Always trying to justify who won or who didn't is energy waisted. 18 girls showed up to compete. Maybe they each had their best night ever or maybe they all had their worst night ever. Maybe each girl was happy with her placement number, maybe not. Maybe the stage was perfect for her talent selection and maybe it wasn't. Five judges showed showed up and maybe they each were totally on with their attention to each contestant in each category and maybe they weren't. Scores get tossed out in every round for every girl. Not one of the 18 contestants' score wold have been arrived at exactly as another's because of the scores tossed and because each category carries a different percentage. Every pageant is unique because it is filled with variables from start to finish. Past pageants don't matter at all. All that matters is how the variables came together on Saturday night. At the end of all the tabulation Susanna was named the winner for this event. Her abilities are supported by her past wins and many accomplishments but even that doesn't matter. All that matters is that with the set of variables in play on Sat night her over all numerical score brought her out on top. Its the same process for every event. Either be happy for the winner whoever she happens to be or go start your own national scholarship pageant and run it the way you want to so that you can manipulate that only the girl want to win will. In this system every girl has the possibility to win at any pageant and some people just can't accept that notion. I am thrilled knowing each Miss Alabama pageant is a new page with a new story about to be written.

For the record, Mia didn't do a "new" song. She did her TEEN song.

Reading the posts about how one or two judges "score" contestants is so ridiculous! Susanna won talent based on the scores of 3 judges (the high and low scores are discarded). Mia won swimsuit based on the scores of 3 judges (the high and low scores are discarded) -- and so forth for all phases of competition. It doesn't have anything to do with the color of the contestant.

If you look at a girl as a "5" when she enters the room for interview, the score either goes up or down based on her answers. This general way of "fairly" considering each contestant as a "5" at the onset of competition is a literal way of looking at each contestant being equal when they begin each phase of competition.

And, for the last time please remember that there is NO place on the judges' form in any place for points to be given or taken away based on sorority, future ambition, religion, color, shoe size, or eye color!! The judges are ask to select the best "Miss __________" and just because the girl "certain" people wanted to win doesn't then it always seems to be a racially charged, low-scoring judge who kept the girl from winning!!

ENOUGH ALREADY!!!
