (NT) -- Illini, 22:57:16 11/07/09 Sat I know right. these girls are just knock outs! (NT) -- I would hate to judge, 23:13:02 11/07/09 Sat Teen-Hillary Bradshaw, Miss-Brittany Price (NT) -- WOW SC!!, 00:12:22 11/08/09 Sun Grace Spears (NT) -- SanFranGuy , 00:27:14 11/08/09 Sun Grace Spears is seriously stunning. She has the most beautifully shaped face. I couldn't decide between she and Capps but I'd be happy with either. They'd both be instant USA contenders. (NT) -- M Back, 00:58:10 11/08/09 Sun both of these girls have beautifu headshots but look nothing like them in person. Photoshopped. (NT) -- scfan, 07:20:33 11/08/09 Sun I agree that they both have beautiful (although heavily photoshopped) headshots, but Grace at least is over 5 feet tall. Capps is one of, if not THE, shortest contestant in the pageant. (NT) -- I can't help thinking that will hurt her., 07:33:31 11/08/09 Sun I did not recognize Grace in her headshot. She does not look like it at all, (NT) -- .., 07:35:16 11/08/09 Sun Have you seen her in the last 2 months? (NT) -- Cause this looks just like Grace, 08:32:03 11/08/09 Sun Then she visited a plastic surgeon cause I saw her at the Forum and she looked nothing like this. (NT) -- fan, 08:37:49 11/08/09 Sun These girls are pretty on their own merit. I just think they need headshots that look like them instead of photoshopped out the wazoo! (NT) -- JMO, 08:54:04 11/08/09 Sun Nope no plastic surgeon, unlike every other contestant in sc (NT) -- Just natural beauty, 12:04:29 11/08/09 Sun Sorry but alot of girls have NOT had plastic surgery. She is not at the top in this group,,,sorry! (NT) -- Top 15 but no more than that, 12:25:34 11/08/09 Sun I agree, Spears is just out of this ballgame! (NT) -- just a NO, 12:29:30 11/08/09 Sun Anyone know for certain if Groome has had a boob job? I'm almost positive, but just wanted to be sure. (NT) -- ., 22:11:30 11/11/09 Wed she does not have a boob job! (NT) -- i know for a fact!, 10:21:59 11/12/09 Thu Nope she is a good friend and she actually hates the fact she is larger chested. Mainly because people always make comments or make assumptions. You can just imagine what high school was like. She has not had to pay for hers and you can tell in swimsuit. (NT) -- a friend, 15:50:20 11/12/09 Thu This is a beautiful picture of Grace! (NT) -- she will do well, 19:53:13 11/10/09 Tue Great! I didn't know Capps was so short. I am now going to change my "road to" pick, because states have shown blatant disfavor to short girls (cough, Leticia Castro, cough, cough). (NT) -- M Back, 13:07:52 11/08/09 Sun True, M Back, but RPM just crowned a 5'6" or 5'5" girl in Louisiana, so perhaps they aren't against the shorties (NT) -- we;ll see, 14:04:18 11/09/09 Mon O.K I have a new favorite for Miss USA and she's photographed above. Chelsea Thompson for 1st runner up (yes, I realize neither has won the title, but they better if the state directors know what's good for them) (NT) -- Cookie Dough, 01:43:54 11/08/09 Sun Grace Spears-gorgeous-looks like Tara Conner! (NT) -- ., 07:05:51 11/08/09 Sun I really hope that Cooley does not have any connection with the judges this year. If she does, I think the numbers will go even lower for next year. (NT) -- Keep cooley where she belongs...in the audience, 07:42:24 11/08/09 Sun We will know by the out-come if she had anything to do with the judges. I hope this is an eye opener for Paula. (NT) -- JMO, 19:07:19 11/08/09 Sun I was just thinking that! She's what you get if you combined Stefania (current Miss U) and Tara Conner. (NT) -- 2 Cents, 08:25:29 11/08/09 Sun She does look like a blonde Sefania! (NT) -- Beautiful!, 