Miss Nebraska Megan Swanson was sitting getting ready to watch the Evening Wear section of the Miss America competition, when she did something that made her the winner of the night.
As Chris Harrison said that the judges were looking for “personal style and flair”, Swanson accidentally showed us her corn field. Luckily for her not only did she have underwear on, but it matched her shirt.
Even though she wasn’t crowned Miss America, she is the one everyone is talking about this morning. So it wasn’t all bad for her, although I am sure she is feeling like it is.
Ladies, the morale of the story, is you should always sit with your legs crossed when you are in a short skirt on national television. I personally thought that all the contestants were taught that lesson before they got to that stage of the game. Guess not. And if they were, then chances are no one would be talking about the Miss America competition today. Seriously, did you know it was on yesterday? I didn’t until Miss Nebraska’s Husker made an appearance.
Who will Mario Lopez sing "There she is…Miss America" to? Find out tonight on TLC.
This year TLC change things up with "Countdown Down to Miss America" where we got to vote 4 of the Top 15. And tonight at 8p on TLC we will find out of one of those four will bring home the crown!!!
What is up or should I say down with two Miss USA contestants falling on their a$$es two years in a row? I love how Miss USA 2008 handled by clapping, gotta respect that! Can’t wait to see the third fall be a charm at next year’s Miss Universe competition!
Did anyone else see that Designing Women episode when Suzanne Sugarbaker finds out she really was not Miss Georgia and has to give her crown back like 20 years later. Then during the ceremony it comes out that the woman who won was banging the Judges and Suzanne gets to keep her corwn. I wonder if that is what the runner-up is wishing for? Seriously I would be pissed if I was given the crown and then some accountant messed up and I was told to give it back. That totally stinks.
WorldNetDaily asked Miss Teen South Carolina WTF she was thinking when she answered that question with that response and she said:
“I was never much of a pageant girl,” Lauren Caitlin Upton said in an interview published just hours before Friday’s competition. “When I first started pageants, I wanted to build up my communication skills for interviews for college and for jobs. I was determined to prove I was able to accomplish anything I put my mind to.”
The ironic comments were recorded in her local paper, the State of Columbia, S.C., which she told for today’s edition that she “completely misunderstood” the geography question posed to her.
“I didn’t do anything wrong. I wasn’t expecting [the question]. I lost my train of thought.”
Miss South Carolina Teen USA says she graduated with a 3.5 grade-point average from Lexington High School in June, and was a varsity athlete and student leader.
“Things happen for a reason,” she said. “That’s the way life goes.”
“I just want people to know that I’m an average teenage girl, living life to the fullest, learning from my mistakes and living life in a positive way, and that is all I can ask for.”
Ummm, what? I am at a loss of words as much as she is apparently. Oy. And as you can see from the video Mario Lopez was in just as much pain as us all during that answer, he said he wanted to help her but he is not allowed to talk to the contestants when they are answering the questions. I think that rule needs to change.
BTW if all of this is not painful enough for you, here the answer Lauren Caitlin Upton gave during the practice round:
“What is the first thing you will do when you get home?”
“Eat me some hamburgers,” she responded. “I haven’t eaten hamburgers, French fries or hot dogs in three years, and I just want to see what it tastes like.”
Maybe she just needs some protein! Oy I can’t comment anymore on this because I lost a few brain cells writing this post.
