The talent in group 2 was probably the better group of the night. Some nice talents in this group, headed by SC, CA and KS.
SII Group 2
AR-Digital safety. Very well-spoken, very effective at discussing online safety for children and teenagers. She really communicated in a way which I think parents would appreciate, very well done.
IA-ABC’s of bullying. I thought she was very effective, very passionate and sounded very convincing. She spoke about her own experience and gave positive examples. I wrote down that she was one of the better speakers in this group, so I suppose it was no surprise that she won last night.
NV-Breaking Down the Fourth Wall-she was the best in this group, in my opinion. She spoke very eloquently about valuing one’s self and for motivating children. She spoke with a positive tone in her voice and was very convincing.
NH-Mind Your Mental Health. She was very genuine and mentioned that she partnered with NAMI, which is a great organization. She also gave a simple relaxation exercise and related it to each person. Very thoughtful and good communicator.
NE-Very inspiring about her own experience, spoke about testifying about abuse at the age of 8. I thought she was very confident, positive, and inspiring. One of the better of the group.
WA-Making the Invisible Visible. She explained her platform well about her own health struggles and how to support those living with chronic disabilities. She sounded slightly rehearsed but overall, a nice job.
AK-Sexual assault advocacy. Very well-spoken, very articulate. She gave a clear plan about how she would proceed, good details.
OH-Project Purpose. This is a motivational and success program. She sounded very positive and really sold her platform.
OR-Operation Joy. Spoke eloquently about her partnership with American Cancer Society and her own work, motivated by her cousin who died of brain cancer. Very well-spoken.
Talent Group 2
WV-monologue, It’s Not About Dirt. I really liked it, it tied in her platform with a metaphor for life. It was original and positive. She spoke with confidence. I really appreciated it. 7
KS-lyrical dance to It Doesn’t Hurt. She had a lot of energy, a lot of emotion tied to the song. Very good movements as well. I would give it a 7.
MT-Energetic dance to Runaway. She is one of my pleasant surprises this week as well, and she did herself proud with this song. A lot of energy, she had some good moves, very entertaining. I would give it a 6.75.
FL-lyrical dance to You Will Be Found. Beautiful costume, and she looked lovely onstage. Her performance wasn’t as strong as KS but I would call it average good. In 5.5 to 6 range.
NC-This Is The Moment. It was a nice enough performance, but I am not sure if it was in the right key? She has some pipes, that is obvious. The song ended very nicely. I would give it a 6.5 based on ability.
SC-This is not an affront to Jill at all, but her introduction video was without loads of makeup, especially eye makeup. She is very pretty and lovely without all of it. This week she has worn a lot of dark makeup and she really doesn’t need it. She’s just as lovely without it. That being said, her singing was lovely as well. She sang Someday One Day, and she has a very good voice. I would have given in a solid 7.75, one of the better in this group tonight. I really enjoyed her performance.
PA-Lyrical dance to Someone’s Family. This was a nice performance. I never heard this song before but it really made me choke up. She dedicated it to her late brother, it was very touching. Nice overall. 6.5
CA-Fantasie Impromptu. Beautiful emerald dress (before the lights went on). This song I have always heard played well, Catherine was no exception. I would give it a solid 7.75.
Red Carpet 2
AR-Plain white gown with silver accents and silver accessories. Nice onstage presence. She answered her question well regarding her platform. Nice overall.
IA-She was confident in gown, blew kisses towards contestants. She gave a very good answer regarding good boundaries between teachers and students.
NV-Beautiful in light purple, nice stage presence. Very strong answer regarding online presence. She related it back to her LGBTQIA experience and how it would bridge the gap. Very confident. Come on judges! She’d be fantastic!
NH-Gown was somewhat subdued but nice. Good answer to resources for mental health in schools.
NE-Nice in gown, some stage presence. Very genuine answer regarding her criticism after winning Miss NE. She related it back to her own expectations.
WA-She looked very nice in her gown, had very nice stage presence. Her answer to her question was really good. She was practical, talked about her own success about selling things in her career and building partnerships. Very well done. I liked her confidence.
AK-Very lovely in red, though she had a bit trouble walking. Good answer regarding lower income contestants, told about how Miss Alaska contestants share things. Very kind, and it says a lot about the Miss Alaska organization. Very well done.
OH-Very nice presence in gown. She does have a good presence onstage. One of the better gowns in this group. Plain white with cape. Her answer about diversity rang a bit short, though. She said by offering diverse prizes or something to that effect. It just didn’t make sense.
OR-she is really cute, all smiles in her gown presentation. Good answer to her question about how to build a national cancer network, explained how it worked in a timely manner.