13:10:04 11/08/09 Sun Actually in real life, she looks neither like Stefania or Tara. Her look is sweeter if that makes sense. She does not have the harsh quality of Tara in my opinion. (NT) -- SanFranGuy, 22:38:12 11/10/09 Tue I also like Kaylyn Sparks , as usual South Carolina is on point when it comes to having outstanding beauties competing for their state title. (NT) -- facts (the real one), 08:36:11 11/08/09 Sun can someone post a picture of the teens?! (NT) -- PLEASE, 09:10:27 11/08/09 Sun TOP TWO GIRLS STUNNING, BOTTOM RIGHT STUNNING. Miss Universe material! :) (NT) -- lovingthis06, 11:06:34 11/08/09 Sun Can't we just recruit 51 delegates from South Carolina for Miss USA every year and put on fake state sashes on them? I would not mind my state being represented by a young lady who has never stepped foot in it if she looks like the woman above. (NT) -- Cookie Dough, 11:44:58 11/08/09 Sun Yeah, too bad she doesnt look like that! Spears or Capps...just wait and you will be highly disapointed with what you see in real like (NT) -- oh well!, 11:46:27 11/08/09 Sun So who will deliver beyond their headshots? Not from SC and just judging by pics. (NT) -- Curious, 11:50:17 11/08/09 Sun Brittany Price and Stella Groomw for sure. I am not a fan of Mcleod, but she most likely will bring it. Other REAL contenders are Law, possibly Vaughn, and maybe one or two darkhorses: Olvera and Jesenski? (NT) -- SC watcher, 12:26:19 11/08/09 Sun I think Vaughn will come ready to win it.... she has an excellent body and great interview....I hope she does well. Also, think Law has a great fresh look and good body,. Alot of beauties in SC. (NT) -- fun pageant, 15:38:21 11/08/09 Sun Alot of girls will come ready to win with good bodies and great interview skills. It will be the one with the spark that stands out and there are several I could see doing just that. It is still anyone's game, (NT) -- sc fan, 15:44:05 11/08/09 Sun WHAT is in the water in South Carolina! Gimme Some!! (NT) -- Peach Kazi, 12:05:45 11/08/09 Sun Cannot wait to see who comes out on top with this pile of beauties! (NT) -- sc toughest group this year, 12:16:57 11/08/09 Sun . (NT) -- ., 00:47:55 11/12/09 Thu They have a good state photographer to do all their girls state head shots, I attribute some of the awesomeness of the photos to that too :) (NT) -- Looking good still!, 13:03:11 11/08/09 Sun it's not a state photographer that does all their headshots. you must pay 500 alone to get carter to do your headshots, then it's an act of congress to get your pictures from him. some of these are jeanna beasely (NT) -- bea, 13:04:27 11/08/09 Sun Love alot of the headshots. Great photograher....Which ones are Carter pics> (NT) -- can you pick them out, 13:13:58 11/08/09 Sun all of the five headshots up top are all carter pictures (NT) -- !, 13:58:03 11/08/09 Sun I love SC it must be the southern climate because they have so many beauties! I love the pics at the top especially the top left and bottom two. These are stunners! (NT) -- Midwest mama, 15:25:13 11/08/09 Sun Top 5 Miss: Price, Collard, Stoffel, Vaughn, Spears (NT) -- Teen: BRADSHAW!! haha, 18:28:19 11/08/09 Sun Price and Vaughn and maybe Stoffel if she has improved on stage, but the other two are nos. Look nothing like their headshots. (NT) -- ,,, 18:32:07 11/08/09 Sun Keep telling yourself that (NT) -- what ever makes YOU feel better! lol, 19:06:46 11/08/09 Sun True. They look even better! (NT) -- :), 19:07:53 11/08/09 Sun Whatever makes you feel better ha (NT) -- ha, 19:11:19 11/08/09 Sun Spears has lost alot of weight just still not my pick. something about her on