That bow on miss Mississippi belongs on the hood of a car
Miss Hawaii could have won Miss USA had she gone that route.
Mississippi or Missouri should have won. Sapp has always looked sleazy and Marisol Montalvo had talent, but was unattractive.
Isnt this actually1991 top 10 not 92 ?
They all look like stepford wives. So damm uptight.
I think Miss Kansas nailed the evening gown part, but her talent left a lot to be desired.
I think Miss Missouri looks like a brunette Melanie Griffith
Long Live Bert Parks!!!!
RIP Bert Parks
Long Live Miss America!!!!
this is NOT seen as a beauty pageant, nor does it bill itself as one; rather is is a scholarship contest; if it were merely a beauty pageant, why then would they have a talent portion? just my opinions; i completely respect your right to your opinion.
Wow, did anyone else notice the really tall contestant in the glittery black dress in the background, either she's 7 foot or all the other contestants are really short.
These were the days when women from all states didn't look all the same and generic. Nowadays, they all seem to have the same body and face right?
Carolyn Sapp (Miss Hawaii) is my cousin!!!
Glad they didnt keep this tradition of going right into Evening Gown competition…………strips the excitement right out of making the top ten………..esp. w/this music.
Kim Parrish of QVC and HSN fame was Miss West Virginia for 92.
@vinceplano She's in the background and not in the top ten.
@vinceplano She was a finalist a year earlier…
I know who Miss Nebraska was here and I think I spotted her. Her name now Natalie Tysdal of "KWGN/KDVR news in Denver"!
@vinceplano It was the year after this one.
@latinoguy Miss Hawaii 1969, Sheryl Hung Lan Lokelani Akaka, was a top ten finalist the year Pam Eldred won, which, by the way, was 1970, NOT 1971
@latinoguy PATRICIA Lei Anderson was 4th runner-up in 1962….Penny Lee Rudd, Miss Texas, was 2nd runner-up…..Susan Dee Pickering, Miss Hawaii 1963, was 2nd runner-up, but she was not asian…..
Granted, it wasn't the best talent ever presented but it wasn't that bad.
Actually that was 1969….and the first Asian to place was in 1962, fourth runner-up to Jackie Mayer
I worked in the Atlantic City Convention Center for many years during pageant week and was there when Carolyn Sapp, Miss Hawaii won. Great show!
Evening gown scores (IMO):
Missouri – 8
Mississippi – 9
Washington – 4
Texas – 5
New York – 5
Kansas – 7
Louisiana – 6
North Carolina – 7
Iowa – 8
Hawaii – 8
When she walked out in that gown, I knew she would win – look how regal and absolutely gorgeous she is. Her talent was ok, passable – sexy and entertaining and better than NC, LA, TX in the top 10, so given that this is a beauty pageant – let the most beautiful girl win – plus she was charming and as we found out later – courageous.
What stupid thing to do. To combine the evening gown competition with the annoucement of the top 10…made no sense at all!