stage is off for me but that is just me and I could be wrong. collard tends to show up way to tan and bounces around on stage alot. Heard she is nice though. (NT) -- jmo, 19:58:09 11/08/09 Sun I agree--Spears and Collard are sweet girls, but not sure if they are USA material. If Elizabeth Smith gets anywhere near the top 5 it will be a joke! She has a smoker's voice and she is not a pleasant person at all, she should never represent the state of SC...insulting and vulgar. (NT) -- At least Spears and Collard are NICE, and they work hard and never give up, I admire them for that., 11:26:51 11/09/09 Mon I think she's hilarious! She's not mean spirited at all. And as for that "smoker's voice", ever heard Lacie Lybrand speak? Same low, gravelly, SEXY, voice! Doesn't mean she's a smoker!! (NT) -- And she has made the top 10 before, which is close to the top 5!, 11:50:53 11/09/09 Mon well she is a smoker! and many people do not find her "funny" at all... (NT) -- she is mean!, 12:00:49 11/09/09 Mon WOW someone's threatened! I've competed with her and can guarantee you she is not a mean person. She is, however, very sarcastic. Sounds to me like she said something to specifically offend you. I think she's a smart, sweet, funny girl who happens to have a low voice! (NT) -- lots of bashing going on in the SC thread!, 12:35:57 11/09/09 Mon Who do you think the darkhorses are going to be? In teen I think it will either be Sarah Black, Ashley Cody, Kristin Kennedy,Raimey Pike, or Rebecca Wash (NT) -- In miss I think it will be either Kimberly Childers, April Hegwood, Megan Jolliff, or Carolina Moorer, 18:53:54 11/08/09 Sun Wasn't Cody the girl on KOTC that was at the mall that had never done a pageant before? But I thought she competed in SC USA last year? I am confusing her with someone else? (NT) -- ??, 19:06:40 11/08/09 Sun That confused me too. During the episode in a confessional she said something along the lines of "Most of these girls have done more than one pageant" so I guess it was just a misunderstanding. (NT) -- Cy has done wonders on her since though! She went from really cute, pretty girl to Miss SC Teen USA contender in a year!, 19:09:32 11/08/09 Sun Pictures of A. Cody last year at state and some from this year at other pageants. -- Click in, 19:22:19 11/08/09 Sun She has lost alot of weight since last year! (NT) -- She looks good, 19:26:01 11/08/09 Sun What a fantastic transformation. This girl CLEARLY has been hitting the gym hard and it shows. GOOD FOR HER! She looks great. I looked at the "before" pictures first and then when I hit enter and saw that first "after" pic. Out loud, I said, "WHOA!" Quite awesome indeed. (NT) -- M Back, 19:48:04 11/08/09 Sun My predictions: 4th runner-up, Leah Hickman; 3rd runner-up, Elisabeth Smith; 2nd runner-up, Rachel Law, 1st runner-up, Olivia Olvera; Miss SCUSA Brittany Jasenski. (NT) -- nbiap, 19:41:30 11/08/09 Sun Jasenski competed in NY in 2008. Was in the top 25. I think that is the same girl. (NT) -- ..., 20:41:22 11/08/09 Sun SC won't crown a state hopper (NT) -- they have too many real SC girls, 21:34:44 11/08/09 Sun THANK YOU! she wont win anyways... (NT) -- ., 21:39:38 11/08/09 Sun Way to many beautiful true SC girls for a NY hopper to be able to win (NT) -- jmo, 21:43:05 11/08/09 Sun #3,the fake lips,no....#5 the bad earrings and bad earrings a double no (NT) -- hi, 03:43:04 11/09/09 Mon Love #5. She has a great face, good bone structure. (NT) -- jmo, 05:49:17 11/09/09 Mon the last one and the second one are my girls. Go ladies get that crown (NT) -- jojo, 10:45:07 11/09/09 Mon I like the edgy girl with the short hair, but my concern is: Is the PRETTY enough to be MISS SC??? (NT) -- from TX, 11:01:10 11/09/09 Mon Unfortunately not really..I think she'll place really well, but I don't think she'll win :( (NT) -- jmo, 11:51:29 11/09/09 Mon I agree, her and Capps are the same...awesome bods but face is just okay at best (NT) -- not outstanding in the personality department either, 12:03:57 11/09/09 Mon I disagree. the girl with the short hair is gorgeous! What I like is she is not the typical pageant looking girl. I noticed her picture right from the beginning because she is different! (NT) -- Love her, 15:26:00 11/09/09 Mon Love the short hair too. Beautiful eyes. (NT) -- ., 18:46:01 11/11/09 Wed You can go to www.upstatetriplecrown.com to see candids (NT) -- of some of the girls mentioned in this thread., 12:24:36 11/09/09 Mon I love the 1st & 3rd girl! They're like the girl next door & the hot mama!! (NT) -- my favs!!, 12:26:53 11/09/09 Mon So many of the girls don't look like their pictures, some are much prettier. I am really happy Kimberly C. changed her picture and I wish Vaughn had used this picture as her headshot. www.facebook.com/stephrvaughn (NT) -- SC Gal, 17:27:03 11/09/09 Mon I love B. Price. Eveytime I look at her picture I love her so much more. She is my pick to win. She is just so gorgeous. (NT) -- I Just love this girl, 18:32:45 11/09/09 Mon b price looks like a man in this photo (NT) -- sorry.., 19:32:49 11/09/09 Mon Honestly, I would like to see SC get it right this year. After the cluster F last year, crowning a girl who's coach knew the judges. It would be nice to see a new face that can get the job done at nationals win. B. Price can't cut it at nationals, she is to rehearsed. I hope at least SC crowns this one fair and it would be nice to get someone who can handle the national stage. (NT) -- Spears is a great girl but might be too young. Law would be a good choice from what I know. Maybe a new face...the old one sure are getting......old., 20:26:43 11/09/09 Mon I agree. I really don't see it for Groome...did you guys see her on KOTK? She's still a kid...even the cute short bob won't help her imo. I do like Law (little whole some looking though..along with Vaughn-MAO feel) (NT) -- Maybe Stoffel? It's just too hard in SC!!!!, 20:48:36 11/09/09 Mon Vaughn can bring some sex appeal to the stage... she has competed in MAO, but she has transistioned nicely, Also, think Law has grown up in the last year and looks more mature...

(NT) -- major fan, 22:21:05 11/09/09 Mon Spears and Law are both the same age. Spears may be a year older because Law competed the same year Catie Upton one and I believe Spears had aged out.

She'll definitely have a top spot (NT) -- ..just not the winners spot haha :(, 21:11:45 11/09/09 Mon She has matured nicely. That was a sucky picture taken at 8 in the morning. Most of the girls pics were bad. (NT) -- I like her, 21:42:07 11/09/09 Mon Look at her stage shots! That's the hot Stella that I know! (NT) -- Stella will definitley make the top 15, and I wouldn't surprised to see Top 10 or Top 5!, 21:48:39 11/09/09 Mon stella looks completely different now then she does in this picture . that is a horrible picture of her!! (NT) -- she looks better with short hair, 21:14:05 11/09/09 Mon This is what Stella looks like now (NT) -- , 21:57:22 11/09/09 Mon OMG... I bet she wins SS in every pageant she does!!

(NT) -- ysl, 23:02:59 11/11/09 Wed I'm actually looking at swimsuits right now on Victoria's Secret, and it looks like it's one of the suits under the "very sexy" section of their site =) (NT) -- Ry, 02:10:40 11/12/09 Thu Isn't she a prelim winner? which title?

(NT) -- JFYI, 23:44:10 11/09/09 Mon gorgeous! now i feel bad for thinking my body looks great with 3 weeks left to prepare! lol. (NT) -- Pageant Mistress, 12:26:00 11/10/09 Tue Miss returners in swimsuit -- Click in :), 21:05:31 11/09/09 Mon These pictures (even though they are from last year) were very enlightening for me. I was going to pick Capps or that pretty blond but now it looks like Bobbi Bishop is going to be my "road to" pick. Her body is rockin' and she looks beautiful in gown. (NT) -- M Back, 22:12:30 11/09/09 Mon Bobbi is my pick too! I just can't tell whether her photo scandal past will hurt her. (NT) -- Hopefully not because I think she is SC's bet shot at the USA crown!, 23:29:54 11/10/09 Tue Miss returners in Gown -- Click in :), 21:22:40 11/09/09 Mon Bishop, Collard, and B. Price are the standouts! (NT) -- Illini, 00:24:15 11/10/09 Tue I agree!! (NT) -- ., 07:41:31 11/10/09 Tue Does anyone know why Tyler Smith isn't competing. She was my pick last year for Teen, and she is so beautiful. I saw some cameos of her in King of Crown so I thought she was going to compete this year. (NT) -- TXprettyboy, 21:05:19 11/09/09 Mon She's in FL right now. Heard she'll be competing in Miss FL USA next year. (NT) -- She's hot, 21:06:48 11/09/09 Mon In college in Florida, She'll win Florida USA in a couple years! (NT) -- :), 21:32:25 11/09/09 Mon Teen winner...right there! Hands down.

And I absolutely LOVE Bradshaw. She's beautiful, very teen and looks amazing in SS! (NT) -- Good luck sC!, 22:07:51 11/09/09 Mon I want to see Grace Spears in SS and EG. Someone please post. She's oddly missing from those other contenders that were posted above. I want to see what she looks like in competition mode. (NT) -- M Back, 22:29:38 11/09/09 Mon These pictures were of last year's pageant and Spears did not compete. I don't think that she has any recent competion pictures. She has lost about 20+ pounds since last year and I'm sure a good 5 or 10 since her last prelim so you really can't go by the prelim pictures (NT) -- She has worked so hard, I can't wait to see how she does! Now matter how she does she has a lot to be proud of, a complete 180, 22:44:29 11/09/09 Mon GROOME FOR THE WIN...!!! (NT) -- BRANDON......1st Runner Up to Mr. USB 09-10 : ), 22:31:30 11/09/09 Mon I like McLeod...any pics of her around? (NT) -- Reid fan, 23:10:14 11/09/09 Mon I agree with you i want her to win too! (NT) -- :), 23:30:27 11/09/09 Mon I don't know why my comment about Grace Spears was removed. There was nothing disrespectful in my comment, and in fact I supported her. What's up? (NT) -- SanFranGuy, 00:52:49 11/10/09 Tue the brunette in the last picture loos ridiculous (NT) -- her earrings have more personality than she does, 00:57:11 11/10/09 Tue Prelim Winners - Miss and Teen -- Websites....other headshots/pictures, 13:01:43 11/10/09 Tue I like the two Miss Charleston queens. Roberson and Bishop. They both have great SS figures. (NT) -- IMO, 13:28:20 11/10/09 Tue I agree! And I LOVE the Charleston Teen. (NT) -- MPK, 13:33:21 11/10/09 Tue Charleston teens in the top 15 I would think. (NT) -- observer, 19:23:33 11/10/09 Tue Charleston top 5; N. Charleston top 10 (NT) -- /, 20:03:32 11/10/09 Tue I think top 10 maybe but not top 5. Competition is way to tough!! (NT) -- ...., 20:21:55 11/10/09 Tue If Brittany wins, she could be my TOP FAVORITE in Miss USA 2010. Totally perfect and flawless. Well, the group is balanced........... (NT) -- Mexico's Visitor, 20:54:29 11/10/09 Tue Price? or A different one? -- hmmm, 21:20:37 11/10/09 Tue idk about price she kindof has a weird figure. high hips and short torso (NT) -- jmo, 23:03:26 11/10/09 Tue No, Capps. It's obvious that these pics are dressing with Photoshop. I need to see her and the rest of the Miss SC USA 2009 without this program and watch them real possibilities to win the regional title. Body, presence stage, height, etc.............. (NT) -- Mexico's Visitor, 23:08:06 11/10/09 Tue the 2 blondes left-side are so The Hills. The picture of Grace is the only one I've ever seen. I really like it. She's kinda sultry. But a bit supporting role ie. possibly runner-up. Rambles... (NT) -- e, 21:23:50 11/10/09 Tue Grace Spears! (NT) -- SanFranGuy , 02:36:39 11/11/09 Wed Tha is and OLD pic. Again does not look anything like the girl you see on stage, (NT) -- seen her several times, 05:51:09 11/11/09 Wed Her current photo looks most like her, and since I know the family, I can vouch that Grace looks like her pictures, (NT) -- SanFranGuy, 17:02:40 11/11/09 Wed Maybe top 15 for her this year. Too many sexy gals with the USA vibe. (NT) -- She'll do okay but won't win, 17:10:27 11/11/09 Wed I swear I thought that was Uma Blasinni. (NT) -- e, 17:09:23 11/11/09 Wed Found this on SC board. She is a pretty girl but is she pretty enough to be USA? (NT) -- , 17:19:54 11/11/09 Wed Slamming body! (NT) -- SFG, 17:23:16 11/11/09 Wed How many years has Grace been competing?? I think a while now right? (NT) -- madgab, 18:14:38 11/11/09 Wed when was that pic taken? (NT) -- ??, 21:23:08 11/11/09 Wed I think it was early this summer (NT) -- not sure, 21:33:03 11/11/09 Wed 5 months ago, in May I believe. She's lost weight since this. You can tell in her face. (NT) -- And to answer someone else's question about how long she has been competeing.....She competed twice as a teen and this is her first attempt at Miss., 21:40:41 11/11/09 Wed Even with weight loss, I just think she looks like the average girl next door. That is NOT a bad thing, just not USA to me. (NT) -- jmo, 21:48:32 11/11/09 Wed No it's not a bad thing. Her styling has changed alot since this pageant. (NT) -- I think that everyone will be pleasantly suprised, 21:51:21 11/11/09 Wed She has competed in several prelims, MAO and United States...She has been competing for a while. pretty girl, glad to see she has lost some weight. (NT) -- :), 21:57:03 11/11/09 Wed Just curious, does she have any wins as a miss contestant? (NT) -- wondering, 21:58:36 11/11/09 Wed I am not sure how much it matters. In Texas, many girls do not win prelims, and yet they make the top 5. Ana, Tahnae, Lauren S., Taylor all made top 5 without prelim wins! (NT) -- SanFranGuy, 23:57:28 11/11/09 Wed The sweetest girl you'll ever meet....but no i dont think she's cut out for USA (NT) -- sorry, 18:16:31 11/11/09 Wed I don't think she will either. I have seen her lately, and I have heard she us super nice, but I just don't see it. She may make top 15 but I think that will be it. (NT) -- we'll see next week, 21:54:51 11/11/09 Wed Don't we want a Nice girl to win? (NT) -- why not root for her?, 00:14:16 11/12/09 Thu There are alot of nice girls in the pageant. (NT) -- Pam, 11:29:53 11/12/09 Thu that pose,standing sideways and twisting your upper body looks stupid (NT) -- face front, 19:08:18 11/11/09 Wed I am just asking, I see girls with a little junk in the trunk do this to make it less noticeable. Do coaches tell girls to do this?? (NT) -- ..., 19:10:30 11/11/09 Wed Mike Mauney has been showing girls forever to stand like that. (NT) -- :-), 19:39:04 11/11/09 Wed thats how shandi's 1st ru,amanda,stood.looked ridiculous then as well (NT) -- face front, 22:51:30 11/11/09 Wed This is a great year! (NT) -- !, 16:12:02 11/11/09 Wed A gorgeous group of five (NT) -- If I was judging these 5 women, I will pick the 2nd one to be 1st runner up and the 4th to be Miss USA....absolutely beautiful......Pikake, 03:57:48 11/12/09 Thu
